Greetings from Haywire
Custom guitars!  The home
of "Gig Ready Guitars" for
the working musician!
You need a Great Guitar!
To all my fellow guitar players:

I love guitars, and there's nothing like a new
guitar!  I like the tone, the way it feels in my
hands, and the way that I can make a guitar
sound "right" for any kind of music that I play.

Whether it's jazz, blues, country, hard rock,
R&B leads, guitar chords, or just working on
guitar tabs, all it takes is a flip of a switch, a
couple twists of the knobs, and I'm right where I
need to be.

I've bought a lot of guitars over the years, and
discovered that taking that beautiful new Strat or
Tele guitar out of the box was always just the
first step in finding the guitar that fit in my
hands the way that I imagined that it would
when it first caught my eye.

I found that my new guitar wouldn't be quite gig
ready until I did all of the little subtle tweaks,
repairs and modifications that would make it
play just the way I wanted it to when I got it out
onto the gig.

So... I'd dress the frets, get the intonation just
right, tweak the pick-ups, customize the
configuration a bit, and before you know it, I'd
be playing a guitar that felt like it was made to
be in my hands.

Playing music is always fun, but when I'm on
the gig with a guitar that feels just right ... it's
just pure guitar joy.

After  a while I thought;
 "Wouldn't it be great
to be able to buy a guitar that felt gig ready right
out of the box?"

With that thought in mind, I developed
Haywire's exclusive
8-point gig ready guitar
process  and
Haywire Custom Guitars was born.

When we set up a guitar with our
8-point gig-
ready guitar process  you can literally take that
guitar out of the case, tune up, and walk on
stage with a gig ready Haywire guitar that plays
like you've spent months to get it just right!  
That's why we call Haywire Custom Guitars ....

"Gig Ready Guitars For The
Working Musician!"

Yes! We Have Left-Hand Guitars!

















Our exclusive 8-point gig ready guitar process:

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
Upon 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  the 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

You know that Haywire Custom guitars offers "Pro" high-end guitars, but if you
were a  Professional Guitarist  looking for this type of product, you'd need to
understand why to choose Haywire over some of the larger competitors.

The real value that Haywire offers is its small-scale with greatly individualized
attention to customers, detail and playability to enable pros to play a guitar packed
with lots of attention and details of what  they need and want, rather than, say,
settling for an unready guitar "off-the-rack" in a Mall music store, should the guitar
be sub-standard in it's ability to play smoothly and trouble-free. We are experts in
that area.

Pros can rely on an instrument that they receive from Haywire Custom Shop. It will
be exactly to their specifications. Our guitars are just like the larger-scale
companies, but contain the same or upgraded quality components they want at a
more reasonable price with the added assurance of a ONE YEAR warranty on our
finished work.
