Scott is the most unprofessional owner I've ever come across. I originally brought my guitar into…read morehim on a Saturday because I was getting fret buzz on my acoustic electric. He told me it just needs a neck adjustment and it would be $35 and it would be done on Tuesday. The guitar is only worth about $300 but Scott assured me it would be like new once his tech works on it. Someone else called me on Tuesday and told me that it's not just the neck - the frets need to be filed down and it would be done the following Tuesday because the tech is only in once a week. The price would be $80. I should have just bought a new guitar at that point but it was already there so I agreed to wait a week. I called every week for a month and they kept telling me it would be done the next week. Finally, after a full month of what should have been a 3 day job, they call me and tell me it's all set. I go in and tell Scott that I'm frustrated that I waited a month when he and his workers promised me a week. He was condescending and rude and told me that I should have known a job like this takes a long time. An employee brought my guitar down and started playing it and it still had fret buzz on the top two strings. The tech told me to bring it back next week and he'll do more work to it. It's been a week now and the buzz is back on all 6 strings worse than ever so I'm not bringing my guitar back there. Now I'm out $80, didn't have a guitar for a month, and my guitar is worthless so I have to buy a new one. I'm in spitting distance of Smash Music and I'll never go there again because of Scott's unprofessionalism, carelessness, and lies. I'll be sure to let all of my local musician friends not to support this guy.

As a drummer, I instantly recognized Edward as a top tier professional musician. What surprised me…read morewas the level that he teaches at. The way he uses humor to get the lesson across, holds my children accountable and keeps them focused has really impressed me. From the very first introductory lesson, it was very clear to me that Edward is both a professional musician and an excellent teacher. In my experience, it's not very often that you find an excellent musician and an excellent teacher in one person. Update, It's been almost 4 years since my now 15 year old daughter started lessons and I could never have imagined the progress she's made. Simply Amazing! If you're contemplating learning to play the piano, I highly recommend Bemish Green Piano Studio!

Five or so calls later and I got to talking with Scott at Naked Guitar Repair. He came off as a good dude who was really comfortable with guitars and confident in his work, so even though I had found a cheaper option, I drove over to Madbury to meet Scott. His shop is located in the same lot as a landscaping business and is entered through the side door under the green awning along the right-hand side of the building. The space is refreshingly unfinished, with tools lining the perimeter workbench spaces and guitars in various states of build hanging along the walls. The real look of the place was the first of a few indications that I had chosen the right repair shop for my old Yamaha. Scott looked up from his work and received me warmly into his workshop. He deftly inspected the guitar, played a Spanish riff to check its original condition, and concluded that it was in great shape, definitely worth cleaning up. Throughout the "interview" he was really friendly and shared a great deal of information about his history with guitars; during this conversation I also came to learn that Scott builds electric guitars from scratch under the name Stonewall Instruments in this same space (another indication that my Yamaha was in good hands). He was even willing to work with me on the price of the work. I picked up the guitar a few days later, and, needless to say, it sparkled and sang. I'll try to include a photo of it with this post, but you should just take my word for it -- the guitar glows like it was touched by a experienced perfectionist and is matched by the sweetest tone, new strings tight and sharp. Can't be more happy with the "upgrade" Scott was able to bring out of her. Not only do I recommend Naked Guitar Repair to anyone looking for a honest conversation about a guitar in need, but I'm personally committed to returning to the business when Scott has his annual Stonewall Instruments open house. Hope this helps. Be well!
