Aron Robbins — Savior Guitar

About

Aron Robbins

Guitar Tech · Coach · Musician · Songwriter

I've been working on guitars for over 15 years, but my relationship with stringed instruments goes back even further. I picked up my first guitar as a teenager and never put it down. What started as curiosity about why my guitar didn't feel right turned into a deep dive into the craft of instrument setup and repair.

Based in Goldsboro, North Carolina, I serve players across the region who want their instruments to play and sound their absolute best. Whether it's a beat-up road warrior that needs some love or a brand-new guitar that needs to be dialed in, every instrument gets my full attention and care.

The name “Savior Guitar” reflects what matters most to me. As a disciple of Yeshua, my faith is the foundation of everything I do — including how I treat the people and instruments that come through my shop. I believe in honest work, fair pricing, and treating every guitar like it's my own.

Beyond the bench, I'm a musician and songwriter. I write and perform music rooted in faith, life, and the stories that matter. Being a player myself gives me a unique perspective as a tech — I don't just set up guitars, I understand what players need because I am one.

My Approach

How I think about guitar care

Every guitar has a story, and every player has a unique feel they're after. My job isn't to impose a standard setup on every instrument — it's to listen to what you need and dial in your guitar to match YOUR playing style.

I believe in doing things right the first time. That means using quality materials, taking the time to get details right, and never cutting corners. A setup isn't just about measurements — it's about how the guitar feels in your hands and sounds to your ears.

I also believe in education. I love teaching players how their instruments work so they can take better care of their gear between visits. An informed player is a happier player.
