Teresa and her awesome assistant were so great to me. I had a Martin Custom X series that needed work as it had gotten a bit dehydrated(thanks to this super dry desert and staff at Guitar Center that were clueless as to instrument care).Teresa is a certified tech for both Martin AND Taylot and wow, it shows. She has such an incredible aptitude for guitars its not even funny. She knows everything there is to know and is more than happy to share her knowledge. Not only do you get impeccable work, you get a priceless class in guitar maintenance. Teresa gave me all the tools and info I need to keep my Martin playing right for years.If you need any guitar work at all, please dont trust your work to anyone else in the Valley. You will not regret choosing Topaz Guitars, this I can promise you. Thank you so much ladies....YOU ROCK!!!!!!

If you have a guitar in Vegas that needs some attention - YOU MUST TAKE IT TO TERESA. I instantly knew I was leaving my babies in the hands of someone who loved them just as much as I did. Takes time with everyone, no rush. Makes sure you leave with the knowledge of how to do some regular maintenance on your own, gave me a short course on truss rod adjustment. You are not simply a client or customer, but a fellow guitar lover and friend. Knowledgeable, professional, compassionate and all around awesome. Best thing I could have done for my guitars.

I’d been wanting to get this guitar fixed for more than five or so years and just never could get to it. It’s been with me for at least ten though. I found Teresa and she was so very helpful and knowledgeable about her craft and telling me what she could fix and for how much depending on what work was done. Very fair on pricing and even helped me out since the pandemic had me in a bit of a financial bind. Great work and would definitely recommend anyone who needs any work done to go see her. She can do anything from structural repairs (as seen here) to set-ups and electrical. She knows her stuff. Love her!

Experience, knowledge and dedication to her craft. Needed a opinion and possible repair on my new Martin, Teresa explained the humidity problems here in Las Vegas and how to correct them. She reset the height, adjusted the neck and my buzzing and dead frets are gone. My next visit Teresa will instruct me on the proper way to string my guitar. If you need guitar repair, this is the Luthier you need!

Teresa is amazing she repaired my Martin which had significant humidity damage/crack down the middle of the body. Also did full setup and string change for both my acoustic and my strat. So happy ! She’s as good as it gets and goes the extra mile improving the most nuanced of details which I’m SURE nearly everywhere skimps on to save time ! She’s passionate about her craft and it shows in the attention to detail that I can’t imagine you can find anywhere else.

Topaz did an amazing job on my Martin D18!!! She is as professional and as knowledgeable as it gets and her repair work speaks for its self. She specializes in acoustics and its very comforting knowing she is the authorized Martin tech for the entire state and only one! My guitar did not even sound this great brand new. I highly recommend Topaz Guitar Repair, Teresa is the only one I now trust with my guitars. Go see for yourself if you can get in with her shes soo busy.

Absolutely fantastic service for repair and setup. Experienced, knowledgeable, personable and professional. Theresa inspected my guitars, replaced faulty tuners, corrected the action/setup my guitars, and gave me valuable advice for my next instrument. Highly recommend!

My first guitar was a 1956 Rickenbacker Combo in 1956 and no Teresa didnt do a repair on it, but if I still had it she would be the first person Id call. The point is Ive been around guitars for a long time, but that Rickenbacker was my first and last electric, until I decided to build my own strat style electric. Once finished I knew I was faced with a huge learn curve in attempting the final setup. Thats when I called Heartbreaker Guitars here in Vegas, anyone dealing with that many high end guitars would have a really great guitar tech. Thats where I made contact with Teresa. She did the setup which included string height, neck relief (this style body requires the neck to be removed), adjusting the tremolo springs, adjust and setting the bridge (intonation and matching fretboard radius), check and fixing all the electronics. I probably missed a few things and this a more than reasonable. She made this instrument better than it would have been! Thanks Teresa

Teresa was so awesome. As someone who’s been playing guitar for many years, she made me realize how little I knew about the mechanics and she was so open to educate and make sure you’re well taken care of.

Theresa is our hero. She is the best guitar tech in Vegas. We hired her as our primary tech about a year ago and havent looked back. Our customers rave about her. Not only is she certified for all of our key brands: PRS, Larrivee, Lowden, Santa Cruz, Huss and Dalton and Bourgeois, but she also does incredible restorative work. We cant speak highly enough about Theresa. She also happens to be a sweetheart of a person. Try Theresa directly through her repair business, or come to Heartbreaker Guitars to have her look at you guitar here. You wont be disappointed. -Brendan S.

Not only did Teresa come out the same day to look at my sons guitar, she was very kind and professional and explained exactly what was needed to repair the damage from the guitar falling and how it needed to be repaired. Teresa had the guitar back to us in a matter of days and did an amazing job with the repair just in time for my sons lessons. Highly recommended and will be calling Teresa from now on for our instrument repairs.
