Builds, Setups, Repairs & Advice

The luthiery side of LBS is a result of a lifelong passion for woodworking, and my side career as a Mechanical and Electronics Engineer.  I have always worked on my own instruments, and have been running my luthiery shop since 2007.  

I do repairs, setups, hardware and electronics upgrades, in addition to new builds from scratch.  In most cases, I can provide a loaner instrument while completing the work. 

Basic setups for electric bass or electric guitar - $120 for non-students, $100 for students.

Ask about any hardware upgrade, other repair, or setup need. There are discounts for students on all services.
