Q: Who Q: Who does the repair work?

A: S.G. “Scooter” Davis handles all repairs for Granville Guitars. 

He has been working on and playing guitars and amps for over 30 years. 

Scooter apprenticed with Mr. Pete Galindo for 7 years and holds a technical degree in electronics. 

He holds a wide variety of factory authorizations from the leading names in the industry.

Scooter is a member of the Guild of American Luthiers.

Q: What items can I bring to Granville Guitars for repairs?

A: Granville Guitars provides full repair services for electric and acoustic guitars, bass guitars, amplifiers and

associated effects pedals.  We currently do not do P.A. gear or keyboard repairs. 

Granville Guitars also offers custom effects pedals built by Scooter.

Q: Why must I pay a deposit?

A: The deposit amount covers the average time it takes to determine a course of action on a given

instrument repair.  After the problem is diagnosed, the owner is then given the option of proceeding

with the repairs (applying the deposit to the labor fees in the process) or electing not to repair the instrument. 

The hourly service rate is $50 and the average time for diagnosis is 40 minutes.

Q: How long can I expect my repair to take?

A: ALL repair customers should allow at least a one-week turnaround time.  Please understand that at any

given time, there are anywhere from 5-15 other repairs in the shop waiting their turn.  Most cases can be

handled sooner some may take much longer depending on parts availability or acquiring of schematics.

Q: What happens when my repair is completed?

A: You can expect to hear from Scooter immediately upon completion of the repair.  At that time you will be

asked to pick a day within three business days of completion for your instrument.  Any repair that is left

unclaimed beyond 10 business days will be subject to a weekly storage fee of $10. 

After 30 calendar days the repair becomes the property of Granville Guitars.

Q: Can I visit with Scooter personally?

A: Of course!  Scooter’s repair hotline is 727-345-7435.  He answers his phone from 10AM to 4PM Monday

through Friday.  If you get his voice mail please leave a message!  You will be contacted promptly.

**I'm sorry, but I am unable give estimates over the phone.  Instruments must be inspected in person in

order to give an accurate appraisal of the work necessary.

Q: Can I bring my own parts?

A: Certainly.  Although before you buy, shop around and get your best price.  The chances are very good that we can beat it.  Special order parts must be paid for in full before ordering.
