The work was amazingly technical, but his attention and customer service is unlike anything I’ve experienced in almost any retail or repair situation. Just had a basic set up done by Emory at Appalachian Bluegrass.
The violin sounds just beautiful when played. They repaired a 130 year old family heirloom violin… The staff is full of experts in all acoustic instruments. I’m sure I’ll also be back to buy a guitar from them at some point. They’re also very nice folks to deal with. I brought it to him and he confirmed that he didn’t think he’d have any issue correcting the problem and restoring the finish so that I’d never be able to tell that it had been repaired (I ultimately traded the RT to Woody (Mike) here on AGF before doing the work because he wanted to handle it himself). They told me he would do just as well with as the factory did. Also, Taylor referred me to him when I inquired about getting work done on a center seam separation issue that I had on my R. Emory did great work for me last month on a D35 that had hazing in the finish from the previous owner. My son was very pleased and his father very pleasantly surprised. They did a great restoration clean-up job. It was gorgeous when we picked up the guitar. – Acoustic Guitar Forum Memberīrought in a 1965 Guild which was dusty and dirty and needing fret repair. They have done lots of work for me over the years… neck resets, refrets, brace repairs, bridge work, nut replacements, etc. I live 7 miles from Appalachian Bluegrass.
You can see his guitars in the shop and at Dream Guitars. Since then they have brought luthier David Macubbin in house to work on guitars and he is outstanding. A number of years ago they did a bunch of work on my LG1 and did a 1st rate job. I can also sing praise for Appalachian Bluegrass for this work. These guys fixed my J-200 when no one else could.
– Acoustic Guitar Forum MemberĪppalachian Bluegrass does top-tier work. Get in your car and make the drive, they have a very good selection of guitars for you to try before your drive back home. I feel confident enough not to hesitate taking any of my repairs to him, and he is a distant drive for me but I am picky. I have seen Emory’s (Appalachian Bluegrass) finish work on Taylors first hand, and can honestly say he would be my go to guy. Instruments professionally set up for your success!
