| Thank You to Patrick and his excellent work and professionalism. Patrick converted my D10 to a single E9 and did much needed repair work. He cleaned and rebuilt the changer, leveled and polished, removed C6 components, swapped the necks, cleaned and rebuilt pedal rack, installed pickup, added wrist pad, rebuilt and welded knee lever mechanics, and more. You get the idea. He estimated 2 weeks and was finished in 11 days. His price was very fair. He communicated with me via text and pics every other day. We are very fortunate to have him and his shop here in the great PNW. Good luck to him and his business. |

Thanks Kevin!
It was a pleasure to work on your guitar. I know guitarists that would kill to have a rig with that much authentic road rash and wear from the thousands of hours you have obviously put on your guitar. And what a great guitar to boot! I hope the functional restoration and rebuild gives it a second life as a gigging guitar again. Let me know if you are going to gig with it locally. I'd love to come se it in action!
Patrick.

We are very fortunate!
I know I'm going to make it down there soon. I have a half stop D lever second string that I can't quite get down to exact pitch before overtuning starts. It's right on the cusp and I can live with it. I think the answer is to make the 9th string engage a little later, because that's where the half stop starts. To get it perfect, I'll need an engineer 
It's great though as-is.
Separate topic. I never knew there were so many PS guitarists in this neck of the woods. I want to come see you play.
Best,
Jay
