Besides that, it depends very much on where you're from and who you go to. If you bought the guitar in a store, they might even do it for free. A few years ago, I had a luthier set up one of my guitars. It took a few minutes, and I had to pay for an hour (of course). In Norway that was a little over 50 euro. Probably cheaper where you're from You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

Otherwise he will just set it up for his own preference (or no-ones preference). You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

It's going to cost me around $70.00 (strings, etc.) The luthier is actually a nationally accredited luthier who is licensed with ESP, Ibanez, Jackson, Fender and more. He's not only getting it set to drop-C but he's intonating it as well. I'm pretty excited for this thing to get out of the shop! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

That doesn't sound too expensive Trey, I would've said around the $50 mark, which is about what I charge over here (£35 including strings).
