Professional Guitar Repair Services

Technical service SETUPS MAINTENANCE AND repairs

Technical setups and scheduled maintenance are crucial ingredients for guitar players to be able to get the best tone, feel, voice (timbre), vibration and response from their instrument.  Mallaby Guitars specializes in comprehensive technical servicing and setups, repairs, maintenance, and friendly advice for all types of acoustic, electric & bass guitars. 
All Set-up prices are listed on our Repair Price page.

FRET re-level re-crown & DRESS

A perfect setup requires perfect frets, and a perfect fret-board. Badly worn frets need to be re-dressed or replaced to get the best results during a setup depending on the amount of wear and tear they've suffered.  Badly worn fret-boards also cause unevenness, discomfort, dull notes and poor fret and neck response.  If your guitar has buzzing frets, notes that sound dull, or notes that cut out early, it's probably time to have your frets checked. Prices listed on our Repair Price page.

HARDWARE RECONDITIONING REPLACEMENT PARTS AND SERVICING

Reconditioned, brand new, original or aftermarket parts and hardware replacement parts are an essential part of keeping the life and longevity of your instrument in good health.  Leaving old corroded hardware on your guitar spreads its decay to your strings and other parts of your instrument, causing further damage than necessary to your guitar.
