Guitar Setup

A complete professional setup — neck relief, action, intonation, fret level, and restring so your guitar plays its absolute best.

Guitar Setup

A great guitar setup is the single most impactful thing you can do for your playing. Even an inexpensive instrument becomes significantly more playable and inspiring when it's properly set up, and even a high-end guitar can fight you if it hasn't been touched since leaving the factory.

1337 Sound's setup process starts with a full inspection of the instrument's frets, nut, bridge saddles, and truss rod. We set neck relief to the string gauge and playing style you specify, adjust action to your preferred height, set intonation across all strings, polish the frets, lubricate the nut slots, and finish with a fresh set of your preferred strings. Your guitar leaves feeling like a completely different instrument.
