"Got in touch with John to resolve some issues with my Yamaha bass guitar (buzzing strings). At the appointment John showed me where the problem was and explained how he would fix it. I really appreciate his expertise along with good and clear communication. I got my guitar back, perfectly set up, within few hours. I also learned a few tips! Very happy with the service and affordable price. Definitely recommend for the future!"

"I found John through a Google search, as my bass suddenly developed fret buzz, the neck also felt snd looked a little bowed. Fearing it the truss rod needed adjustment I sent a message through the website. John messaged me back an hour or so later and as I was so near he came to pick my bass up. It required a few other adjustments and the next day I was able to collect it. He has set it up do well she sounds and plays beautifully. John was lovely to deal with and very knowledgeable, his passion for instruments really came across. I would 100% recommend his services and will be definitely returning! Bonus is he is a few minutes walk away! Thank you John! 😀"

If you need any guitar repairs in the Loughton area, I can’t recommend John highly enough. We’ll definitely be coming back if we ever need anything else. Thanks again, John!

"There was something unique about John's Guitar Repair Services when I came across it on my Google search and I am so happy that I followed my instincts. I did not mind that I had to go on the motorway to get there either. He brought two guitars back to life for my little girl. These guitars are of sentimental value as we have had them for eight years now - since our 'now teenage son' was 6... John did his magic to the guitars. Updated us with videos and photos while work was going on and I must say it was quick and fairly priced! But most of all, it was his friendly aura and description of work to be done on the guitars that impressed me most. I highly recommend him! Thank you very much John 😊 We appreciate hugely!"

"I'm a newbie learning the guitar and my chord had snapped and cut me. I found loughton guitar on google and John contacted me within the day.

It's likely I will be back for future repairs and guitar lessons. Thanks so much John!"
