Hi, I’m Jared. Thanks for checking out my site! I have been playing and working on all kinds of guitars for well over 2 decades. I just love taking guitars and returning them to their former glory. There is just something so satisfying about taking something beat up and more or less useless and turning it into a beautiful musical instrument again! I also believe that almost any guitar can be great with a proper setup. If you are a new player and aren’t sure if the guitar you got is feeling quite right I can also look it over for you and make sure it doesn’t have any problems, which can save you years of headaches.

Looking for a specific tone from your guitar? I can help you find the right tools to get ya there! I love researching and playing with different pickups, pedals, amps, all of it! and if you need help knowing what you want to put in your guitar or what other gear you might need or NOT need I can definitely help with that!

Bottom line, I love guitars and I love fixing things so if you have a guitar that needs some work I would love to help you out!

Things like “what kind of music do you play?” And “how do you like your action” are really important to how I approach the repair.

I Stand by all of my work. all repairs are guaranteed.
