TESTIMONIALS FROM SHOP CLIENTS

  • "I've been singing your praises and forwarding your website to all my guitar-playing buddies since
    you finished the work on my Jagmaster... I'm as thrilled with it now as I was two months ago when
    I picked it up from you.  Your work was flawless and this guitar plays beautifully." - Andrew S

  • ."Just wanted to let you know that I jammed with the "Mosrite" last night and it sounded and played
    great." - Ted T

  • "I was in town on tour for one day with a bass that died a horrible sonic death the night before (I
    had to finish the show on a keyboard).  The next day we contacted Morgan, and within a few hours
    he got the thing in better than new condition (I assume- it's a cheap old bass).  At first he
    encouraged me to consider a new instrument, but he listened while I described what I like about
    this one and he went about strengthening its weaknesses.  This pieced-together bass has since
    been on the Conan O'Brien show, all around the U.S. and Europe, and is headed to Australia this
    week.  A true craftsman and a gentleman.  If you love your instruments, trust them to Morgan."
    Jeremy Y.- bass and guitar with Andrew Bird

  • "Been playing this thing a little bit over the last few days, and I just wanted to let you know what a
    fantastic job you did.  The guitar looks great, and it plays better than it ever has (and like I always
    thought it should).  And I love the pickups.  Great sound and very little noise.  Perfect.  Thanks
    again." - Jake R.

  • "When I brought my Pacifica to Morgan, it was borderline unplayable. I got it back a few days later
    good as new, and it didn't cost me a lot." - Mike

  • Morgan does a great guitar set-up – in my case a Stratocaster.  He is thorough and professional,
    and he makes sure the customer is happy with the instrument before it leaves the shop.  Perhaps
    more importantly, he is a player as well as a guitar tech, so he understands the intangibles that
    make a guitar set-up as much art as science.  I will definitely use his services again.   Bill K.

  • "Hi Morgan - Just wanted to let you know I've been playing my guitars since I got home and they
    both sound FANTASTIC! The Tele is a different guitar - I can hear all the nuances and it just sings!
    Thanks for giving my guitars new life."   - Phil F

  • "Everyone is very happy with the work you performed on the guitars. As for me, my guitar has not
    performed this well since I've had it. I really appreciate your talent."  Scott R - Wildcard Band

  • "Morgan, as usual, your guitar work came out exactly like it has in the past.  Impeccable attention
    to detail, and an overall feeling of  "I got my moneys worth". Keep up the good work." - John C -
    Wildcard Band

  • "Just wanted to say "THANX " for all the great work and care you put into my guitar.The tuning and
    intonation is unbelievable...It seems everyone in the band feels he same way - Stan P - Wildcard
    Band

  • "This guitar is simply amazing!  I feel like I'm hearing and playing  guitar for the first time.  The best
    compliment I can offer on your  work is that this Jagmaster makes me want to be a better player.  
    The wiring scheme you suggested is absolutely the best.  The choices  available with coil taps
    and both series and out of phase options  have really got me exploring the limits.  Full
    humbuckers in series  just pushes things over the top, perfect for some balls-to-the-wall  rock
    songs.  The out of phase is great with both coils split.  With a  clean setting and a little chorus I
    find it reminiscent  of Andy  Summers and the Police.  That's what I was hoping for!  I've also  
    found adding a single bridge coil out of phase really sounds great  with the full neck pickup -
    mellow neck pickup with a bit of sparkle  added to it.  Nice!  The fit and finish of the job is top
    notch.  The neck and frets look  great.  The action is great.  Everything is great.  Let's hope I  never
    have to find out first hand the benefit of the anti-shock  capacitor.  The shielding is doing its job,
    because I don't hear any  hum when I split the coils.  Good call on adding that.  I'll be sharing your
    name and website with all my guitar playing  friends.  I feel more compelled then ever to bring my
    other guitars  in now.  They all need a sprinkle of your guitar tech fairy dust.  Thanks again for a
    fantastic job.  It was worth every penny and then  some!  - Andrew S

  • "I wanted to drop you a line and send my praise for your fantastic repairs to my Black Fender
    American Strat. A couple months ago I had you install a graphite nut and give the guitar a general
    tune up. Not only did you tune it up, but you even fixed a couple big gashes in the body! It's played
    like a dream ever since. You went above and beyond the call of duty. THANK YOU for excellent
    work. I will be sure to tell my fellow guitarists about your incredible craftsmanship, hard work and
    honesty. "  - Dan A

  • "Having a great Guitar Tech is like Finding a great Doctor...When you find one,You look no Further...
    I have found this in Morgan's work...I will go no place else,. . .Besides, my guitars would never
    forgive me!!  They are more Human than I am"  -Pat S

  • "I brought Morgan a task that had left others -- literally -- bloody. He took excellent care of my guitar
    and did what I wanted and more. It came back to me better than I had expected and probably
    better than I deserved. On top of it all, he was responsive and communicative. I will always trust
    Morgan with my guitars." - Brad R, The West End

  • "Morgan - thanks for the work on my guitar.  It sounds fantastic and the coil tap works as
    advertised.  The setup is wonderful, and the pickups are behaving perfectly." - Paul H, The
    Daybreak Line

  • "Morgan Henry makes sure that you walk out with an enhanced guitar that sounds better than it did
    before and most likely better than it ever has.  Even if you are only taking it in for a minor part or
    service, Morgan takes the extra step to address the overall performance and setup of your guitar.
    His thorough inspection, fast service and reasonable pricing make him the go-to guy for guitar
    repairs." - Jeff S.

  • "just wanted to say thanks again for your work on my old Harmony Rocket.  I appreciate the quick
    completion of the work and your taking the time to discuss stringing and tuning with a new player."
    - Jim R.

  • "I just want to say that you're the MAN.  This the best my Ernie Ball has ever played.  Needless to
    say I will be bringing all of my guitars to you for work and I will be going back to 11's.  Be looking
    for me in the next week or so with another one.  Thank you so much."  Thomas T.

  • "Morgan offers way more than an incredibly high-quality service;  he keeps the customer very
    much involved in the entire process and suggests solutions to problems you don't even realize
    exist until he points them out.  When I first dropped off my guitar, I wanted to address a few
    aesthetic issues and told him I wanted to spend a certain amount of $ on the repair.  Morgan went
    above and beyond the time he was supposed to spend on the repair and didn't charge me the
    difference even though the bill should have been over twice what it was.  His pride in his work is
    more than impressive and I would recommend him to anyone looking for an honest man who will
    not only spend the time telling you as much or as little as you want to know about the possibilities
    of the magic of his workshop, but also deliver a fantastic service in a quick, flexible manner."  -
    Robert S.

  • "I'd like to say thank you for taking the time out to set up my Warwick Streamer Stage I Five String.  
    When I brought it to you, the intonation was out of sync, the frets needed cleaning, strings needed
    changing, action needed to be altered and corrected.  I must say I was extremely satisfied with the
    results.  You are truly a man of many talents when it comes to repairing guitars and basses.  And
    the price for all of this...you can't be beat!  Thank you again for all the work you did.  I'll definitely be
    keeping your number when I need to have my guitars set up and/or repaired.  Amazing job!"  
    - Wes V.

  • "Morgan, thank you for the great work on my telecaster.  You did a terrific job with the action and
    intonation and I couldn’t be happier with my new pick-ups.  The stock pick-ups buzzed so much I
    usually went to another guitar to play.  With the new Samarium Cobalt Noiseless I can hardly put it
    down.  The pick-ups are perfectly quiet and they perform better than the stock ones.  I will look no
    further for my future guitar tech needs and will not hesitate to use you again.  Thanks"
    -Joseph H.

  • "Morgan--    Thanks for doing that emergency setup on my Tele a couple of weeks ago. I was
    impressed by your friendly manner, your efficiency, and your willingness to answer all my
    questions. And the guitar played great at my gig that weekend! Best wishes."  
    -Ira Gitlin, Alexandria, VA

  • "I always knew my Gibson 335 semi-hollowbody was a good guitar but it needed some repairs to
    keep it from falling out of tune and make it more versatile with capo play.  Morgan worked on the
    guitar and when I got it back it was like a different instrument.  I went from playing it only when I
    had to, to playing it in every song possible."
    - Justin F.

  • "After 40 years of collecting instruments and playing bass I needed a good local tech to work on
    some of my high-end basses. Morgan was referred to me by David King Basses out of Portland,
    Oregon to do some fret work on a recently acquired King bass. The work was a little tricky with no
    room for error. He did an excellent job and has and will be working on the rest of my collection. He
    is a true Renaissance man and good value as well. Thanks Morgan!”
    - Terry A.

  • "I wasn't expecting much improvement in my strat's playability when I brought it to you, but you
    blew me away.  My strat feels like a new guitar.  You discovered and fixed something that a
    number of others had missed on previous setups.  I attribute it to your meticulous measurements
    and commitment to excellence.  It's playing better than it ever has.  Gosh, to think I put up with a
    badly setup guitar for the past 6 years!  Thanks so much.   I am loving how well it's playing"
    - Hamid S.

  • "We used Morgan to set up our guitars before we did our first studio recording and it was a great
    move. Morgan really went the extra mile and the guitars sounded better than I had thought
    possible.  I still call him to this day when I have a technical question on my equipment and would
    recommend him to anybody needing work done on their instrument."  
    - Eric Bayles - lead guitar/Tieweb

  • "I recently found a vintage Silvertone guitar online-- the very same model I owned and played in
    garage bands in my teens. They're quite rare; this instrument is 42 years old! I wanted to be sure it
    was in absolutely optimum shape. The vibe I got from Morgan as I described my concerns to him
    made me feel instantly comfortable. 30 years of musicianship and technical acumen from a player
    and craftsman who'll treat your instrument like one of his own? That's what I want, exactly! Morgan
    gave it a thorough once-over, set it up, cleaned and re-strung it, made a couple of nearly invisible
    modifications (adding a set of Strap-Loks, too) and I had the guitar of my youth once more!  He
    assured me that I owned a really cool piece of history, and seemed nearly as awed and excited by
    the guitar as I was. I am completely delighted with his work, his range of knowledge, and his
    obvious enthusiasm for what he does, and I recommend him to you unreservedly. He's getting all
    *my* future business!"  
    --Jef Hyde

  • "I love my GMPElite guitar  mostly because of the action (the company is sadly out of business
    now.) The sound is great, but it is a typical dual humbucker sound - nice and fat, sweet. I've been
    lusting after a Strat or Tele for a change of pace - the single coil pick up sound. Morgan suggested
    coil splitting the humbuckers and using push-pull pots to control both pickups in either
    humbucker or single coil mode. Bottom line was selectable single coil sound without changing
    the appearance, no major surgery, and modest cost. I am happy. The guitar was done on time
    and works great!"
    - D. Miller

  • "Thanks for the excellent work on my basses!  They're both DREAMY now, the upright actually
    plays better now than when I bought it!!  You got them done quickly and at a great price...I will
    highly recommend your services!!"
    - Ivan P., illuminati

  • "Morgan, your handy work with the nut on my Warmoth neck is absolutely professional.  My Line 6
    Variax never sounded better.  Thanks for the quick turn!  It's working out great!"

  • "I would recommend taking your axe to this guitar doctor, as he will make it feel better than it ever
    did... I know from personal experience."

  • "...The pickups came back, [Morgan] installed them, set the action and intonation, and the Bass
    turned into a "Monster" -killer sound and tone, the presence, resonance and intonation are
    awesome. I took the Bass overseas to Thailand.  As I said it's a good looking Bass - I get a lot of
    compliments - but when I strap it on and they hear it, they're totally devastated.  Thanks [Morgan]
    SMH, and a Special Thanks to NORDSTRAND."  - Rowe Oliver
