Exeter Musical Equipment Repair Cafe
Repair, Restore & Get Your Music Gear Back in Action
Every Thursday at The Source at 21 Paris St, Exeter EX1 2JB
We know how important your musical equipment is. Whether you're a guitarist, drummer, singer, producer, DJ or part of a band, faulty equipment can bring rehearsals, recording sessions and live performances to a frustrating halt.
Based at our sister facility The Source Paris Street in Exeter city centre, The Repair Cafe is open every Thursday. Just drop in with your gear and Dan will give you a quote. Our practical, friendly place to bring your music equipment for advice, troubleshooting, basic repairs and maintenance.
From guitars and amplifiers to pedals, cables, microphones and other studio equipment, we're here to help musicians keep their gear working and their music moving.
Musical Equipment Repairs in Exeter
Musical equipment can be expensive to replace, and sometimes a fault that looks serious can be relatively straightforward to fix.
Our Repair Café is designed to help musicians understand what's wrong with their equipment and, where possible, get it working again without immediately resorting to buying something new.
We can offer help with issues including:
- Guitar and bass equipment
- Amplifiers
- Effects pedals
- Microphones
- Cables and connections
- Recording equipment
- Studio equipment
- Musical electronics
- Small electronic faults
- General equipment troubleshooting
- Maintenance and setup advice
If you're not sure what's wrong with your equipment, don't worry. Bring it along and Dan will take a look.
Keep Your Music Equipment Out of the Bin
Broken music equipment doesn't necessarily mean it's finished.
At a time when replacing electronic equipment can be expensive, repairing and maintaining your existing gear can be a much more sustainable option. Our repair café aims to help musicians extend the life of their equipment while developing a better understanding of how their gear works.
It's also an opportunity to meet other local musicians, share knowledge and become more confident looking after your own equipment.
Whether you're an experienced musician or you're just starting out, you're welcome.
From Repair to Recording
The Source Studio is a working recording studio and rehearsal studio in Exeter, so we understand the importance of having reliable equipment. We have been very fortunate that Dan has fixed lots of our gear and he has contributed significantly to helping us build a well-functioning studio.
A faulty cable, noisy guitar pedal, problematic microphone or unreliable amplifier can make a huge difference when you're trying to rehearse or record music.
That's why our Repair Café sits naturally alongside the other services we provide for musicians.
Once your equipment is working properly, you can use it in our fully equipped rehearsal room, record your next song in our Exeter recording studio, or take advantage of our music production, recording and video production services.
We can help musicians at every stage – from writing and rehearsing a song through to recording, mixing, mastering and releasing your music.
A Music Community Hub in Exeter
The Source Studio isn't just a place to record music.
We're building a space where musicians can rehearse, record, learn, collaborate, perform and develop their skills.
Our Repair Café is another way of supporting Exeter's musicians and grassroots music community.
Whether you need somewhere to rehearse with your band, want to record your first single, need high-quality live recording, videos or simply have a piece of music equipment that isn't behaving itself, we're here to help.
