Highly recommended! Did a fantastic job on an ageing 90s Fender that needed a bit of love. Guitar now looks great, feels great and most importantly sounds great. Thank you Pedro!

Pedro did a a wonderful refret of my 4001 Rickenbacker bass. This is a tricky refret due to the amount of varnish that is on the fretboard, which can shatter. The finish is beautiful, there are no noticeable marks on the varnish, and the neck binding is still in perfect condition. My beloved Rickenbacker is now so much nicer to play as the action is better and it also holds tune better when I play higher up the neck. It looks great after the clean and polish and new scratchplate screws! Amazing work. I would totally recommend Pedro for repairs and set up of your most precious guitar.

Pedro was recommended to me and I've now had two guitars set up by him - a 1950's vintage archtop electric and a more recent semi hollow electric. I was so pleased with the results - Pedro's expertise and attention to detail ensures that a guitar, irrespective of its age or design, is set up to be the best it possibly can be. I now wouldn't consider going to anyone else. Thanks Pedro!

I've used many luthiers and none have managed to get my Taylor playing like Pedro has. It is interesting in hindsite how other luthiers have given me back my guitar with such a high action and intonation issues now I have seen how it could have been. Highly recommend

I discovered Pedro through google and after reading all of the glowing reviews, I can say they're all accurate. Had the pleasure of having my 7 string Ibanez guitar serviced by Pedro a few months ago. I emailed him regarding a fret levelling, and is very responsive to emails and amazing at offering advice. Once my guitar was taken in, he informed me of everything that needed doing and also called me regarding the bridge screw height, offering to swap out the screws so the action was higher due to the stock screws not being long enough. He was also honest about the nut I requested to be changed being the same as the one already installed on my guitar, and said that he didn't want to overcharge me when there would be no real improvement. I embarrassingly turned up at the wrong time to collect my guitar buy Pedro still came back to hand it over! The price was reasonable for the amount of work done and my guitar still plays amazingly. Thank you Pedro! You have turned a guitar I almost sold into a guitar I love playing.

My Ibanez needed a bit of tlc and a long overdue service. Pedro fixed all the issues, very quick, very reasonable price and it plays like new, would definitely recommend and use again
