From playing his songs across Rock On!! and ZNMD back in school, to having the legendary @ehsaan at my guitar workshop!! I’m honoured to have had the opportunity to diagnose and set up Ehsaan Noorani’s @fendercustomshop Stratocaster. Working on the instrument of a musician whose albums and creative work have shaped so much of our musical memory is a milestone I will always cherish. Ehsaan dropped by post-setup, played the guitar, and was incredibly gracious and kind throughout. Thank you so much, @ehsaan and @tonyjdas for the trust in my work and capabilities. 🙏 #guitartech #ehsaan #shankarehsaanloy #instamusic #bollywoodsongs

Electrolytic Rust Removal has always been my #1 go to, for getting oxides and grime off guitar bridges which are made of varying metals, being ideal for this process. #guitartech #electricguitar #rust #likenew #instagood #lespaul #clean #musician #trending #guitar #behindthescenes

The amp wall just grew!! 🎸⚡️ Excited to welcome a @fender Hot Rod DeVille IV 212 to the workshop. A legendary stage workhorse known for huge clean headroom, loud volume and pedal friendly tone. Clients can now test their instruments after servicing through a range of amps: • Fender Hot Rod DeVille – American mid-scooped cleans • Marshall JCM800 – classic British crunch • Blackstar HT– modern saturated tube tones From low-watt studio tones to full stage punch — the idea was simple: Give players a real-world reference when evaluating setup, electronics, and playability. #newgear #fender #instamusic #tubeamp #guitartech

@fender American Ultra Stratocaster came in for a full refresh — deep cleaning, action adjustment, and intonation dial-in. Small details, careful measurements, and a setup tailored to the player make all the difference. Ready to head back out and sing again!! #guitartech #fenderstratocaster #electricguitars #instamusic #guitarsofinstagram

Dire Straits Legacy!! Assisting the legendary guitarist, @phil_palmer_official , whose career spans collaborations with Eric Clapton, Mark Knopfler, Dire Straits, Tina Turner, George Michael, and countless others, was a truly special experience. Phil brought an incredible depth of musicality to the stage — matched equally by his humility and kindness. Thank you so much @al_peluso_official for being a gem of a person!! From soundcheck to showtime, your modesty and rock n’ roll spirit made this show an absolute pleasure to work on! Grateful for the trust placed in me, the learning that came with it, and for an unforgettable evening of music. #guitartech #direstraits #philpalmer #rockconcert #livemusic

Had this beautiful @fender PJ bass guitar drop in for some sprucing up… Fender’s Japanese line of products tend to exceed the American and Mexican standard series, in terms of build quality and components. #fender #guitartech #jazzbass

An incredible experience being part of that wall of sound on stage 🎸🔊 Huge thanks to @rohit_kryptos for bringing me on board and trusting me with the band’s rig. Your support and encouragement have shaped so much of what I do - truly grateful.

Had the opportunity to work on this amazing cherry red @epiphone dot, belonging to @boobyk !! The F16s played a pivotal role to my journey with indie bands, from my first experience at their gig as a kid. Getting to work one of their gigging instruments was a great privilege indeed… thank you so much Abhinav.
