I'm a qualified guitar technician with nearly a decade's experience working on all sorts of string instruments. After completing my NVQ-2 in France at ITEMM (the European Institute for Technical Professions in Music),

I came to London, where I managed the workshop at Wunjo Guitars in Denmark Street for five years.

​

During Covid-19 I stopped working in Denmark Street as all the shops were closed and started my own business.

​

Over the years I've worked on really cool vintage instruments but also new guitars and basses including well-known American brands such as Fender, Gibson, Martin, Rickenbacker, Gretsch, Guild, but also lesser-known cool brands such as Vox, Hofner, Eko, Harmony, Kay, Hagstrom, Ovation, Burns, Silvertone, Airline, Mosrite, Danelectro, Ampeg, Steinberger, Kramer and Japanese stuff like Teisco, Guyatone, and many more...

​

While I love old stuff, I'm happy working on any instrument to make it great to play. Most of the time people don't know that a good setup makes for a much better playing experience.

​

I do setups, fret dress, shaping new bone nuts and saddles, electronic repairs and pickup replacements, and more extensive jobs like refreting, crack repairs and neck break repairs.

 

I service and repair classical, acoustic and electric guitars, basses, resonators, lapsteels, mandolins, banjos, ukuleles. I've also worked on less common string instruments from all around the world. If you have a string instrument and want it looked at, send me a message - I'd love to take a look.
