[William F.Eden]

Thought you would like to see how the repair& refinish job went on the Parlor Guitar I was trying to get the info on some time ago.It sure has a wonderful sound. Bill.:""""""""""""

[Bob Webster]

Wow, Bill. That looks great. It's back from the dead. You wouldn't know that it had looked like a Katrina victim. I hope you're very pleased.

Cheers,
Bob

Well Bob I had a cuple here to-day and they saw it befor I started to work on it. And they thought it turned out realy nice .She thought it had a real sweet sound to it .I am pleased with it as well.If some one gets it and takes good care of it It should last another 75 years. I replaste 2 brases in the back reset the neck put a trust rod in radius the fret board fixed any brakes in the body & refinished it Thanks for the help with the info on the guitar bob.I had e-mailed Fokway and they told me if it turned out right it would be worth between $2oo. & $ 1000 I am hoping for $750.Thanks Bill.""""""""

[Bob Webster]

That's a ton of work for $750. You certainly have earned every penny of it.

Bob

P.S. Do you work on automobiles? I have a '94 Isuzu Trooper with 200,000 miles on it that I'd like you to look at.

I'd never guess it was the same guitar. Someday, when I have time, I've got to get an old parlor to resurrect. Well done.
