This guy came in from Tofino, was looking to buy a new guitar because he was told somewhere else they couldn’t fix it (or wouldn’t) – they warned him a repair like this would be much more than what the guitar was worth.. so naturally, he brought it to our shop and we fixed it no problem.

We gave it 2 new carbon fiber truss rods (non-adjust but for extra support), new ebony fingerboard with matching vintage cream binding, a vintage bone nut and brass compensated bridge (both carved from scratch), fixed all the electronics and gave it a setup. No need to refinish it, kept it aged. The customer wanted to add a jewel light to it, so we installed an amber light to match the vintage look, with an on/off switch. The jewel can be easily changed to a green light instead, depending on the mood.
