Hey Ya'll
Unfortunately, I'm not going to be at the shop tonight. Still sick. But it's not Covid! So please don't come tonight. I'll be back at it next week. Thanks!
We’re at the shop 6-9 tonight, come hang! Here’s an HSS Strat, in for a tune up.
What’s your all time favorite humbucker???
Nice D35 in for a setup. We will be at the shop 6-9 this evening for pickup/drop offs, come hang!
Another monster offset on the bench! This one from in for a fret dress and setup. Semi-hollow, wide range HB’s (💪🏼 very impressed) and setup for D-standard for those of us who need even LOWER end tone 💪🏼
Bring out your fuzz pedals & tremolo 🎸
We’ll be at the shop tomorrow for Pickup/drop off. Come hang!
Keeping it bare bones for • the P90 might be one of our favorite pickups, and it doesn’t get any more simple than a single LP jr 💪🏼
This Epiphone was in for a setup and I gotta say for the money these look and feel pretty dang solid. Lots of cool p90’s out there to try these days & which is your favorite p90 lovers???
For Flattop Friday here’s a recent 1950’s D18. This crispy flatpicking machine was in for a full re-fret and setup. It had a perfect handful neck shape and that fundamental, warm and woody tone you’d expect from a vintage mahogany Martin.
My assistant JB wanted this one badly, we let him get a few G-runs in 😉
Which is your favorite…Mahogany or Rosewood 🤷🏼♂️?
Completely overhauled Squier Jazzmaster - & full setup. This thing is TIGHTENED UP 💪🏼
Terrific hollow body in for a setup this past week. Uh, help us out here. Who are the best all-time players who rocked a Guild?
Wine Red Les Paul Jr for one of our lucky teenage customers.
Cheers it’s Friday 🍷
Neck reset #2 of the evening - this 60’s Gibson LG with the very suave original Dearmond soundhole pickup. The neck on this thing feels like a glove and with that old mahogany back it’ll sound resonant and fundamental. These old school soundhole pickup configurations have gotten quite the popularity resurgence from and such….
Let us know if you have any cool project ideas you’re cooking up!
A few weeks into the 2022!
it’s a Friday night and we’re tackling 2 neck resets over here. First one is a 1970 D12-35
- doing a full neck reset, fretwork, making a custom pick guard (should they stick with black?)
This slotted headstock old Martin is going to back to its former glory by morning!
What a treat to restore this 1959 !!!
Here’s to hoping loads of riffs get played on this beauty 💪🏼
We’re all booked up for the next 3 weeks. Thanks to all our wonderful customers we are 65+ guitars deep in repair work, custom builds and restorations.
