Setups. Mods. Restorationw.
I’ve always enjoyed taking apart my guitars and putting them back together. Once you understand how the pieces fit, you can turn any instrument into a well-oiled machine. This page is a surface-level home for my ancillary workbench services in the Toronto area, as well as a gallery for the instruments I am currently setting up and showcasing for sale. If you want to grab a spot on my workbench for a quick tune-up or browse my current inventory, check out the sections below.

3. Electrical Troubleshooting
Guitars are mechanical tools under immense physical tension. If your signal is cutting out, your knobs are scratchy, or you have a loose wire somewhere inside the cavity, I can diagnose the bug and get your electronics running smoothly again.
2. Pickup Swaps & Basic Mods
Tired of muddy factory pickups or want to change your look? I provide clean,
reliable electronics drops and basic hardware modifications to unlock the true
voice and style of your guitar.
● What’s Included: Clean soldering swaps for new pickups, swapping out old potentiometers or jacks, and basic hardware component upgrades (like changing tuners or bridges).
1 . Guitar Setups
A great guitar isn't just bought off a retail wall; it needs to be dialed in correctly. If your strings feel stiff, your action is miles high, or your notes are choking out, a basic setup resets the foundation of your instrument.
● What’s Included: Meticulous neck relief adjustments (truss rod calibration), deep fretboard cleaning/conditioning, pickup height
optimization, string changes, and clean intonation adjustments so your chords ring true across the entire fretboard.
● The Result: An ergonomic neck that plays like a dream, tailored completely to your preferences.
