I brought a guitar to JP guitars for a fret level and crown because it was experiencing some…read moreunusual fret buzz on the lower frets. I have done guitar setups and basic repair for 20+ years and a good setup did not alleviate the buzz. Jack gave an estimate turnaround of one week. 10 days later I inquired about the status. Nothing has been done yet. 2 hours later I was called to come pick up the guitar. The guitar had been setup, but has not been leveled or crowned, because Jack forgot to do it. Another week goes by and I'm called to pick it up again. Jack's apprentice told me that he, not Jack, did the fret level, which surprised me, but I assumed he was capable. I did expect Jack to do the repair, however, because that's what I was paying for. $180 out the door. The action had been set high, but I figured "Maybe Jack like it that way", so I took it home and set it up. 1.5mm on the high E, 2.0mm on the low E, slight neck relief. The same frets buzzed, in the same way as before. I am confident that no fretwork was done. I called Jack and told him the problem was still there and that I had expected him to do the job, not his apprentice. Jack said that he did the level, so did his apprentice lie? Did Jack? Jack told me that my action (1.5-2.0mm) was too low, then demanded that I bring another guitar to him to prove that the problem was the guitar, not me. I did not get a refund. I later took the guitar to another repair shop where I was told that a competent fretjob would have alleviated the buzz where it was occurring. Look, I've seen Jack's guitars in his shop and they're beautiful. I have no doubt that they also play beautifully. But, as far as my guitar was concerned, something didn't happen right. Either Jack's apprentice did the job (which I didn't pay him to do), or Jack did the job poorly (which I payed him to do well), or it didn't get done at all (which is theft). Not saying he isn't a good luthier, I just did not have a good experience whatsoever.
