After
removing the neck, the entire side is stripped off the kerfing,
and new reinforcing struts are inlaid into the kerfing.

Another
view of the removed
side
and the reinforcing strut "ladder".
|

The new side is bent based on a template made from the undamaged
side.
|

After bending and fitting, the side is glued on and the guitar
placed into a mold made from the exact profile-this ensures
exact fit.
|

O-Style in Bondage!
The
original finish is visible on the back. Dry, glue, dry...
|

And
the top side.The mold solved the problem of unequal pressure
that clamps would have provided.
