ROTD: One of the more complex routing jobs I’ve had to do to get this Steinberger style tremolo bridge installed on a headstock-less Ibanez. Multiple templates, routing bits, dremel bits, chisels, files and sanding blocks were used to carve out the minimum amount of wood to seat the bridge properly. The tiny holes are where the screws held down the original individual saddle/bridge pieces.

ROTD: We were able to fit a Jazz and P-bass guard on this red tortoise shell blank, using them as templates to cut the new guards. The pickup routs and screw holes are finished, and the guards have been traced and are ready to be cut out.

ROTD: Replacing a broken truss rod in this ES-335TD. After removing the fingerboard and the maple strip covering the original rod, I replace the broken rod with the new one you see here. The maple strip next to the rod has a curved bottom matching the truss channel in the neck. Once installed, the strip will force the new rod into a curved shape that will straighten the neck when the truss nut is tightened.
