I built a guitar but I'm no luthier and I needed help with shaping the saddle and cutting the nut. I've done some things on the list (steaming off a bridge, removing the neck, even routing off the top) to one of my factory guitars but it was pretty much a goner so I treated it like a med student treats a cadaver. Otherwise the most ambitious thing I've ever done to a factory guitar was to stabilize some key cracks but the repair left a nasty scar.
