 For the present Ed Beaver Guitars is in transition. I am no longer at Soundcheck, the location I was in for several years. The shop is still open and services are being provided there. As information becomes pertinent, I will post it.

Meanwhile, my contact information is as noted above. I am still repairing and building instruments. At your service.

A guy walks into the shop. He looks concerned and asks, "How do I make my guitar sound better?".

Response? ................... Lessons. He didn't get it.

 
A guy walks into the shop and asks, "Do you install that new thing that makes the guitar play in tune up and down the neck.

Response?................ "Did Chet Atkins, Lenny Breau or Les Paul have it? No?When you are that good, come back and ask again".

 
Advice:
In essence,the final effort to make a guitar play well is in the player. I have a customer whose response is to look for what is wrong. He has issues. All the players whom I admire usually look for the good and then we talk about tweaks. Sometimes, a guitar actually acts like wood and steel with equal tempered tuning. Perfection is in the heart first, then the hands, not the instrument. If you want preciseness, consider being a digital keyboard player. If you really want to be exact, consider playing alone a lot.

The opinions and philosophy are my own. It is my web page. I have a sense of humor and this is how I choose to express it.
