What our customers are saying
Our Repair Services
Guitar Setup and General Maintenance
A professional setup transforms your guitar into a precision instrument. This service includes truss rod adjustments, intonation, string action calibration, fret polishing, and electronics cleaning. We customise each setup to suit your playing style, ensuring your instrument feels comfortable and sounds incredible. Regular maintenance is key to keeping your guitar in peak playing and sounding condition year-round.
Guitar Electronics Repairs and Upgrades
From crackling jacks to advanced custom rewiring, our electronics service ensures your guitar’s internals are performing flawlessly. We clean, replace, or upgrade components, eliminating noise and improving tone. Services include pickup fitting, shielding, rewiring, and troubleshooting. Whether you’re upgrading for better sound or fixing old, unreliable parts, this service enhances reliability and sonic performance, ensuring your guitar is gig-ready.
Fret Dressing
A fret dress is essential to correct uneven fret heights that cause buzz or dull notes. This process involves leveling, re-crowning, and polishing the frets to restore perfect playability. Using specialised tools, each fret is adjusted with precision, ensuring smooth string bends and clean tones across the neck. We include setup services like action and intonation adjustments to enhance your instrument’s overall performance. Perfect for removing fret buzz and making your guitar feel like new, this service is a must for every guitarist.
Bone Nut and Saddle Replacement
Transform your guitar’s tone with a hand-crafted bone nut or saddle. Bone provides unmatched brightness and resonance, making your instrument sound vibrant and alive. We custom-shape each nut and saddle for perfect string spacing, intonation, and fit. Whether you’re upgrading from plastic or replacing a worn component, this service improves tuning stability and enhances tonal clarity for both acoustic and electric instruments.
Machine Head Installation
Ensure your guitar stays perfectly in tune with premium machine heads. We install top brands like Grover, Gotoh, and Sperzel, offering replacements for broken tuners or complete upgrades. Our inventory includes a wide selection of one-off spare parts, ensuring compatibility with rare or vintage models. A high-quality machine head installation improves tuning accuracy, reliability, and overall performance, keeping your instrument stage-ready.
Refretting and Fret Repairs
Refretting restores your guitar’s frets to factory-new condition or custom specifications. Using a precision neck jig, we replace worn frets, ensuring a smooth, buzz-free playing experience. Whether it’s a full refret, partial replacement, or fret end beveling, each job is tailored to your guitar. Every refret also includes adjustments to the nut and saddle for optimal string height and playability, making this service ideal for heavily used or vintage instruments.
Pickup Installation and Custom Wiring
Upgrade your guitar’s sound with professional pickup installation and custom wiring. Whether you need a single-coil, humbucker, or acoustic preamp installed, we’ve got you covered. From push-pull pots to coil tapping, kill switches, and phase wiring, our expert team can create virtually any electronic setup. Using only high-quality components, we ensure durability and enhanced tone. No matter how unique your idea, we’ll help you achieve your dream sound.
Restringing
Fresh strings breathe new life into your guitar. Our restringing service includes tuning, fretboard cleaning, and hand-polishing for a refreshed feel and sound. We stock leading string brands like D’Addario, Elixir, and Ernie Ball, offering options for acoustic, electric, and bass guitars. Whether you’re preparing for a performance or simply refreshing your instrument, a professional restring ensures optimal tone and playability.
