I would never set foot in this guy's shop. The quote below is from his blog at www.edroman.com. He openly states that he would accept money to create a vintage guitar forgery and sign a non-disclosure agreement in order to enable the seller to then deceive a prospective buyer. If he's willing to help people cheat other people for his own gain, why would he hesitate to cheat any customer? (except, perhaps, his celebrity clientele).
"The only way to fix this problem is to remove the neck completely and replace the entire neck with a brand new piece of presumably aged mahogany.
I am currently charging $3,500.00 to do this, For that price I will also sign a non disclosure statement, Promising never to reveal to anyone that this work was performed on your guitar."
