 (pricelist)
Sooner or later, every instrument needs maintenance.With over ten years of experience, we are able to do high quality repairs and customizings, yet still with love for the instrument.
Fern's Guitars does not believe in a standard setup on guitars. as promised sometimes in shops. As much as possible, we will try to adjust your instrument according to your personal needs and playing style. This means for example a higher action (string height) for one musician, and a lower action for another musician.
We use professional tools, and Dunlop fretwire in several sizes for our fretjobs. On top of that, every instrument is setup properly with fresh strings after the job.
Fern's Guitars is well known for it's high quality repairs of guitar electronics, like pickups and pots. Nice soldering joints, and no mess of wirings, that are only cause of noise. Every instrument is also being checked for good grounding to return an instrument as quiet as possible.
