Wild EVH tribute customer build. Did some fine-tuning for him. RIP EVH. #onthebench #whatsonyourbench #pittsburghguitarrepair #evh #eddievanhalen #vanhalen #stringwizards

This Squier bridge was tired of being propped up by a chopstick. New saddles and a thorough setup. #onthebench #backstagebench #stringwizards

Another re-fret in the books. The original frets on this Seagull Artist weren’t terribly worn, but they were very low and thin. The customer wanted to ditch the thin frets that were on the guitar and go with a ‘jumbo’ feel. I used @stewmac_guitar #0149 Wide/Medium. I’ve been using Stewmac wire for all of my re-frets lately and I’m super pleased with the quality (It should come as no surprise. Everything they make is high-quality.) I made a new bone nut for it as well. I’ll post more pics of the job from start to finish in my story. #stringwizards #whatsonyourbench #backstagebench #pittsburghguitarrepair #seagullguitars

Finished up a project for @99hartsmusic today. Full build with customer-supplied parts. The wiring kit is from @920dcustom. Lots of tweaking and fitting for this one, but it turned out super nice! Rumor is he’s gonna give this one away, so give him a follow and keep an eye out for that. If you have an idea for a project like this, let me know! #onthebench #backstagebench #stringwizards #whatsonyourbench #pittsburghguitarrepair

Found a brand new Sterling Axis hiding on a shelf. It was left over from the store and hadn’t sold before we had to close. I set it up for a friend from @truebeliever_jiujitsu who was looking for an electric. I do miss selling people guitars! #backstagebench #onthebench #stringwizards #whatsonyourbench

The final service crunch before vacation. I’ll be taking repair drop-offs again after August 10th. #onthebench #whatsonyourbench #backstagebench #pittsburghguitarrepair #stringwizards @ Backstage Guitars
