The Wild Guitars shop first opened it’s doors back in 1996, but prior to that owner Dave Wild was resident in Muswell Hill and was one of London’s busiest and best known guitar and amp repair and restoration specialists. Dave then started to design and build his own instruments, prompting another move in 2003 to larger premises. Wild Guitars now offer some of the best repair and restoration services you will find as well as a well stocked selection of vintage and rare instruments.
