Neither is tuning up a car engine - as long as you have the necessary skills and - more importantly - all the necessary tools and equipment. Don't assume that everyone is blessed with the same skills that you have acquired.

I think most of us do our own setups, but if I've just bought a particularly expensive guitar, or if I've got a particular problem that I'm not confident with, I'll always take it to my tech.

Sure, he charges top money, but the feel of that guitar when you get it back is just amazing.

Some folks do their own cooking & cleaning, others like to pay someone to do it for them. Sometimes it's nice to pay for someone else to sweat over your favourite guitar!
