I had a tele re-fretted at Koivisto Guitars and I am delighted by the quality of work and the reasonable price. I Would highly recommend Sami Koivisto.
Excellent service. Held my Les Paul in for some work on it. New Finnish moose bone nut in place of the old one, jack output plate replaced with a chrome one (to save me breaking it again!), frets levelled and polished, wiring fixed and a setup. Couldn't be happier, would definitely recommend.
Got new pickups and tuning keys put on an old guitar I've got. Like having a brand new guitar now. Excellent service an quick. Totally recommend.
Sami was my go-to guy for all my guitar, banjo and resoguitar repairs. His work was always first-class and the prices very reasonable. I also bought a beautiful solid-body electric that he made. He is very missed in Tampere!
Koivisto flamenco blanca has been my number 1 guitar since I got it. It tours the world with me playing concerts together. In the near future I'll order Flamenco negra as well. The quality of the sound, the touch and almost every part of the guitar has been everything I need. This will be a lifetime relationship.
