Guitar and Bass Setup and Repair Services
Shop will officially open for setup and repair services on February 19th 2023!
Summary
All prices listed are labor only – parts are not included.
I also offer a free instrument evaluation, including a thorough inspection, including electronics, that will be given in writing.
This way I will be able to uncover any other issues that may need to be considered by the customer.
This allows for accurate pricing and no hidden surprises!
Unfortunately, estimates cannot be given by phone, text message or e-mail since I will need to inspect the instrument first.
Thank you for understanding!
To schedule an appointment, please e-mail me at gary@garydenyer.com or, if you are on Facebook, you can DM me! My Facebook Page is HERE!
Pricing – Standard Shop Rate
The standard, hourly shop rate for “unlisted, unusual or particularly labor-intensive” repairs or modifications is $90.00 per hour.
Some larger jobs may require several days, such as clamping, flattening and neck straightening.
This will be recorded as “bench time” in hours and charged at $90.00 per hour.
EXAMPLE: A guitar in for repair requires me to have it for 5 days during which time it has a “bench time” of 3 hours = $270.00
Setups are either performed to the instrument manufacturers specifications or to the customers playing style and preferences.
More information from the customer is better in the latter case!
