songofthewind Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Anybody here do laser engraving, or know of a supplier of said process? I am repairing a nice Tacoma EKK9 acoustic, kindly damaged for me by DHL (big hand for DHL!!) The headstock break is all but invisibly repaired, but the rosewood headstock veneer was destroyed. I have a new piece of rosewood, which I need to have engraved with the Tacoma logo. This is so that the logo, which is made up of tiny plastic letters, can be inlaid. See the attached images. Any thoughts, or advice re laser engraving? I have seen this done on a Telecaster clone on some American site, and it looked very good. I'm surprised it's not used more widely.

rmorris Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Web search gives quite a few results eg (local to myself) [url="http://www.brightonandhoveplastics.co.uk/index.php/4"]http://www.brightonandhoveplastics.co.uk/index.php/4[/url] although you'd probably want to find simeone nearer.
