Services
| Service Name | Description | Rate (USD) |
| General Amplifier Tune-up and Re-tube | General clean-up of chassis, clean and tighten tube sockets, install new tubes and adjust bias. | $35 + tubes |
| Troubleshooting and Repair | Toubleshooting is free! A quote is given once the problem is identified. | $50/hr + parts |
| True-Bypass Mods | Most of todays pedals are not wired for "true-bypass" operation. What this means is that your guitar signal is always passing through some of the electronics in the pedal, even when it's turned off! This can greatly affect your guitar's tone, especially if you use a lot of pedals. Rate is typical for a "Tube Screamer" type pedal. | $40 |
