    Don’t underestimate an inexpensive guitar!

    On the bench today is a Mitchell T333E acoustic guitar.  Some folks are quick to dismiss this brand as the “house brand” of Guitar Center.  I say, not so fast, Buster! We added a hand-carved nut and saddle, replacing the generic Tusq parts supplied at the factory, the gave it the Legendary Southeast Setup, including a set of Stringjoy Naturals Phosphor Bronze strings.  When the nut is carved to compliment the player’s string choice, it just sounds better.

    How to you turn a $200 guitar into something special? Swap out the plastic nut and saddle for bone, and give it a Southeast Setup, of course! Which is exactly what we did for this beauty.  Now it sounds like a million bucks.  Or, at least $750!  And it plays better than it did when it left the factory in Indonesia.  A small investment in a few parts and an expert setup will always bring out the best in your instrument.
