I have had requests to post bench reports again(it has been quite a while since I have done so), so I thought I'd show you this little gem....
This one should be a challenge.
2003 R7 with a Braz board and an unlucky past. The owner claims that it fell down the stairs, but this sort of damage is beyond what a stairwell can do.....
Clamps are my best friends.....
Sanded, ready for lacquer. 8 pieces of mahogany between the heel and tip of the headstock......
Sprayed and drying.....
The dark areas are actually endgrain of mahogany fills in between the splints and the original wood.
We are getting somewhere....
Oh, GEE! I found a pair of nasty old warped 50's PAFs in a box under the bench. What SHALL I do with them?
The finished neck repair as the tuners are installed.
