String Club-How does it work?
Step 1: Fill out the form
Customers interested in signing up for our String Club will need to fill out the "Form for Submission." This creates a profile of your instrument, which strings you are interested in, as well as the frequency in which they will be replaced. I will then contact you to work out a time and date for you to bring in your guitar for inspection.
Step 2: Bring in the guitar
After you've dropped off your guitar for its thorough inspection, I will follow up with my findings and or recommendations should the guitar need any repairs or if the guitar is ineligible for our String Club. Guitars that are ineligible for our String Club are ones that cannot be adjusted into tune and or a comfortable playing condition.
Step 3: Pay for your service
Payment for the String Club is in full. Depending which strings and which frequency of service you choose, including sales tax, will determine your price.
Step 4: Play your guitar!
Go and play. I will contact you based on your chosen frequency to workout times and dates for you to drop off and pick up your guitar. If you forget when the last time you used your service, or how many you have left, you're welcome call me at 530.661.2349 or login to our website and see how many service you have used so far.
Restringing Process
Step 1: Recycle Strings
My process begins by removing your guitars old strings and recycling them. I've partnered with D'Addario and Terracycle who will re-smelt the old metal to make new clean steel for future guitar strings.
Step 2: Hydrate
Next I'll add lemon oil to both hydrate and clean your guitars fingerboard. While the wood is hydrating, I polish the frets with #0000 steel wool.
Step 3: Installation
For optimal tone and minimal wear, I bend the ball end of the strings to meet gently and firmly against your guitars bridge plate. Improper string installation can cause excessive damage, shortening the life of your guitars original bridge plate. The vast majority of acoustic guitars do not have locking tuners. For this reason I use a locking tie method for every steel string guitar restring I perform.
Step 4: Lubrication
For smooth tuning action, I add graphite to the nut pocket of all 6 strings. Players who are string benders always appreciate this little touch.
Step 5: Wearing in the strings
Lastly I'll stretch your new strings to give a "worn-in" like feel to the player.
