Hello all, this is my first post. I live in Orlando Fl. just a short drive from Tom Jacobs. I was over there today to drop off a couple of guitars and had a very nice chat with Tom and his wife. He asked me to pass along his best regards to all fellow LTG's

Cool! Tom never posts here -- I assume because he has no time, what with all those Guilds being to shipped to him for repair.
Are there photos of his shop anywhere online?

I know I got neck reset done on the D25 back in 2015. It won’t need another in my lifetime. I am sure the F30r needs some work but it plays fine as is. Otter priorities. Made to be played. Very durable these Guild acoustics.
Tom and Delyne are the best! Saw them last when I was in FL late last February, and there's no better repair guy for Guilds.
normally, jacobscustomguitars.com but there is an issue with his site right now

Guilds age like people. Sometimes they need a neck adjustment or minor surgery

He used to post as Fixit, but over the years his participation has dwindled. I shipped across the country to have Tom work on my guitar. It was a wise move. Glad he's busy and as Sandy said, he and his wife Delyne are just wonderful to work with. I'm glad to have someone like that in my arsenal, even though he's far away.

I've never sent a guitar to Tom to be repaired, but I have at least two (thanks Richard P!) that were repaired by Tom.

Tom did a masterful job restoring my D25, many years ago now.
