Finishing up a refret on this #exquisite @mcphersonguitars model MG-3.5XP #acoustic. Tech note: it is imperative to remove the neck on a McPherson when refretting... and it’s a bit of a #painintheass yet straightforward enough. These are impeccable instruments! ...

Replaced the #bridge on this 70’s D-28-S. I always re-rout saddle slots after gluing a new bridge so I can spec out the #intonation #perfectly on the individual instrument first. •

Just finished a custom intonation job on beautifully huge baritone acoustic. Per customer request, we fabricated new nut and saddle pieces with fossilized walrus ivory. Yes, that’s an option, and it is noticeably harder than bone. This was a complete spec intonation mod, calculating nut compensation vs 1st fret location, vis a vis Buzz Feiten offsets, and altered slightly at the saddle per my own compensation factors. Tempered tuning for guitar!

Check it out. This 2008 @gibsonguitar ES-339 just came in. We’re about to dial in the setup and intonation, then she’s ready for a new home. This is a beautifully flawless guitar, made when the 339 was being done out of the @gibsoncustom custom shop. .
