She's back!
« on: March 03, 2018, 01:16:32 PM »
Got my '98 514ce back from the shop - finally got around to fixing my headstock ding - can't even tell anything happened in the first place.

That is some very nice work. Nice to know you have someone that can do things like that since accidents happen to all of us.

Excellent!
Did you have the work done locally or did you send it to Taylor?

Done by the fine folks @ the Appalachian Bluegrass Shoppe up in Catonsville. Taylor specifically recommended them, even though there are Gold service locations that are much closer to me. They're taking care of my Baby-M Bridge next.


For the W-10....it went all the way back to El Cajon.

Looks nice.
So, really it looks as though it is all finish work no damage to the wood.  They did a great job.
