The Resurrection of my Buck Owens "American" Guitar

‍

‍

Earlier this year, I did an episode on the Buck Owens "American" guitars made by Harmony in 1969-1971. Mine was in pretty good condition, but missing its headstock overlay, and having survived a neck break. The day after I released that show, the head broke off again on its own. With learning there was a major structural issue, I turned to a Harmony restoration specialist, Dan Lambert, of El Paso, Texas. Dan had to rebuild the neck and extensively repair the headstock. Today we look at all the repairs and upgrades he did to the instrument, including recontouring the original ladder braces.

Dan will be posting videos showing the repair process on this guitar on his YT channel.
