I took my Gibson Les Paul in for a new bone nut replacement. Messaged him the next day requesting…read moreto go with his suggestion of going with TUSQ XL. He said no problem and we agreed on it. Two weeks later when expected to picked up he says he doesnt have the nut and still needs to order it. Sure, I wait another week. Picked up my guitar to see very poor workmanship. The nut slot heights are not only not cut to my specifications that I requested. G string was cut too way too low compared to rest. But also the new nut has gaps all over the place and does not sit full bearing within the slot. It's a combination of maybe not cleaning out any existing glue or not filing the seat level. He said I was giving him anxiety by my expectations of good workmanship. In response I said im going to call this work order a loss, im swallowing the loss of ~$170 and i'll take my business elsewhere. It is not right if he is accepting this nut as the best he has to offer as workmanship and not fixing what is to be expected. Photos attached.

I walked around for a while just astounded and a little intimidated by their s. Alex assisted me and retrieved a Yamaha FSX800C from the warehouse that I wanted to see.

I waited another month and they never contacted me about the guitar so I called and Scott from repair said he would work on my guitar that day. I am an easy going person so I wasn't angry about it taking over three months to fix my guitar but when I went to skips to pick it up. Rich (one of their sales people) was very rude to me. He acted like he thought he was better than everyone els. He made some rude comment about my guitar being dusty I know there's a lot of comments about the bad behavior of the employees working at skips music, didn't want to believe it but its true.

I've known of Dale for the past 40 plus years and during that time I know he's been a well regarded member of the Sacramento area piano community. I was quite pleased with the time and attention he showed my piano. So given both his work and his experience working in this area for so long, I believe he would be a good choice for servicing your piano. And if he isn't able to do the work, his experience in the area means he probably knows someone locally who can.
