Testimonials
“Good communications, can’t wait to have my guitars set up!
My two guitars have now been set up, I’m really impressed so much easier to play now the actions have been lowered, I needed a new selector switch and Adam supplied a new one and included it in the price!
Very happy with Adam’s workmanship.”
“I highly recommend Southampton Guitar Repairs. I took two guitars to Adam recently, one required a new jack socket and a new volume pot’, the other required a setup. Adam gave honest, helpful advice and the repairs were carried out to a very high standard. High quality, friendly service and the pricing was very fair, next time any of my guitars require any work I’ll be sure to contact Adam first. Cheers Adam!”
“Adam has done a grand job on some simple setups to fret work and full transformations. Always well priced, communication is great and he pays a level of attention that you rarely see. I wouldn’t take my gear anywhere else and would thoroughly recommend him to anyone.”
“Just got my Gibson ES175 back from Adam. What a transformation. A great repair and superb set-up - it plays like a dream. An excellent service and great value for money. I will definitely use Adam again.”
“I put my Troy Sanders Fender P Bass in for a full setup, and I wasn’t disappointed. Adam has done a fantastic job, and the bass sounds amazing! I know where I will be taking my basses in the future. I can not recommend him highly enough! Thank you.”
“Adam is the only person I’d go to for set up and service. He did a stellar job on setting up my Fender Jaguar bass after I installed some new components.”
“I am a professional musician and have been for 20+ years. This means my guitars are played 7 days a week for around 9 hours a day. I would struggle to do my job without Adam’s expert work on keeping my guitars in full working order. Because of Adam my instruments have never let me down.
I would not even contemplate using anyone else. I cannot recommended him highly enough.”
“If anyone needs any Guitar work done I can highly recommend Adam. He helped out massively while I was Studying a Southampton Solent Uni in his position as Music Technician, whether it’s pedal boards, valve amps or general tech advise he was always professional and helpful. He has done many of my Guitars/Basses (Fender, PRS, Taylor) and they always come out perfect!”
“I can not recommend Adam enough, he is the best. I’ve asked him to fix up a couple of my guitars over the years and they always come back as if brand new. He’s a great guy, and knows his stuff. If you’re guitars are in need of a fix up Adam is the guy for you.”
“I’m a choosey sod when it comes to guitar repairs and setups. I’ve had bad experiences with in store repairs and their inability to set up properly or listen to what I want I’m glad I’ve found someone who knows what they are doing.
Adam listens to what you want, no matter how crazy the request and charges a fair value for the work being done. He’s cut me custom pickguards, done setups and rewiring jobs for me, all to a high standard.
Most of my guitar aren’t exactly cheap and I would trust Adam with all of them.”
“Adam is very helpful and friendly and he provides an excellent service that I would highly recommend to any guitarist/bassist. I’ve had my bass in with Adam and now it plays exactly how I wanted it to. It sounds way better compared to when I gave it to him so if you need any repairs or set-ups on your instrument then get it to Adam. I’ll definitely be back soon.”

About Me
MY NAME IS adam
As soon as I started playing I started working on my own guitars. It has always fascinated me to find out how something works. And when I started playing guitar nothing seemed more mysterious than that.
I always pride myself on making any guitar play better than before. The main goal is to make you want to play your guitar more and more.
I cut my teeth working in Fret Music. Learning all there is to know about guitar specs, what makes an American Strat different to a Mexican, to learning the tricks of the trade when it comes to repair work.
From there I built up contacts and started working out on the road with bands as a touring backline tech. Applying what I knew from the shop and learning how to work a stage.
I'm still learning - things I've never done before, as well as how to do simple tasks more and more efficiently, I love a challenge.
