From the reviews
I had an issue with my Fender Stratocaster; sound wasn't coming through. Steve took a quick look and immediately diagnosed the problem, and had the right tools for the job. Was very patient with explaining everything he was doing. Very friendly, and good rates too. I feel like I have a brand new guitar!
Had a great experience getting my Strat modded by Steve. He is knowledgeable, friendly, and communicated throughout every step of the process. He will absolutely be my first choice next time I need a mod or repair job!
Steve is the man! Saved my baby’s life and installed a Barbera pickup in my new Rogerio santos 7 string classical. Maintained the beauty and intonation just right. Nice and funny dude too.
Fixed by Bass guitar that was cracked at head of the neck(thought it couldn’t be fixed. He Put it back together and clean it up for me. Love my final results. Thanks again, great work.🫡🫶🤘
Lessons at Harlem Fret Works
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Harlem Fret Works. If you're signing up a beginner (or restarting yourself), a quick call ahead answers the three things that matter: which instruments they teach, whether the schedule has openings at the time you actually need, and what a first lesson costs. There's no wrong first guitar — a good teacher will happily work with whatever you walk in with, and a shop that teaches usually keeps affordable starter instruments on hand for exactly this reason.
