I have a really nice D 70. It has typical playwear and isn't perfect by any means cosmetically but I truly don't care much. It's a wonderful guitar. This is the model without the carved neck heel.
But there was always an issue with the headstock overlay/applique or whatever the right word is. it just looked like crap to me. I could put up with the playwear but not that headstock deal.
So, I sent it to Tom Jacobs and now it looks the way I need it to look to make me a happy guy.
Here's a couple before (1st 7 pics) and after pics. They may not be good to show you the issue before and how it looks after but trust me the difference is significant and well worth the repair cost (at least to me).
While it was there Tom also repaired a ding on the back of the neck, buffed out the guitar, did a fret level and re-crown and a complete set up and string change.
