My honest appraisal is included below. The guy who bought my Ibanez RG that you worked on also thought it was the best Ibanez he’d ever played, so I reckon he’s pretty happy too!
I can honestly say that taking my guitars to Nigel has proved one of the best choices I’ve ever made during my years as a guitar player and trader. Not only has he taken very run-of-the-mill instruments and made them extraordinary, but he has a fine ear for what sounds sweet too, so instruments come back from him not only feeling delightful to play but also sounding great. The guitars I own that he has worked on are flat-out the best guitars I have ever played.
The standard of Nigel’s work has always been extremely high, (at very competitive prices), but he also offers a level of after-sales advice and service that is second to none. Working with Nigel has not only improved my guitars, but also my playing and my understanding of how the instruments perform. It helps too that he’s always easily contactable and willing to take the time to discuss a particular job or request.
I would certainly not need to look anywhere else for the highest quality setup and repair work on my guitars, and would not hesitate in giving Nigel my highest recommendation for his service and craftsmanship.
Cheers,
Rob
