You are in safe hands

It's not the first time I've used James and won't be the last. Pleasant welcoming and courteous. Will investigate and advise. Highly professional- most recently a new loom and other wiring issues for an otherwise original 1985 Telecaster.
Thanks again buddy.

The Zen of Excellence.

When you buy from James you get a fantastic service: very quick turn around, great customer service and a truly brilliant product. I purchased a new wiring harness which has turned a cheap, average sounding guitar into something that is sonically rich and difficult to put down. Excellent!

Wiring Harness

I recently purchased a Pre-Wired Guitar Wiring Harness | '54 to '78 Spec Vintage Stratocaster Kit from James, and I couldn't be happier! The communication was absolutely flawless.
James was incredibly kind, warm, and helpful throughout the entire process. He guided me in choosing the perfect kit for my needs, answering every question quickly and in great detail.

The package arrived professionally packed, and the shipping was fast. The harness itself is a true piece of art, built with AAA+ quality materials. It’s hands down the best wiring harness in the world—a perfect blend of craftsmanship, quality, and attention to detail.

I would gladly buy from James again. Highly recommended!

Left handed guitar harness

I’ve used James for all my guitar harnesses in the past 3 or so years and every one of them has been the very best. He only uses quality parts and along with his outstanding workmanship the final product is always outstanding. A good number of the harnesses I’ve ordered have been far from standard !! Yet James has always gone the extra mile to accommodate my quirky whims lol !!
You couldn’t find a more helpful, professional and just really nice guy to deal with … He may not want me but he will continue to be my No 1 supplier, great company !! 😁👍👏👏👏
