"Bench Fee" $50
Any simple repair or adjustment up to 1 hour

"Belly Bulge" $100 (plus parts: $25-75)
Is your guitar's belly (just below the bridge) bulging up? Is the bridge beginning to separate from the body in the back? It could be an easy fix. If you don't have a guitar humidifier, plan on that too, about $25.
