Instrument repairs, builds, and lessons

Welcome to your one-stop shop for instrument repairs, upgrades, custom builds, lessons, and more.

Service

  • $65 flat fee

    This service starts with a thorough cleaning of fretboard, pickups, and potentiometers. Next, the strings are replaced with a fresh set for no extra charge (You are welcome to bring your preferred strings.) Finally, the truss rod and saddles are aligned and intonation is set. Everything you need to keep your instrument playing great.

  • $40 hourly plus parts

    The world is imperfect and sometimes things fall apart. Not to worry, they can be repaired or replaced! I’ll cover anything from headstock to tailpiece.

  • $60 hourly plus parts

    Some jobs demand extra fine detail. This service is for things like refrets, gluing headstocks, refinishing, body cavity routing, and floating tremolos. My pricing is still competitive even for jobs that require the utmost care.

My name is Mike McDonald. I am a multi-instrumentalist and I have been performing in Las Vegas for the last 24 years. I started doing business as MMCD in June of 2020, helping repair my friends’ instruments and building instruments from kits under the MMCD label. I am excited to promote music literacy and make amazing instruments available to anyone with a passion for performing.
