April 2011 I won an ebay auction for a Telefunken Opus 7. It arrived in great shape and was touted as having to need going over. I assumed it would need a rebuild, just wanted one that looked like it hadn't been abused, and had been stored properly.


Looking around for someone who could restore it, I came across John Wentzel's shop in San Francisco. Over an hours drive, but he had been in the business a very long time. In fact he was training an understudy and preparing to retire as I recall while talking to him there. Here are some photos he allowed me to take of himself and his shop.
