Crafting the Sound of Austin, One Player at a Time
At Tanglewood Forest Setups, I believe your instrument shouldn’t just be a tool—it should be an inspiration.
Your Time Matters In a city that never stops playing, you shouldn’t have to wait weeks to get your guitar back on the stand. While many shops in town face 14-day backlogs, I prioritize a 48-hour turnaround for setups and standard repairs. For an Austin musician, two weeks without an instrument isn’t just an inconvenience—it’s a missed gig.
The Builder’s Perspective As the craftsman behind Cave Guitars, I bring a maker’s eye to every repair. Whether it’s a vintage heirloom or a road-worn workhorse, your instrument receives the same precision and artistry I pour into my handcrafted, bespoke builds. I don’t just look at factory specs; I look at how you play, ensuring every adjustment is tailored to your unique touch.
Services Built for the Austin Scene:
Precision Setups: Eliminating buzz and maximizing playability, customized to your specific genre and attack.
Expert Repairs: From structural restoration to complex electronic overhauls, handled with the care of a custom luthier.
Performance Partnerships: I’m not just filing a nut or adjusting a bridge; I’m helping you find the true “voice” of your instrument.
I’m proud to be a part of the Austin music community. When you choose Tanglewood Forest Setups, you aren’t just getting a fast fix—you’re working with a local craftsman who is as invested in your sound as you are.
