You owe it to yourself and your guitar to call Robin now! I’ve been playing guitar for over 30 years and have owned all the big named guitars, and have bought and sold them as finances and children and wives has allowed!

I’ve been meaning to write to you for a while now to thank you for your work on the two guitars I brought to you. In particular the Mexican Strat has been an absolute joy to play.

John M. : Epiphone SG Twin-neck and Vintage Reissued Telecaster
Just a short note to Thank You again for sorting out these 2 guitars. I’ve had a good old play on them after getting them back home.

Paul Shanahan, Cupids inspiration: Classic Vibe Telecaster
Took my battered Classic Vibe Telecaster to Rob to sort the neck problems I had with it – buzz on frets, worn frets, in fact a bit of a mess! (but love the sound and feel of it!.) Rob did a bit of magic with a superb fret dress and a couple of other adjustments – tell you what…it plays Read More …
