Bobby always does a great professional job. I bring all my guitars to him. guitars are always finished in a timely manner
I had a great set up done on my Guitar and now it plays better than before. Thanks Bobby!
GRS has got to be the top repair shop in in the region. They did a very thorough and detailed evaluation of one vintage electric bass in serious disrepair while I waited, gave a fair estimate for repairs and an honest timeline for the project. Their benches are right there in the shop and it was a pleasure to watch them work and have a chance to talk about vintage gear. I will be taking my entire collection of old axes, acoustic and electric, to GRS from now on.
I brought my bass in for electronics modifications and to my ears, it is now comparable to much more expensive basses Ive played. I would highly recommend Bobby for any guitar/bass modifications.
Over the past few years I have brought in numerous guitars for repairs (major cracks/warping), modifications, and professional setups. Bobby has always treated my guitars with quality workmanship at a great price. He is truly a master at his trade. I trust that he will be able to handle any issue i have, big or small. I plan on using Bobbys services for many years to come.
I brought a guitar that was in pretty bad shape into Bob after being told by Guitar Center that my truss rod was shot. He looked it over and sure enough truss rod worked fine. All other issues were addressed and guitar was finished a week sooner than expected. Guitar plays perfectly and is as good as can be. Any guitar in my collection that needs any work done will go straight to Bob from now on. I could not be more satisfied and I recommend you bring your guitars here for service when needed. Thank you again Bob for the amazing work done on my star guitar.... Best Regards Mark A.
Bob is a very good guitar repairman / technician. He knows his stuff. His prices are fair and he turns the work around in a reasonable amount of time. Hes done repairs / upgrades / setups on a few of my guitars and Ive been very happy with his work. Would highly recommend going to him if youre in need of work on a guitar or bass.
The luthier went above and beyond what was expected of him to make sure my instrument played properly. I went in to get a nut replacement and he added in string trees and had to fix a wiring issue for my guitar that he did for free. Will definitely be going here for all of my guitar repair needs.
Bobby was extremely helpful and patient with me as he explained how and why another repair shop actually did harm to my Taylor. He was then instrumental in getting it repaired. I trusted everything he said and appreciated his candor. I will absolutely be going back to to GRS in the future for any matters.
I had a great experience. I brought in an old beach guitar I really enjoy playing that needed some love, as well as a Gibson Les Paul with a broken head stock. Prices and expectations were set right away and both were finished faster than promised. Would 100% use again or recommend to a friend.
Bobby is very professional, tells it like it is and gets the work done on time (in my experience it was a few days earlier). His work shop is tidy and organised and charges are reasonable. Would recommend.
Dropped my acoustic guitar off on a Monday - Bobby immediately identified the issue (needed fret work and truss rod adjustment). He fixed everything and finished it within 2 days. Extremely knowledgable, professional and incredible craftsmanship. The only place I will go for guitar tune-ups and repairs. Highly recommended!
Best place. Bobby does great work and always points you in right direction. Would highly recommend!
Owner very knowledgeable, fair prices for repairs, Guitar very shreddable now, couldnt be happier
I was impressed at how fast Bobby fixed the tuning issue with my electric upright bass. I dont think I was there longer than 15 minutes. He took time to explain what was wrong with the tuning keys. I wouldve never known that otherwise. I will definitely be back in a few months for a setup for my 6-string bass!!!
Bobby did a fantastic job with my guitar and he has very fair prices compared to the other local businesses. I definitely will be coming back to him in the future!
Great service and very reasonably priced.
High quality work at reasonable prices. Always a pleasure to chat guitars and amp with owner Robby.
My guitar sounds perfect!If you’re looking for quality and great customer service, Bob is your guy. Professional work with reasonable prices. I won’t bring a guitar to anyone else!
Bobby is a true professional!! I’ve brought one of my Gibson Les Pauls and a vintage 1960s guild for a set up. He made both guitars play better once I got them back! Truly a master craftsman and professional. Highly recommend him for any service.
Bobby is a professional and delivers superior value. The bridge came off my Ovation guitar and he made it look and sound like new. He also set up my Fender precision bass perfectly for a very fair price. I strongly recommend Guitar Repair Services.
Found my new guitar tech! Bobby was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and affordable. Shop is clean, organized, and comfortable. Brought my LTD Eclipse in for some upgrades. Bobby wired up a set of Seymour Duncan distortions, high quality internals, installed and cut a new tusq nut, put on strap locks, and did a killer set up. Guitar plays and sounds like a dream! He asked a lot of questions, got to know me and my guitar and tailored my set up and sound to my playing style. I am very satisfied.
I just got my first work done by Bobby and I couldnt be happier! My American Tele got a 4 way switch upgrade, shielding and a set up. He nailed it on all! Amazing set up and great work! He was honest and told me exactly what my guitar did/didnt need. His pricing is also super fair... especially for his quality of work. I look forward to bringing him all my guitars!!!
Bobby is knowledgeable and helpful.Takes time to explain anything you ask.I would highly recommend his shop for guitar repairs and he also has a unique selection of guitars, amps and accessories for sale, new and used. I picked up an amazing used OCD overdrive pedal a while back for great price.
I can’t say enough good things about this place. Bob is extremely knowledgeable and friendly. My old Guild acoustic plays like a dream after a saddle and nut replacement with a setup. Great, clean work. Prices are more than fair. I tell every musician I know about this place. Highly recommend.
Extremely knowledgeable technician. Did an excellent job and made my guitar a pleasure to play again. Timely service: work was done sooner than expected. Very reasonable prices.
Brought in a B.C. Rich I havent picked up in a few years and I have had since 88 or so. I thought it would need major work, or at least a fret dressing. Time was taken to ask about how I liked the action and to explain everything that needed, to be done and that it wasnt in such bad shape after all. When I got it back, it was like a new guitar. Action and everything just how I wanted it. It was my first visit and Ill be back often for any repairs I need. Highly recommend.
Just picked up my guitar from the Guitar repair services in Scotch Plains and it sounds and feels perfect!!! Im so glad Bob has opened this shop in town. Its clean, friendly and his work is top notch! the prices are even better! I have lots of guitars and hes the guy to do all those repairs and mods I cant do myself! Check it out! Thanks so much Bob!
Just brought my Taylor 210 for Bob to do a set up. A number of the strings were buzzing when Id play. Bob was extremely helpful, friendly and was able take care of the repair the same day. If you need any work done I would HIGHLY recommend Bob. Ill definitely be back with my other guitars.
Bobby is the man. His prices are fair and his work is fantastic and quick turnaround, as well. He goes above and beyond. He’s already worked on 4 of my guitars. I won’t bring my guitars anywhere else. I highly recommend him.
I highly recommend Bobby for all your repair and set up needs. He repaired and setup 2 of my basket case guitars and now they play awesome. He is very personable and knowledgeable. I definitely will be using his services again in the future.
This is my go-to place for guitar maintenance. Great service, great prices, and first-class work. My guitars have never sounded better! Highly recommend!
Great price, great service, Bobby really knows his stuff. I was amazed how he cleaned/adjusted one of my guitars and how he saved another one from humidification problem. Highly recommended!
I usually do my own setups, but figured I would give the new place in town a shot. Glad I did. Not only does Bobby do an excellent job, but his prices are fair. While setting up my guitar, he provided some extra services when he noticed my saddles could use some filing. He really knows his craft and takes pride in his work. My LP is playing at its best with a new level of tone and sustain I hadnt heard from it before. Ill be coming back here.
Finally found an awesome guitar guy. Honest fast and a great guy. Brought my Fender Strat that had a broken pickup and Bobby fixed it fast and sounds better than ever. Only wish I found you sooner. Will be back for sure. Thanks again.
The service, quality and overall experience I had went beyond my expectations. Bobbys focus and expertise was evident as I brought my Fender American Standard Telecaster in for a much needed tune-up. A quick turn-around and incredible prices, as well as a guitar that sounds better now than is has ever, is the reason why I will regularly bring my guitars to his shop for maintenance. You should too.
Bobby is a highly skilled guitar tech . He gives advice to the player on how to care for the instrument on their own. There is always cool music playing in the shop and great guitar stories!! I trust Bobby with my most prized possessions.
I own World of Rock Music in Summit and Bobby did a great set up on my guitar. He even went out of his way to help me fix a keyboard! All my musician friends will know about this place.
Many years of abuse and hours of play it was time I brought in my guitar for repairs and I have zero regrets for bringing the guitar to Bobby. After taking some time to do a few tests on the guitar he knew exactly what needed to be done to fix the guitar up. Bobby, not only set up the guitar the right way but is 100% professional and he is pretty cool to talk to about guitars or amps. Awesome.
Nice shop. Great service. Very reasonable prices for excellent quality repairs. Guitar plays way better than it ever has. Thanks Bobby!!!
Absolutely PHENOMENAL shop. Bobby installed a set of pickups for me as well as a set up and u am more than satisfied! Would highly recommend.
Finally! thats right i finally found a true craftsmen to fix, and set up my own created messes i make, ruining saddle after saddle. bob longo is the man to bring your string instrument too. acoustic, or electric. nice guy who really cares about the work he does. his prices are more than fair, and he doesnt make you wait months like the guitar center. please take this little bit of wisdom. avoid guitar center at all cost, and keep this man in business. you wont be disappointed . your cheap broken guitar will thank you for it.
Amazing experience here
Excellent repairs, great prices, awesome guy running the shop. Cant recommend it enough!
Always excellent service!
On a referral I took my Les Paul to Bob for some work. He did a fantastic job. Highly recomend Guitar Repair Services. This is now my go to shop for any guitar work.
This is by far the best shop in the area for any and all guitar/bass maintenance services. Bob is extrememly friendly, easy going and highly knowledgable about his craft. Bob has serviced 4 guitars for me so far and each one was setup to perfection. What I like about this shop is that its an actual commercial business location. For the last 8 years I have been getting my guitar maintenance done from people working out of their homes. I have no problem with that but the professionalism and customer service was always lacking. Each time I come here I know that my instruments are going to be set up properly with meticulous attention to detail. There has always been a fast turnaround so that you can play more and wait less. The prices are very reasonable and the shop even has a few items for sale too which are worth checking out. I highly recommend this shop for any and all guitar/bass players in the area!
Goes the xtra yard for his customersDoes great work at very reasonable pricesHighly recommended
Super happy with my recent service. Brought my craigslist strat in to be set-up, expecting just to drop it off. Bobby went through and checked everything first, then showed me everything that needed to be adjusted. Turns out my frets were pretty jacked up (I had no idea) so I had him take care of that too. Super quick turn around, made me play it and make sure I was happy before taking my money. Its weird to play it for the first time and have it feel like it should. Excellent work, Ill be back with my next one for sure. Thank you Bobby!
Excellent work, excellent prices. bobby is a great guy and you should certainly take your business here as opposed to a chain store.
Very happy with the work done on my guitar.
I bought a 1990 Guild from someone off FB. Upon actually seeing the guitar, I was very disappointed. It was in terrible shape with really bad action and just seemed totally neglected for who knows how long. I traveled a distance to buy it as the price was great for such a vintage model and the pics looked great! It was not as advertised but I bought it anyway.I contacted Bobby Longo at Guitar Repair and Services in Scotch Plains, NJ and he agreed to take a look. After spending the time to evaluate the Guild, he explained to me what it needed and what he could do to breath new life into her.Less than a week later, this master guitarsmith made this once-thought clunker a sweet-playing bird with PERFECT action, and incredible sound! A great guy, very professional and quite reasonable! I am very happy to have met Bobby, and will be back to him again and again with my other guitars! I would absolutely recommend him to anyone in need of guitar repair!The man knows his craft and delivers what he says!
Bobby Longo is a very excellent luthier. He has in depth knowledge and really cares about proper setup of a guitar. My go to guy
Bobby is a master at his craft. Hes done magic on 3 of my acoustics so far. Cant wait to see what he does with my electrics.
Bobby did a Beautiful job on my Guitar! Hes a Great, Friendly and informative guy TOO! Two thumbs way up for HIM and his shop!
I had a very positive experience with Bobby at Guitar Repair Services. He took the time to explain everything that needed to be done, as well as the things that could be done to make my guitar play at its best.
Thank you to Bobby Longo who took my acoustic guitar, showed me that my prior guitar set-up and fret work were botched, fixed it, and made my guitar sing! Excellent service and timeliness.
Bobby is a true professional! After about 100 horrible experiences at guitar center and Sam ash I had enough and giving Bobby a try was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. My guitars are playing better than ever and he even set up my SRV Strat custom to how Stevie had it! Which wasn’t even an option when I would bring it elsewear. I couldn’t be happier with the work he did and the prices couldn’t be more fair either! I can tell he puts 100% care into every guitar he works on and because of that I will be a customer for life! Protect your investment and use Bobby for any repair! He won’t let you down!
Fast, friendly, quality workmanship. I will be back. Prices are very fair. Thanks Bobby.
I had a beat up old Univox HI Flier that someone gave to me. This thing was in bad shape. A friend suggested I take it to Bobby of Guitar Repair Services and he turned this rats nest into a totally playable awesome sounding masterpiece. Ill always go to Bobby for all my guitar repair needs now.
Great business and super friendly. Highly recommend !
Bobby is very knowledgeable about his field of guitar repair.
Excellent work. Very professional and fair pricing.
Very pleased with the work done here!
Repair and setup were done perfectly.
Bobby is very professional and he listens intently what you are saying. Completed the setup as promised.
Bobbys the man!
