Recently had my Fender Duo Sonic set up by Eli. This is my first guitar and Eli was extremely helpful in explaining what he would be doing to my guitar. It sounds great now! Nicest guy - will be coming back soon!

I went to Eli to get my PRS set up - it was $75 + $6 for strings. I picked it up a few days later, and it was worth every penny; my guitar plays like a dream now, and I would go back to him without hesitation. Its a great low-key shop and Eli is definitely very professional.

Best guitar tech. Going back to him if I need anything in the future. Highly recommended and very skilled.

For those of you who want a short review, I will just briefly state that Eli is an exceptional guitar technician that I would recommend to anyone looking to get any and all modifications to their guitar. He is clearly very knowledgable with guitars, but additionally, he is very responsive, friendly, and fair when it comes to pricing.Now the longer version—I reached out to Eli and was able to book an appointment with him very quickly. When I brought my guitar over and explained what I wanted, he immediately understood what needed to be done. I wanted to get my Fender Jaguar routed for new pickups, but my guitar needed a new pick-guard to fit them. However there were no preexisting models online that were exactly what I needed—so Eli offered to make it himself. Eli not only matched the price of a custom pick-guard, but made discounts on both the pick-guard he would make for me, as well as the labor overall. The final price was far less than I anticipated.Eli was super communicative to me throughout. He texted me at each stage of the process, and made it pretty clear when it was going to be done. I only had to wait one week for him to finish it. When the guitar was finished, he promptly let me know and I was able to get it that same day.Giving Eli 5/5 stars was an easy choice, as his service more than exceeded my expectations. I will definitely be going to him in the future for my guitar needs. This guy rocks!

Has such a wonderful experience, he is so nice and gave me a bunch of good info, and my bass has never sounded better. Just great all around!

The only one in LA that ACTUALLY cares about you and how YOU play.Professionalism at its best.Highly recommended

I broke the headstock on my LP. Repaired like new. Quick turn around, fair pricing.Thx dude!

In a city as large and musically active as Los Angeles is, It is incredibly hard to find quality instrument repair and maintenance. but now its a no brainer because honestly, Eli is the real deal. not only is he a genuinely nice and upfront person, he is an artist when it comes to repair. His work on my guitars been incredibly prompt, it honestly made them feel and play like new instruments perfectly tailored to my style of play. If youve had wonky experiences with repair in the past (and who hasnt, its a minefield out there, haha) put that worry aside and come to Eli, I honestly cant sing his praises enough. Just wow.

Great service. Great price. Very reasonable and friendly and accommodating to schedules

Great work on my tele/strat. He did a setup, intonation, installed a bridge and block, machined a brass nut, new volume pot. And all for a great price.

The best guitar setup I have ever had! I have been brining my boutique and vintage instruments that are valued well in the six figures to Eli for years, hes the only one the pros, and collectors trust. A true artisan, instrument builder, etc. You name it, he can do it and will blow your mind! Incredibly reasonable pricing, the nicest person I have met, especially in LA! Stop by and play any guitar he has setup for proof! Trust and go where the pros go! T
