Description

Broken Headstock Guitar Repair understands the relationship every musician has with their instrument. Be it a rare vintage, one-of-a-kind custom, or brand new fresh out of the box, every piece has its own importance and value to its owner. Maintenance is essential to the playability and durability of any instrument. Beyond the simple setup, modifications, minor corrections, or salvage repairs are often required at some point in the life of a guitar. Broken Headstock Guitar Repair works with you - professional musician or casual player, meticulous handler or savage maniac - and within your budget, to fix the problem and get your instrument back where it belongs: in your hands. At the Broken Headstock Guitar Repair shop we strive for perfection, and while each instrument presents its own unique set of challenges, we do our very best to make it as comfortable and reliable to play. We use only the highest quality genuine stock replacement parts and our work is always guaranteed. SERVICE TIMES: Standard turnaround for instrument setup and minor repairs [pickup replacement, electronic rewiring, nut/saddle replacement] is 1 to 2 weeks. Turnaround time for major repairs may vary between two to four weeks [headstock repair, re-fret, bridge replacement] to two months and up for major salvage, custom build, or restoration projects. SETUP SPECIFICATIONS: Regular use and abuse as well as temperature shifts affect each instrument and in turn require necessary maintenance and adjustments. Every brand and model of instrument has its own set of unique specific factory specifications according to design and the components used in its fabrication. In general terms, instrument setups are based on a combination of original factory specifications, actual instrument condition and/or modifications, and average acceptable standards. Every attempt is made to attain maximum comfort, playability and reliability. That being said, certain brands of instruments are known to have lower neck and bridge profiles in their overall construction designs than others. Not every instrument can, nor should, attain these preset standards. REPLACEMENT PARTS: Whenever possible, only genuine stock replacement parts are used. In the event that original factory parts are not available, suitable high quality aftermarket parts will be substituted. In the case of vintage instruments, every effort is made to obtain age specific parts from various vintage part suppliers. In major restoration projects, a combination of sourced vintage parts and quality retro-reproduction parts are utilized. Genuine factory, vintage, and quality aftermarket parts are held in stock and are available for purchase. A service of sourcing rare, discontinued, vintage, and hard-to-find parts is also available to clients. BROKEN HEADSTOCK GUITAR REPAIR has worked with, among others: Mastodon. Priestess. Arcade Fire.
