Had a little work done on my R.Hoyer acoustic archtop.

New nut. Custom made of bone and rosewood.

Proper set up. Cleaned with a little duck wax and bore oil on the fretboard this morning. Better than new and glad to be back home.

Thank you sir. Carved German spruce. Sounds and plays fantastic. I string it with D'Addario ECG25 flat tops. I use it for gypsy, soul/groove, free jazz and jump/uptown blues. Took a couple of decades to find, but it and my Mule are my keepers.
