1. 4-axis Alignment of the guitar neck
Each guitar neck is checked and adjusted to insure that it is true and straight to insure proper alignment on all axis. This step
insures proper action and allows for more accurate and easier guitar tuning, playing and set-up in the following steps.
2. Inspect and Lube the guitar tuning gears
Before installing the guitar tuning gears, each one is checked thoroughly. Each tuning gear is adjusted so that there is no
play in the mechanism. They are then lubricated to insure smooth and even movement to make your guitar tune accurately.
3. Potting the guitar pickups
We dip the pickups in hot wax to reduce squeal and unwanted guitar feedback.
4. Prep the guitar body
Before installing the guitar electronic components, great care is taken to insure that all wires are properly routed, spaced, and
grounded to insure years of trouble free service with your guitar.
5. Level and polish the frets
This insures that all of the guitar frets are level, eliminating any possibility of fret buzz due to unevenness.
6. Radius the guitar strings
Most guitar necks have a contour over the top of the neck. We adjust the strings to make sure that height of each string
follows the contour of the guitar neck.
7. Adjusting the overall guitar string height and the action
Once we set the contour and radius of the guitar strings, it’s time to adjust the overall height of the strings from the top of
the frets to the bottom of the guitar strings.
8. Set the guitar intonation
This step is done twice. The intonation is set two times with a 24 hour "seat-in" period in between to allow the guitar to
properly re-seat to the new adjustments.
