L. Puentes German Bass

This bass came to me, literally, in pieces. The owner carried it around this way for nine years -- traveling from Caracas, Venezuela -- before it reached my shop. The bass needed a complete restoration: rebuilding the entire back with new cross braces, neck graft, top pressing with new bass bar, new end block, complete varnish, and more ....

​

The succession of photos you see below start with how the bass arrived at my shop and progresses through the restoration and complete revarnishing.
