From the reviews
I have a Marshall amp that over the course of the last 16 months was at not one, not two, but THREE other techs. None of them could figure it out. Rick had the amp back to me fixed within 10 days (for less $$ than everyone else might I add).
I have been going to Rick since the early 90’s and have had nothing but great experiences. He has repaired equipment ( amplifiers, guitars and effects boxes) that other people could not diagnose properly to repair.
I took my Martin acoustic guitar in for service to get the action lowered, straighten the neck, and seal a crack on the back of the neck. The guitar was pretty much unplayable and did not sound too good for whatever reason. Rick brought my guitar back to life!
I've used several techs in and around Philadelphia to setup and repair my basses. Rick Emery is, by far, the best! Frets, neck, neck pocket, nut, and bridge adjusted perfectly. On top of that Rick is a great guy. ...love talking to him about music, guitars, basses keyboards, amps and the musicians who use them.
