CUSTOMER REVIEWS:
Great Book! Highly reccomended -
This book is a great resource for anyone wanting to learn about guitar repair and maintenance. Personally, I'm just a guitar player that's tired of running to a guitar tech every time I need a seasonal truss rod adjustment. This book lays out very clearly the types of maintenance that are necessary for acoustic, electric, and bass guitars. My only critique is that the book focuses more on Gibson, Martin, and Fender guitars. For the 80% of the guitar community that uses these guitars, this is great! For me, I play a Taylor and a G&L (which is really close). It would be great to have a little more "universal" information. BUT, this is a very small issue. If you use common sense, the principles in this book can be applied to virtually all guitars.
The most important thing is that I used the techniques in this book and setup my Taylor 414ce, and now it plays AMAZING!!! Plus, I now know the proper ways to maintain and care for my gutiar so it will last for years!!!
This book is a must have for EVERY guitar player that has a guitar that they want to keep sounding great, playing great, and well maintained.

If you own a guitar you need this book! -
I currently own seven guitars. I tried repairing/restoring an old, cheap guitar a few years back and ending up with a pile of worthless junk.
Since purchasing this book all my remaining guitars sound better than ever. My first undertaking after reading this book was the restoration of my first guitar bought new 1965. Its plays like it was new and looks better than it has in years (many years). I have since used this book as my guide to a Gibson Les Paul restoration, a Yamaha BB1200S restoration, clean-up & set-up up on a couple vintage guitars, and was confident enough to do the setup an a new Gretsch I purchase a couple months ago.
I have done setup and cosmetic work on two friends' guitars as well.
This book has paid for itself many times over.
Guitar Player Repair -
My son was happy to get it for Christmas and feels he will use it a lot.
Not for guitar "Players" -
This book is for Luthiers, not an ordinary Joe. I found the directions to be scattered and not in an order where things are made simple. Only certain brands are highlighted. This may be a great book for guitar techs. In fact, it should be called "The guitar technician's guide...." NOT "The guitar PLAYERS guide....." But then they wouldn't sell so many copies then would they? I'm thoroughly disappointed. This book will either go to a used book store, or in the trash next to the $600.00 guitar with a stripped truss rod that I thought I had the know-how to adjust.
