Old truss rod removed, new truss rod MADE, new truss rod installed, he is going to leave it a few days to completely harden, then fret it :-)

They guy in question (assuming it's who I think it is..) is well known for very long "waiting lists" for instruments.

I guess some folks see that as making the instruments (and repairs?!?!) more exclusive, personally I see it as a sign of an ineffectively run business (if someone can't deliver a product in less than a *year* they don't get my money, simples! ;) )

I played one of his basses a while back. Looked nice, but nothing special IMHO.

Glad you're making progress with the new luthier! :)

[font="Calibri"]Suffice to say, I will never be going back to Chris Eccleshall, which is a shame, great nice guy, but lazy as sin[/font]

[font="Calibri"]Tom Anfield = FAST :) [/font]
