Learn and Master Spotlight Series: Guitar Set-Up and Maintenance Review
Legacy Learning Systems are renowned for their popular DVD home study course Learn and Master The Guitar With Steve Krenz and off the back off this success they have released a new Spotlight Series focusing on various aspects of the guitar. The Guitar Setup & Maintenance DVD course is an incredibly useful course which shows you how to set up your guitar in your own home using a few easy-to-use tools. You’ll learn to make basic adjustments to your guitar so you hopefully end up with a better playing and sounding instrument.
The course features the high production values associated with the original 'Learn and Master Guitar course' and tackles a subject that most players take a long time to master, that of learning how to properly setup your guitar. At the time of writing this review the course only costs $49 which is close to the cost of one visit to an experienced guitar technician at your local guitar store so it's excellent value for those serious about learning these skills.
Greg Voros is the master luthier providing the tuition and has spent years working on guitars for George Gruhn of Gruhn’s Guitars. He’s been entrusted with the repair, restoration, and setup of guitars ranging in value from $100 to $250,000 which makes him the perfect instructor for the job. His presentation skills are excellent and he is extremely thorough throughout the course.
He covers the most common guitars during the course and you’ll learn how to setup a Gibson Les Paul, Fender Stratocaster, Gibson L7 arch-top acoustic guitar, and a Martin flat-top acoustic guitar.

Testimonials
“With Greg’s professional setups, my guitars play and sound their best on stage and in the studio. I trust Greg to get the job done right, every time.”
Tyler Unger, guitarist, Five Times August and Nashville studio musician“Greg’s fretwork and set ups are second to none. I challenged him with some odd vintage pieces (like a Hagstrom 8-string bass with a very funky neck), and he exceeded my expectations for both playability and appearance. He applies common sense, science, and careful measurement in a field of work that is often filled with ‘voodoo’ and ‘feel.’ The result is art.”
Jay Weaver, bassist, Dolly Parton, Tanya Tucker, Raul Malo, Jim Lauderdale“As an owner of vintage guitars, I know the importance of a good luthier. I have played with professionals and when asked if they like my music, they all say the same thing: ‘Not really, but do you mind if I play that guitar? Who did the setup?’”
C. Edward Fowlkes (Lawyer Fowlkes), radio host, Legally Speaking WLAC
