 "Jim, . . . the guitars are playing and sounding great since your last service. I'm afraid to take them anywhere else ..." Art Matthews Lead singer, songwriter International recording artists Just Jinger "... Jim has been very helpful in setting up my acoustic guitars so they play their best. His knowledge, patience, and understanding of my needs as a guitarist have been invaluable. Thanks for the great work! ..." John Georgiou Artist Animals At Play and guitarist, Cleve Francis & Friends ". . .When my 1973 Fender Jazz Bass and 1979 Musicman StingRay needed refretting and neck refinishing, I unhesitatingly chose J. Warwick Guitars. Jim took both basses and made them like new for me ... they're more playable and better sounding than ever. Additionally, I use light gauge bass strings (.40 - .95) and Jim set them up with no buzzing at all throughout the neck (no small feat!). If you're a bass player who uses light gauge strings ( or any gauge for that matter), Jim is your man. His attention to detail and care for the customer is unparalleled in my experience. One more thing ... I also brought my '74 Gibson Ripper into Jim's shop for evaluation. It has significant wear and tear, lacquer checking, etc. but is in excellent playing condition. Jim inspected it, and told me to leave it as is. Most repairmen would tell a customer that yes, it needs to be refinished, set up, etc. Not Jim. He's more concerned for the customer than the bottom line. What this means is that he's honest, and will tell the customer what the instrument needs, no more, no less. That, my friends, is called integrity. And you just can't buy that anywhere else. All I can say is if you want the best for your instrument, you need look no further than J. Warwick Guitars..." Alan J. Dover Major, United States Army " ... his superb craftsmanship has brought a repeated smile to my face each and every time I look at my guitar collection. I went to Mr. Warwick with a tall task. I had a 1977 Fender Music-Master bass that was in dreadful condition... a freind working at a body shop at the time assured me that he could refinish the guitar. Needless to say, the guitar was ruined. The guitar had been sitting in my Mom's attic for about 22 years. ... Mr. Warwick assured me that the guitar could be refinished. I trusted his reputation and contracted the work with him. I am happy to say that the bass is like new, sounds good and is an antique worthy of passing down to my duaghters. Mr. Warwick is a fine craftsman and I would recommend him to any customer no matter how high, or low the budget..." Edward G. Dawson Jr. CEO Riverside Entertainment Management www.
