I guess i'm lucky
the main reason i have a tech look at them once a year is to maintain them in a nice condition, he gives them a good service and it just ensures my guitars stay in a nice playing condition, If you have the tools and knowlage then you can do it yourself but personally i don't fancy tackling the job of dressing and levelling frets etc... so i'm happy to get a pro to do it for me.
