Meet The Team

Jacob Klag

My name is Jacob Klag. I’ve been doing stringed instrument repair and guitar setups since I got my first guitar with a Floyd Rose bridge at 16. I have been highly trained at Galloup School for Guitar Building and Repair, a hands on school with master luthiers who take the art beyond science. I also attended Berklee College of Music and have been active professionally since 2014. Fretboard Rehab is celebrating 8 years in business with gratitude to our clients.

Fretboard Rehab takes the time to make your instrument balanced. I offer tiered options when quoting labor on an instrument to meet varying expectations. I always focus on playability and function first, and I help talk any customer through the different parts of a given job. This way you will understand what I’m going to do, why I’m going to do it, and what the outcome will be. In doing so, I always aim to guarantee the best finished product.

I do restrings to full refurbishes. Your instrument will get the same care no matter the cost. I’m also careful to keep all vintage items in their historic state.

If you were told your instrument could not be repaired, or maybe it holds a sentimental place in your hands, give me a call. I live for a challenge and do what others may not.

Johnny Styles

Johnny first appeared after Jacob completed the circuit with a charged 450vdc capacitor, through his heart, to his hand on the chassis of a 1970’s Fender Bassman 50 back in 2016, soon after the shop opened.

The charge positively aligned air particles to open a space-time portal. Johnny then found himself living in the BerenSTAIN Bears universe, instead of the BerenSTEIN Bears universe. This distinction first explained to him by Jacob, known to many as the Mandala effect. For Johnny, though, a harsh reality.

From there, Johnny has been placed in upper management because of his training in chemical compounds and aesthetics. Having been exposed to the radiation of the split atom particles via the electron portal, Johnny has become timeless. He ages in knowledge and skill, but no longer shows the signs of mortal aging.

He is quick to learn and holds high expectations for both Jacob and our customers. He will never tell you what instruments he can play. He either knows all of them, or none.

Johnny provides an extra set of hands as an apprentice and manager. He maintains our expectations for high quality service and satisfaction, placing importance on making instruments look both new and functional. He is an invaluable addition, whom without we could not keep to the promises we give to our customers or ourselves.

Our shop maintains it’s climate due to his odd knowledge of HVAC systems, being beneficial to your instrument and your experience at Fretboard Rehab.
