From the reviews
Dan Africano is far and away the best guitar technician I’ve ever worked with. Skilled, knowledgeable, helpful, and communicative, he completes his work with passion and laser-like precision. My guitars have never played better. Did I mention he’s also a killer musician on top of his vast technical knowledge?
I had some issues with my acoustic guitar and was referred to Dan. He was very flexible and did an awesome setup! He was extremely knowledgeable and identified the issues very quickly. Excellent prices and service. Dan was great at communicating and was extremely professional and nice.
Simply put, Dan is a bass whisperer. I’ve never met someone with as much deep knowledge and advice for getting your bass to sing. He setup my Fender P bass (pickup adjustment, truss rod & intonation, and recommended flat wounds).
Dan did a setup, fret-level, and pick-up swap for my guitar and I am completely floored by his work. He might as well have handed me back a different guitar. It plays phenomenally and he even swapped out a faulty input jack for free. Fair prices especially considering the quality of his work.
