*LONG POST*
When I started Strings & Setups I didn't know what to expect. I met alot of great people and got to work on a ton of very cool guitars. This post is bittersweet - I will be moving and unfortunately not able to regularly serve the Southwestern Ontario guitar community. I am heading north to Muskoka where I hope to continue this great opportunity to connect with something I love. I held off on a few of these photos because I thought this post might be coming.
For my farewell to Woodstock post I wanted to use these great pieces.
I met a massive Green Day fan (I too love Green Day) he modded out his own version of 'blue'.. Billie Joe's famous guitar (swipe for comparisons), he owns (and let me play) a rare Dookie drive pedal (special for the 25th anniversary of the album), and to top it all off had me work on a Gibson J-180 that Billie also famously plays. These jobs were a career highlight for me.
Everyone I've met down here don't worry I will be around, shoot me a message and we may be able to get you taken care of (if you're ever up my way reach out as well). I look forward to what the future has in store and carrying this business on in a new location. Cheers everyone thanks for letting me work on your prized possessions ðĪ-Adam
