Sounds like you had a horrible experience. I had just the opposite.\r
I took my 1986 Les Paul Studio in to have a new pickup put in and they took great care of me. The guitar tech put the new pickup in and then set it up at no charge. That set up cost me $30.00 at another store that I wont mention because that is not cool. He also polished it and reconditioned the fret board. It looked awesome. Those guys at Swing City Music are way cool and seem to care! Just my thoughts!
