About me:
Welcome to Portland, OR guitar repair... I've spent the last 6 years in New York City working for two of the best guitar/repair shops in NYC (Peekamoose and The Music Zoo) where I was fortunate enough to work on about every type of guitar out there. Now I'm back in Portland and ready to help you! Drop me a line if you've got a problem with one of your instruments. I'm available everyday by appointment. All my work is done out of my basement workshop on SE 12th and Stephens (4 blocks south of Hawthorne).

I repair guitars, basses, mandolins, banjos, etc. I do professional work at affordable prices with fast turnaround. Please email if you have any questions or want to schedule an appointment to stop by. I'm available everyday.

I also work part-time at Everyday Music downtown on Burnside so stop in if you're looking for new tunes.

This is what I've been listening too lately...

Matt,
Just want to thank you again for doing a superb job of resurrecting my old Giannini. I'd forgotten how much I enjoyed playing it all those years ago, it really is a joy to hear again.
I'm really looking forward to the Fender you're customizing for me. Can hardly wait.
All the best,
Jim

Matt ... another guy, Chuck Barrows, may be contacting you too. He's a friend from the old hood like Bob D. I guess he's got an acoustic that needs some serious love. He live in NY or Jersey ... can't remember. Peace out bro. Talk to you soon.
