Killer guitar set up guy

Wow, I just got my gibson les paul back from Mark. Impressive work. He did go over the frets and fretboard, adjust the neck, intonate it and made adjustments to my string gauges. Also included were a lube of the saddles and nut. Plays better than ever and I have own it since new back in 1979. He is now doing my strat. Highly recommend !

He is in Emeryville near berkeley right off the freeway.

Here is his ad and a link to Yelp.

Hello guitar players,

Give your fingers a break and let me setup your guitar. I can make it play easier & sound better too. Weather it's a new "off the rack" guitar with a poor factory setup or your favorite axe you've had for years, I will treat it as my own and have it setup to your particular playing style & needs, SATISFACTION GUARANTEED.

I have 20+ years experience as a touring guitar tech and worked with:

Stanley Clarke, Keb' Mo', Glenn Hughes, Gregg Allman, Boz Scaggs, Lindsey Buckingham, Primus, Buckcherry, Vonda Sheppard, Clint Black, Pat Benatar, The Cult, Motley Crue, Elvis Costello, REO Speedwagon, Herb Alpert, Love / Hate, Sum 41, Nancy Wilson, Bad English, and Stabbing Westward..

My setups include:

- Neck evaluation & truss rod adjustment
- Bridge string hight adjustments (action)
- Adjust (shave) saddle on acoustics
- Nut height check & adjustment
- Setting pickups hight on electrics
- Conditioning the fretboard
- Clean, smooth and polish frets
- Inspect the headstock, tighten tuners
- Adjusting the intonation (strobe-tuned)
- Lubricate bridge, tuners and nut

The cost: $60.00 Plus strings
