I am so happy to have my old Roland working again. Dropped it off and the next day fixed was amazing service. I’m definitely going to use Greg whenever I have something for him to fix again.
I took my 40 plus year-old babies to Greg for battery replacement and some other repairs. He took great care of them, and did so quickly and for far below the price I expected (don't tell Greg, but he should charge more). Very professional and just a nice guy. Very highly recommended.
