A luthier is a person
who makes and fixes stringed instruments.This Is how I've been
making my living for the past 19 years, fixing all kinds of guitars,
banjos, mandolins and the occasional kora, zither, autoharp and
balalika!
CAN YOU ANSWER YES TO ANY OF THESE QUESTIONS?
IS
THE ACTION ON YOUR INSTRUMENT TOO HIGH?
ARE YOU
CONSIDERING USING IT AS A CHEESE CUTTER?
DOES YOUR
ELECTRIC GUITAR PLAY OUT OF TUNE?
DOES THE
FINGERBOARD OF YOUR INSTRUMENT RESEMBLE A SKI SLOPE?
DID YOU
OPEN YOUR CASE TO FIND YOUR INSTRUMENTS HEADSTOCK BROKEN?
IS IT
TIME FOR YOU TO FINALLY HAVE A PICKUP INSTALLED SO YOU CAN PLAY
AS LOUD AS THE DRUMMER?
DID YOU
LEAVE YOUR GUITAR A LITTLE TOO CLOSE TO THE WOODSTOVE THIS WINTER?
WOULD
YOU LIKE SOMEONE TO SHOW YOU THE SECRET OF HOW TO CHANGE YOUR
STRINGS?
IS YOUR PICKGUARD PEELING OFF?
IS YOUR
INSTRUMENT MAKING STRANGE BUZZING SOUNDS?
HAVE THE
AIRLINE GORRILLAS BEEN PLAYING FOOTBALL WITH YOUR INSTRUMENT?
WOULD
YOU LIKE SOMEONE TO SHOW YOU THE SECRET OF HOW TO CHANGE YOUR
STRINGS?
I could
go on, but if the answer is yes to any of these
questions....
