What's on the wall
“Hired him to install a pickup in my acoustic and he fixed the bridge and action issues in the process, even fixed up a crack I didn’t know was there.”
“He repaired the acoustic electric Takamine I've had for 20 years, and now it plays and sounds even better than it did when it was brand new!”
“Sam installed new pickups, pots, and bridge in my jazz bass, as well as a setup - it plays like a dream and he was super easy to work with.”
“I'm really happy with how the guitar plays and sounds now and I would highly recommend Sam to people in the Austin area looking for a guitar tech.”

What players say again and again
“Sam installed new pickups, pots, and bridge in my jazz bass, as well as a setup - it plays like a dream and he was super easy to work with.”

From the reviews
Support local business: My first teacher said, "buy a cheaper guitar and take it to a luthier for a tune up." My Squier bass came from the factory with way too much action. Sam made it feel and sound like a true Fender. Check out the before and after...Delicious! It plays so much better.
Short Review: Sam is a hyper-skilled luthier that can make your guitar sound great. He is precise and perfect in his work. And, he is a great dude. Longer Review: Sam has worked on 5 of my guitars in the past 2 years.
Sam is a true Craftsman and a gentleman. I dropped off an Ibanez S Series Guitar for a full rewire, with a pretty long list of electronics mods and a box full of parts. Sam walked me through the entire process and even helped me decide on which electronic mods would be best for my playing style.
Have taken a number of guitars to Sam at Landis over the last year or so - it's a pleasure working with him every time. He's super knowledgeable about guitar repair work and guitars in general (no surprise, as he worked at Colling's guitars for years).
