SoundPost Restoration and Repairs Guitars:
I carry out restoration, conservation and repair work to all types of stringed instruments. Priority is given to instruments originally purchased from SoundPost, but I am happy to quote you for any work you may need done. My workshop is equipped to deal with virtually any repair, and I also sometimes use the services of selected special independant restorers where needed, to guarantee work of the highest standard.
Some of my conservation and restoration work can be seen in the Metropolitan Museum of Fine Arts, New York, the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, the 'Jimi Hendrix Experience' (E.M.P.) collection in Seattle, and I have worked for many other private collections around the world. I have for example worked on many original Italian and French guitars from the 17th Century, as well as other original instruments, including viola da gamba, lutes, and 18th / 19th C guitars of all types. I have also done work for some of the leading auction houses.
Bows: I do rehair bows, with special priority given to bows purchased from SoundPost. I carry out minor repairs, ie grips, wrapping, head-pinning, and minor frog and head work. I do not re-camber bows, and for this I would recommend the services of another specialist.
