Sound familiar?

  • The strings sit high and playing is hard work
  • Buzzing frets, or dead spots on the neck
  • It keeps going out of tune, or plays sharp up the neck
  • New strings on it and now it plays differently
  • Bought used, and you do not know what you have

What I do

Setup and intonation

€75

Neck relief, string height, nut slots and intonation set to your string gauge and playing style. Electronics checked, tuners and neck inspected. The instrument plays the way it was meant to. Tell me what you play, what tuning you use and which strings, and I set it up around that.

What that includes

  • New strings fitted
  • Action set
  • Pickup height set
  • Truss rod set
  • Bridge saddles intonated
  • Electronics checked
  • Fretboard cleaned and oiled
  • Frets cleaned and polished
  • Body cleaned
Turnaround
Usually within one day, sometimes while you wait
Surcharge
  • Twelve-string guitar+€15
  • Floyd Rose tremolo+€20
Note
Strings not included. What is needed, and what is possible, differs per instrument.

Prices are per instrument and exclude parts and strings. Not sure what you need? Give me a call.

What you notice afterwards

  • Lower action without buzz, as far as the instrument allows
  • In tune all the way up the neck, not just in first position
  • Tuning that stays put
  • Set up around the strings and the tuning you actually play

Make an appointment

From a broken neck to a finish repair: I do that too, but work like that cannot be priced up front — it depends too much on the instrument. Call or email and we will work out together what it needs. You get a price first.
