Whether your instrument needs a routine refresh or a complete revival, our DaySpa services are designed to deliver consistent, reliable results — quickly, professionally, and with real-world playability in mind.
What Is a DaySpa Setup?
A DaySpa setup is a complete, performance-focused service that restores playability, tone, and reliability.
Each instrument is assessed individually to ensure it feels right in your hands and performs exactly as it should in real playing conditions.
From electric basses to upright basses, every setup is tailored to the instrument and the player — not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Bass Guitar & Double Bass Setup & Restring
Our Bass Guitar & Double Bass Setup & Restring is a full DaySpa service that returns your instrument to peak playing condition.
Electric & Acoustic Bass Guitars
This service includes:
-
Neck relief, action, and intonation adjustment
-
Fretboard cleaning and fret polishing
-
Full electronics health check
-
Professional restring (if required)
Strings are available in-store at 10% off RRP when booked with a service. You’re also welcome to bring your own strings, or we can retain your existing set if you prefer — ideal for players who already love their current feel.
The result is a bass that feels refreshed, responds effortlessly, and is 100% gig-ready.
Double Basses / Upright Basses
Double bass setups focus on playability, comfort, and stability, and may include:
-
Bridge height and fingerboard relief assessment
-
Nut and string height optimisation
-
Tailpiece and hardware inspection
-
String replacement (if required)
Double bass work is assessed individually to ensure the setup suits both the instrument and the playing style, whether arco, pizzicato, or a mix of both.
