Workshop Service

The Complete Setup

Stop fighting your instrument. The Complete Setup (£95) transforms an uneven, stiff, or buzzing guitar into an effortless, responsive musical tool tailored specifically to your string gauge and playing attack. Every adjustment is made in strict physical order for lasting stability.

Performing your own setup or curious about our tolerances? Learn the correct setup sequence (T.R.A.I.N. framework).

For sub-cent strobe accuracy at your own bench, download the free LuthierScan Pro Android Tuner or read our DIY Guitar Intonation Guide.

Notice single-fret buzzing or deep fret divots? Upgrade to The Complete Fret Service (£115) for complete beam levelling, crowning, and mirror polishing.

Combine your setup with The Complete Nut Service (£50) for maximum acoustic resonance and tuning stability (The Complete Setup + Bone Nut Bundle: £135 · Save £10).

Upgrading pickups? Book The Complete Pickup Installation or combine with setup in our £135 Bundle (Save £15–£25).

Cure scratchy volume controls or loose jacks with The Complete Electronics Health Check (£15 add-on).

Stage 1: Inspection & Geometry Scan

Evaluation of neck relief under tension, nut slot depths with digital feeler gauges, bridge radius matching, and potentiometer sweeps.

Stage 2: Truss Rod Calibration

Dialled to exact micro-relief tolerances, taking seasonal humidity into account to eliminate low-fret buzz without raising mid-range action.

Stage 3: Action & Radius Optimisation

Individual bridge saddles adjusted to replicate your exact fingerboard radius (7.25", 9.5", 12", or compound) at targeted string clearances.

Stage 4: Precision Strobe Intonation

Saddle lengths calibrated under playing posture using strobe precision (±0.01 cent accuracy) for pure chords up to the 22nd fret.

Stage 5: Cleanse, Hydrate & Mirror Polish

Full aesthetic reset with Clarity Wash finish cleanse, Resonance Balm tonewood feeding, and high-shine mirror fret buffing.
