  • Upright Bass Restoration Progess

    Now the top, back and sides are all sound and secure.  Time to prep the neck for instillation of the restored finger board.  While I’m doing this I will also remove the old tuners to see if they can be salvaged.

  • Custom build Tele starts with a neck.

    A customer brought me this neck with a fun project in mind.  Jet black Tele Thin Line style guitar with this beautiful “Tree of Life” neck.  As the build continues and we decide on hardware we will update.

    My friend Greg needs a second upright for his gigs in Southern California.  He found a gem that needs some work.  I have it in good shape soon.  First order of business is getting top, back and sides secured.
