Maintenance

String change: €15
Complete cleaning: 30€

The cleaning includes the body and neck, as well as the electronics, which are dusted. Additionally, the fingerboard is cleaned, and oil is applied to nourish the wood (if it is not a varnished fingerboard).

Adjustments

Electric or Acoustic guitar: 75 €

It includes adjusting the truss rod tension (to set the neck curvature), the string height at both ends of the neck, and the instrument’s intonation. For electric guitars, the pickup height is also adjusted, as well as the bridge saddles to ensure the strings follow the fingerboard radius.

Electric guitar with a floyd Rose: 100 €

The adjustment of guitars with a Floyd Rose bridge is a bit more delicate, as it requires not only a complete standard setup but also the fine-tuning of the bridge’s balance position to allow maximum playing range and the best possible tuning stability.

All adjustments include a complete cleaning and a string change.

Headstock nut or bridge saddle craft: €50
12-string guitar headstock nut craft: €60

In cases of buzzing open strings, unwanted noises, a guitar that's too difficult to play, or an instrument that doesn't hold its tuning, new nuts are often an appropriate solution. The nuts are custom-made by me, unique, and tailored to each instrument.

Installing a new nut requires a complete adjustment.

Complete rewiring

LesPaul type: 70 €
Archtop guitar: 90 €
Telecaster or stratocaster type: 60 €

Full rewiring. With the exception of the pickups, all components are replaced: potentiometers, capacitors, wiring, selectors, etc. Recommended for instrument modifications or customizations.

Component replacement

Single component (potentiometer, jack socket, etc.): 15€
Complex component (push-pull, blend, etc.): 30€

This applies to a small repair, such as a faulty component, a crackling potentiometer, a tone control that no longer works... or for an optimization of the instrument, like a pickup split, phase inverter, etc.

Pickup change

Single coil pickup: 50 €
Humbucker pickup: 60 €
Cavity routing surcharge: upon estimate

A single modification can completely transform the sound of the instrument. We can choose the pickup and install it on your guitar. It is sometimes necessary to work on the guitar body to fit the desired components, most often using a chisel.

Modification, customization, custom wiring: upon estimate

There are many possibilities when it comes to guitar wiring: treble bleed, switches, phase inverter, blend, etc. We can decide together on the desired options and install a custom wiring setup.

All wiring prices are given excluding the cost of components.

Frets Maintenance

Polishing: 50 €
Edges smoothing: 30 €
Filling fret tang ends: 50 €

Without making major changes, it's possible to give new life to a fretboard. Polishing helps remove most of the scratches caused by the strings during play. If the frets are protruding from the neck, they can be leveled to ensure a more comfortable neck. If there's a small gap between the frets and the fingerboard, it can be filled, improving both the frets' hold in the fingerboard and the overall aesthetics.

Frets Modifications

Fret leveling: 175€
Complete refret: 250€

In the case of excessive buzzing caused by worn frets, a leveling can be done: the frets are flattened to create a perfect, unified plane. Once the leveling is completed, the frets are rounded and polished.

If the frets are too worn to be leveled, a complete refret is required: the old frets are removed, the fingerboard is reworked, and its radius is corrected. New frets are then installed, leveled, rounded, and polished.

Varnished fingerboard surcharge: 30€
Fingerboard binding surcharge: 50€

All modifications made to the frets affect the playing surface. Therefore, a complete setup of the instrument is necessary to ensure it is adapted to the new frets. This complete setup is included in the price of the modification.

Works on the soundboard

Simple crack repair: 50€
Complex crack repair: upon estimate

A crack in the soundboard can often be glued to restore its integrity. Wooden cleats are also glued inside the body of the instrument to secure the crack and reinforce the repair.

Re-gluing a brace: 30€
A rather rare case but easily repaired: if the brace is not broken, it can simply be re-glued in place.

Cracks and repairs

Simple headstock fracture: 80€
Headstock fracture with reinforcement: 170€

For a broken headstock, without any tearing or with easy realignment, the headstock is simply glued, and the instrument becomes playable again. In the case of a more significant fracture, the headstock is glued, and reinforcements are inserted at the back of the neck to strengthen the glue joint and prevent future weakness.

Bridge re-gluing: 100€
Installation of a new bridge: 250€

To re-glue a bridge that is coming off, it is first removed from the soundboard. The bottom of the bridge is cleaned and shaped to match the curvature of the soundboard. The same work is done on the soundboard itself for a perfect fit. Finally, the bridge is re-glued. Installing a new bridge involves removing the old one, carving the new one, and installing it. The design of the new bridge can be done in collaboration, and the choice of wood is also flexible.

Complex repair, neck reset...: upon estimate
