🔧 Guitar Setups, Repairs & Services

(Note: We do not repair broken necks or spray guitars)


🎯 What is a Guitar Setup?

A proper guitar setup ensures your instrument is tailored to your playing style. It improves playability, tone, and overall performance—whether your guitar is brand new or well-played over the years.

Factory-built guitars often lack the detailed attention required for optimal play. A professional setup can fix factory oversights and wear from use, including mechanical and electronic issues.
