Making, repairing and customising guitars in B’ham, since 1977.

I’ve been repairing and customising all types of guitars and stringed instruments in Birmingham since 1977. Over the years, I’ve refurbished and renovated many old and valuable guitars using original materials and lacquers. Authenticity is what it’s all about when it comes to playability, looks and retaining the sale value of your guitar.

Common repairs

Broken headstocks. Damaged necks and bodies. Refrets. Fretdressing and setup. Electrical repairs. Resprays.

Pickups (advice offered if required). Machine heads (standard or locking). Bridges and saddles for electrics. Bespoke pickguards. TUSQ topnuts and saddles for acoustic guitars. Piezo pickup systems for acoustic guitars.

Handmade guitars

For the pro players and guitar enthusiasts, I create bespoke, handmade, solid electric guitars. These are made to order using your own choice of speciality woods, hardware and finishes.

Some of the guitars I’ve made are shown below.
