PRICE GUIDE
If you're in the Newbury, Berkshire area and you're in need of just a simple set up, a rewire, re-fret, new nut, repair, modifications or over the top customisations on your guitar... I may just be your man. For some reason from an early age I had an ear (and an eye!) for vintage gear, from Moogs, Rhodes and Hammonds to Supros, Gibsons and Matamps and all points inbetween. Never being afraid of gigging vintage rarities it put me in the unenviable position of having to work twice as hard just to keep things in playing condition... not realising though at the time of how much knowledge was being gained!
