“I was having major trouble finding a trustworthy place to get my guitar set up in CT, and from the moment I called Chris I knew bringing my guitar to 812 was the right decision. Chris is friendly, welcoming, knowledgable, and extremely passionate about what he does. To top it off my guitar sounds better now than it has in years (maybe ever). I highly recommend Chris to anyone who needs anything from a basic set up to a major repair - he can do it all.”

“Chris took my old beat-up guitar and made it look and play significantly better than the day I bought it. Not only was he friendly and professional, he also answered all my questions and gave me some good tips for the future. I feel very lucky to have found this place and cannot recommend the service here enough!”

“Discovering Chris has been a godsend. He hands down knows his craft in and out. I don’t even consider letting anyone else touch my guitars... EVER. He makes my guitar playing feel like butter . I can fly up and down the neck because of his setups. 5 star guy gets a 5 star review! Thanks Chris! 🤘🏻.”
