I was unsure that it could be fixed but I took it in anyway. After a setup this bass plays like a brand new bass build specifically for me. Not only that but it was returned to me sparkling clean and in amazing shape. Clearly, this shop cares for the instruments as if they were their own. There are plenty of options for guitar repair in this area but this shop stands head and shoulders above them all.

Well after hanging up the guitars several years ago its time to strap one on again and maybe do a…read morelittle something for fun, so i was driving by and popped into this place to check out some acoustic guitars and look for a new amp. Not bad at all, an acoustic room where you can hang out and get a good feel for what they have in stock, that was impressive, also i can say this, they had amps, and they were probably what everyone else wants, but me i was looking for one from back in the day so its hard to find an amp that has not been in circulation for a bunch of years in good condition. But hey, if its new stuff you are looking for, they certainly have it. They had a nice selection of electric guitars also, and i was impressed with what they had. Also, they were a bit shy on the effects but had lots of accessories. They did well in putting together this store. And even though i didnt buy anything, i have my eye on something so we may meet again in the near future.

I wanted to extend my gratitude for your recommendations this past Saturday…read more So this weekend, I upgrade my Squier J-bass with Fender control pots and better Capacitors you recommended Previously my Volume pots where not a linear range (everything was in the first quarter turn, and the balance between bridge and neck where shit) the Tone pot suffered from EM noise interference A bit of drilling and dremel to fit everything in the cavity was a bit of a PITA but I made it fit Sanded down the magnets on the pickups to clean them up and expose new surface Holy shit. I now have a Fender Player Bass rammed into a Squier Couldn't be happier with the results TL;DR Don't need to update my pickups A $60 solution ($18 per pot + caps), soldering and electronics chops saved me $100s Thank you for your time and professional advice

Phil was able to repair it, as well as second crack I had not seen. He also repainted the section, making the guitar not only playable, but beautiful.
