    I won't lie, I'm here for two things.
    1) Seeing you taking a good care of instruments.
    2) Seeing what's on your nails.
    And I'm never disappointed.
    Plus, Music Man instruments are one of my favorite. Really great brand.

    I was volunteering in Kyiv for a month, and just before I left the YT algorithm showed me your channel. And of course I was living just five minutes from your shop! I didn't have time to come by this time, but I will be back hopefully in the winter.
    I have shared your channel with a bunch of musicians here, and we are all fast fans :)
    Hopefully I will be back to say hello on my next round of volunteering. Don't change a thing! Your content is ACES!

One of many repair places in the city- they have an incredible culture of repair and upkeep of goods. Something I dearly miss seeing here in the US.

    I recently bought a LVOV bass. It's from 1982 and the neck is warped to the treble side. Needs refretting too. Just the tiniest frets ever. Very narrow neck, but very chunky on the back. The neck by itself feels like a small baseball bat. It has a valute that creates the V shaped neck. Very different experience than what I'm used to.
