Here’s a breakdown of options and considerations:
When deciding to do acoustic guitar repair an instrument the first question or consideration should be, “Will a repair make this instrument viable again for playing?”
The next is, “Can I repair it to the satisfaction of the designer/builder?”
Finally, “What would be the least invasive method to restore an older instrument?”

Our approach is to bring the acoustic guitar back into a playable state. Next, try to repair it in the way the builder would have done it. No need to over-build it but in the spirit and approach of
the instruments design and function. Lastly, the most important consideration is maintaining the original beauty when completing the repair. As an acoustic guitar ages, it tells a story. Sometimes a “birthmark” or bruise can be an identifying mark and a great story. But sometimes a great instrument in distress needs some care. We’re here for that.

In order of importance when restoring or repairing a musical instrument, try to be realistic when determining if it can be restored to a playable state. Do it in a minimally invasive way in keeping with the original design and sound qualities in the forefront. The final touches are reserved for artistic and superficial finishing.
