I am an old school craftsman and have been working on electric guitars and amps for over 40 years. I promise to treat your gear like it was mine. I’m meticulous. Maybe to a fault. I will help you get the most out of your guitar and/or amp. From repairs and restoration, to mods designed around your goals, to bespoke instruments. Whatever is right for you.

Here are a few images of the shop!
The front room holds a majority of the instruments and has a “quiet” sound for you to try your instrument once maintenance, repair or mods have been completed. It’s also an ideal space to experiment with different instruments, amps and pedals if you are interested in a new instrument. Of course, this can be an ideal space to shoot a video or have a two/three-person jam.
The bench is where a majority of the instrument work happens, though I roll out the tools for the big work. As you’ll see when you come here, there are many other tools, many of which I’ve made, to accomplish a wide variety of instrument work.
The Jam Space is further into the space and has: a PA with mixers, recording capability and mics; drum kit; key board; bass and guitar instruments and amps. The space is super comfortable and can be configured as necessary for trying instruments, an impromptu jam or a rehearsal/video shoot. Please hit the contact to discuss your needs and interest to use this space.
And as always, there is much more to the shop than shown here. Lots to see, to discuss and the best part is that it’s a great place to have fun!.
