Jimmy the owner. Best damn guitar maker and repairman in the US. I am not kidding.
A+ Will not consider any other luthier
Dont go to guitar center
Top quality from a master craftsman. Most highly recommended!
What a great experience and professional job. James is a very detailed Luthier.
Im glad I found out about this hidden gem! Jim is very talented and does an awesome job on guitar repairs. My husband and I take our guitars to him for maintenance. Most of the time he is able to fix things right on the spot. Hes knowledgeable with a warm personality and his prices are very reasonable!! Check him out!
We just had a great experience with Alexi Strings. James did a wonderful job tuning our daughters violin and was a pleasure to work with. I would recommend him to work on your violin or guitar and it was super cool to see him building guitars too! Thanks again Alexi Strings. 👍👍
I completely recommend! I went in asking if it was worth repairing the guitar my husband brought home. The owner was AWESOME and told me what it would take, and agreed that it would probably be cheaper to buy a new one. He didnt try and sell me one.. he was just being completely honest.. I appreciated that more than anything!! I highly recommend!
I highly recommend this place! I brought in an improperly stored guitar that hadnt been played in 8 years, and Jimmy had it looking and playing better than it did when it was brand new when I got back from him!
I first visited James because I inherited an old violin with busted strings and missing the bow. He was able to tell me all about it - era of manufacture, country of manufacture, and also informed me it was not suitable to play in the current state. This was no problem for me since I do not play violin and only wanted to display it. He hooked me up with a wall hanging display, replacement used strings and an an inexpensive bow I could use with the display.I came back to James with an old guitar that had excessive string action. He was able to replace and modify the saddle, set up the guitar, and give it a quick cleaning. No doubt it looks and plays better than it did in the 80s. His passion and knowledge for stringed instruments is incredible, prices are very reasonable, and loves to talk about stringed instrument repair / manufacture and also violin / mandolin / guitar music. Highly recommended!
Im a musician and Ive played my share of custom high end guitars. Every now and then you find that gem youve been searching for. The problem I now face is which gem to pick because every Alexeas Guitar Ive played Ive loved! From the Craftsmanship and design, to the unbelievably richness in tone and sustain that lasts for what seems like days, you will fall in love with playing all over again. James designs and builds each guitar with its owner in mind and his passion and love for his product speaks for itself. I recommend Alexeas Guitars to anyone and everyone wanting a quality guitar!
James was very helpful when I needed my daughters violin restrung.
Awesome guy and very helpful
