Pre Cut Inlay Suppliers

[mandoglobal]

Hey All -

Looking for suppliers of non-custom precut inlay for mandolin peghead. Im already quite familiar with DePaule Supply (http://luthiersupply.com/home.html) and I'm wondering if there are any others that I'm not aware of. Looking for something a little different than the standard inlay (flowerpot, fern, etc) but nothing too odd or eccentric that you often see in custom work. If anyone can point me to a reliable resource, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.

You could contact Bryan England at ''Custom Inlay'' :- http://www.custominlay.com/ or even approach Tom Ellis who has a custom MOP inlay cutting operation separate from his mandolin building - 'Precision Pearl Inlays' :- http://www.precisionpearl.com/,

Thanks Mike - it's always good to know of 'alternative' suppliers,

We contacted Precision and had a great experience. They were very interested in establishing a relationship with my builder, Tyler White (http://www.whitemandolins.com/) even though Tyler was just ordering this one peghead inlay, they treated us very very well. Likely doing business with them going forward.

Dave did a beautiful job on my Goldrush’s T/R cover. Great folks to work with. Chris at Arches offers pearl inlay services and is another great guy to work with.

Hi, I'm Cathy, I work for Tom Ellis. I realize that this thread is a little old and you have probably already found the inlay for your mandolin. Just in case you or anyone else is looking Precision Pearl Inc. offers some nice high quality mandolin inlays. We can route the cavity, install the inlay, profile and bind the peghead. Along with amazing inlays we strive to provide excellent customer service. Feel free to give us a holler, we'll be here. 512-442-4941

Thanks, Cathy! The gentleman who originally posted was a customer of mine and we actually ended up ordering an inlay from you guys. The inlay was beautiful and we both were impressed with the quality of service.
