Brought in a neck and tuners for a telecaster build. Asked if he could install them and do a general setup. Couldn’t be happier with the results it now plays and sounds great. Highly recommend.

I am the proud owner of two Fayland custom guitars, they are absolutely amazing instruments. I have Les Pauls, Ibanez, Fenders, Collings...and my Faylands have the most comfortable playability of any guitar I have ever had...I am already dreaming up my next Fayland as I write this. Seriously the finest instruments you could imagine. Chris is such a great person, and I am blessed and proud to be a Fayland owner, Order now cause his waiting list will be 5 years out soon.

I must say. I'm very impressed with the work and quality that Fayland done on my Gibson. I played it four times before the neck got broken. I was terrified that it could not be repaired. Boy was I wrong. I'm very excited to strap this black beauty on. They also did a lot of extra work on it that I wasn't expecting. It sounds better than it did at being brand new. I would highly recommend Faylands . If you need repairs or looking for a custom build. Give Fayland a call. I want take my guitars no where else. Thank you so much for your high quality work.

Had my composite acoustic re-fretted with stainless steel, electronics updated, and set up to play like butter. The work is incredibly professional and got done faster than I expected, and Fayland was responsive to questions and kept me updated through the whole process. My guitar plays again like it did when I first got it, couldn’t be happier with Fayland and really glad I found them! Call your boy for all your guitar work, I’ll be going back again for sure.

Came to this man for a re-fret of my strat and replacement of rusty screws. I paid $650, I think. Honestly, small price to pay. I now have MY guitar back. It feels brand new again. This man has a PhD in guitar repair and I'll never go anywhere else. 🤘

Brought in my beloved Stratocaster for Chris to repair a little scuff on the paint, then set it up. Due to the unique finish it was a challenging paint job, yet he was up to task. I waited a week to write this review so I could fully appreciate just how well this thing is set up. It already played well, but taking it to Mr. Fayland was a game changer. Though incredibly humble, this guy could turn a baton into a magic wand.

Thanks for the amazing review Trevor, so glad I was able to get your Strat back in order and playing better than ever! Reviews like this are why we do what we do.

Took a severely damaged Martin to get repaired. Chris gave me a quote up front and got the repair done within a week. Excellent communication and workmanship! I highly recommend his services and will definitely get more work done by him in the future.

Thanks Mike! So glad we were able to get your Martin all squared away and looking new again.

Brought in my 40 year old Guild with some cracks. It was devastating. Fortunately I found Fayland Guitars and Fayland’s had it looking like new in no time. Incredible repair job and happy to have one of my collection back home. Highly recommend.

I learned to play guitar in the 70’s . Two talented and patient friends taught me. One friend had a Martin D-18 and the other a beautiful Gibson Hummingbird and a Les Paul. I can still remember the great tone of their guitars. I had a cheap acoustic that was at best OK. Then life happened and I didn’t play for the next 40+ years. As I approached retirement I knew I wanted to play again. I told my wife of my plan and she said,” why wait let’s go get a new guitar”. That day I bought a Les Paul knockoff . Six months later I bought a Telecaster style guitar since I was playing mostly country. Six months after that I was looking for a better sound and shopping for a better guitar. I saw a video of The Red Clay Strays and they were playing Fayland guitars and they sounded great. I called Chris Fayland about his Tele style guitars. Did I need a hand crafted guitar? No, but I sure wanted one. After talking with Chris I spaced my own guitar the next day. A couple weeks ago my guitar was shipped from Alabama to my home in Colorado. It is beautiful and it has the tone I was looking for. Every note is clear and it is a pleasure to play. Chris is a talented craftsman. I don’t like the guitar I love it.

Chris did an amazing job! I brought my Traben 5 string Bass to Fayland Guitars for a setup and some electronic work as well. The bass sounds better than ever. I will definitely be doing more business here in the near future. Thank so much.

Thanks Daniel, glad we were able to get your bass playing like it should!

So happy with the work Chris did on a 20+ year old Strat that had been sitting in a closet for years. In just a few days he had it looking and playing like new!

Took my LTD EX400 in for some electrical and fret work. Chris replaced my scratchy pots with high quality US made pots and fixed a wobbly neck pickup. He also filed the frets and got them all silky smooth. The guitar plays/sounds better than new. I just wish I would have brought it to him sooner.

Thanks Michael for the awesome review, so glad we could get your LTD playing like it should!

Chris is Awesome! I was looking for a new Luthier and found his website and saw all the great reviews so I reached out. He set up and leveled the frets on one of my electric guitars and gave it a whole new life! He also was super insightful and took the time to answer all my questions. Plus he's a really cool guy to talk to. You can tell he is very passionate about his work. Needless to say, I'm planning on bringing all my guitars to him soon!

Thanks for the awesome review Keuler! It was a pleasure fixing up your guitar! See you soon for your other ones!

Chris Fayland is a highly skilled repair tech and luthier. I would love to own a custom build one day. In the meantime, he brought my 24 year old Larrivee acoustic back to life and it’s playing better than ever. Can’t say enough great things about him and his expertise! If you’re in the area and in need of guitar repair or even a custom guitar, check him out!!!

Thank you Matt! It was a pleasure bringing your Larrivee back to life. I look forward to working again with you again in the future.

I brought my amplifier to Fayland for some repairs and now it sounds even better than it did the day I bought it! Chris was very timely and professional, I’ll definitely be working with Fayland for any future guitar/amp needs.
