Pickup swaps, pickup installation

A good quality pickup can transform your guitar. They can be expensive, but usually worth every penny.

For acoustic guitar, there are many pickup and preamp systems available, each with their pros and cons, and each with varying degrees of skill required to fit them. Ease of fitting and results produced can vary significantly, leading me to be rather selective about what jobs of this category I take on.

My all time favourite acoustic guitar pickup can be fitted with no preamp and requires no saddle/saddle slot work – check out the K&K Pure Mini –

Electrical problems

Electrical problems can be quite evasive but with the correct diagnostic equipment (a multimeter!) and experience, most problems can be solved. Some are actually very straightforward – a broken connection at the jack socket or a pot. Because of their nature I cannot offer quotes for electrical problems.
