From the reviews
Marcus is a class act. Extremely knowledgeable and a joy to talk to about all things guitars. Rates are more than fair and he has very fast turnaround times for full setups. On more involved projects when I'm unsure about something, he will always have great advice and recommendations.
I got my Stratocaster set up with Marcus and he did a great job. Low action and smooth playing. He’s easy to chat with and is great at explaining. Also, very quick turn around of 2 days which was much faster than the quotes I heard from other places.
Selling or trading gear at MR Guitar Service
MR Guitar Service comes up for buying and trading used gear — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the trip go better. First, bring the whole package: the case or gig bag, the original tremolo arm or bridge parts, the paperwork if you have it — a complete rig is worth real money more than a bare instrument, and it saves the back-and-forth of "can you bring the case in?" Second, know that trade credit almost always beats the cash offer, usually by a healthy margin — if you're upgrading anyway, price your old gear as a trade against the new one before you take cash. Either way, expect the offer to be below what the gear sells for on the wall; the gap is the store's margin for setup, warranty, and sitting on it until the right buyer walks in.

Homey space where the owner repairs guitars and basses, plus building some boutique models.
