Guitar Upgrades in Lincoln

Want a Guitar that’s Better than New?

Do you want a brighter sharper tone, or a real heavy metal high output? Or do you have an old guitar that you think is fit for nothing but the bin?

You might spend £300-£400 on a new guitar and it still might not play and sound right. I can dress your frets (making the action as sweet as anything you can buy new), replace the pickups and re-wire the entire guitar to make it better than new.

If you’ve fantasised about a spectacular one-off guitar, I also offer custom paint finishes and wraps.

Also if you have an old cherished friend of a guitar that you think is fit for nothing but the bin, call me first! I also offer full renovation services.
