About Crompton Guitars

Crompton Guitars Description
If you are looking for a set up, or if you are looking for a structural repair it is always better to bring the instrument to someone who understands their construction and someone who will give each job the same attention to detail.
Although we always have some instruments under construction, we treat set ups and repairs with equal importance and divide time equally amongst them. Some jobs inevitably take longer than others and some are long term projects but we always aim to stick to agreed timetables. We can usually turn setups and minor repairs around within the week but this can vary depending on our workload.

7 years ago today I finished this bass for a client in London
Just finished fitting a tremolo bridge into a Fender Squire Telecaster, which entailed three different routings. All done and working fine. Another happy customer.
Repairing a broken headstock on a much loved guitar
Currently re fretting a Gibson SG
Removing a broken bridge, making and glueing on a new one.
This lovely old early 1900's banjo in need of a new skin. I replaced to with vellum. It now sounds beautiful again.
Finally got all of the awful grey paint off the 60's Gibson ready for spraying. Next job is to replace the binding and refret.
I have been asked by a client to restore this 1960s Gibson SG to its former glory. He gave it to a so called expert some years ago and got it back in this state! I'll post some pictures of its journey. It will take a while as I will be doing it alongside my usual repairs and setups.
Removing a broken bridge from a hand built guitar on behalf of a customer, filling the existing bridge pin holes then making and fitting a new bridge.
Ebony scratch plate made for a client who wanted a slightly smaller plate making
Happy Christmas to all my customers and all future customers.

I received this Fender Tele from a guy who wanted it to be restored to it's former glory. It had been badly sprayed green and had gold fittings.
