What were Baldwin-Gretsch era Ode flanges made of?

Sandcast Brass. Intially they used the original foundry, in Colorado, That ODE used. By the mid-'70s they had a new 'pattern' made (with larger holes). I don't know where those were cast. There were a couple fires at the plant in Arkansas, and it's possible that the original ODE wood pattern was burned... Not sure. Don't know WHY they changed the pattern.

Linked by 35planar 7 years ago: Looking for an ODE 5-string neck, pre-Baldwin, dowel stick or no dowel stick, long or standard, tuners or none as long as the truss rod, frets, and wood are decent with no twist. I know, seems futile.
