Broken Wing Guitar repairs and restores used, salvaged, damaged, and vintage string instruments.....It began with a background and love of woodworking and acoustic music that developed into a passion as all things that you love do.To get our hands dirty and maybe with a little luck be able to give back some life to an instrument that may have ended up in the trash or someone's attic or closet, and let it make sweet music as it was intended to do. I do not claim to be the finest luthier or craftsman by any measure, just a person with a love for music and the instruments and people that make it.

Binding

I have been busy again, so not much getting done. I did get a chance to cut some binding from a piece of  leapordwood that I had. Cutting on the tablesaw and thickness planed down to about .085. I also cut 3/4" wide strips from the same leopardwood board and will use one for the end graft. In the meantime I ordered some w/b/w purfling and herringbone that should be here next week and I can get started routing and
installing the bindings.
