TNT, they are, but righty not lefty. And choice is rather poor. I bought mine from US on ebay. But there's something special with mine - hasn't anyone noticed yet?
There could be I suppose. Did you have the Floyd put on? The installation looks good. I only noticed one or two little waves in the cut lines when the image was zoomed way in. I doubt they could even be seen from a foot away.
Yeah it could have been carved more precisely but yes, you have to look at it from near to notice that. It's done by luthier, frets too. The only thing I forgot was to change the radius before refretting, I like flatter fingerboards and it took some time to get used. It's ok now and it's the most universal guitar I've ever played. Got a lefty Carvin DC400 that is really cool one and very comfortable to play and kind of comparable, but MM wins in tone.
