Tom's bio
I am a luthier, a maker, repairer and restorer of guitars, basses and related instruments.
I have a good reputation long earned as a senior and well respected UK luthier since 1985. I guarantee my results, charge sensible prices and go long on customer care. No jobs too small or large, from set ups to complete rebuilds, lacquer repairs, custom electronics, fretwork..anything required.
I do not charge for truss rod adjustments or diagnostics and give accurate quotes before commencing any work.
I am also a teacher and lecturer on luthiery at local institutions and abroad. I run a monthly Luthier’s Club every 2nd Wednesday of the month at The Rising Sun Inn, Botus Fleming nr. Saltash (see Facebook groups Luthier’s Club) for musicians with an interest in how their instruments really work and getting the best from them.
I am a recording and session guitarist and perform in Cornwall at local venues. I run the monthly Open Mic session at The Union Inn, Saltash every 3rd Wednesday of the month.
