Tonefinder Guitar & Amp Service + Repairs

Giovanni Coppola ★★★★★ a month ago
Took my Marshal Amp in to get fixed, I'm not sure what he did but it sounds 100000% better! Highly recommend and most … More certainly be returning for any repairs that I need in the future.

Richard made a pickup for my lp studio a few months ago and it sounds amazing. He really took the time to listen to what … More I wanted and then came up with a pickup that went beyond my expectations. I'm already thinking about getting him to do another one for me. Top guy, amazing knowledge and customer service. I strongly recommend him.

“an instrument that’s now a dream to play” – Ibanez electro-acoustic

Big Thank you to Rich of Tone Finder for setting up my guitar, turning a mid range cheap guitar into an instrument that's now a dream to play, even my bad playing is easier and a pleasure to listen too. If you're looking for a guitar revamp at a more than reasonable price go to www.tonefinder.net Thanx Richard.

Definitely coming back to you with my two Strats next!

Just got to say a huge thanks to Rich for the superb fret-dress on my Epiphone SG. Not only did he do a graduated fall away from the 12th fret upwards like I asked, but went on from a 13" radius into a flatter 14" for an incredible playground up the dusty end. Definitely coming back to you with my two Strats next!

“You weaved your magic and now it sings…”

Hi Rich, I just wanted say how lucky it was to find you for the rewire, coil wind and set up of my son Andy's old Audition hollowbody guitar.

I really thought we'd seen the last of it until we stumbled across you on Google purely by chance. What a lucky break. You understood exactly what we wanted and were honest about what could expect within a fairly tight budget.

You rewound the dead coil to perfection, completely rewired the electrics, saved the original pots (important) and managed to fit a new bridge where the previous owner had glued and screwed the old one.

Now, why was it important to reuse as many of the 1970's parts as possible from such a budget guitar? Well, before it fell apart it sounded great and was Andy's pride and joy, like a third arm. When it "died" he thought he had lost that lovely tone forever. You said reusing parts rather than buying new would help keep that original tone. To be honest, I don't know anything about guitars and I thought perhaps you were just trying to keep the cost down for us...but when he played it, it was like getting an old friend back.

It sounds great again and with a bit of care will stay sounding great for another 40+ years. You weaved your magic and now it sings like the beautiful old girl it is.

Top bloke, highly recommended.

Cheers,

Gary

“the work you did on my Epiphone LP has just transformed it!” – Epiphone Les Paul Standard

"Hi Rich, just wanted to let you know the work you did on my Epiphone LP has just transformed it! Taken to a couple of practices, just so much more usable. Any bad sounds are now down to my fingers...

“I am more than impressed…” – Custom pickups

Wayne B asked me to make some custom spec humbucker pickups for him. Here's what he had to say about them:

"I gave Rich a brief of what I wanted and he more than delivered.

I had only had my Epiphone Les Paul for 4 days when I delivered it to Rich for him to make a set of Humbuckers based upon the ones Peter Green/Gary Moore famous old Gibson.

And I am more than impressed with Rich's take on them. Not only are they as clear as a bell they are also tonally amazing but they sing for days. Rich also made them coil tappable for added versatility.

And I am very hard to please as anyone who knows me will tell you.

So if you are still searching for sonic Aural pleasure then stop reading this and contact Rich.....I personally guarantee you will not regret it."
