Hello,
I have been on this forum since high school and have always wanted to send a guitar to Historic Makeovers and keep it as my forever guitar and let it age with me. This guitar started off as a 2020 R8 that I purchased from Dave's guitars (great shop). It weighs 7.6 lbs, not chambered. I sent it off to HM soon after receiving it so I'm now getting to bond with it in its finished state, which is fantastic. I went with the Standard package, but without the the neck recarve. I also had Throbak DT-102 (DW) installed while it was there. The finish is their standard faded tobacco, and I just could not be more pleased with the result. I have included some picture of the finish checking that is already appearing. Enjoy!
