Restored instruments

by nico | Sat, 04/24/2010 - 13:49

Just restored a couple of instruments.
I think, they turned out pretty well.

One of them is a Deagan 594, once owned by Mike Mainieri. When we got it in, it was painted white.
We did the following:
- cleaned the bars
- replaced the terrible casters by new, bigger, and better ones
- removed the experimental midi-electronics (didn't work anymore, impossible to repair)
- filled up the space in the endblocks where the midi was placed.
- coated the keybed
- powdercoated the supporting frame and the coverplates for the rails in black

gigVibe news

Last couple of weeks we have been working hard to set up the "sales environment" for the gigVibe.
People were asking us for affordability of the instrument, and the availability of several ranges.
So we cut down even more on costs on this instrument, and by adding options you're able to configure the instrument exactly to your needs.

The morning after

OK, this is the morning after the incredible hectic workshop weekend.
Got out of bed 3.30 this morning as I promissed Tony and Sharon to get them to the Airport. After that back to sleep for a few hours and then off to the factory.

We're taking an easy day today, first cleaning up the shop after the weekends' hurricane ;-) that went thru and putting everything back on its place.

Finally an occasion to start blogging.

Tomorrow I think end of the day Tony is arriving here, of who I'm excited to meet in person.
