Tim picked up his third Brook, this time a Tavy, here’s the trio with Trigger proudly on guard!
Rosewood back and sides,
With a Sitka top, and koa rosette and binding.
Another trio here – Pat from Las Vegas sent us a current photo of his three.
John from Southampton ordered this Tavy to match the Carey we made for him a couple of years ago,
The Carey‘s on the left, the Tavy on the right. Both with rosewood back and sides and matching figured mahogany and herringbone rosettes.
Here are the latest two for Coda – a red-gum and European spruce Lamorna and a rosewood and Sitka Lyn
Here are the backs.
This twenty-four year old Tavy came in for a set-up
And this seventeen year old left-handed Tamar twelve string needed some remedial work to the bridge, it looks like the humidity was at fault here – the tuners were actually rusted around the edges.
Back playing properly again!
Just carried out a fret dress and set-up on this ’80s Les Paul.
It’s not often we have this many Brooks on the rack at one time,
A mixture of old and new with our Brooks amongst the collection of vintage instruments.
Simon Moore took the opportunity to come round and take some more shots for his short film of the workshop!
Lastly – another photo from the morning commute!
