Whiskeytown Stringed Instrument Repair & Service

Awesome old Peavey T-60 in the shop this week. Needed a full rewire and new pots after years of people making an absolute mess in there. A fret level. Setup. And I brought the pickguard back from the super glue abyss with some careful sanding and buffing. Standing tall now and ready to break some backs and hearts. These T-60’s sound incredible when fully dialed in.

Go catch to see it in action.

It’s been a loooong time since I’ve posted on here. I frequently get questions like “are you still even doing repairs cause you never post?”, so I figured I would finally do one.

Honestly, I just don’t really like doing the social media thing, have always felt weird about advertising myself, and the shop has been so busy that I haven’t made it a priority. I am absolutely still doing repairs and the shop stays busy all the time, so hit me up. Maybe I’ll try to do more of these. 🤷‍♀️

Figured I would feature these two. Go check out this Saturday downtown Peoria at the Riverfront stage. Always stoked to get these shredder’s ripsticks dialed in. On the strat I did a refret with the most excellent fret wire, installed a , rewired the electronics with nice cloth wire, and swapped it over to this rad pickguard picked up. ‘s bass got a much needed fret level, all new stealthy hardware, and a rewire with a set of pickups. Both are sounding on point so catch ‘em in action this weekend!

Today’s the day. is a book lovingly created to document the Peoria underground punk scene and today we will be celebrating with an all day show highlighting some of those bands. I feel lucky to have worked on a whole lot of amazing musicians in the Peoria DIY and underground scene’s gear and I decided to specifically highlight a few that may be used today, and one specifically I know we all wish was gonna be played. 🖤🖤🖤

Much love to all my brothers and sisters in the Peoria music scene. See ya in a few minutes. Also my band, , goes on at 4pm. 😉🥰😚

Installed some pickups, and got this all dialed in for of and

Slightly challenging install requiring routing, making leather gaskets, and some pickguard customization to accommodate these massive tone machines. Can’t wait until quarantine is over to catch these in action.

Gorgeous 60th anniversary Fender American made tele (2006). Mint condition. $1000 obo

I don’t normally sell stuff but I’m helping the owner sell this guitar, so please get in touch if you’re interested. These normally go for 1200-1500 so it’s a pretty good deal.
Just set it up and will adjust it for different tuning/strings if you want to buy it and prefer something other than standard tuning/10 gauge strings. This ones a chunk. Definitely not a lightweight. Super chimey. Very impressed with this tele.
