He restores the most thrashed guitars and basses to if not factory, then to complete usability. He just restored a Fernandes that someone had attempted to bash to oblivion.

No talking, and the products he uses are in Japanese. The restoration is great, but his demos at the end...:rolleyes:

 
He does a great job overall, and I really enjoy watching him rescue those mistreated instruments. Although I don't always agree with his aesthetic choices (the laser-cut wood pickguards, for example), the guy clearly knows what he's doing. I also like that he understands if a part can be rescued or if it's time to just replace it.
