Blog #32:  Repairs/Truss Rod/Gallagher

Well..so much for it being a “white” Christmas here in upstate New York…”let it rain…let it rain…let it rain”…  In the shop, I’m doing some repairs on various instruments from a local school as well as making the truss rod for the new mandolin I’ve been working on.  I’m hoping to have it ready for the Joe Val Bluegrass Festival in Framingham, Mass. at the end of February.  I also had recently re-fretted a Gallagher Guitar that a friend of mine had just brought to me.  Though this is a shortened update…I do want to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Joyous Season!
