Hiwatt - Guitar Summit 2024
Fretbuzz, the story so far...
Hi, I'm Tom! I have been honing my skills as a Guitar Technician for over 15 years whilst being a touring musician and UK music festival promoter. I also work on location if needed, I was recently hired as Guitar Tech for Amyl & The Sniffers.
As well as being a full-time Luthier, I am also the UK Custom Shop Engineer at Hiwatt. Recent bands I have worked on amps for include; The Killers, Eagles Of Death Metal, Placebo, Yard Act, Supergrass, Roger Waters, Dinosaur Jr, The Darkness & more...
My ultimate mission: to bring a reliable, high-quality Guitar Repair Service to the South Yorkshire area, as well as further afield.....if you fancy the trip to my Workshed! My passion for excellence is what inspired me to set up shop. All my jobs are completed with meticulous detail, I like to keep all my customers updated with regular photos of the work as I go, and I'm always available to instruct and help with the purchase of instruments, upgrading pickups, refinishing ideas, or even new hardware or different tunings! Whatever you need, give me a shout, and let's get to work! I now also offer fully customised wiring looms and hand wound pickups to suit any spec!
Fretbuzz is about more than simply being a guitar repair workshop, it's also about building a community-based hub with a like-minded passion for getting the best out of their instruments.
