My Gretsch guitar has never sounded so good, it really does feel and sound like a different guitar can't thank you enough. I will have no hesitation in recommending you to my muso friends!!

I purchased a Gibson Les Paul Studio circa 1997 from eBay for about £350 (including an amp). When it arrived it looked ok but played abysmally; the intonation was all over the place, tuning it was a joke as the strings would get stuck in the nut. Some of the frets were marked / dented, and as far as the action was concerned, you could have driven a bus between the strings and the fret board. Phil took my guitar and in a matter of a few days transformed it into a thing of beauty. Now I can't seem to put it down, it almost plays itself. Thanks Phil for doing such a great job for a very reasonable price. If, reader, you are thinking of having your guitar setup and serviced, look no further, you have found the best

I found Phil through Facebook as he was recommended by a few friends of mine, I messaged him about two of my guitars that needed a good set up. He responded quickly and was able to pickup them up the next day to return them within 48 hours but even better, he stayed in contact constantly and kept me up to date with what was happening. And although I was only looking for a set up he gave me lots of advice on other things that could be carried out to make the guitar more playable. I was over the moon with the level of care and attention to detail he puts into his work

After coming across Phils ad on Gumtree I took my much battered but much loved Gibson SG in for a little tlc. I was impressed by his knowledge and workspace especially how after 5 minutes of unprompted inspection he pointed out everything that was frustrating me and clearly explained the cures. After a full set up which included a fret dress the guitar is a real treat to play again and was completed in less than 48 hours as I needed it for a weekend gig

Just recently had my guitar set up by Phil! was a pleasure to meet and talk with him and he did a cracking job with the guitar, plays like its new, would definitely recommend him to any guitarist looking a fix up!

Just a quick one to say a big thank you for your work on my SG. As predicted, I haven't been able to put it down today... It feels like a brand new guitar. The 'something' that was missing is back in buckets, and it feels wonderful. Plugged in, those pickups do a bloody marvellous job (especially in the middle position), and I'm excited to get it working hard live. The only problem is... It's now feeling and sounding superior to my main guitar - so I may call on you again in the new year!

Many thanks for the excellent setup and repair Phil. Guitars are sounding really great!

I took my Jaguar to Phil as it had both tuning and intonation problems. Nice guitar but virtually unplayable. After a few days of work on it by Phil, I went and picked up what felt like a different guitar. Money well spent. Really pleased with the result and how Phil went about things. Many thanks.

I've owned a semi-acoustic for a few years which I just haven't played as it felt awful; hugely thick strings, extremely high action etc. Having spotted Phil's adverts, I decided to give him a try. I'm very pleased I did! The semi now plays beautifully; I’ve used it with my band for practice and gigs. Plus, Phil managed to do the job within 24 hours! I was in no rush for him to finish but it was great to get the text the next day to say it was ready.  I'll definitely be using 'Guitars and Stuff' again. Thanks Phil.

I have only known Phil for a couple of months but he has transformed two of my guitars beyond recognition. The first one was a Fender Custom Shop Stratocaster 56 NOS, straight out of the factory at a cost of $3,600. It was at best, average. Phil set it up and fitted some decent strings and completely left it how it should have been built in the first place. And all for £25 + strings! My second was another Custom Shop Strat but this time, one which I had rescued from a professional musician who had wildly modified it. I brought it back to standard specification with the help of Fender Customer Support but needed the final touches. I stopped short of touching the electrics, knowing Phil could do the whole job while setting it up. He fixed several problems I couldn't find the reason for and boy, does it play well now! Better than me anyway. He's made a silk purse out of a sow's ear! Try him, you won't be disappointed. And very reasonably priced too.

Super set up on my guitar. Plays like a dream now, and stays in tune!. Very fast and friendly service. Thanks Phil

On a couple of occasions recently, I have used the services of Phil Jones at Guitars and stuff and I must say I have been impressed. He is a very friendly and knowledgeable guy with a clear love of all things guitar. The work was carried out perfectly, with a very quick turnaround, excellent communication, and with the added bonus of a very good price! Whatever your guitar needs are then give him a call – you will not regret it

I spoke with Phil not too long ago about an Ibanez I have and that I was struggling setting it up, it has been sitting in the case for a while and only pick it up now and again due to not enjoying playing it. Phil has worked his magic on it, it not only plays well now but the tone has changed for the better as well. I will definitely be using Guitars and Stuff again

In my 35 years of pro playing Phil is the best guitar technician I've ever had the pleasure of working with". He's set up for me (and worked wonders on!) numerous Les Pauls, my floyd Rose/Kahler MIJ and HMT Telecasters, my Sambora Strat and notably transformed my Ovation 6 and 12 string acoustics. He's fitted triple active EMG's to my Black Beauty and set up a Jimmy Page split phase wiring install on my Les Paul lemon drop, he also arranged to have this stripped back from a terribly relic'd Gold Top and relaquered to flame maple lemon...it's now amazing!!! His prices are very fair considering the superb quality of his work and, he has gone out of his way many times to accommodate my requests and often picks up and delivers in and around Bristol to me. I would like to take this opportunity to Thank You Phil + wish you all the best Sol Ray...

Thanks again for your prompt and professional works to my guitars. I am truly happy with everything and will be back for anymore advice and work. Also I will obviously refer you to my musical friends.

After months of tuning problems, fret buzz and noisy electronics the set-up you did on my Tele has completely transformed the sound and playability of the guitar. Compared with work I've had done in the past, it was very reasonably priced and done in time with my needs. First class! Cheers, Phil. 🙂

Phil has set up several guitars from my collection this year, including electrics and acoustics. The work has been consistently impeccable, delivered promptly, and has resulted in much improved playability each time. He is also very easy to deal with, and seems to know exactly what I want from a guitar. I have no hesitation in recommending Phil to anyone wanting to get the best out of their instrument, and I shall certainly be calling on Phil to work some more of his magic on my guitars into the future.

Have to say that the work was excellent, great service for an affordable price. I didn't bother to take my instruments; Phil picked them up and returned. I'm very happy and I highly recommend.

Would just like to say Thank you Phil, my Lemon Drop sounds and feels like a £2000 guitar all for a very a small fee. I’ll certainly bring it back to you when it needs doing again and when I get other guitars (I hope the wife is not reading this). Once again thanks...
