Customer Testimonial: Mosrite

“I’ve owned this vintage 1960’s Mosrite “Ventures” model guitar for thirty years and have finally found a luthier I can trust to work on it. Greg agreed to do the work while I waited and it was obvious from the beginning that he knew what he was doing. The guitar now plays like butter, better than new and sounds great also. I am having so much fun playing along with all my old Ventures recordings. I would trust any guitar, new or old, with Greg as he is a consummate professional and a skilled craftsman. He has the integrity and customer service ethic I haven’t seen in decades.”
