Does your instrument repair shop handle fret repair for guitars that are starting to buzz when playing?

Fret repair is one of our main services, especially when your guitar starts buzzing while playing. We handle all kinds of fret issues, from light buzzes to major wear. That includes fret leveling, crowning, and even full refrets if needed. We aim to get your neck and frets back to perfect shape so your guitar plays clean and smooth, removing any unwanted buzzing. Every repair starts with a careful assessment, and you’ll get a free estimate before we get started. The goal is to restore the natural feel and sound of your instrument, no matter what kind of fret problem you bring in.

Do you offer fix-ups for electric guitars experiencing issues like buzzing or electrical problems with their pickups?

Yes, fix-ups for electric guitars dealing with buzzing, pickup issues, or other electrical problems are available. Services include troubleshooting and repairing wiring, correcting faulty or loose connections, and adjusting or replacing pickups as needed. Detailed fretwork and setups are also offered to eliminate fret buzz, so your guitar plays clean and sounds its best. Repair jobs often come with quick turnaround times and a 30-day satisfaction guarantee, and you can get a free estimate before work begins.

Can you fix scratches and chips on my guitar, and do your guitar repair services include restoring the instrument's appearance as well as its playability?

Scratches and chips on your guitar can be repaired, and service includes restoring both how the instrument looks and how it plays. Using professional techniques, chips and finish damage get repaired to help the guitar look as close to new as possible, while any work done also ensures your guitar plays well and feels right in your hands.

Do you offer bass guitar tune-ups, and does that service include any adjustments to the truss rod or action?

While restringing service pricing is different for bass, setup and adjustment options for basses cover all the key areas needed for optimal playability, just like with electric or acoustic guitars. If your bass needs a specific adjustment or something isn’t playing quite right, those things can be looked at too, with free estimates for many services.
