Guitar Setups in Prestwick & Ayrshire
A professional guitar setup can make a significant difference to how your guitar feels, sounds and plays. Whether you've recently bought a guitar, changed your strings or playing style, or your instrument simply isn't playing as well as it should, a setup can help get it feeling right again.
At Sea of Timber Guitars, I provide professional guitar setups from my workshop in Prestwick, welcoming musicians from Ayr, Troon, Irvine, Kilmarnock and throughout Ayrshire.
Professional Guitar Setups
A guitar setup involves making careful adjustments to improve the playability and performance of your instrument. Depending on the guitar and what it needs, this can include adjusting the neck relief, action and intonation, as well as checking the overall condition and playability of the instrument.
Every guitar is different, and the setup should reflect both the instrument and the person playing it. I'll take into account how you like your guitar to feel and play rather than simply applying the same setup to every instrument.
When Does a Guitar Need a Setup?
You might consider having your guitar professionally set up if the action feels too high or low, you're experiencing fret buzz, the guitar is difficult to play, the intonation doesn't sound right, or you've made a significant change to string gauge.
Guitars can also change over time, so even an instrument that previously played well can benefit from a professional setup.
