What a killer Makeover! Nobody does it better than Kim...I'm sure your Historic will feel, sound and play better than ever; mine certainly does, and a few more are going Kim's way as we speak!

How do they buff it out? My 2001 HM, came with dry spots, and orange peel. I guess they did that in an attempt to make it looked aged. I've been using Novas #3 to remove the dry spots; but it is a long process. As a note it was purchased in 2008. Maybe 2007.

Hi Steve,
Your guitar was buffed out 7 years ago when we were having Dave Johnson performing the work on the finish.
If you wish to send the guitar to Florida. I will pay for the shipping and completely buff out the guitar and return at my cost.
Thank you.

A mahogany neck with flame!? If I hadn't seen that pic I wouldn't have believed it. I guess there really is a god.

 

[reswot]

The flame is pretty neat, huh? I've seen it on others, but not often.

Thanks for the kind words, guys. I'm looking forward to getting it home.

 

[KOTR]

Killer.

Hey Kim thanks for the offer, I think I will take you up on it. I will call you this weekend. Great customer service!

I got a few more pics this week. It looks like the distressing is pretty much done; I asked Kim for light, but realistic distressing. I've done some heavier distressing, myself, but I didn't want to go that far with this one (I may start a Backstage thread about a "madeover" Orville by Gibson that I did).

Anyway, it looks like it should be about ready to be setup and shipped back home. Here are some pics:
