OK, so I watched it last night and enjoyed seeing the craftspeeps doing their work and explaining it to the camera. The backstories are just irrelevant background noise for me, but I don't feel entitled enough to complain about it. I also don't care if they can afford to get their own stuff fixed or not. I don't even care if they do or don't make a contribution to the cost afterwards - it's just a TV programme and those costs are part of making it. It's still cheap TV compared to other programming and often more entertaining and informative.
I think I'd enjoy it more if they spent more time on the processes and crafts and less on the people who own the stuff.
Thanks for highlighting it to the rest of us.
I wouldn't have screwed it back on, but it doesnt hurt since it has a failed repair and existing plug holes.
I actually have a scrap neck with headplate that would have matched that nicely.
The important bit is it'd a nice old hofner that's playing well again
Pickguard looks naff though

Plummy accents, expensive clothes, expensive hair. No-one got rich by giving away money they didn't need to.
They could well have fallen on hard times, they might not be well off, they might've got their Sunday Best on to go on TV.
And they might have got there on their unicorn.

I'd have thought they just try to get interesting items or back stories.
So it's irrelevant whether the toff customers have fallen on hard times or are just living normal times.
Incidentally, I tend to find when rich people talk about a rough patch or being skint, they really don't mean the same kind of skint as people from council estates.
it also gives you some inspiration for giving it a go yourself...potentially
Other than making a replacement neck, I’m not sure there were any - but I certainly wouldn’t be keen on having the neck shaved on a vintage instrument.
