Electric Guitar and Bass
Basic set up $45
The basic set up includes adjustment of the truss rod(if needed), setting the action to your preferred height, adjust the action at the nut(if needed), intonation to your specific tuning, clean and oil fret board, light polish of frets, cleaning of the body and neck, tightening all lose bolts and screws, and an overall evaluation of the guitar.
Set up for tremolo $65
Includes everything in the basic set up as well as the proper adjustment of the springs so that the bridge will sit in the correct position.
Set up for floyd rose $75
Includes everything in the basic set up as well as the proper adjustment of the springs so that the bridge will sit in the correct position.
Nut Replacement
Custom fitted bone nut $60 or $35 with set up.
I may have plastic nuts in the shop that will work that I can sell for cheap, but I will never recommend using plastic. You will lose tone transfer, meaning your guitar will be noticeably quieter if you choose to use plastic. But for the quick and easy fix this may be acceptable for you.
Fret level, crown, and polish $60 or $35 with set up
Do your frets have large indents in them or do you hear a constant string buzz? If so, then it is time for this. I file the frets down until the indents are gone and so they are all level with one another. Then use a crowning file to bring back the round shape. Once this is done, I get rid of all the scratches and make them shine like new. If your frets are too low to do this procedure, then it is time for a re-fret.
Re-Fret $225
We will pick out the best fret wire for your preferred playing style. I pull out all the old frets, level the fret board, clean out the fret slots, and put the new frets in.
Re-glue headstock or neck $60-$100
It is never fun seeing a part of your guitar break off or crack. Depending on the seriousness of the damage, most of the time this can be fixed.
Install new tuning machines $15-$40 (does not include the tuning machines)
New tuning machines can always help a guitar stay in better tune. There are many choices out there. I’d be more than happy to give you my opinion on what is available and what would work best for you.
Pick-up install $60. $15 for each additional pick-up.
New pick-ups are always a fun way to give your guitar or bass new life. I am personally a big fan of Seymour Duncan.
Rout and install pick-up $80. Each additional pick-up $40.

Bridge Re-Glue $80
If your bridge is coming up even a little bit, you would be amazed at how much tone transfer is missing from your guitar. A re-glue of the bridge will dramatically increase the volume and clarity of an acoustic guitar.

Custom Bridge Replacement $200-$250
Saddle Replacement $50
Most cheaper guitars come with plastic saddles. Replacing this with bone or something similar will once again increase volume and tone transfer.
