Your videos are so good. Would love to see more of structural repair though. Finish work isn't as exciting. But generally I must say I'm impressed.

Noted!

[@EbonyPope]

@@harpethguitar Yeah looking forward. I mean your finish work is stunning don't get me wrong. But seeing someone painting is just less exciting than seeing someone dig into a guitar see the construction method or fixing broken headstocks.

Stringing Bigsbys is a chore; I’ve got Vibramate String Spoilers on all my Bigsby equipped guitars.

Awesome work, great skills.

Thank You 🙏

What was the action height after resetting the neck?

[@harpethguitar]

It’s adjustable with the bridge thumb wheels. Usually 1/16”-ish

[@superglootheband]

What size fret wire did you use, Wished you could have shown doing some of the frets.

Why didn't you fix that crack on the heel block?

[@harpethguitar]

The body or neck?

[@savedaz]
