For a solid seven hours, guitar whizzes Michael Harron and Michael Standen will walk you through every step of a complete guitar setup—from neck relief to intonation, and everything in between. It doesn’t matter if you’re totally new to the game or you’ve been playing for years; they’ll guide you through the process, helping you get your guitar to feel perfect for your style.
The best part? After this one-day class, you’ll leave with the confidence to tackle guitar setups on your own at home. That means no more waiting for a pro to fix up your gear (and no more spending your hard-earned cash). Whether you’re tuning up your electric guitar or bass, you’ll learn tricks and tips that will save you time and money in the long run.
This isn’t a one-size-fits-all class—your guitar is as unique as your playing style, and your setup should be too. So, no matter if you’re rocking a classic Strat or wrestling with a tricky Floyd Rose or Evertune system, bring it along. They’re eager to help you sort it out.
Harron Custom Guitars has worked with big names like Parkway Drive, The Living End, Northlane, and Angus & Julia Stone, not to mention thousands of guitar players across Australia. So, when they say they understand all playing styles and guitar types, you can trust they’ve got you covered.
The class will cover 1-hour theory, covering the fundamentals of guitars and their importance, such as fret life/shape, fret seating and even nut profile.
5-hour practical session, covering everything from action, intonation, relief, fret polishing, and much more as you complete the step-by-step process under the guidance of experienced repairers.
