I received my ukulele with a poorly placed strap button which when the strap was in use would stick out the edge of the fretboard and prevent me playing above the 12th fret, very annoying. I had some amber dowel so I removed the button fine sanded to the dowel to creep up on the fit and installed it into the hole, unfortunately when the hole was originally drilled there was some chipping to the finish, nothing crazy and I’m not overly precious, just be nice to have it look a little cleaner and more aesthetic being a high end brand new instrument. Any advice on what product/s would be best to resolve this?
Also, I have a beautiful High end Uke that had seen better days, needs a new bridge and such. Any advice on good UK luthiers fit for the task?
Ps the amber dowel was a personal choice and may not be for everyone but I felt it best to embrace it than disguise.
