The work that makes a guitar feel like yours again.
Every job starts with what you notice, not a parts list. Describe the symptom and I'll match it to the fix it actually needs.
Setups & maintenance
High action, fret buzz, tuning trouble, or an instrument that fights you more than it used to. A setup makes it play cleanly, tune reliably, and feel right under your hands.
Other setups $72 to $130.
Fretwork
Buzzing a setup can't cure, sharp fret ends, dead notes, worn frets. From a quick fret end dress to a full refret.
Fret end dress $60 · level, crown & polish $180.
Electronics
Scratchy pots, dead pickups, signals that cut out, mystery hum. Diagnosed, repaired, and tested before it comes back to you.
Simple output jack from $25 · troubleshooting $45.
Four steps, no surprises.
From your first message to the day it's back in your hands, you'll always know what's happening and what it costs.
Start your repair-
Tell me what's going on
Describe the symptoms in plain words and add a few photos if you can. You don't need to know the fix. That's my job.
-
A written quote, nothing without your yes
You get the scope and the price in writing before any work begins. If something changes on the bench, you hear about it before I keep going.
-
Pickup or drop-off, then careful work
I collect your instrument on the weekly route, or you drop it off by arrangement. Most common work takes 3 to 5 business days on the bench once it's approved.
-

It comes back to your door. Play it. If something's off, it goes back on the bench, covered by the 60-day workmanship guarantee.
