Hello and thanks for visiting my website. My name is Will Scott and I'm
a
professional
luthier (guitar repairer/maker). I'm also
a family man, married
with two teenage sons. I'm passionate about guitars
and about getting
the
best
performance and playability I can from them. I've had
a
guitar
in
my
hand since
I
was 14 - and I still like to get out and play gigs.
My Career
After leaving school I studied Musical Instrument Technology
at Leeds
College
of Music. After graduating in
1985 I
took a job with John
Hornby
Skews & Co
in Leeds carrying out
guitar
repairs and quality control checks
in their service department. And it
wasn't long before I was
maintaining
and
building them in
my spare time too.
In 1990 I began teaching guitar
making
part-time at Leeds College of Music
as well as starting my own
business offering repair services freelance to
musicians,
music stores
and students, eventually becoming an authorized
technician
for
Jackson® Guitars.
I
am now a full-time luthier based in the beautiful
county of Pembrokeshire,
West Wales although my customer base extends to Carmarthen, Cardigan and Swansea.
What I Can Do
All types of repair and restoration work as well as regular
maintenance jobs like fret dress and set-ups. I also offer a customising
service: I can build you a new neck to fit an existing body, or vice versa, fit new pick-ups and hardware
with custom wiring options. I pride myself on precision workmanship and attention to detail.
Whatever your guitar needs, I can help. Please call 07790 069109.
