The Guitar Guy

I am a guitar restorer specialising in vintage Asian guitar brands.

What do I do?

I restore old guitars that are dirty, bashed about and need some TLC.

I repair damaged guitars such as body & lacquer cracks, breaks in the neck & headstock, loose binding and joints, dents, scrapes.

I buy and sell guitars, mostly vintage and mostly asian brands (Yamaha, Aria, Ibanez, Tokai, Suzuki, Kimbara), alongside others.

I talk about guitar tips to keep your guitar in good condition and how to spot dangers signs of wear.

I live in the UK and have been playing guitar since 1982. I have owned the following guitars:

Yamaha classical
Epiphone DR100 (1985)
Fender Squire Strat (1988)
