East-West Guitars

East-West Guitars Musical instrument and amplifier repair service. Equipment sales, Electronic parts and guitar accessories.

East-West Guitars was formed as a need to have a retail outlet alongside my guitar repair business and in April 2015 I combined both into one company name. I've been repairing guitars since I was teenager but have been in business as 'The Axeman' since 2003. My aim is to provide the music community in Ireland with a high quality repair service for music instruments and amplification equipment alon

g with high quality guitar and amplifier parts, components that I would personally recommend having evaluated them myself. In particular I offer premium components to upgrade your existing controls to unleash tones that are locked inside your guitar by unsatisfactory components that are usually stock with a lot of Far Eastern guitars. I also strive to supply the Irish market with parts which sometimes prove difficult to source locally. We are an authorised dealer in Ireland for Emerson Custom USA, Babicz FCH, Quilter Labs, Mojotone, Allparts USA and Celestion UK. If you are unsure about installing any of our wiring kits or other electronic components we have for sale we can wire your guitar up for you if you would like to inquire about installation prices. If there's guitar or amplifier parts that you're finding difficult to source maybe we can help you out.

Wolfshead inlay installation on an ESP EX400B for Martyn from Whiplash - Metallica Tribute Band.
One of the most challenging jobs I've had so far since starting this business.

An 'Evil Twin' Amp aka Pro Tube in for what should have been relatively minor repairs which turned into a mountain due to the terrible design of this thing by Fender. I hope I never see one of these again too soon, but I've future proofed this one for easier disassembly, if it ever comes back to give me nightmares... 😄

1981 Musicman RD100 in for a service. Still had the original Mallory power capacitors but they're shot so some new TAD Gold Caps installed. Lot of heat damage around the zener diodes and ceramic resistors for the power supply for the footswitch. Reminds me of the same issues the Hot Rod Deluxe has..
Underneath that there was a burnt out trace under one of those resistors. I hard wired to the next terminal and buttressed the other traces with higher temperature rated solder.
Has the original Svetlana tubes and they are perfectly matched. Old stuff was built to last..
