Haywire Custom guitars offers professional high-end guitars. If you are a professional guitarist looking for a great playing, feeling and sounding guitar, you should understand why to choose Haywire over some of the larger competitors.
The real value that Haywire offers you is its small-scale. With greatly individualized attention to pots, hardware, functionality, ease of use, longevity, detail and playability pro's can play a guitar packed with lots of attention and details of what they really need and want,
rather than, say settling for an unready guitar "off-the-rack" in a mall music store. A pro's guitar should be way above average in it's ability to play smoothly and trouble-free. We are experts in that area and back up our custom guitar work for our clients.
Pro's world-wide can rely on their Haywire Custom Shop instrument. It will be exactly to their specifications, play with ease, sound great, be above average and please them greatly. Our guitars contain upgraded quality components you want at a
reasonable price, sound great, feel wonderful and use unique parts features with the built-in assurance of a one year warranty from us on our finished work.
Thank you for considering Haywire Custom Guitars.
Haywire 8-Point Gig-Ready Process Haywire Custom Guitars has developed an 8-point "Gig-Ready guitar process that ensures all Haywire guitars are ready to rock from day one. With many years of development and guitar set-up experience, we pride ourselves in building you a guitar that is just right for you at prices way below market.
We offer a wide choice of body colors, hardware, and pickups to make your Haywire guitar a true custom. At Haywire Custom Guitars, we're making satisfied guitarists one guitar at a time.
Point 1: 4-axis alignment of the guitar neck
Each guitar neck is checked and adjusted to be it is true and straight to ensure proper alignment on all axis. This step ensures proper action and allows for more accurate and easier guitar tuning, playing and set-up in the following steps.
Point 2: Inspect and lube the guitar tuning gears
Before installing the guitar tuning gears, each one is checked thoroughly. Each tuning gear is adjusted so that there is no play in the mechanism. They are then lubricated to insure smooth and even movement to make your guitar tune accurately.
Point 3: Potting the guitar pickups
We dip the pickups in hot wax to reduce squeal and unwanted guitar feedback.
Point 4: Prep the guitar body
Upon installing the guitar electronic components, great care is taken to ensure that all wires are properly routed, spaced, and grounded to ensure years of trouble free service with your guitar.
Point 5: Level and polish the frets
This insures that all of the guitar frets are level, eliminating any possibility of fret buzz due to unevenness.
Point 6: Radius the guitar strings
Most guitar necks have a contour over the top of the neck. We adjust the strings to make sure the height of each string follows the contour of the guitar neck.
Point 7: Adjusting the overall guitar string height and the action
Once we set the contour and radius of the guitar strings, it’s time to adjust the overall height of the strings from the top of the frets to the bottom of the guitar strings.
Point 8: Set the guitar intonation
This step is done twice. The intonation is set two times with a 24 hour "seat-in" period in between to allow the guitar to properly re-seat to the new adjustments.
