Really impressed
Really impressed, James went above and beyond to help. Living in Northern Ireland involved additional effort from James to supply me with the parts I required which was very much appreciated!!
Helpful, quality parts, great prompt communication can thoroughly recommend !!

Great parts and great service!
James Home of Tone is a fantastic business and I can always get the parts I need for my guitar projects, in this case a prewired harness for my Fender 50s Reissue P-Bass. The harness was really well-made with quality components, well-packaged and promptly dispatched, and (alongside new Fralin) pickups, was a great upgrade for my bass.

Great service
Great service! Very Knowledgeable and great attention to detail. I ordered a pre wired solderless harness. I found it really easy to follow the online instructions and fit. It came well packaged in really beautiful little box. A nice touch that I wasn’t expecting. My old guitar now sounds great.

Incredible products, even more incredible customer support!
I've ordered from here before. But I think it's worth noting my most recent experience.
For whatever reason, I somehow got very unlucky and had a faulty switch as part of a full wiring harness. A 1 in a million chance I'm sure. The customer support from James was absolutely fantastic, he walked me through troubleshooting and then after we figured out the problem, sent me 2 entirely separate switch harnesses just to make sure that the problem was solved.
This guy goes above and beyond, my guitar is absolutely incredible now. Jame's Home Of Tone is now my go to for any electrical components I need for my guitars. The stock is fantastic and the customer support is second to none
Highly recommend!

James' Jam is the best
James' knowledge and attention to detail can only be described as "the best jam you'll ever have". I've known James for a long time and he has and always will be my go-to guitar guy

Simply the best
James’ wiring looms are terrific…I’ve built a les Paul and now rejigged a P Bass and the transformation in every aspect of the tone - depth, finesse, range, subtle control - for both the guitar and the bass have been immense. I cannot recommend his designs and build quality highly enough. Plus he is no 1 for friendly advice and consultation pre-purchase.

James is brilliant
James is just brilliant. He’s someone I can absolutely trust with my gear. He does a fantastic setup, has a great range of products, and he’ll just always go the extra mile. Even when he’s super busy and he’s clearly popular for a reason. So yeah, definitely recommend.

A Guitar Modder's Paradise!
James (Home of Tone) was recommended to me by PRS as I was having an issue they couldn't solve. it's some of the best advice I've had in years. When you combine good products, first class service and most importantly invaluable advice, why would you ever go anywhere else. If you're into modding guitars, look no further than Home of Tone.
