Location: Olympia WA USA | Does anyone know of a Western Washington repair expert? My guitar is in great shape, the problem is the strings are a little high off the fretboard. I'd like to get the neck adjusted and perhaps the bridge. I'm not willing to do this on my own. If possible, I'd like to watch the repair so I could do it myself the next time. :confused: |

They always have a good one working on their stuff. |

Location: Upper Left USA | I could go through the process with you as well but I won't be headed to Tacoma until I start my shopping on the 18th... 8-J
Andrew, aka Edensharvest is in the Oly area too. He is a trustworthy and capable Ovationista too. |

Location: Olympia WA USA | To everyone, that you for all the advice. I was doing some roaming around and thinking about doing the bridge adjustment and truss rod adjustment. However, there was a long string of posts that ended up with something about the back end of a cow and I felt a little faint. I'll contact Edenheart and Ted Brown in Tacoma. Thanks again. |
