I’d worked on Eloise’s guitar before. This time it arrived in a very sorry state as she had tripped over and fallen on it, leaving the sound board split and caved in in several places. She feared it had come to the end of its life. But with a little TLC and some careful gluing and clamping later, I’ve been able to resurrect it to play and sound great again. She looks pleased with the result.
