![]() ![]() The communication was outstanding, you are a pleasure to work with. I could not be happier with the way this project turned out. Many seek to attain your level of excellence in their craft, few achieve it. I believe you are simply the very best in the world. ![]() I would have no problem swearing that your work was original to the guitar if I didn’t know better! Don’t know what else to say sir, you are the best. I personally own 3 guitars that have been refin’ed. I’m 50 yrs old & have seen many refin projects, some by famous people, some by relatively unknown people. I love the photos, I’m really blown away by the work. I would like to say that your work is outstanding, I am truly honored to have you performed your artistic magic on my instrument! Just over the top! Thank you Gord from the bottom of my heart. You are a Master at what you do for a very reasonable price as well. The other thing people should know is there is no hassle or problem to send them to Canada. I have seen other guitars out there that have been aged and they do not hold a candle to your work. They have come out of their cases and back into the fold □ A Job Well Done. You have breathed new life into them and I can not thank you enough. You have vastly improved they way they feel. Made at a time when the Modern Gibson was on fire in my opinion. They were both great candidates as they were really good newer guitars. You really have a back for fabricating a vintage vibe for newer guitars and I have no idea how you do it. If it’s possible they are both better than than the Gold top you had done years ago for me. My Guitars arrived yesterday ahead of schedule with out any hiccups from our friends at Customs. One in particular said, “even Historic Makeovers couldn’t do work like that!” These days, the vintage parts are gone, replaced by modern repro parts, but “Goldie” is every bit as cool, and I’m still really happy with the job you did for me. Also thought you’d appreciate knowing of the compliments that have come about the guitar from vintage dealers who’ve seen her. “Goldie”, as she’s known and I have played countless gigs together, and after these several years I just wanted to contact you, and say thanks for a job well done. In fact, the R8 hasn’t seen a single gig, or even a rehearsal since the goldtop came home. In March I was able to bring her back home again, and that’s where she’ll stay. Last year, I traded her off to get a 2012 R8 flametop, which a full “RDS” makeover by Historic Makeovers. I had acquired all vintage parts for her, except pickup rings, and would take her to guitar shows, where even the most astute vintage dealers would check her out and be fooled by the quality of your work. ![]() In 2012 I had the pickup routes filled, re-routed and installed PAFs, as the P-90 hum was driving me crazy. Well, she and I have been through a lot together these last six years. Hi Gord, Back in 2009/2010 you refinished, relic’d and le-located the “Gibson” inlay on my left handed 2007 Les Paul Historic. ![]()
