Dropped my 1996 Granada off to John while I was attending the Old Fiddler's Convention in Galax a couple of weeks ago. I had some buzzes and just wasn't happy with my setup. He did a complete setup and corrected the buzz problems. In the process of the setup, he cleaned and buffed the wood and metal. Not only does it sound good, I've gotten a lot of compliments on its appearance. Price was fair and reasonable for all he did which included 7 new frets, a new bridge, and dressing of the fingerboard.
Thanks John

John just replaced the binding on my 1974 Gibson RB 250 resonator. The binding was cracked and crumbling away. I shipped it to John from SC. He made the repair and shipped it back. I'm very pleased with the way it turned out and the quality of John's work. I was concerned about the new binding not matching the original neck binding, but John antiqued the binding the same color as the old that had yellowed over the years. I definitely recommend his work.
