A Canadian built Seagull acoustic in for some tweaks. After straightening the neck, the saddle had to be shimmed up to improve the action. There is an undersaddle pickup so any modifications to the saddle require the consistent string-to-string output be verified and corrected if necessary.

Sharp fret ends :: Seagull (by Godin) Entourage Mini Jumbo Rustic [4.3 lbs]
A mini jumbo in for sharp fret ends and a heel strap button installation. I really dig this sunburst.

2007 Seagull S6 Slim Dread [4.7 lbs] :: lower saddle and cut string ramps in bridge.
The action was lowered by straightening the excessive relief in the neck via the truss rod and lowering the saddle. With such low saddle exposure above the bridge, I had to cut string ramps to increase the downward pressure of the strings to prevent buzzes and help drive the top.
2007 Seagull S6 Slim Dread [4.7 lbs] :: bad scarf joint.
A portion of the headstock's scarf joint is coming free so I worked some glue into it and clamped it. The owner brought this in for a setup but I'm including this repair too. Just can't help myself.
