Melde Guitar Co. brings dedicated guitar repair and instrument care to Duluth, Minnesota, led by owner Jonah Melde. A lifelong musician who grew up on classic hard rock and metal, Jonah has been immersed in music since middle school, playing in concert bands, rock groups, and church worship teams throughout the Duluth area. His hands-on experience as a guitarist since seventh grade informs his approach to guitar tech work.

The shop specializes in high-quality repairs at accessible prices, handling everything from basic guitar setup and fretwork to complete customization projects. Their service menu includes professional restringing, guitar cleaning, rehydration for dried-out instruments, and comprehensive repair work on almost any issue players encounter. While they don’t offer refinishing services, Melde Guitar Co. will customize instruments extensively to match each musician’s vision.

As a local luthier committed to the Duluth music community, Jonah combines technical skill with genuine passion for keeping guitars in peak playing condition. The shop’s flexible evening and weekend hours accommodate working musicians who need reliable instrument repair without the premium price tag.
