All I was looking for

I purchased a pre-wired guitar wiring harness from James' Home of Tone to upgrade my PRS Silver Sky SE. The components used are top-of-the-line, and the workmanship and presentation are excellent. The dedication and attention to detail are evident. I'm very satisfied and recommend it to anyone building or looking to upgrade their instrument. All the best!

It was just a small guitar part order but James actually checked my postcode and somehow I had entered it wrong (autofill I guess). He emailed me checking that he had figured out the correct postcode for my address before he posted it. Guitar part fits perfectly and I am grateful for the excellent service

Top stuff!

Had everything I needed in stock a good price. Shipping was swift and well packed. The hand written thank you note was a nice touch. If you're shopping for Tone then James has some... at Home.

Absolute best place in the UK to get...

Absolute best place in the UK to get anything guitar wiring loom related. It's very rare these days to experience such a high level of professional and exquisitely knowledgeable service fine tuned to your specific and personal exacting needs. I needed a new set of pots and a wiring loom for a very rare and beautiful Gibson Custom Wes Montgomery Master Model archtop by James Hutchins and James went way beyond me create for me a tailor made creation of the best quality components you can find anywhere at an extremely reasonable price and rapid time frame. I don't often gush so profusely on such topics but in this case it is well deserved. Thank you James!!
Kind regards,
Chris

I really don't think I've ever come across service and support as good as I got from James. Just "good" service these days is rare enough, this is something else altogether! He went totally above and beyond to help me out when I screwed up due to my own clumsiness. Thanks mate, I'll definitely spend more money at James' Home of Tone when I inevitably need to buy some more stuff to mod/upgrade my guitars.

Can't recommend James more

James is a great bloke and runs an excellent business. When I buy from him I know I'm going to get fantastic service and the best products and I've never been disappointed.

Simply fantastic

I ordered knowing that James was on holiday and so I would need to wait a few extra days. He shipped my order extremely quickly once he was back and even wrote a note thanking me for my patience. I think that tells you all you need to know, he's a lovely guy who really cares about what he does.

Top quality work

Top quality work, quick and careful delivery. The new Jazzmaster loom made more difference than I expected. I have no worries about how it will hold up to live shows.
