Restringing
Fresh strings can dramatically improve your tone and playability. I’ll clean and inspect your instrument before carefully installing new strings, ensuring proper winding and tuning stability. Whether you prefer electric, acoustic, or classical strings, I’ll help you choose the best option for your playing style.
While-you-wait & next day service (depending on availability). Strings are not included in the price. D'adarrio strings are stocked in the shop or you may provide your own.
Setup
A properly set-up guitar can make all the difference in your performance. I’ll fine-tune your instrument by adjusting the truss rod, action, intonation, and pickup height to ensure smooth playability and accurate tuning. Whether you play with a light touch or dig in hard, I’ll customize the setup to match your preferences.

Over time, dirt, grime, and fingerprints can dull your guitar’s finish. I’ll carefully clean and polish your instrument, restoring its natural shine and luster. This service includes cleaning the fretboard, body, and hardware, leaving your guitar looking and feeling brand new.
Guitar Detailing
If your guitar’s nut is worn, cracked, or causing tuning instability, I’ll replace it with a high-quality bone, synthetic, or graphite nut to restore proper string spacing, height, and tuning consistency. A well-cut nut ensures great tone and reliable performance.
Nut Replacement
Minor issues with your guitar’s nut can lead to string buzz, intonation problems, or tuning instability. I’ll make precise adjustments or repairs to ensure your nut is properly seated and slots are cut to the correct depth for optimal playability.
Nut Repairs
Polished frets not only look great but also enhance playability by reducing friction and allowing smooth string bending. I’ll carefully polish your frets, removing any tarnish or grime, giving your guitar a silky, like-new feel.
Fret Polishing
Uneven frets can cause buzzing and poor playability. I’ll level the frets to ensure a flat, consistent surface, then recrown them to restore their rounded shape. This process improves intonation and ensures smooth, comfortable playing.
Fret Leveling & Crowning
If only a few frets are worn down or damaged, I offer partial refrets to replace the problem areas while preserving the integrity of the rest of the fretboard. This targeted approach restores playability without the need for a full refret.
Partial Refrets
When your frets are too worn for spot repairs, a full refret will breathe new life into your guitar. I’ll carefully remove the old frets and install new ones with precision, ensuring perfect leveling, crowning, and polishing. A full refret restores your instrument to peak performance, giving it a fresh, responsive feel.
