formerly Fret Friend Guitar Workshop is a custom guitar workshop offering set-ups, repairs and custom modifications on guitars and basses and any/other stringed instruments. We can do anything from the most basic job ie: fit a strap pin up to mo

re complicated work ie: straighten a twisted/warped neck. We also cover electrical work and other/any not mentioned (try us). I have many years experience working with guitars and I try to provide a service based on quality and high standards.

I have no acoustic guitar in Canada as my Paul Toon custom built is back in England having the top redone. Needed something to strum here and after being disappointed with the over expensive used prices on Marketplace, I plumped for new and chose this beauty off of Amazon. I got it for $200 under retail at just under $600 (no brainer). Say hi to my Takamine GD20CE-NS ❤️🤘🎸🎶🙌

Surgery went well: only 3 bypasses all from one vein in my arm. 3 hours in/out! Nicola did such a good job sewing up my tattoos (she said she would). Recovery is even better than the procedure. 3 days after I’m tired but making super progress. Already walking without a walker and all my vitals are tip-top! Everyone here has been amazing and, I feel better than I ever have 🙏👍❤️✝️🙌

Not the best news but I need this out there…

I have really bad heart disease and every artery is blocked and I need bypass surgery. I am staying in at Ottawa Heart Institute and will be having surgery asap. Cardiologist said it’s good that I came in: I could have died at any time. The best surgeons in Canada are here and I will be fine. For my friends in faith keep me in your prayers 🙏 God has got this ✝️🙌🙏❤️

UPDATE: So it looks like my heart attack last week saved my life! I could have died at anytime. This condition is something that has happened over many years as some of my arteries are 95% blocked and in 9 different places around my heart. Thankfully my heart itself is really strong! I will be having triple-bypass surgery and it will be full chest opened up. Not scared and glad we caught it before it took me out 🙌🙏❤️✝️
