Replay Guitars didn't start as a shop. Before the retail floor, before the vintage stock and the Carlton North address, there was the workshop.
Since 2013, we've been repairing, setting up, and restoring guitars and basses for players of every kind in Melbourne and beyond. That foundation shapes everything about how we work. We're not a guitar shop that happens to have a repair bench out the back. The workshop is where it all began, and it remains the heart of what we do.
Over the years, our reputation has grown well beyond Melbourne. We're now the go-to guitar repair and setup workshop for players and organisations from right across Australia.
We work with absolute beginners picking up their first guitar through to some of Australia's most well-known touring and recording artists, international acts passing through, major theatre productions, conservatories, universities, high schools, primary schools, and private teaching studios.
Whoever you are, whatever you play, the approach doesn't change. Every instrument deserves to be set up properly, and every player deserves to understand what's been done to it and why.
One of the most common frustrations in the guitar repair world is the gap between what a player asks for and what comes back. We've heard it plenty of times, and we've worked hard to do better.
When you bring an instrument in, we listen carefully, ask the right questions, and keep you in the loop. No jargon for the sake of it, no unnecessary work, no surprises on the bill. Just honest advice and a clear conversation about what your instrument needs.
Everyone in our workshop plays. That matters more than it might sound. We understand what it's like to have an instrument that doesn't quite feel right, and we know the difference it makes when it does.
We draw on decades of collective technical experience across a wide range of instruments, styles, and playing contexts. But we try not to overcomplicate things. The goal is always the same: your instrument, playing its best, exactly the way you like it.
