1973 Martin D-35. Beautiful guitar. Had a couple top cracks that got glued and reinforced.

This 2017 Aleyas 2 point mandolin had some high frets and got a level crown and polish. This allowed for the action to be lowered without buzzing. It's a cool little instrument. Contact me for all your string instrument repair needs. I'm located in Lampasas, Texas.

1957 Martin D-18. Complete refret and leveling of fingerboard, replaced 3 pearl dots, removed and reglued the bridge and the cupping pickguard, new bone nut and compensated saddle, and gave it a good cleaning. This is a wonderful guitar and 1 of only 1,000 model D-18 that Martin made that year. It's a real treat to work on such a nice guitar! Contact me for all your string instrument repair needs.

1970 Guild F112 NT. This old 12 string guitar got a full refret, a new compensated bone saddle, I glued a crack in the bridge, installed a bridge dr to lessen the belly and bring the action down, cleaned it up, brushed some lacquer on the bare wood around the soundhole, and scrounged up a screw to put a tuner k**b back on. Still needs a strap button then I'm done. Contact me for all your string instrument repair needs. I'm located in Lampasas, Texas.

Another Martin with loose binding. This D-35 had loose binding on the back that got removed, cleaned, and reglued with canopy glue. I had to fit a small piece of binding to fill the gap create by the binding shrinkage. I also put a clear coat on the bare wood around the soundhole and cleaned it. I really like the mammoth ivory bridgepins with abalone dots!

Here's a violin I varnished. I used traditional oil varnish and it's been curing a long time. It just got set-up and is ready to play. Anyone is welcome to play it. I think it sounds good, but I'm not much of a violin player, I just fix them! Contact me if you'd like to play this violin or if I can help with any repairs. I'm located in Lampasas, Texas ✌️
