herringbone purfling

[Jack Dillen]

Does anyone know where I can get the correct size herringbone purfling for a1946 Martin D-28?
I am in the process of restoring one now and the top is missing about 2 inches. The stuff that stew mac and lmi sell doesn't match. The marquetry is not of the same dimensions.

Try calling the Guitar Maker's Connection at Martin. They may not stock as an item but might be able to either see if the company has some stashed away.
