Hey didymus21 ,
They look great , nice job
Did you get the tuners and buttons  from Stew mac or LMI ?
Does anybody make actual ebony buttons ?
Thanks Tom


I got them from LMI.  There are people who make actual ebony buttons (I know of a few luthiers that do).  However, then you have to deal with warping and cracking of your buttons over time.

LMI.  I know some luthiers online will make some with actual ebony, but then you have to deal with possible warping and cracking.
