Precision is the Soul of Inspiration!

A guitar shouldn't be something you fight; it should be an extension of your hands. When the playability is perfect, the music just flows.

We recently finished a Basic Setup on this striking 2025 Gibson Custom Shop Les Paul Axcess Standard in Siberian Tiger Gloss. To handle the high-performance demands of its Floyd Rose system, we focused on absolute technical accuracy:
* Neck & Action: Used StewMac Precision Straight Edges to dial in the perfect relief and a fast, low action.
* Bridge Calibration: Balanced the tremolo tension for a flawless "return-to-zero" pitch.
* Final Detail: Polished that figured maple top using MusicNomad Equipment Care products to ensure the finish glows as much as the tone.

This "Tiger" is now officially ready to roar.

Fresh Life for a Classic Taylor

This beautiful Taylor just left the bench feeling brand new! We performed a precision neck reset and a Basic setup to get that action buttery smooth.

Topped it off with a fresh set of Elixir 80/20 Bronze (11-52) for that signature sparkle and long-lasting tone.

Is your favorite guitar playing a little "stiff" lately? Let’s get it back to its prime.

Fresh out of the shop and feeling like butter.

We just gave this relic’d Fender Stratocaster the ultimate performance overhaul. If you’re tired of "fret out" or scratchy bends, this is the blueprint for a perfect player.

The Upgrade List:
*Jescar Medium Jumbo Stainless Steel Frets: For that effortless, glass-like glide and a lifetime of durability.
*Stewmac Bleached Bone Nut: Hand-shaped for superior resonance and rock-solid tuning stability.
*Nitro Satin Finish: Re-applied to the neck for that smooth, worn-in feel that never gets sticky.

Standard frets wear down; stainless steel stays perfect. Is your favorite guitar due for a revival?

Saved this Epiphone Les Paul Classic

This one came in with a snapped headstock and a broken truss rod—pretty much a worst-case scenario. We got it back under tension with a full truss rod replacement, a solid headstock repair, and a fresh paint job to clean it all up.

While it was on the bench, we gave it a massive performance boost:
* Jescar Stainless Steel frets
* Custom-carved Stewmac Unbleached Bone Nut
* Elixir Nanoweb strings
* Precision low-action setup

It’s officially back in action and playing smoother than ever.

Thanks for all the support, everyone—the calendar for April is officially fully booked.

Just finished up this Fender Telecaster Deluxe. It got a full setup and a fresh, hand-carved Stewmac bleached bone nut to keep things ringing true. Strung it up with Elixir Nanoweb 9-46s for that smooth feel.

I’m now scheduling for May, so if you want to get on the bench, send over a message to grab a spot.

Sometimes the best way to show what happens at the shop is to just show the work. This Tagima Stratocaster just got a serious overhaul and it’s sounding incredible.

​We swapped the stock electronics for Tonerider Surfari Pickups and added full copper shielding to kill that unwanted hum. To help with the sustain and tuning, I hand-carved a fresh Stewmac bone nut from scratch.

​It’s currently dialed in with 12-51 D'Addario Jazz Light strings and a full professional setup. The feel and clarity on this one are now top-tier.

​If your guitar needs some love, feel free to reach out. We are currently booking by appointment to make sure every instrument gets the proper time on the bench.
