Welcome
Sounds is a guitar workshop hidden away in Lismore, Co Waterford. Musicians come here from all over Ireland for guitar repairs and custom setups. Lots of guitarists have been asking for custom guitars recently, so now there are some beautiful new guitars being designed right here...
You're very welcome to Sounds. Whether you fancy a full guitar refret, a replacement pickup or just some advice on setting up your own guitar, give us a call. We're here to help. We deal with acoustic guitars, electric guitars and most stringed instruments in need of repair, or we could build you the guitar of your dreams.
We have a lot of experience with vintage instruments, and we love them. All sorts of things come through the workshop: Les Pauls; Strats; Telecasters; mandolins; fiddles; all sorts of instruments by Martin, Taylor, Ibanez, Bill Collings, George Lowden, Jackson, Paul Reed Smith and much more. Recently we had an original Hofner "Beatle" Bass and a beautiful old Gibson J50 for neck resets (see photos).
If you want your very own custom guitar, give us a call and we can design something together, and you can get the guitar of your dreams.
If you're ever passing, drop in for a chat and see what's going on. There's always something happening here, usually with some very beautiful musical instruments.
