Common Questions
What's included in a guitar setup?
Our setups go further than what many shops call a setup. Along with the restring, action adjustment, and intonation, we crown and perform a light fret level on every guitar that comes in for a setup, something many shops skip or charge much more for. We also clean and hydrate the fingerboard, adjust the nut slots and saddle, tighten the hardware, and do whatever else your guitar needs to play as well as it possibly can when you pick it up.
How long does a guitar setup take?
Setups typically run 1.5 to 2 weeks, depending on how busy the season is. With a $50 rush, a setup typically takes 2 to 3 days. Restrings and quick adjustments are typically same or next day.
Do I need an appointment?
No appointment needed. Stop by during regular hours to check your instrument in.
Do you work on instruments from outside Montrose?
Yes. Players bring their instruments to us from all over Los Angeles. We're just off the 2 and 210 freeways in Montrose, a short drive from Eagle Rock, Silver Lake, Burbank, and Pasadena.
