Don’t let your guitar hold you back!
Duane Eddy is my name sake and Dwain Edward is my name. I am the “Calgary Guitar Guy”. Welcome!
After many years playing and setting up guitars I am offing my knowledge as a service to local players to help them get their guitars set up to serve them. I will show you how to maintain your own guitars. I also buy and sell certified by me, properly functioning used instruments with measurements and put them through a refurbish to ensure: proper neck angle, functioning truss rod, backside of the pick guard with photos to show electronics, build out and record the profile of the guitar like string spacing, neck profile, Tuning peg operation, nut width, string height, neck relief, intonation and tremolo operation, Inspect for high frets, spot level and crown frets, Install new strings and polish.
After this process the guitar will in many cases be set up better than it was when it first left the factory. I have owned many guitars at various prices that have variations of all the above mentioned issues. I’ve seen $300 guitars that were set up better new than $3000 guitars
There are plenty of better players than me out there with actual credentials however I would say I rank up there with those who have more than 10,000 hours of hands on experience with guitars and have bought and sold countless guitars over the years.
Our journey as players is never over as long as we keep playing; there are infinite challenges and opportunities with guitar to keep us engaged. I’m excited it’s keeping its relevance again in modern music as an ambient support and synth instrument; not how I use it, but hay… I enjoy it!
