Repairs
Alain Raifort performs in his workshop all kinds of settings and repairs, from current jobs to the most delicate. Here are some examples :
Replacing the neck on a HÖFNER
-
- The old neck and the new one
-
- A beautiful neck
-
- Details of the mother-of-pearl inlays
Side repair on a Gibson ES 175
A shock on the jack plug pushed it in the side. To make the restauration invisible, I had to change the entire outside maple veneer of the side, keeping the original core.
