Our Services

Our 13-point setup process guarantees low action and fast guitar play. It includes an initial assessment, fret polishing, fretboard maintenance, electronics inspection and cleaning, restringing, measuring and setting neck relief, measuring action, adjusting string height (action), adjusting tremolo springs, intonation, setting pickup heights, and final cleaning and play by feel.

Our acoustic guitar setups follow the same process as our electric guitar setups with a few slight tweaks.  We will transform your acoustic guitar into an instrument that's effortless to play with our expert setup.  We will get your acoustic guitar playing as smooth and fast as possible. Because of the lack of electronics, acoustic guitar setups are priced slightly lower than electric setups, unless it's an electric acoustic. Please call, text, or email for accurate pricing.

We will level, crown and polish your frets to a mirror shine. Price includes a full setup. This service eliminates buzzing and uneven frets, transforming your guitar into a high-performance, buzz-free instrument. This will take your playing experience to the next level! Call, text, or email for the most accurate pricing.

Take your Floyd Rose-equipped guitar to the next level with Mad Dawg's specialized setup. It includes everything in our electric guitar setup with some special enhancements for your Floyd-Rose bridge. We will level the bridge, perfectly balancing the Floyd Rose for stable performance. We will dial in the tremolo springs to ensure smooth operation, tune to your desired tuning, get your intonation as perfect as possible, and give it a final dial-in. We will also inspect your guitar for additional issues and let you know if something needs attention. Our goal is to have your Floyd Rose performing flawlessly.

Our 13-point bass setup follows the same process as our 13-point guitar setup. Ole Mad Dawg is a bass player himself, so your bass is sure to get the same love and attention you would give it, and much more. He will inspect your bass for any additional issues and inform you of anything that might need attention. We guarantee your bass will feel, play, and sound better than ever before.

Bad or scratchy pots? Bad pickups? Worn or broken output jack? We can handle it all. Don't like your current pickups, pots, knobs, capacitor, or pre-amp, and want to change them out ? We can do that too. Call, text, or email for pricing.

Buzzing frets when playing open strings? You may need a nut replacement. Intonation at the 1st fret is always sharp? You may need  your nut slot(s) filed. Either way, we've got you covered. Mad Dawg uses Tusq nuts to replace your old one, as we find they have superior sound quality and durability. Replacements are $85 not including the price of the nut. Filing prices for high nut slots varies based on the number of slots that need adjustment and time taken to complete the repair, but should take an hour or less. Please call, text, or email for the most accurate pricing based on your situation.
