Service Details
A full restoration starts with an assessment and a written plan: what is failing, what is original, and what the instrument needs to be reliable again. You approve the plan before any work begins.
We favor reversible, period-correct methods — hide glue, nitrocellulose touch-ups, original-spec parts — so the instrument keeps its history and its value.
Structural work covers cracks and joinery, neck resets and heel grafts, and recreation of binding, purfling, and inlay — for guitars, orchestral strings, and exotic instruments alike.
