We are experts in the area of Custom Guitar setup, installation, repair, neck fretting, neck refinishing, neck fitting, alignment, and action adjustment and neck design. The Tremolo andLow-Low Action Set-Up!The Tremolo is Decked.
The electric guitar ‘Floating” tremolo or "trem" bridge is only Decked when the screws are tightened
under the tremolo cover plate in the back of the guitar body. Reasons to deck:
1- Better tuning stability 2- Lower action can be achieved 3- Consistent action everywhere If done properly the springs will be so tight that the tremolo will not move thereby rendering it blocked.
The re-sale value is much better if you don’t physically change anything that can’t be reversed since lots of players still want a trem or whammy bar on their guitars. Fortunately there is another benefit.
There is more sustain without the floating tremolo. If it’s blocked and it stays in perfect tune and it’s not permanent or invasive to your instrument and it’s completely reversible-then what’s not to like about that? Active ElectronicsThe battery is a 9 volt and is located under the tremolo compartment cover in the back of the guitar for easy accessAllows you to roll off your volume without losing the highs.Would you like being able to use the volume control... without sacrificing tone?Now You Can... As you turn your guitar's volume down, the pot allows some of the current to go to ground as opposed to the output.The frequencies that leave first are the highs, which leave the tone muddy and obscured without an "edge" on it to a discerning ear. When you lower your guitar's Volume control so does your tone's clarity. Your tone is now muddy & with too much bass. By adding active electronics your guitar will "Bleed" in more Treble as you turn your volume down.
Now you have much cleaner, articulate tones when rolling down the volume control.
It allows the treble frequencies to be re-introduced into the output for clarity and improved timbre.A better Low and High sound spectrum:1-error-correction of signals with enhanced clarity
2- preserve high end frequencies3-improved taper when rolling back your volume controlYour Stratocaster is now- More Functional Haywire Custom Shop"Building satisfied players one Haywire Custom guitar at a time!" * Great Tone and SustainThis is an excellent instrument.... for a serious player. If you take your playing seriously then take a great guitar to the gig with you. This instrument is very sweet and will serve you, the professional player, for many years to come.
You practice hard and you work hard on your playing! So... get a great tool to work with!
No roadblocks to your success as a guitarist!
WHAT IS A GUITAR CUSTOM SHOP? It occurred to us that guitar players really have very little understanding of the scope and purpose of a custom guitar shop. We discovered this quite accidentally by listening closely to some of the questions received over the last few years. For example, one question that still comes up often is, “Nice guitar-but how does it play"? That question always puzzles us. Why? Because it is our job as a #Custom Guitar Shop to simply make the #guitar play -how the player wants it to play. That is as good as it gets but guitar players are so accustomed to traveling from store to store looking for the right instrument rather than just making a decision then turning it over to us to make it right. A custom guitar facility is a smarter way to get what you need because we are the experts. It's not a players responsibility to get the guitar right-it's ours. After we make the necessary adjustments, tweaks, intonation checks, action and electronics changes, neck modifications and proper string adjustments-you have a great playing guitar that plays EXACTLY how you need it to play as a guitarist. What could be simpler?Assemblers NOTE when substituting your own necks: Be ready to make any adjustments necessary to make your project work with any necks and any necessary adjustments to make your neck and body fit together well. It takes skill it's not co-incidence. If you know what you're doing this is easy. If you don't-then leave this page.Remember to place your neck in the body you intend to use and drill holes in the neck so they will line up with this body. It may require you to do some work in the form of plugging some neck holes.
Some of you know that and we know that. The rest of you roll up your sleeves and don't complain. Most craftsmen realize- every neck may not fit every body as well as every body will not suit every neck. Sometimes holes will line up and
sometimes they won’t-so again, make sure you drill your OWN holes in your neck and plug any existing ones. Clamp and align prior to drilling neck holes. If you need to plug some holes then-by all means-do it. We cannot be responsible for
careless installation so-be sure you're competent before you buy anything requiring skills to assemble. If you're gonna "Do it yourself" then do it. We are aware that there are some differences between bodies and necks.
They are not all identical. A small space in the neck pocket however will not affect the playability
setup, neck installation or action adjustments. Fender often times uses shims in the pockets because of that reason.
There should be some space to move the neck right or left when adding a neck so as to get the margins even on the right and left sides of the fret board.
There is always craftsmanship involved with building and modifying guitars.Be ready to make any adjustments necessary to make your project work with any necks and make the necessary adjustments.If you feel that you don't have the skill in working with wood or guitar mods-please don't feel bad, instead-send us your project parts, we can do it, and we'll finish it for you.However you can also write or call us prior to your purchase and ask any questions you'd like.Send us your neck or body with your favorite strings and we'll mount the neck on it for you for just $45 plus return shipping.

We Ship World Wide!Haywire Custom Guitars 8-point gig ready guitar process...1. The 4-axis Alignment of the guitar neck. Each guitar neck is checked and adjusted to insure that it is true and straight to insure proper alignment on all axis. This step insures proper action and allows for more accurate and easier guitar tuning, playing and set-up in the following steps.
2. Inspect and Lube the guitar tuning gears. Before installing the guitar tuning gears, each one is checked thoroughly. Each tuning gear is adjusted-there is no play in the mechanism. They are then lubricated to insure smooth and even movement to make your guitar tune accurately.
3. Potting the guitar pickups-We dip the pickups in hot wax to reduce squeal and unwanted guitar feedback
4. Prep the guitar body-Before installing the guitar electronic components, great care is taken to insure that all wires are properly routed, spaced, and grounded to insure years of trouble free service with your guitar 5. Level and polish the frets-This insures that all of the guitar frets are level, eliminating any possibility of fret buzz due to unevenness.
6. Radius the guitar strings-Most guitar necks have a contour over the top of the neck. We adjust the strings to make sure that height of each string follows the contour of the guitar neck.7. Adjusting the overall guitar string height and the action.Once we set the contour and radius of the guitar strings, then to adjust the overall height of the strings from the top of the frets to the bottom of the strings.
8. Set the guitar intonation-This step is done twice. The intonation is set two times with a 24 hour seat-in period in between to allow the guitar to properly re-seat to the new adjustments.

The Tremolo andLow-Low Action Set-Up!The Tremolo is Decked.
The electric guitar ‘Floating” tremolo or "trem" bridge is only Decked when the screws are tightened
under the tremolo cover plate in the back of the guitar body. Reasons to deck:
1- Better tuning stability 2- Lower action can be achieved 3- Consistent action everywhere If done properly the springs will be so tight that the tremolo will not move thereby rendering it blocked.
The re-sale value is much better if you don’t physically change anything that can’t be reversed since lots of players still want a trem or whammy bar on their guitars. Fortunately there is another benefit.
There is more sustain without the floating tremolo. If it’s blocked and it stays in perfect tune and it’s not permanent or invasive to your instrument and it’s completely reversible-then what’s not to like about that?
The electric guitar ‘Floating” tremolo or "trem" bridge is only Decked when the screws are tightened
under the tremolo cover plate in the back of the guitar body. Reasons to deck:

Active ElectronicsThe battery is a 9 volt and is located under the tremolo compartment cover in the back of the guitar for easy accessAllows you to roll off your volume without losing the highs.Would you like being able to use the volume control... without sacrificing tone?Now You Can... As you turn your guitar's volume down, the pot allows some of the current to go to ground as opposed to the output.The frequencies that leave first are the highs, which leave the tone muddy and obscured without an "edge" on it to a discerning ear. When you lower your guitar's Volume control so does your tone's clarity. Your tone is now muddy & with too much bass. By adding active electronics your guitar will "Bleed" in more Treble as you turn your volume down.
Now you have much cleaner, articulate tones when rolling down the volume control.
It allows the treble frequencies to be re-introduced into the output for clarity and improved timbre.A better Low and High sound spectrum:1-error-correction of signals with enhanced clarity

WHAT IS A GUITAR CUSTOM SHOP? It occurred to us that guitar players really have very little understanding of the scope and purpose of a custom guitar shop. We discovered this quite accidentally by listening closely to some of the questions received over the last few years. For example, one question that still comes up often is, “Nice guitar-but how does it play"? That question always puzzles us. Why? Because it is our job as a #Custom Guitar Shop to simply make the #guitar play -how the player wants it to play. That is as good as it gets but guitar players are so accustomed to traveling from store to store looking for the right instrument rather than just making a decision then turning it over to us to make it right. A custom guitar facility is a smarter way to get what you need because we are the experts. It's not a players responsibility to get the guitar right-it's ours. After we make the necessary adjustments, tweaks, intonation checks, action and electronics changes, neck modifications and proper string adjustments-you have a great playing guitar that plays EXACTLY how you need it to play as a guitarist. What could be simpler?Assemblers NOTE when substituting your own necks: Be ready to make any adjustments necessary to make your project work with any necks and any necessary adjustments to make your neck and body fit together well. It takes skill it's not co-incidence. If you know what you're doing this is easy. If you don't-then leave this page.Remember to place your neck in the body you intend to use and drill holes in the neck so they will line up with this body. It may require you to do some work in the form of plugging some neck holes.
Some of you know that and we know that. The rest of you roll up your sleeves and don't complain. Most craftsmen realize- every neck may not fit every body as well as every body will not suit every neck. Sometimes holes will line up and
sometimes they won’t-so again, make sure you drill your OWN holes in your neck and plug any existing ones. Clamp and align prior to drilling neck holes. If you need to plug some holes then-by all means-do it. We cannot be responsible for
careless installation so-be sure you're competent before you buy anything requiring skills to assemble. If you're gonna "Do it yourself" then do it. We are aware that there are some differences between bodies and necks.
They are not all identical. A small space in the neck pocket however will not affect the playability
setup, neck installation or action adjustments. Fender often times uses shims in the pockets because of that reason.
There should be some space to move the neck right or left when adding a neck so as to get the margins even on the right and left sides of the fret board.
There is always craftsmanship involved with building and modifying guitars.Be ready to make any adjustments necessary to make your project work with any necks and make the necessary adjustments.If you feel that you don't have the skill in working with wood or guitar mods-please don't feel bad, instead-send us your project parts, we can do it, and we'll finish it for you.However you can also write or call us prior to your purchase and ask any questions you'd like.Send us your neck or body with your favorite strings and we'll mount the neck on it for you for just $45 plus return shipping.

We Ship World Wide!Haywire Custom Guitars 8-point gig ready guitar process...1. The 4-axis Alignment of the guitar neck. Each guitar neck is checked and adjusted to insure that it is true and straight to insure proper alignment on all axis. This step insures proper action and allows for more accurate and easier guitar tuning, playing and set-up in the following steps.
2. Inspect and Lube the guitar tuning gears. Before installing the guitar tuning gears, each one is checked thoroughly. Each tuning gear is adjusted-there is no play in the mechanism. They are then lubricated to insure smooth and even movement to make your guitar tune accurately.
3. Potting the guitar pickups-We dip the pickups in hot wax to reduce squeal and unwanted guitar feedback
4. Prep the guitar body-Before installing the guitar electronic components, great care is taken to insure that all wires are properly routed, spaced, and grounded to insure years of trouble free service with your guitar 5. Level and polish the frets-This insures that all of the guitar frets are level, eliminating any possibility of fret buzz due to unevenness.
6. Radius the guitar strings-Most guitar necks have a contour over the top of the neck. We adjust the strings to make sure that height of each string follows the contour of the guitar neck.7. Adjusting the overall guitar string height and the action.Once we set the contour and radius of the guitar strings, then to adjust the overall height of the strings from the top of the frets to the bottom of the strings.
8. Set the guitar intonation-This step is done twice. The intonation is set two times with a 24 hour seat-in period in between to allow the guitar to properly re-seat to the new adjustments.
Haywire Custom Guitars is a unique Custom Shop of craftsman where we modify guitars from many manufacturers. We alter instruments to individual or personal specifications and offer the resulting upgraded instruments for sale. We are not a Gibson, Epiphone, Washburn, Wilkinson, Parker, Carvin, BC Rich USA, Jackson, PRS, Ernie Ball, Warmoth or Fender dealer nor are we affiliated with any of these companies. We do however buy used guitars from various manufacturers, new and used instruments from private individuals that we re-build, re-shape, re-sand, re-finish, re-top and customize ourselves for customers upon request. We upgrade electronics, necks, hardware and finishes and offer the finished products for sale. While there are no manufacturer warranties on the instruments we sell. We do however offer our own warranty for one year on our hand crafted finished products and craftsmanship on our finishing, customization and 8 point "Gig Ready" Haywire set-up processes. Fender, Stratocaster, Telecaster and Gibson, Les Paul, Buzz Feiten and related marks are trademarks of Fender Musical Instruments, Gibson, Buzz Feiten respectively and/or their affiliates. All other trademarks or registered trademarks referenced in this site are the property of their respective owners. Products offered via the Website are subject solely to their manufacturer's limited warranty, without additional warranty from Haywire Custom Guitars, and are protected by a variety of patents and trademarks. The guitars we specialize in rebuilding, changing, refurbishing and setting up are instruments with replaceable necks and bodies because we have more requests to add, change and modify these instruments more than any others. We do not build Fender guitars we add value to them in our "8 Point Gig Ready Process" or other modifications requested by our customers from time to time. We do however, replace and upgrade parts as required. We buy guitars from ALL manufacturers used and new and alter and modify them. As noted above several examples include: Gibson, PRS, Jackson, Bigsby®, G&L, The Bigsby® mark and Bigsby tailpiece designs are registered trademarks of Fred W. Gretsch Enterprises, Ltd. and many other brands as noted above and alter these and re-sell them as refurbished instruments. We change necks from one guitar to another to find the best combination. We buy guitars that are distressed and bring them back to a playable state and offer the resulting instrument for sale. We do not and will not copy or build knock -off products of other companies. We do not do anything that would dilute the brand of these manufacturers. The guitars simply leave circulation for a while for upgrading, neck straightening fret leveling and/or replacement, neck replacement, pick up replacement, refinishing, hardware replacement , a set up then re-enter circulation as a better and renewed instrument. We re-furbish, replace, renew, refinish and otherwise repair the guitars we purchase from manufacturers or private individuals for repair and/or restoration by adding new bodies and necks etc. You may also visit our eBay store. Calling or emailing us directly about a purchase of an item stocked in our eBay store constitutes doing business from our website. That purchase is subject to our rules and not eBay rules. However, please be aware that asking to purchase an item "off eBay" may constitute a contract breach with eBay. We want to maintain a good and honest relationship with eBay, compliance with eBay policies and integrity with all whom we do business. Therefore, in the event that occurs, we reserve the right to use a "substitute item". If you ask us to breach our agreement and bypass eBay and sell something from our eBay store directly to you we may instead send a product from our Haywire Custom Guitars website. The item we can substitute will be comparable and of like kind, quality and and/or in many cases, greater value. In this way we can leave our listing intact and eBay will benefit from a direct sale. Last point we'd like to make is; sometimes it is difficult to determine the origin of a part however we try our best to buy carefully and check the parts but if they have no serial numbers it can perhaps in some cases be impossible. Since we do not manufacture signature brand items we rely on the descriptions provided by our suppliers. Sometimes things may get by us or were not identified properly by a seller or supplier. In some situations it can be beyond our control but be aware we stand with our customers to make sure they are happy and satisfied with either the purchase or return and make it right to their satisfaction. We will be glad to refund any money for mistakes that can occur occasionally under those circumstances. We will not knowing sell the wrong products or parts. Returns will not be accepted however on guitars tampered with, opened, changed, modified, liquids spilled on and otherwise missing parts or purchased simply for perusal by competitors to disassemble and return. With prior approval and acceptance of item, returns must be sent immediately within the policy period for returns and specified days in listing. We are selling our set up skills, modification skills, our ability to identify which parts make the best fit, action set, finishing skills, restoration and design skills, and honor the custom requests from individuals who have their own guitars they would like modified. The photos on The Haywire Custom Guitars website are taken by us and are all types of guitars that have passed through the Haywire Custom shop at one time or another for service and/or modification as requested by the original owner or as determined to be necessary to bring the instrument up to an extremely comfortable and playable state as well as intoned as necessary.
