Guitar setup Services
professional acoustic Guitar Setups $85 (If I provide strings) $65 (if you provide strings) *prices can vary for premium strings*
Most new guitar players, and even some experienced players, do not realize that a guitar needs to be setup correctly to play correctly!! Every guitar you buy brand new will need some sort of setup done on it to get the best sound from your playing. Rarely does a new guitar come from the factory setup for optimal playing conditions. Often the action (string height) will be too high which can cause alot of problems for new players wanting to learn. Having a high action can cause your fingers to hurt more than they need to which will lead to you giving up on wanting to play guitar!!. A high action makes it very difficult to form chords correctly and get a clear, consistent tone. When I setup your guitar I will do a full inspection on the guitar and take precise measurements of the string height to determine if any adjustments are needed, I will check and adjust the neck relief if needed, remove the old strings, deep clean the guitar using the appropriate cleaning methods including a professional fret polish!! I will then install your new strings and precisely tune the guitar using professional tuning methods.
basic same day string change $30 per string change (you provide strings)
Guitar strings should be changed frequently to get the best performance out of your guitar. If you are a regular, every day player it is suggested that you change your strings at least once per month. It really depends on how often and how much you play. I take the hassle out of string changes!! Drop your guitar off to me and I can get the strings changed while you wait! (Appointments required) I will remove the old strings, do a basic cleaning of the guitar, install new strings, stretch the strings so they stay in tune and tune your guitar to your preferred tuning!!
