DiPinto does that on some, right? I thought it was them. There's some guy on ebay who will cover pickups or anything with PG material. Hide your pups--glue some to the top of a robroe.
don't do it!!!!
you will have to trash the body.
somone told me once that the f-holes on the old arliners/kays/ and supros are made like that becuz the router wouldn't fit all the way in the template.

it would be easier to buy 1 1/2 inch laminent lay it on a duplicator router system and match that body.
that side crack is nasty, and the only logic that i could find in anyone trying to restore stuff like that, i mean fully restore is if it was your first guitar or something.

I believe the f holes like that one are a stylist thing that goes back to the 20's.
interest dave,
i think i have only ever seen f-holes like that before on a harmony archtop from the late 50s or maybe even the early 60's.
ive heard all sorts of rumers that those companies used to share templates and machines.
it was like a big ghetto family.
