Renecking the Morris 

Thank you Ted, for all the work you put into my guitar, I really can't thank you enough! Played it for four hours when I got home and was absolutely blown away by your ability to perfectly replicate the original neck, plays and sounds as though it never moved and remained perfectly set up for 40years. seriously had it not been for me knowing the were the original dents and blemishes were on the original, I would've never known. for Anyone in southern Ontario who's is looking for a High end luthier, I highly recommend taking your guitars to him. Ted truly is a master craftsman..

The scalpel blade shot at

You’re remark about epoxy with a 5 minute working time being used by the “criminally insane” was hysterical.

I was looking forward to the conclusion of this saga and it did not disappoint.

Loved the Star Trek reference. Great job on the guitar!

The sun will get you everytime if not paying attention. Those burns from the past are the best teachers for all of us.

"I was Icarus and tone was the sun". 😁 You're a really good guy to do all of this. Not many businesses like this anymore. I know it wasn't an ideal situation but I really enjoyed the videos. Maybe someday you could do a series on building a guitar from scratch? Im sure it's hard to find time, but id love to watch it happen, hear about all the choices you make and why. Maybe you could do it as a one off Patreon series so it would make commercial sense? Just an idea. Keep up the great work Ted.

A masterful example of guitar restoration. You sir really know exactly what to do and when, this level of work takes years of repairs. I salute you, your customer is bound to be excited and very pleased.

Your "mistake" gave many a view of some lovely woodworking and some useful tips for me. I hope that is some consolation.

Very impressive results Ted!!! What you've done here for your customer shows the kind of good old fashioned integrity that we don't see very often these days...thanks for shoring up my withering faith in humanity!

WATCH THIS VIDEO IF YOU NEVER WATCH ANOTHER.!!! A masterclass in renecking in all respects, with sideswipes at the ethos of being a great repair guy. Truly beautiful. I know Ted doesn't respond often to posts, but, if you happen to see this - thanks!

Oh!! Ted-San great and excellent job!! I'm Japanese guy I always glad to watch repairing old-Japanese guitars politely and tenderly. keep on awesome. god bless you.

These are always excellent, but this one is on into astonishing. Many thanks!

"The 5 minute stuff is for the criminally insane." I got a nice laugh out of that, thank you!

Wow that’s one big-sounding guitar. This is customer service above and beyond any expectation

The mark of a master is to get to a true disaster and be able to recover in such away as to be better than the original. Thanks for taking us on the journey!

... tone was the sun - priceless, like this guitar is now.

You are da BoSS… what a fantastic save….your client must be over the moon 😊

When I got the notification for this video I miss read it as “red necking the Morris” and thought “heck, I could do that”.

I absolutely LOVE how you use old machines and keep using them - because they work (fret cutting machine). Love your videos. Great in content and style. And humour. It is appreciated
