Workshop

We have been making, mending and modifying guitars and other stringed instruments since 1987. Our workshops are fully equipped for all aspects of luthiery including setups, hones, refrets, breaks. We pride ourselves on being amongst the very best and most experienced luthiers anywhere in the UK.

We assess every instrument and provide a detailed quote on examination because every guitar and player’s need is different.

Customers return year after year – and the reason is they tell us that they play better because their guitars play better.
