So it looks that many of us will be stuck inside in the coming weeks, and hopefully spending extra time with our guitars.
You may take a look at one or other of your guitars and definitely think it needs some TLC.
As I will be self isolating here at the Feline workshop so it would be an ideal time to strike up a suggestion:
Why not use this time to ship a guitar to us (or even just a neck if it's a bolt on design) and have me do some fret fettling or even perform a full refret.
I'm pretty much up to date with all my work, so there shouldn't be much delay in getting stuff done.
Whilst I'll miss having the face to face discussion with you and the chance to look over your guitar together we can have a good chat by phone or email /message and I will try to give the same level of friendly help and advice as you'd normally get from us.
The guitar or neck will be fret dressed in our neck jig set up with your preferred string gauge, so it will take into account the normal tensions that your neck would be under.
Fret dressing will be £120
Refrets will start at £300, plus any new parts like new nuts etc
Shipping will be charged at cost.
Let me know if you are interested....
Here is a description of a fret dress process
We have a surrogate body so we can work on just a Fender style neck sent to us

We have just done some work on a lovely acoustic this week for one of the forum members who often ships things to us.

Been uploading old tracks I recorded ages ago and hopefully some new noodles here.
The yard is nothing but a fence, the sun just hurts my eyes...
Also I'd say to use the most reliable safest shipper, but still pack it like it need to survive Yodel/Parcelforce or whoever
