Taylor and Tenor

After several trips to a local luthier, Bay Fretted Instruments, over the past few months it was determined that with a neck reset and new bridge/saddle with the proper height my 1962 Harmony H1201TG would work well with a mandolin tail piece and movable bridge.
After removing the neck from the body, installing new maple neck binding, bone nut and saddle, I left the instrument with luthier to do neck reset and finish the final fitting.
I am very pleased with the results. It isn't a cannon but sounds great in both tenor and Chicago tuning. Here are a few photos.
