| - I just found my new go-to guy for all guitar work! The Guitar Dog got me in right away and set up two guitars while I waited, and they play great now after needing a setup for far too long due to our dry, hot/cold weather. This is after I called around to other shops, left messages, and either didn't get called back or was quoted really long wait times and higher prices. I'm confident he does good work because the guitars sound great and play great, and he's done guitar work on the road for multi-platinum acts. While I was at his shop, a bass player was in from Denver for some work on his rig before taking it back for a studio session, so we all just hung out while he got my guitars ready to go. I have some old Japanese guitars from the 60s (an archtop MaxiTone, a tulip, and an Audition) that I'll be bringing in next. They need some electrical, and he said that's no problem.
But, his prices are really reasonable. He doesn't advertise, and he works out of his house, so he doesn't have to charge you a lot for his overhead--just the work he does on the guitar. He also guarantees his work, so if something goes out before it should, you won't have to pay twice. He even offered me a shot of espresso while I was waiting. Next time, I'm coming by in the morning. I love my guitars, and even though they're not collectible, they're worth keeping in top form. And it's better when you like the person working on them, you can hangout for awhile, talk music, watch the work getting done, and take your guitar back home right away sounding like new.
