I brought in my acoustic Dean guitar with a completely broken bridge--the kind of damage where the bridge had cracked and split right in the middle. Worse, the model is long discontinued, so finding a replacement bridge (or even a close match) was impossible. I honestly thought I'd have to trash the guitar. Chris took a look, and wasn't sure if there is any chance of fixing it. Since I had nothing to lose I gave him permission to give it a try, no matter what the outcome is. I knew it would mean a big challenge. Well, he did it. He carefully fixed and stabilized the bridge from the inside of the body, addressing the structural issues that caused the failure in the first place. The work was meticulous: clean, strong, and completely invisible from the outside. When I picked it up, it just looked beautiful again, and no sign it had ever been broken. What impressed me most was his willingness to take on a challenging, "unfixable" job that others have turned down. He turned a hopeless situation into a complete restoration, and the guitar feels solid and reliable again. If you have any instrument (string, wind, band ..) in the need of fixing or restoring - Chris is the man. He's very skilled, honest, and genuinely passionate about saving it. Highly recommend--the price was very reasonable, worth every penny. Thank you, Chris, for giving my guitar a second life! read more
