I have a Takamine 12-string acoustic/electric and the bridge on it had split. I'd asked to get it repaired for my birthday and my mother had taken on the task. She had selected DH Guitar Repair to do the work due to their close proximity to her. She returned it to me a month later, starting her explanation with, "He didn't charge me for it." Strange. She continued, "When he was removing the bridge, it took some of the veneer off. He did his best to repair it. But he replaced the bridge, set it up and says it plays fine." I opened up the case and I could not believe what I saw. The repair to the damaged veneer was appalling. It was not refinished in any way. It was simply glued back on to the surface of the guitar. I figured this because there was still evidence of glue in multiple places on the face of the guitar that were never cleaned up. When the new bridge was glued to the body, it was attached slightly above where the old bridge had been because the edge of where the old bridge was seated is clearly visible by about 1/8". The old bridge had four mother-of-pearl inlays -- two on either side of the saddle and two on either side of the bridge pins. The new bridge did not have the inlays. Instead, it was covered with scratches, which I can only assume came from sanding away at the glue after the bridge was seated. Not knowing if it was actually necessary, the pick-up had been replaced, evidenced by an excessive amount of cabling gathered up in the body of the guitar. I removed the guitar from the case and picked it up, only to hear a substantial amount of dirt or debris shifting around inside the body whenever I tipped it back and forth. I understand that unexpected things can happen in the course of any repair. What is inexcusable in this case is the sloppy, careless work that was done in an effort to repair the damage. Based upon what I've seen, I cannot dismiss the possibility that the same carelessness may have led to the damage in the first place. I fail to understand how an apparent professional could find this work remotely acceptable. When you send anything in for repair, at a bare minimum, there is an expectation that it will be returned in at least as good a condition as when it was sent in. I am stunned and sickened by what has been done to this guitar. I only hope that I can find another luthier capable of repairing the damage caused by this one. read more

I contacted Bill via the DH Guitar Repair website about my Baby Taylor acoustic. He almost immediately messaged me back, and we scheduled a time for me to drop it off. I picked up my Baby T today, and it feels better than the day I bought it! Bill did an excellent setup, fixed the action, and put on a new set of strings. Fast, friendly, and professional. I will only go to Bill now for all my guitar needs! read more
