Members MadtownMoxie Posted January 30, 2006 Members Share Posted January 30, 2006 look for Shovelhead here in the forum. He has done some amazing stuff with refinishes both of his own and also other forumites. I was talking with him about doing a buds Tele and Shovel was very reasonable even though my friend 's guitar tech begged to do the refinish on his cannibalized '68 Tele. He did a really nice job but I don't think it was up to Shovel's standards. I fell in love with a LP Gold Top he stripped to find a nice flame underneath and did a sweet yellow flame on it. He would get my vote!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members jjpistols Posted January 30, 2006 Members Share Posted January 30, 2006 here in town - talk to Brook May's South - see if someone there (Thierry if he's still around, or ask the repair guys) can put you in touch with Elaine - she used to work in the repair shop and is an awesome lady who does great work - she used to rebuild violins and guitars to give to kids if you're looking at shipping it out, I've currently got a guitar at http://projectoneguitars.com/ and everything is going well so far shovelhead's stuff looks great, too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
