Warranty / Legal notice
Weston Instruments is a registered business in the province of Ontario, based in Ottawa. Weston instruments offers stringed instrument repair and fabrication. All instruments are insured to their full market value while under the care of Weston Instruments.
Delivery times:
Quoted delivery times are a guideline only. Even though I will always strive to deliver fast and efficient service, delivery times are affected by type of work commissioned, the total shop workload and job specific factors such as, but not limited to: Curing time for finishes and adhesives, the type of work being performed in parallel with a commission and human factors.
Maintenance work such as setups, fretwork, electronics, minor structural repairs and refrets are given a priority in the work schedule. Restoration projects, custom commissions, major aesthetic and structural work is performed once priority work is completed. The work load is scheduled as such because of the irregularity in the amount and type of major projects that are commissioned by customers on a yearly basis.
Payment terms:
Weston instruments accepts cash, certified check, money order, wire transfer payments, credit card and interac. Non cash payments must be made out to Weston instruments. All services must be paid prior to the instrument being survived/repaired/built can leave the workshop. In the case of fabrications, payment terms are 40% dawn with the order and the balance due upon completion of the instrument.
If this happens within the 30 day period of warranty, I will reset the guitar to what you want, and need it to be.
All custom built instruments have a lifetime warranty (for the original owner) against manufacturing defects. All components not manufactured by Weston Instruments ar warrantied by their respective manufacturers. These warranties may vary, depending on the component and its manufacturer.
