I have just had 2 uke-banjos refurbished by Alan Yates and have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone requiring his services.

The work has been done with love and to his very high standard. Alyson runs their website so have a look at it: www.alanyatesmusic.co.uk.

Highly recommended.

Alan did a fantastic job restoring my guitar. His expert knowledge and passion for what he does is shown in his work.

I was really pleased with the end result and the care and professionalism shown. Would 100% recommend!

I could not for the life of me get my new guitar to sound any good. As a last ditch of attempt before considering selling it on, I took it to Alan.

He changed a few bits on it and professionally set the guitar up. I couldn't believe the difference. Needless to say, I didn't sell it.

In fact I never put it down and now I take it to Alan once some times twice a year just to have it maintained.

Wow, wow, wow!!! What amazing service from Alan and Alyson!! My ukulele banjo went in for a refurb and a "tweek" and Alan did a fantastic job...

I've fallen in love with it all over again!! Not only do they do repairs and refurbs, but they stock pretty much anything ukulele related.

Thank you guys, it's a 20 out of 10 from me!

I initially went to Alan for ukulele lessons which is how I discovered he did instrument maintenance.

He looks after all my instruments and repairs them when needed. His wife Alyson even relined my case and did a few jobs on my saxophone!

Brilliant couple, brilliant work - wouldn't go anywhere else!


Alan completely refurbished and restored a Ukulele Banjo. When I saw it for the 1st time when it was finished my initial reaction was WOW.

I was very moved and could not believe the fantastic job and transformation he had done.
