Andrew is recovering from a hand injury.He will not be repairing until he is recovered and his new workshop is properly up and running , and then he will be working on a more selected smaller volume of repairs,while branching into more vintage restorations and he will be developing his own range of Guitars, and custom made parts and scratch plates.

If you have a repair already at the shop we will contact you when it is done and make an appointment for you to pick it up.
