Hello! This week Gary has been up at the Boston shop working on some repairs. I've taken some photos along the way and thought I'd share. Also, we're very near to moving into our new Boston location...look for the new address and photos in an upcoming edition of the Upton Report! As always, don't hesitate to contact us with any questions. We love hearing from you!

Bass Bar Replacement
Yesterday Gary and I got the top off this 19th century Austrian flatback carved bass that is in need of a new bass bar and some top crack repair. The bar was actually carved in as part of the top, and the crack had unfortunately gone into the bar itself! After slowly removing the existing, we'll be cleating and putting in a new bar.

Neck Out...
 This Juzek/Wilfer carved bass (repaired and revarnished by Lou DiLeone) came into the shop with a cracked button and the neck coming out. It took some finagling, but the neck came out fairly cleanly and we reset it, color matched the heel and corrected the overstand. Now it's playing and sounding better than ever!
