We highly recommend you go to an authorized Taylor service center if you are in need of guitar repairs. Authorized service center guitar technicians have undergone training with Taylor guitars in our guitar repair methodology and learned the specific needs a Taylor guitar may need for proper care.

Structural repairs like fixing cracks, braces and headstocks or bridge replacement should ideally be performed by an authorized service center. However, if your guitar is no longer under warranty, then there are highly competent service centers outside our officially trained service network that can perform repairs. Be sure to research your unauthorized service team carefully by reading reviews and testimonials, or talking to your friends and other musicians for a reference.

While structural repair is the most sensitive fix you can make on your guitar and should be approached with the utmost care, there are more common repairs that are important as well. You may need to re-fret, crown, polish or level the frets on your guitar. This can be a delicate process as well, though perhaps not as intensive as guitar repairs to the body of your instrument. Nut and saddle replacement is another common repair that can be done by most guitar techs.

Then there are some repairs that are more like in-depth maintenance, such as adjusting the action and truss rod, correcting intonation, and so on. This is a guitar repair in the same way that having a thorough tune-up on your car is a car repair. It will extend the life of your guitar and keep it sounding its best if you routinely have it in for a tune-up with a professional service center.

Another guitar repair option to consider is one of Taylor’s several Factory Service Packages, which are offered at Taylor’s Factory Service Centers in El Cajon, CA, and Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Four featured packages include Refresh, Revive, Renew and Rejuvenate, each covering a different range of services. Another option is the installation of Taylor’s Expression System 2 pickup.
