Hi Everyone, just to let you all know I run a repair shop for electric guitars, basses and amplifiers in the Modesto CA area. The shop has been open 5 years, I don't pay for adds, its been just cards and word of mouth, no website either. I do Marshall amp Warranty for starters. I also fix and solve all kinds of mysterious tuning, fret, nut or bridge and action issues with basses and guitars such as sharp fretting or buzzing but the note is correct when the note is played open. I'm also a top 40 musician covering a range of 50s, 60's 70's, 80's, some 90's music. I've been repairing amps 40 years and guitars/basses 15 years, I also fix Floyd Rose issues. So ask questions here on the forum or call my business line 209 596 - 9478,
Mon - Fri 10am - 5pm, Sat 11am - 4pm. closed Sunday

Cool, I am here in Fresno, Calif. How much would you charge for an maintenance job on a 1986 Carvin X-100B ?
I had a guy rig up my amp to have the 5 band EQ shared on both channels after I got it new from Carvin in 1986. Then in 1989, I sent my X-100B in for a repair at the Carvin Factory, an idiot at the repair shop there, rigged it to the way it was originally sent to me, where the 5 band EQ was only assignable to only one channel at a time.

That year Carvin changed the X-100B from 6l6's to EL34's and my clean channel has been very shrilly to the point of being usless unless I have a special digital programmed EQ from my rack to compensate , I think they put in caps to the new specs of the EL34 amp instead of the 6L6 specs which were need for my amp.
