“The playability is perfect” – Fender Stratocaster

Rich has recently upgraded the wiring, pickups, frets and setup of my standard Mexican Stratocaster. He also suggested some alterations and changes which might suit me, so that the whole process was specifically tailored to my requirements as a player. He has done such a good job that it stands up to any Strat I've ever played - if I bought an American Standard Strat this good I really would be delighted.

The playability is perfect. The tone that the hand wound 'Reverend' pickups that Rich made and installed have given he guitar is fantastic. The Reverends are responsive and just sparkle like single coils should, they also give tone distinction across the pickup selection range which allows for loads of versatility.

It's clear that Rich not only has a real skill for setting up a guitar and a great ear, but also has very exacting standards for what he does.

“The results far exceed my expectations” – Chris W

As a pro bassist with 28 years experience, I'm pretty comfortable with maintaining and setting up my instruments. However, just recently I've struggled to get them to play exactly how I want them. I was aware of Tonefinder and Rich is local to me, so I decided to let him loose on my number 1 bass to see what he could do.

The results far exceed my expectations and my bass now plays better than it has for a long time!! Rich explained every detail of what he had done and made sure I was completely happy with his work.

Happy would be an understatement! I'm ecstatic with the service I received and Rich was even happy to comply with my strict deadline request.

I have 6 more basses that will be getting the Tonefinder treatment as soon as possible and I look forward to a long relationship with Rich and Tonefinder.

“unbeatable value” – Tonefinder PAF Style Humbuckers

I received this testimonial from a very good client of mine called Mike. He was looking for a tone he'd been unable to find elsewhere and I felt he was almost at a point of giving up. The Gibson Les Paul he brought to me was a great guitar to start with but I could certainly tell where Mike was coming from when he said that it was lacking the sound he was after.

Well, after a bit of work on my part, Mike picked up his guitar. I think it's safe to say, from his testimonial below, that he's found what he's been looking for.

“YOU ARE THE F*CKING PICKUP MASTER”

Martin D had me make a set of Peter Green humbuckers for him. Here's what he had to say after he got is guitar back from having the pickup set fitted.

Hi just got my guitar back with your pick ups in. YOU ARE THE FUCKING PICK UP MASTER! The clarity is amazing, so happy with them. The guitar always looked good now it sounds even better. My brother poo-poo'ed the idea, wait while he comes round I'm gonna bust his mother loving ear drums! I will be championing your wares to anyone who will listen to me, thanks matey.

Great service – Tonefinder

I had an issue with a few frets that had worn (and one that was lifting). Richard was able to sort the whole fretboard out for me quickly and without hurting my wallet.

I also asked him to perform a full set up on my guitar (2002 Fender Stratocaster) and I must say that it's never played better.

I can't recommend Richard at Tonefinder enough. Fantastic service. Double A*!
