Functions of a custom guitar shop

The Main functions of a guitar shop should be to hit the target the first time by building as close to a perfect instrument as possible!

At Haywire our aim is getting better every day! The job is only complete when you are completely happy with your guitar because you’ll use it every day. It needs to be comfortable and light-weight enough to play for hours at a time in any situation without fatigue.

The sound has to be clear and tone-great. It has to be built to withstand the rigors of being on the road whether touring or playing in local venues. It has to feel good to you when you play it.

The action and feel need to be consistent all the way down the neck so you won’t be forced to alter your playing technique as you travel around on the fret board. A guitar players instrument needs to be in tune on every fret so we pay careful attention to the intonation settings.

look good for you and represent your sense of style

It has to look good for you and represent your sense of style. The finish has to last for a long time to protect the wood from absorbing moisture from the atmosphere as well as sweat from direct contact with hard working hands.

The neck needs to have a truss rod that is easy to adjust for seasonal variations in temperatures. It needs the ability to transmit sound and add extra sustain for players. Strings added need to be a comfortable gauge without too much resistance. Because it makes it easier to push down to the crown of the frets.

These are just some of the functions of a custom guitar shop that we think about every day. We make sure we get it exactly right for guitar players who need a great instrument for their passion-PLAYING GUITAR!! At Haywire Custom Shop-We’re building satisfied players…..
