Chubbuck Guitars / Kevin Chubbuck, making & repairing guitars in an old building just north of Boston, Massachusetts.
Spotty wiring :: 2005 Epiphone Dot [8.0 lbs]
One of the tone pots was not rolling off any treble so that is a sure sign of a broken lead. I pulled the harness and found that the pot did not have a path to ground. Also the output jack was poorly wired, so I clipped and resoldered the connection. Once the circuit was repaired, everything was stuffed back in, tightened up and proceeded with the setup.
Loose binding :: 2012 Martin Custom D
Here's a relatively new Martin with loose binding in the waist on both sides. Just need to apply glue and tape up.
Mandolin setup on an A style :: 2015 June A5 [2.0 lbs]
The action adjustment range was extended by refitting the bridge foot. The nut was dressed as well. Absolute beauty.
Lifting bridge :: Bedell TB-30-G [5.0 lbs]
The bridge was peeling away from the top, so it was removed, refit and re-glued with hot hide glue. A small back crack running from the neck block to the first brace was also repaired.
Bridge fit :: June A5 mandolin
The player wanted the action taken down slightly, but the adjustable bridge was bottomed out (and prevented further lowering). The solution above is to remove wood from the bridge's foot and refit it to the top.
Fun fact: Alan Carruth scrapers rule.
