Re: open and closed loar peghead inlays
Once again I think John has the right idea. This was a production shop and the instruments had to get out the door within time constraints. Having a stock of ready to inlay pearl seems very reasonable. This accounts for some of the "casual perfection" parameters which have been discussed regarding differences between Loars as wall as many of the rest of the production through those years.
