Who is doing your BRASS, now?

As luck would have it... I was about to begin an Alligator project guitar with a cheap Craigslist find (SX/Rondo 57 Strat copy - Natural w/Maple neck). I found it for $85 with recent setup. A good find. Now that Jack of Roses is out of the brass biz, I am left to scour the interweb... what a pain in the brass. So is anyone else now left searching for a brass fabricator? If you have found someone and they have a mail order business, can you post or PM their contact info? I suppose the most notably difficult pieces will be the control cover and jack plate. I can probably live without the stop tail and do something stock.
Gracias,
~Brutus

Hi Pete.
That is similar. The Agile is a different make- similar model. The SX 57 has a maple neck and even more Fenderish headstock.
