PRICELIST:

​

​

Every instrument that comes through our workshop begins with the Guitar Diagnostic Pathway.

​

Before any setup or repair work is carried out, we perform a comprehensive assessment to understand exactly what your instrument needs. This ensures accuracy, transparency and the highest standard of workmanship from the outset.

​

GUITAR DIAGNOSTIC ASSESSMENT

£40 

 

Your instrument receives:

​

• Full neck relief measurement
• Action and playability assessment
• Fret wear inspection
• Nut slot evaluation
• Saddle and bridge analysis
• Pickup height check
• Hardware stability check
• Electronics function test
• Structural inspection (neck pocket, headstock, body joins)

​

You’ll receive a clear, professional recommendation outlining:

​

- What needs immediate attention
- What can wait
- What will improve tone and playability
- Transparent pricing before any work proceeds

​

The £40 diagnostic fee is credited against any recommended work confirmed within 7 days.

A Note About Guitar Setups

 

As experienced guitar repairers, we have learned a thing or two about what makes guitars work. We want to make sure that you are getting the absolute best out of your instrument. The way to achieve this is by having your guitar set up, which means making adjustments to the guitar to ensure that the guitar functions to the best of it's ability, and that it plays great!

 

Although it would be great if all guitars sounded perfect and played like a dream straight from the factory floor, there are many factors that will stop your guitar  achieving it's full potential. Current manufacturing quality control, relative humidity, and how the instrument is cared for are all factors that act to make your guitar not play well.

 

To ensure that your instrument remains well maintained, we recommend that any guitar is booked in for setup work on at least an annual basis.

​​

​

STANDARD SETUP:

£65 + cost of strings

 

This is the basic level of work required to bring the geometry of the guitar into tolerance and playing cleanly and comfortably without excessive fret buzz or uncomfortably high action. Most new guitars will require a setup to ensure they play their best

 

Standard Setup includes

-Re-string

-Truss Rod Adjustment

-Action and Intonation adjustment

-Re-cut nut slots

-Clean and Polish

​

 

DELUXE SETUP:

£90 + cost of strings

​

If your guitar has had to go without it's proper care for a while, it may have also developed some crackly electronics, some oxidisation of the frets, and the general dirt and grime that forms on a guitar that has been missing it's upkeep. Our Deluxe Setup ensures that all these issues are taken care of, and your guitar is fully dialled in.

​

- Re-string

- Truss Rod Adjustment

- Action and Intonation adjustment

- Re-cut nut slots

- Clean and Polish.

- Buff Frets

- Clean and Oil Fretboard

- Set Pickups to Optimum Height

- Deep clean of the instrument

- Intonation is set with a digital strobe tuner which is accurate to 1/1000 of a semi-tone.

- Some spot levelling of frets (done at the technician's discretion)

- Full electrical check (any replacement parts & components will incur some additional cost)

​

​​​

Please note: A premium of £10 is added to any setup on 12 String Guitars or Floyd Rose, Kahler tremolo systems etc.
