Yep picked it this afternoon. He's made a really good job of it from what i can see. I also had the frets dressed. And a setup which isn't low enough for me so will adjust it sometime next week.
Here are the photos. A video of the process or putting in the Sterling silver is beign edited and should be out next week sometime. The guitar review is not going ahead because they feel that it doesn't fit into what they do which mostly about building and repairing guitars. Not reviewing .

Looks good! I'm sure you are happy to have the process behind you and successfully completed!

Very nice.

Here is the video of the inlaying of sterling silver. I Haven't watched it yet  but am just about to. Hopefully I will enjoy it. Pick up your coffee or join me for an Engllish Tea :- whilst you watch it.



I guess you stateside guys are used to adverts every few minutes from your TV service and often wonder if you get irritated by them or not?
I it's hard for me to get to the end of most you tube videos even for ones that I am really keen to watch for that reason.
Anyway I guess this journey is complete. I'm so glad there was no ivory in the headstock logo.

Looks like they've done a nice, clean job retaining the original aesthetic of your Dragon Magic guitar, Jazzy. I think the sterling silver was a good choice for replacement, and well-executed. 


Commercials must be universally obnoxious. I reckon everybody gotta' pay bills though! 

There's always YouTube Premium. At a premium of course, but no more interruptions.

I think I've seen the commercial for that... 🤣

 Also Mica kindly added a note about the ivory removal in the custom archive page, which i am grateful for, as should i put it up for sale it should give confidence that the buyer is not going to be siezed by customs due to ivory content that the guitar originally had.

It made me smile when one of the comments online about replacing the ivory with silver was the added weight. I imagine any extra weight would not be more than a couple or three cashew nuts. And completely swamped by the coco bolo.
