There are so many unique and wonderful guitars in the world - and just as many ways to break, damage or neglect them. I have always made repair a regular part of my work life, and have grown to love the satisfaction of bringing a truly challenged guitar back to life.

I also write a regular column for Acoustic Guitar magazine, dealing with repair, setup, maintenance and related topics. An archive of those articles can be found at:

Acoustic Guitar - Ask The Expert

Each repair is as unique as the player who brings it in.

I do not publish prices for repair services, as they must be quoted on a case-by-case basis. I strive to keep my rates within reach for working musicians, while maintaining a quality of work that does justice to the instrument. Vintage guitars have already lived a life longer than my own, and will hopefully continue to make music long after I am gone.

Some of the common repairs that I offer:

• Broken headstocks (a specialty!)

• Neck Resets

• Refrets, full or partial

• Loose binding regluing

• Fret level and recrown

• Loose brace regluing

• Debugging wiring / electronic problems, hum etc.

• Regluing or replacing acoustic bridges

• Cosmetic repairs, finish touch-up

• General setup/adjustment

• Modifications / upgrades / replacement parts
