IF NOT THERE IS NO NEED TO READ ANY FURTHER.
If your strings are getting old and your guitar needs new ones, don't just change them, get a setup! After you get a setup your instrument is usually easier to play and sounds better.
If you need your strings changed, a truss rod adjusted, the fretboard cleaned and oiled, the frets leveled, crowned, dressed and polished, the intonation set, the bridge height adjusted, the pick up heights adjusted, the stripped hardware fixed or replaced, the tuning pegs repaired or replaced, the electronics repaired or replaced, the nut worked on or replaced on your acoustic, bass or electric guitar then bring it to me. However, I am not a Luthier and I don’t normally do woodworking, fret replacements or finish repairs. Please read on for an idea of the prices I charge.
SETUPS
Note that there is a $20 service charge for doing a string change or set up on a guitar that I receive with two or more strings missing on it. The reason is because it does not allow me to do a proper pre-check and evaluate the guitar to see what work needs to be done. It also makes it take longer to do the work because the guitar has not been under tension and will take longer to form back into place once the strings are put on.
Set ups consist of different processes and each process is necessary to make the guitar play the best it possibly can. I have listed each process and the charge for doing each one of them if you are not getting a complete setup.
1. Doing a setup on a guitar
that when received is missing
two or more strings.
$20
2. Change out strings.
$10
3. Truss rod adjustment.
$5
4. Clean and oil the fret board.
$30
5. Lightly clean the whole guitar,
but not the fret board.
$10
6. Tighten down all hardware and
repair stripped wood holes.
$10
7. Oil tuning pegs if needed.
$20
8. Setting the intonation.
$10
9. Adjusting the bridge height for
easier playing action.
On a fixed bridge only.
$5
10. Adjusting the pick up heights
for proper volume control.
$5
Each guitar has different levels of difficulty and require different amounts of time to do the setup. Therefore, I have listed the following prices for different types of guitars when getting a complete setup, according to the bridge. These prices are for a complete setup if you provide the strings.
Fixed bridge with no adjustments.
$40
Fixed bridge with height adjustments but no intonation adjustments.
$45
Fixed bridge with height and intonation adjustments.
$50
Non-floating vibrato. There will be an additional $5 charge for each spring if replaced or added.
$60
Floating vibrato. There will be an additional $5 charge for each spring if replaced or added.
$70
ALLOWED TIME
For a full set up it usually takes about 4 hours due to the wait times of fret board conditioning. In order to do a thorough job I prefer to keep the instrument for at least 24 hours which allows me the proper amount of time to keep tweaking the guitar adjustments for the best outcome.

NUT WORK
The prices listed are general because there are several ways how nuts are mounted to guitars. Each different way can affect the pricing. So the prices that I have listed for the nut explained in the first type.
1. The nut that is glued into place at the end of the fret board it usually is easily removed by scoring the ends and tapping it out of place. It can be shimmed to raise the actions.
2. The nut that is imbedded into the fretboard and usually breaks when it is removed. This can be slightly shimmed and usually needs replacing if the action is too low.
3. The nut that is imbedded between the fretboard and the wood on the headstock and has to be cut in two in order to remove it. This type of nut can have the action lowered by filing the string slots, but if the action is too low, the nut has to be replaced.
4. The locking nut system, which is usually screwed to the guitar neck and can be easily removed. These nuts are usually made of metal and if worn out need to be replaced. However, they are easily shimmed in order to raise the action.
If you are getting the nut work while having a set up done, there is a $10 discount
If the nut needs replacing, I can do all the measuring and the ordering for the new nut for $20
I will order the nut to my house for a deposit of $20
