Songwriters' Studio Services/Robert Heft Owner Affordable professional recording services, live on-site mobile recording, guitar/bass lessons, guitar/bass setup and some repairs.

I founded Songwriters' Studio Services in 1984 with the concept of providing songwriters an affordable and creative studio to develop and record quality demos, jingles, and independent albums. Being a songwriter, and being involved with many other prolific writers, I felt there was a need in the community for local musicians to have a home base to hone their craft. Over the many years in existence

, the studio has produced many recordings of new songs, audition tapes, karaoke tracks, radio spots, and independent album productions. Songwriters' Studio Services has also been an educational site for new engineers and producers to advance their recording skills. The studio is located in Sherwood Forest, CA., centrally located in the San Fernando Valley. It is a 900 square-foot facility utilizing a control room, lounge, amp room, vocal/acoustic booth, and a performance room for live drums. Private and personal, the comfortable rooms provide for quality sound and quiet recording. Vaulted 15-foot high ceilings allow for additional air space and ambience. A Mackie 8-buss mixer and the Steinberg Cubase digital computer recording system drive the studio as well as an Alesis HD24 digital recorder for 24 bit unlimited tracking potential. A full back-line is available for you to use including quality guitar/bass amplifiers and drums. Included with your sessions, I will produce, engineer, and contribute guitar, bass, and pedal steel guitar services at your request for no additional fees. Also available to you is a large selection of quality musicians for any style of music (additional fees and scheduling required). Songwriters' Studio Services can master your final mixes in preparing your project for the final stages of production. We will work with you to ensure a positive experience with quality results, along with creating a personal and comfortable environment for you to enjoy your music. Robert Heft is available as a producer, engineer, studio, or performance guitarist/bassist/pedal steel guitarist for productions with Songwriters' Studio Services or for freelance situations. Studio prices are $45/hour all inclusive. You can also book a same-day 6-hour block rate at $250. For any information involving sessions, scheduling, or performance dates,

Look at this beautiful guitar! Handmade R. C. Allen belonging to my friend Gary Adelstein. It has a bad case of fret sprout which I'm going to repair today along with a setup. Thank you Gary for bringing this instrument to me. If any of you need work on your guitars or basses give me a buzz. 818.400.6294. Northridge, CA

Here is a repair that I've never done before and it's on my own Gibson SG. As magical as this guitar is, pieces keep falling apart on it. Three weeks ago my 9th fret inlay popped out on stage and we couldn't find it. With no help from Gibson, I was able to order some acrylic inlays from a source in Canada. It's definitely a crap shoot finding inlays that will match color wise for the rest of the guitar which is a 2008 and is slightly aged. This one is whiter than the others which are slightly aged yellowish, but I can't play the guitar without the inlay replaced. Many thanks to Pat Wilkins for tips on the inlay replacement and installation. If I screw it up he'll just end up with the job anyway lol. Wish me luck.

Do you know what I do when it's 100 and f***** degrees out, I sit in an air conditioned studio and fix Stratocasters. This beautiful Strat Plus belongs to Gary Adelstein, I think he said it's a 94 or 95. Getting the gouges out of the frets and doing a nice dress on this baby.

It's been awhile since I made some clocks. I do this as a hobby and it gives me something to do outside of music work. They are completely hand-crafted so no 2 are alike. Some of the reels still have recorded sessions on them. I do sell them also, local only as they are way too fragile to ship. The LPs are $20 and the reels are $35. The artists on the LPs can't really be chosen but the label and the color of the label can be. I don't have a large selection. I do have a selection of reels but they're all used and some are scratched up. That's the beauty of it, individual. Anyway if you want one of these for your home or studio give me a buzz. I love them 😁
