Great service, quickly repaired a loose wire in my Jazz Bass then gave me some priceless advice about string tightness and not doing my own fretwork! Then some great bass chat.

Chris always provides top quality service. Every time I get a guitar back having dropped it in for some work, it comes back in the most playable condition. High quality work, honest craftsmen and takes real care over every detail. Highly recommend Chris for all your guitar needs

Ive been playing guitar for almost 2 years now and Ive been coming to Chris for all my repairs. Hes patient, gives me helpful advice and overall a great guy. He has just recent changed the nut on my guitar and it plays beautifully. Will be coming here in future for getting work done. Thanks again Chris

Dropped 2 acoustics off to Chris (one 40+ year old Yamaha and one months old Taylor) for set ups and fret crowning on the Yamaha. Could not be happier with the results. He went above and beyond with the Taylor as well as it needed a bit more work. Also did it much faster than expected. We'll be coming back for all future guitar work! Thanks!

I sent two more guitars to Chris for some TLC - and he did a fab job ! V happy with the results. Brand new Gibson 1934 Jumbo reissue acoustic - saddle was too low for me but the slot was so shallow to hold a taller saddle, so Chis v carefully cut a deeper groove in the bridge & placed a much better fitting new saddle. Now the action is perfect for fretting & playing slide. He also installed a K&K pickup in it - and its now the best acoustic sounding pickup guitar Ive ever heard ! Was way better than I was expecting !! Other guitar was a circa 1954-57 Kay K-136 electric with a massive neck, with a really wide fretboard, needing a ref-ret AND try to sort the grounding hum. Chris is a master of silencing all the hum, even on all the weird & wonderful vintage guitars I bring him ! Planing the fretboard & re-fretting it was a 110% top job ! New nut, plus he made a new rosewood bridge to exact same look of the original one, all to my preferred string spacing high demands, ha ha ! All fab !!! Great work !!! Ill be back !!! Id add photos but I dontmonow how !!
