Chris was recommended to me by Fender as he is a master gold star authorized repair shop. Ive brought a few guitars to him on several occasions for various services. His work is top notch and he always brings my guitar up to peak performance and feel. I refuse to go anywhere else. Dont waste your time or money at Guitar Center or Sam Ash.

Very professional. communicative and flexible. Very happy to have found him.

Reasonable price, fast turnaround. Made an appointment within 3 days, did my guitar set up in 30 mins and I got to see the whole process. I couldn’t have asked for more.

Chris got exactly what I needed done for my clunky 12 string. He’s friendly and reasonable, and I’ll be doing future guitar repairs with him when the time comes.

I brought my Epiphone Les Paul in to mod out the electronics with Seymour Duncan humbuckers and new wiring. My guitar played quite well even good for an import guitar, now it plays fantastically. It sounds phenomenal. I even checked out the wiring job he did and it was so professional and beautiful. I highly recommend him for any guitar repairs.

I cant tell you how much of a relief it is, to FINALLY find someone that I can trust with all of my guitars. Someone that absolutely knows what they are doing but more so, has a FABULOUS personality, is easy to talk with and is open to any types of upgrade discussions and is genuinely interested in helping bring the ideas of the customer, come trueHIGHLY RECOMMEND ! ! !

Christopher its a talented musician, luthier and a darn nice guy!

Chris is the real deal.I left a fairly old Ovation Elite 6 string with Chris last week. The high frets wouldnt ring at all. To me it looked like the neck was shot.I just picked it up and have been playing for the last 30m. Its perfect. Price was reasonable too. I cant recommend Chris highly enough (nice guy and easy to work with too!)

I was introduced to Chris from Fender. I wanted a local Fender authorized repair shop in the Raleigh NC area - not Sam Ash or GC...turns out hes one of the few (if not only) Gold certified Fender guys in town. He made a few adjustments (truss/pickup height/intonation)...and worked out a few kinks I had on the bridge. Excellent work and very fair price.

Christopher did a fret dress, setup, and bridge pietzo pickup repair on our Fender acoustic guitar. Even though it was an inexpensive guitar from a big box store it now plays and sounds like a thousand dollar guitar.Hes also done top notch electrical work on one of our more valuable electric guitars.To top it off hes a nice guy and a pleasure to do business with.

My son and I took his strat to Mr. Royce to repair a broken nut . Not only did Christopher repair the nut and fix it for future use with a heavier gauge of strings, he did a complete setup to my sons preference. All the while answering our questions and explaining what he was doing during the process.Now my son says his guitar plays better than ever .If you need any type of work done to your guitar do yourself and your guitar a favor and take it to Christopher Royce’s guitar repair.

Great experience. Went above and beyond. Found things the other guys didnt and fixed it on the spot. No two week wait for quality service. Skilled and professional.

Incredibly through. Encourages watching over his shoulder. I will not go to anyone else.

Did excellent work on my guitar at a very reasonable rate

Excellent fast service and he seems like a nice honest person to deal with.

A great experience overall. Got an honest assessment of the problem, the job was turned around quickly and for a fair price. I would highly recommend Chris for your repair.

Chris is THE man.
