We can do almost anything you need for your electric guitar or bass.
Setups are $60, flat rate for electric guitars. This will get your action how you want it, eliminate buzzing, and make the guitar play in tune up and down the neck. (no additional charge for 5 or 6 string bass, Floyd Rose, Kahler, or other Floating Bridges) (some fees for 12 strings apply)
Our complete setup includes: Restringing with strings you provide (we can suggest a set) Cleaning/polishing frets/fingerboard, oiling unfinished fingerboards (such as rosewood) Adjustment of the truss rod for proper neck relief, Adjusting/leveling the bridge, saddles, Slotting the nut to set string height and eliminate binding/improve tuning, Accurate setting of intonation (to make it play in tune all over the neck) Adjust pickups, tighten and clean hardware, etc... We also give the entire instrument a good cleaning and polishing.
A good setup usually means the difference between a guitar that plays well and one that doesn't. Even inexpensive guitars can be setup to play right.
Peterson Strobe Tuners are used to ensure the best possible intonation.
Complete fret work available at competitive prices. We only charge $50 on top of a setup to do a detailed fret level & dress - making your old worn frets look and feel new again.
Refrets start around $250. The price varies depending on the type of neck. *Several fret sizes available, or we can special order any type. We'll pull those old frets out, level the fingerboard and clean it up, then put in whichever size of new frets you like. We work with bound necks, set necks, and maple fingerboard refinishing. The neck is like brand new after this procedure.
We make bone and graphite nuts to custom fit your guitar. The price for a bone nut is $50. Each one is carefully hand crafted, cut and filed to spec and cleaned up for an attractive appearance.
