I brought my electric guitar (Les Paul) in for work due to ongoing issues with easily going out of tune and fret buzz on the high E. I’ve had this guitar worked on a handful of times in the ~15 years I’ve owned it without any significant improvement. I picked the guitar up today and holy crap it’s like a completely new instrument. The fret/neck work is perfect, the action is improved and it is holding tune despite full step bends and heavy attack. This is something I just imagined would never happen. So yeah don’t let the name fool you they do amazing work on guitars too! Thanks you for this! The people at the shop are also very friendly and personable. If you need something done string instrument related this is the place to go!

The customer service in this shop is top notch. I brought in my restored violin to get help with something that sounded off. Kevin talked me through his recommendations and ultimately went above and beyond to get my violin in great shape. I could not be happier with how it sounds.

Sol Vista is awesome. I'm a music professor at CU and I work with world-class professionals in all areas of music. I can say unequivocally that James and the crew at Sol Vista are as world-class as it gets. I recommend them all the time.

James and team work miracles. Not only did they repair an old guitar for me, but they took care of my high school son's violin as if it were a Stradivarius. Highly recommend for school rentals, purchases, and repairs.

After handcrafting an upright electric bass, I decided I should leave the nut slotting to a pro. I brought it to Sol Vista and I couldn’t be happier. It looked and played SO much better than I expected. Before and after pictures below.I only knew about them because I stopped in a few months earlier to ask questions about double bass dimensions, which they answered.They do great work, have reasonable prices, and a have an undeniable love of instruments. I just dropped off another bass to have it set up properly.

I brought in my daughter's cello for an urgent repair. Kevin was super helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly. He stopped what he was doing to jump on the repair and the price was extremely reasonable. I will be going to Sol Vista from now on for all our cello needs!
