Restored to good playing condition in 2016 by Mike Lewis of Fine Resophonics. Mike refinished the neck, replaced the tuners and carried out a thorough set up including seating the single cone and spider bridge properly. Mike commented 'It's a nice guitar, and fiddle edge Dobros are really quite rare'. The guitar would have originally had a dull gold stucco finish but at some point in time its steel body has been nickel plated
