Epiphone Wildkat came to the Workshed in desperate need of a setup.


This one had a grubby fretboard, the bridge was strung incorrectly with zero break point at the saddles. The biggest issue was poor factory fretwork with choking around the 12th fret and dead notes. Frets have been levelled, crowned + dressed....choke-out is a thing of the past! Low action setup with Rotosound 10-46" for amazing playability and effortless bends.


Below is the finished Guitar (pic 1) followed by before + after shots.
