Fender Authorized Repair Service

My name is Randal Perkins and I have been doing instrument repairs for over 20 years. I was the apprentice to the highly regarded Luthier Del Langejans for nearly 15 years. I have learned most of my craft from Del but I have also devoted myself to the study of the skill, reading works by and learning from many of the leading experts in the field.  I have a background in and fondness for vintage guitars. I also have a vast library of resources on vintage guitars. My clientele lies mostly in West Michigan but extends to many other states. I have done fret work for; Peter Frampton, Earl Klugh, Phil Keaggy, Jars of Clay, Thom Bresh and many others.
