February 6, 2019Mark D. I’ve used Cal’s services tonnes of times and never once had a less than stellar experience. His work is second to none and being able to pick his brains is always a bonus! Just a genuinely great shop run by people who live and breathe music, I recommend to anyone and everyone 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
September 15, 2024 - Steve P. Took my fav p bass in for a setup, it already played well, but for less than the cost of a night out it now plays (and looks) amazing! Thanks to Cal and all the team.
January 19, 2019Darren L.Have had a fair few setups in my time and none come remotely close to this quality. Not only does Cal provide you with an amazing guitar service, irrespective of your guitar model; banter, comfortability (both mentally and physically - there's couches in his shop!) and affordability come hand in hand with an all round stellar service. Thanks a lot, dude - I know I'll be back countless times! I fully recommend anyone who hasn't been yet to get down there for all your guitar needs!

Services & Prices
We’ve all been there – You save and save (and save) then spend £100’s on a brand new guitar you have lusted after for months or even years. You finally get it in your hands and it just feels…’off’. Or, your faithful 6-stringed friend suddenly starts to buzz, fight you or just not sound like it did.
Guitars are almost always not ready to play as well as they should straight out the box and certainly not if they are your old ones that have been tucked away in a cupboard for years.
Let’s change this.
Setups are just about the best thing you can do for your instrument outside of playing it regularly so get in touch and let me show you how I can make this more fun for you.
Restringing your guitar or bass can feel like a laborious task to a lot of players….but I love it.
Prices start from £20 plus cost of strings for a standard 6-string and includes giving your instrument and frets a spa-level clean and polish whilst I’m at it.
I can install pickups, create custom wiring and fit replacement parts to make your guitar an ever more excellent tool for expressing yo’self… Let me know what you fancy and what your budget is and we’ll make it happen.
From snapped headstocks to worn out nuts (ooyah) I can help. I’ll give you a fair idea of time and cost, and keep you updated throughout!
If you have a guitar or bass that you would like to have looked at, just book an appointment below.
We’ll accept the intrument in on your chosen day/time and let you know when the work is complete!

TUITION @ WALL TO WALL MUSIC
JOE MCGILLVERAY GUITAR TUITION
Whether you’ve always wanted to play guitar but don’t know where to start, or if you’ve played for a while and don’t know where to go next, there’s no better way to learn than face to face with a real teacher
For beginners we can go right to the start, how music works, how to hold guitar, understanding chords and scales, all the way through to how to improvise over any song and how real music is made in 2025
For the players we can assess where you are and see if there are holes in your theory or your technique that we can work on patching up.
I believe that the best way to learn is with the music that you love so I aim to tailor lessons to your tastes and work towards your own musical goals. I really do believe you’re never too young or too old to learn an instrument.
Cheers guys,
Joe x
