What's on the wall
“I'm beyond thrilled with the service and attention to detail, especially given that a classical guitar can be temperamental and difficult.”
“He's also doing modifications to my electric banjo that required some outside the box thinking.”
“Your new Luthier is here; Garrett Riley is making guitars, basses, and he's taking in instruments for services.”
“I trust Garrett fully with conserving my collectible handmade flamenco guitars some of which are very old.”
“In my over 50 years as a musician, I’ve worked with many guitar techs, repair persons and even some Honest-to-God skilled Luthiers.”
Brands they deal
“I was having electronics issues with my Fender P-Bass and brought it in.”
“I have an old Gibson RB-250 that now plays better than the day I bought it thanks to an amazing set up by Garrett.”
“My SE - CE 24 was great off the shelf and indistinguishable from a higher priced PRS after Riley's set-up imo.”
What players say again and again

From the reviews
Garrett is awesome! Friendly, courteous and respectful of one’s instrument. I had him fix wiring on this Tele of mine and couldn’t be happier! I will take my guitars to him in the future.
Snohomish County, North Enders, Eastside listen up. Your new Luthier is here; Garrett Riley is making guitars, basses, and he's taking in instruments for services. Close to the freeway on Everett Mall Way is where you find Riley Guitars. A comfy demo room with amps and guitars await you.
I recently had Riley Guitars do a re-fret and some bridge work on my 1923 Lyon & Healy parlor acoustic, and it came out flawlessly. The turn-around is always so fast, but without sacrificing any attention to detail. To be honest, I only go to Riley Guitars for work on my guitars.
In my over 50 years as a musician, I’ve worked with many guitar techs, repair persons and even some Honest-to-God skilled Luthiers. But I can count on one hand the true Artisans I have had the pleasure of meeting; Garrett Riley of Riley Guitars is one of those select few.
