Scalloped necks done some years ago

* I don't normally do this, and I realize I never posted this here, but I did do some scalloping on my very own guitars some years ago. They turned out really good and shiny also (I didn't use any lacquer, that is the pure wood finished shiny like that)

I still have the sunburst one , bought in 2005 and scalloped later on

Deluxe Bass Big Muff repair

* Deluxe Bass Big Muff repair:

Changed the switch <the bypass one on the right in the picture> , and also hardened both ribbon wires on the PCB switch at the solder points because they were a little flimsy (I have seem these fail if the switch gets loose and wiggles around haha)

Epiphone Riviera P93 Custom Shop

* Finished work on an Epiphone Riviera P93 Custom Shop.

Did the setup, fretwire sanded in places and polished, the tuneomatic was replaced with a roller one, and the Bigsby stays way better in tune on a 9-46 gauge

You can see how the fretwire was before, grindy and tarnished, and I also glued in an insert as it came out easily.

C.Giant classical guitar repair

* Repaired a C.Giant classical guitar. The neck wasn't glued on anymore, I polished the fretwire and also adjusted the string height at the nut.
For such a lower end guitar it plays great now
