Top refinish recommendations in UK

Albert F · Jul 29, 2014

All,

I am thinking of adding a plain top to my collection and am looking for a light burst / sunrise tea burst type of finish. They seem hard to come by so I may need to get an LP with a different top and have it refinished.

Is there anyone in the UK / Europe who specialises in refinishing tops on LPs? I would be grateful for any suggestions preferably with links where sample work can be seen.

Many thanks,

Albert

Florian Jaeger, at Jaeger Guitars, in Oberstdorf Germany has the skills.

They did an excellent job would be worth giving them a call.

I can also recommend Clive Brown in Yorkshire and Mathias Schindehütte in Frankfurt.

whom ever you get check some references first before shipping it out ...I was quoted a four month turnaround about a year ago and still no guitar.
