5 string Lakland Jazz bass with Aguilar OPB-3 preamp.
The customer wanted to install an 18volt Aguilar OPB-3 preamp into his Lakland Jazz for more headroom and tonal possibilities. The preamp (a very sweet preamp, by the way) requires power from 1 or 2 9v batteries (2 give more headroom than 1) and features a toggle switch for switching the Mid frequency bands controlled by the Mid knob (visible on the pickguard in the first pic). Additionally, the preamp requires 4 knobs, so the jack had to be moved to the side of the bass in order to allow for 4 knobs on the Jazz-style control plate.

12 string Takamine acoustic.
This guitar needed a set up due to high action, and the truss rod was already maxed out. No worries--a little trick involving shims, clamping, and some tweaking to the rod breathed some life back into the neck...so much so that the customer initially complained of too low action, which was adjusted but attests to the effectiveness of the fix.

Installing position markers on a rosewood fingerboard. The board has been slotted, radiused, and the binding has been glued on.

|
This Strat had a replacement neck installed years ago, and the fingerboard overhang was so close to (read: touching) the pickguard that it was lifting up off the neck, causing the highest frets to fret out. I removed some of the rosewood from the underside of the fingerboard, glued it back down, and re-levelled the frets. Playing sweet-as now!

I will post more repair pics as time permits.
