BEST SET-UP GUY IN VANCOUVER, BC?

Sign in to disble this ad
Would love to have a couple of my older basses tweaked and a new Fender BG-29 that is buzzing all over the shop set-up right. Anyone know who the best set-up guys are in my area? Thanks in advance...

I do all setups (except an upright) myself but if I had to choose I would go with Scott from Tom Lee on Granville (he used to work at Ruffus Music), amazing guy and great tech. You can also contact Jean from Long and McQuade (Terminal and Main). He is extremely knowledgeable and he will help you for sure. Regarding BG-29 you can go to Prussin music on Broadway. Great guys, great shop.
Hope this helps....

Misha works at Ruffus Music on Alma St. (I believe that's the same guy). He is great too but his expertise are mostly orchestral instruments.
