Ukulele Repair and Restoration at Lichty Guitars
While Jay spends most of his time building custom guitars and custom ukuleles, yesterday we had the good fortune to make a new friend, discover new uke music and drool over a vintage instrument in need of some gentle touch and repair. Singer, songwriter and ukulele player Denise Ostler came by the shop in need of a master luthier’s skills. Denise has two beautiful vintage instruments and came to Lichty Guitars shop to see about having Jay get them in top playing shape.
These old instruments of hers … ah, the stories they could tell. Jay looks forward to the task of getting their voices in line with their classic vintage beauty.
After Denise headed out we enjoyed listening to her CD, Welcome to Asheville. This lady’s music is creative and fun and well worth checking out.
