Parental warning: if you love guitars and have a weak stomach, DO NOT swipe to shots 4 and 5!

1972 #Gibson #ES355 TDSV. Resurrected by Toronto luthier @alastair_miller.

Nearly 2 years after "the incident" and now that I have it back in one piece again, I feel I am finally ready to share the story of that brief moment of carelessness that caused me so much anguish.

March 29, 2021 was the 3rd worst day of my life. The guitar was sitting on a stand in a cramped part of the room, and I needed to reach for something behind it. A smart person would have moved the guitar out of the way. But I was in a hurry. In passing, I carelessly brushed up against it…hardly touched it in fact. But it was just enough to throw it off balance and to my horror, it tipped over, hitting the floor. The side of the headstock struck the hardwood, and it literally exploded. The sound was gut-wrenching. Needless to say I was devastated…and furious with myself for my stupidity. Despite the waves of nausea, and choking back the tears, I got down on my hands and knees, collected all the little pieces, put them in a Ziplock bag and sealed the shattered remnants up in the case. I didn't (couldn't bear to…) look at the guitar for the next 17 months.

And then I met Alastair at @dlott65 & @chriswstringer8's Guitar Extravaganza Day in early September, and I thought "Hey! This guy studied lutherie with Sergei de Jonge, has a great reputation as a builder, and repairs guitars for some the top shelf musicians around town…maybe I should ask if he would be interested in repairing my 355!"

And he was! And he did! And the rest is history.

Alastair had the guitar for about 3 weeks in total and I could not be more satisfied with his work. The only indication of a break is the line running up the back. From the front only the two small cracks in the biding indicate that anything ever happened at all.

I learned a lot from this painful episode: 1) never, ever, EVER let your guard down when handling a Gibson, and 2) take all your repairs to @alastair_miller! 🙂

🎸⚡ALTERNATE PICKING⚡🎸 Alternate picking is a guitar technique that involves using a downstroke followed by an upstroke when playing consecutive notes on a single string, or switching between strings using downstrokes on the lower-pitched string and upstrokes on the higher-pitched string. This technique is often contrasted with economy picking, in which the pick follows the contour of the phrases being played and may involve using both downstrokes and upstrokes on the same string. There are several advantages to using alternate picking on electric guitar: 1️⃣ Speed: Alternate picking is generally considered to be the most efficient technique for playing fast passages on guitar, as it allows the player to maintain a consistent down-up motion with the pick, which can be easier to control than using a mix of downstrokes and upstrokes. 2️⃣ Accuracy: Alternate picking can also help to improve accuracy when playing guitar, as it allows the player to maintain a consistent attack on the strings and to play with greater precision and control. This can be especially useful for playing complex passages that require precise timing and phrasing. 3️⃣ Consistency: Using alternate picking can also help to improve consistency in your playing, as it allows you to maintain a consistent picking motion and to avoid the potential for errors that can occur when switching between downstrokes and upstrokes. This can be especially useful when playing in a band setting, where consistent phrasing and timing are essential. 4️⃣ Dynamics: Alternate picking can also allow for greater control over dynamics when playing guitar, as it allows the player to use the pick to vary the volume and attack of individual notes. This can be especially useful for adding expression and interest to your playing. #guitar #guitarplayer #guitarist #guitarlife #guitarsolo #guitarcover #guitarra #guitarstrings #guitarhero #guitarlessons #guitarart #guitarcollection #guitarphoto #guitarphotography #guitarplayerlife #guitarmusic #guitarplayers #guitarplaying #guitarrepair #guitaraccessories #rombopicks #alternatepicking #guitarpick #plectrum (at Germany) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cmb21F2sBbq/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Bass guitar fix! A student of mine had an unfortunate booboo when his bass slipped out of his gigbag in a parking garage. The impact damaged the body to the point where the thin part that held the pots cracked and that also ripped a few wires loose. Since this bass isn’t very expensive, his budget is limited and my refinishing skills still have a lot to gain we decided to simply glue most cracks down, cut the thin wood out and make a pickguard for it to hold the pots. The trickiest part were the electronics. A 4-conductor computer style flat cable completely tore itself from a circuitboard and after finally putting everything together I get notes fuzzing out, noise, low output and weird thumps while turning some pots. It turns out another wire to a different circuitboard also snapped internally but only truly separated when tugged on it. I put it back on and voilà!! These ‘complicated’ wiring jobs are still victories to me. I love this job. ❤️ #guitarrepair #bassrepair #yamaha @yamaha_guitars #bass #bassguitar #guitarrepairs (bij A Different Tune - muziekschool) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmEL9jxNJys/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
