Does Anyone Sell Quality Neck Thru Blanks Anymore?

I think blank is the wrong word for what I want but I can't come up with a better one...
I have a hankering for a 12 string project and was surprised to see that Carvin/Kiesel stopped offering these a while ago. After searching I can find a couple guitar "blanks," but nothing for a bass.
Does anyone here know of anyone doing these anymore? I should have grabbed a couple while I had the chance!

Carvin was going to be my suggestion.

You'd need a real special neck blank for a 12-er.
Just one truss rod will not be enough to deal with the string pull.

If you find it and it'll work for a 12 string build, I may be very interested. Thanks!

I have bought a couple of necks from Penta Guitarworks in the US, very good quality. He has a few standard necks for sale on the web, but when you contact him he makes whatever changes you need. Good build quality and decent price, I think.
