Major operations under way on the bench at KC Fret Shop! 🛠️🎸
We’ve pulled the neck to perform a precise neck reset and structural repair, ensuring the geometry and playability will be dead-on. It takes meticulous work to restore an instrument like this, but when it leaves the shop, it’s going to play better and sound richer than ever.

Check this repair feature out!

This is a Napoli Bowl back mandolin that needed some assistance. We replaced its missing pearl pieces on the side and repaired some cracks. As you can see we had to carefully cut out triangles to fill in those pieces. It’s now back in the hands of its owner and ready to make some music! 🎶
