Restring-A-Thon FAQs
How it Works
- Meet us at The Magic Flute, Northgate One | Terra Linda
- Make a $20 donation (or more!) and get a set of new strings
- Hand your instrument and strings to a tech (you may need to stand in line)
What if donated strings run out?
Supplies are limited. First come, first served. If we’ve run out of donated string sets, you are welcome to purchase a set and get the restring for a $20 donation.
PLEASE NOTE: 6-string acoustic and electric guitars are welcome. Our goal is to do as many restrings as possible in 3 hours so please no 12-string guitars, bass guitars, or locking tremolos/Floyd Rose.
What if time runs out?
We may decide to keep going or offer an extension to those in line. With an extension, customers would have to bring their guitars back by the designated due date in order to take advantage of the offer.
Can I bring more than one guitar?
Yes, each guitar restring is $20. Because we want to serve as many customers as possible during the event, we may ask you to bring your additional guitars in the following week to receive the same offer.
Can I purchase an alternate set of strings?
Sure. But the service will still require a $20 donation.
Are ukes, basses and mandolins eligible?
This particular event is for 6-string electric and acoustic guitars and 4-string ukuleles only.
Can I donate more to Sweet Relief Musicians Fund?
Absolutely! You can offer more than $20 for your restring or you can donate directly at sweetrelief.org
Sweet Relief Musicians Fund
Helping Musicians and Music Industry Workers in Need
Sweet Relief was founded by singer-songwriter Victoria Williams in 1994. Victoria, while on a career-making tour with Neil Young, was forced to drop off mid-schedule after experiencing unexplained debilitating symptoms. A long and painful diagnostic process revealed she had multiple sclerosis.
After her diagnosis, a group of friends assembled an all-star album of Victoria’s songs, Sweet Relief, which alleviated much of her medical debt. Vic, aware that there were many musicians like her -unable to afford medical expenses and compromised in their ability to work- donated some of her proceeds from the album to found Sweet Relief Musicians Fund.
