Single Coil Guitar Repairs

Single Coil Guitar Repairs Leeds No1 Guitar Repair Service! Now based at Old Chapel Studios, Czar St, Holbeck, Leeds A conclusion I have reached after many years of experience.

At Single Coil Guitar Repairs I believe that virtually any guitar can be improved with a set up and made to play, sound, feel and look better with a little work and time spent on it. Even new guitars often need a quick set up to realise their full potential. Beginners often give up trying to learn the guitar, after struggling with an instrument with a high action (or sometimes too low), poor intonation and dirty, dead strings.

Push-button mid ‘60s madness.
This almost pristine Goya Rangemaster has an impressive array of (very) old school lever-operated tone controls and questionable pick up combinations. It also has a handy mirrored volume k**b for checking your hair mid solo. What more could you ask for from a guitar?

Before and after. It’s amazing what a difference a bit of a clean up can make. I love the enamelled truss rod cover on this mid ‘60s Swedish-built Levin.

I wonder what’s in this beaten up old case?
It’s only Keith Richard’s black Les Paul Custom, the 1 he used on “Honky Tonk Women” and all that other stuff.
Rock’n’Roll history right here in my humble workshop. What an honour.

CAT STEVEN’S GIBSON J200. No doubt about this one as there are plenty of photos of him playing it and the distinctive dark stripes and custom-made bone saddle make it unmistakable.
It doesn’t quite have the same finesse as “Elvis’s” Martin D18 but is still a lovely, work-horse guitar with the signature J200 bottom-end “thump”

This 1970 Martin D18 belonged to Charlie Hodge, 1 of Elvis’s “Memphis Mafia” buddies. The story is that the guitar was given to Charlie by Elvis himself.
Whatever the truth is, it’s a beautiful-sounding and playing guitar.

I’ve never had one of these in my workshop before but this one is a real beauty. Great build quality, lovely ‘70s Fender-style neck, chunky but not too clubby, a fabulous-sounding single P90 pick up and an awful lot of lacquer checking.
