Guitar on the workbench

What does the service include?

The work depends on the type and condition of the guitar. We check the neck, action and intonation, then adjust the relevant components to achieve the right balance.

  • Cleaning the instrument and caring for the fretboard according to its material
  • String replacement and neck adjustment
  • Adjustment of string, bridge and saddle height
  • Intonation and pickup-height adjustment as needed
  • Inspection of frets, contacts and electronics

A few useful things to know

Which guitars can be set up?

Electric, acoustic, classical and bass guitars. The exact work varies according to the instrument’s construction and available adjustments.

When should you bring the guitar in?

When the guitar becomes less comfortable to play, develops buzzing or tuning issues, or after a change in the instrument or string gauge. An inspection will show what work is needed.

How much does it cost and how long does it take?

Price and turnaround depend on the instrument and the work required. Contact me to arrange an inspection and estimate.
