What guitarists say
"Prior to Gary's help, my Bass VI had intonation issues, an uncomfortable high action and fret buzz. He has transformed this instrument into something I can confidently gig with. This set up service was worth every penny."
"Took my Les Paul to Gary with an electronics issue and it was fully diagnosed and resolved. I'm very happy!! Gary is a lovely guy, very welcoming and friendly… and certainly knows his stuff!"
"Gary did an amazing setup on two of my guitars — both played like brand new. Two-day turnaround, incredibly knowledgeable. I'll definitely be back."
