We work wonders on most guitars, but miracles? Maybe not so much. Bring your guitar in, and we’ll see what we can do. For common structural issues and most repairs, we’re your shop. If your guitar is beyond saving, we’ll be honest and help guide you on the next steps.
Do I need an appointment for repairs?
For simple services like restrings, walk-ins are usually fine. But if you’ve got something more complicated, it’s best to give us a call or send an email. That way, we can make sure we’ve got the time to give your guitar the attention it needs.

It depends on what your guitar needs. Setups and restrings are usually ready within 48-72 hours. More complex repairs, like refrets or neck resets, can take a few weeks, but we’ll keep you updated every step of the way.
