We all love our guitars, but over years of use some parts just wear out. 

Common Guitar Problems

  1. String Buzz - Most string buzz problems are solved with a proper setup. Some other causes are worn or raised frets, worn nut, or a warped neck.

  2. High Action - Again, a proper setup is the usual cause, but may be caused by a loose neck joint at the body, or a warped top sound board.

  3. Low Action - One more time with the setup, enough said. Other causes may be a warped neck or broken saddle.

  4. No Output (Electric) - This one could be anything. From a bad pickup to a loose jack. Trouble shooting these problems takes a knowledge of electronics, with the skill to do a good solder job. 

 From fret re-leveling to pickup and electronic repairs, Guitar Works offers professional repairs a great price.
