Why Do I Need A Guitar Set Up?

No, of course not!  We offer free repair evaluations at the Haywire Custom Guitars-Custom Shop.  Because, electronics need to be accessed to troubleshoot a problem, as a result, we need to examine an instrument internally for structural issues.  It won’t cost you. Need a Guitar Set Up?  We’ll let you know.

Since, there’s nothing fun about playing guitar with a poor Guitar Set Up  therefore we’ll take care of it.  First of all, if the strings hurt your fingers, it won’t be comfortable.  If there’s buzzing, you can’t play with others very well   A bad set up is one of the key reasons new players give up playing guitar. Don’t give up!  Because, there is lots that can be done. That is why there are Setups!

Why does my guitar need to be set up?

When you buy a new car don’t you need to adjust a car’s seat, mirrors and seat belts?  A guitar is like any other instrument will need several adjustments too. If it’s brand new it will need adjustments and a Guitar Set Up,  for sure!  A Guitar Set Up? It addresses the instrument’s play-ability and  adjusting many areas to give the guitar a broken in familiar feeling of sheer comfort that makes you want to play it all day!  It’s simply an extension of YOU, the musician. You want it in top shape!

All I Did Was Change Strings?

Even a simple thing such as changing your strings or gauge can alter the guitar’s play-ability, so it may just need a quick tweak. Find a great old guitar at a garage sale or a hand me down from a family member?  We’ll tweak it to make sure it’s playing as well as it possibly can. If you’re purchasing a guitar from us, we’re happy to set up your instrument exactly the way you’d like. If you’re not sure, we can get you going in the right direction and ask a few questions and get it set up well for your comfort and style.

We’ll check the: neck relief, nut slot depth and height of the nut, saddle height, intonation, pickup height on electrics, loose and rattling hardware and tighten it back up.
