guitar fender image
I have a Bass Guitar (Fender mustang) and I'm very emotionaly attatched to it so no I can't buy a new one . The back piece on it is mising and I can see some of the wires aren't welded into place anymore . How much would it cost to get it repaired ?
Thanks .
Answer
If it's just a matter of soldering (not welding) a few wires back in place I wouldn't charge more than $20 to fix it. If it goes beyond that and it requires diagnostics to figure out what's wrong and replace some of the parts, it might cost around $50, but it would really depend on what the problem was and how long it took to figure it out. Those basses are not overly complicated to work on though.
You could probably take it to any music store that does repairs and they'll give you a free estimate. If it's higher than you think it should be, try getting estimates from a few places.
Or you could get a soldering iron for $20 and solder the wires back on yourself and see if it works. Just don't burn your fingers or you won't be playing it for a while!
