Output jack got disconnected during travel. Am blind, can't fix. Wes the guitar magician fixed it in less than five minutes. Sounds better than ever.

Wesley is next level. Huge depth of knowledge and experience as well as excellent attention to detail. Cool guy as well. I brought in a 26 yr old strat with maple neck..it played well but the frets were pretty beat up. Wesley gave it a fret level, recrown & polish, strings, and a setup. "like butter"... I played it 4 hours straight the first time I picked it up :-). I'm jamming right now..leaving this review while on a break.

Wesley did an outstanding job on my Les Paul to both the electronics as well as the playability of my instrument and as busy as he is it was done at least a week before he told me it would be ready. Words can't adequately describe how grateful I am for the work he did. Thank you.

Questions & Answers

Do you buy quality instruments?I have a Gibson Mastertone 5 string banjo made around 1970. Like new condition and set up for bluegrass.

If you cant sell it local, Check out Chicago Music Exchange. They have a pretty good system for consignment or sale.

Can customers sell guitars to you guys?

I generally don't purchase instruments from people. Sorry.

Do I need an appointment to get a set up done on an acoustic guitar?

Kevin Ashby | Nov 1, 2019

Only if you need the instrument back the same or next day. Otherwise we have just a 1 week wait for walk-ins. Thanks for the question hope this is helpful. If you do decide to set-up an appoinment it will be atleast 48 hours until I could get you scheduled.

I have a 19" Ohana Ukulele that I would like buttons put on. What is the charge and can I wait while you do it? Also, I have a Soprano Luna that I would like the G string replaced with a low G. How much and can I wait?

The strap button can be installed in 5 mins and it's gonna cost 10$ that includes the button. The string change will only cost you 5$ for only the one string to be changed and again will only take 5 mins tops. Both these jobs you can have done while you wait. Hope this helps.

Do you guys paint guitars?

Yes, sir, this is actually a specialty of ours. Wesley spent 5+ years as a finishing paint tech at Gibson Guitars USA in Nashville. If you would like to see any of his work please come by the shop and he will be happy to show you some of his past work. Thank you for contacting us and we look forward to seeing you in the shop soon.
