Give this one a look @ PG fiber optics tut

Not sure about the US but in the UK unjacketed fiber is quite expensive (£1/$2 a meter!) i found that a better option was to buy a fiber optic xmas tree off evilbay and strip the optic fiber from that

New build headless 6 string singlecut This thread shows how I do mine. I don’t do all of the unnecessary routing like in the link above. Here is where I buy my unjacketed fiber I get 40' (enough for 2 necks) for roughly $10.00 including shipping. http://www.fiberopticproducts.com/Unjacketed.htm
