Video Not Working? Fix It Now

A wonderful 1955 Martin D28 walked in the door with a few issues from age, and a few from previous repairs. In less than 24 hours (3:30pm Monday- 2:00pm Tuesday) I repaired, removed and reglued the ebony bridge, dressed the frets and fretboard, adjusted the saddle and nut, fixed a few screw holes and unbent a couple of tuners as best as I could. It was a fun and relatively easy project compared to what I usually have to face, and having a time crunch forced me to git-er-done in a hurry. This is a welcome relief in the wake of my last Video which was a DOOZY! Linked here: EVERYONE Wants A Spanish Conversion!
