From the reviews
My guitar never played better. My guitar had issues with the trapezoid inlays lifting and I asked for a setup. Darrell said it would be no problem. After speaking with him in a short time I realized that his skill level far exceeded my current guitar issues.
If you play guitar, you need to call Darrell to work on it. Seriously, just do it. Even if you think your guitar is playing fine, I can almost guarantee you that Darrell will get it playing better. Whether you just need a simple setup or you need an actual repair, Darrell's got you covered.
Darrell is THE BEST. I've been playing guitar for over 40 years, and I've never met anyone who cares more about the instruments he works on than Darrell. Not only is his work impeccable, but his prices are more than reasonable. Darrell is friendly and an all around pleasure to work with.
Darrell, Darrell... Truth be told, he is both a tremendous guitar luthier and an incredible guy. He left my guitar feeling like it's been played for ages (you know that sweet sound of an older guitar) and he's a jolly good fella. The guy I trust most with my guitar.
