Professional guitar & bass maintenance, service and repairs.
To this date, this guitar is the one that turned around the most. It came to me almost unplayable. The action was ridiculously high (for those that speak inches, it was 11/64” on the bass side and 10/64” on the treble) due to a piezo pickup being installed under the saddle that wasn't accounted for by the installer...it apparently came from the factory like this! Chopped that sucker DOWN. Well, painstakingly filed and sanded that sucker down.
The bridge was also routed pretty poorly so the saddle was loose in the slot. I took some veneer and shaped it to match the curve of the bridge so the saddle would fit snugly in the slot.
Even with these setbacks the guitar was still played and was quite dirty and needed the normal TLC all the guitars that pass through here get.
The pickup needed to be adjusted too; the electronics were dirty and tangled in the guitar. That got sorted out.
End result? A FANTASTIC piece of wood! This guitar just sings. Put Elixir mediums on it...definitely worth it.
