Maintenance and Repair Services

Have you ever said:

"I used to love the way this guitar played (or sounded). Now, it doesn't have the feel or sound it used to."

Often, when your guitar doesn't sound as good as it used to or has gotten hard to play, it is just a sign that it's time to get it serviced. If it used to sound/play good, then it can do so again. Here is some pricing of common repairs.
