Finish Repair

Lovely old Martin J40 in for binding repair: Luthiers love tape :0

Meet Diane. She has been with our customer since being rescued from a hippy house in 1970s London. She's in for new tuners, side dots and a brace re-glue: First dot going in Leo Kottke once said that anyone who says that guitarists don't use the dots is a liar :) Loose brace It's a squish to get clamps into tiny sound hole.

A nasty crack all the way through the top on this beautiful instrument. Glued, cleated and sealed. Some cosmetic repairs and binding...
