Dude talk to Hugh cause he quit his normal job and now all he does is fixing music equipment and setting up guitars and basses. He finished his guitar building school that he was going to in north Hollywood. Hell the other day his buddy in The Midnight Project hooked him and got him setting up instruments at some studio. He's mad pro now.
