Labor Policies
Shop Hourly Rate is $80.00 per hour. Since each instrument is unique, prices quoted are estimates and may be adjusted based on actual time involved. A final price will be submitted prior to actual work and price may need to be adjusted in the case of repairs that get more involved as the work progresses.
Rush jobs may be charged extra pending current workload. Generally I can perform setups and fret dress jobs in 1-3 days. Other services may take longer. I always try to meet the scheduling needs of my customers if possible. Please call, text or email me to discuss your guitar and to schedule a drop-off. I look forward to serving you!
