Hirer Feedback

Don't take my word for it.  This is what matters most!


"Absolutely amazing service. Received guitar on time and sparkling clean. Expert advice given as well."

Thanks to film director Tatenda Jamera for giving our sprightly 86-year-old National Style O Resonator a starring role in a video shoot for artist Tamaraebi.

"Iain is a pleasure to talk to; he is charming, polite and very knowledgeable regarding Guitars and Bass Guitars. I rented a well maintained Precision Bass, which came in a hard case with relevant accessories; I believe this was extremely great value for money. Playing the Precision Bass it was also clear to me that it had been well serviced and looked after. With Iain’s professionalism, value and great service I have no doubt that I will be a returning customer!"

14 tracks recorded in one day by rock bassist Rich Vanderpuije, armed with our vintage 1972 Fender Precision Bass. Mammoth session!

"Iain was terrific - picked up and not only was the guitar beautiful with not a scratch on it, but he also provided a brand new strap, picks and other bits to help us along. Honestly couldn't recommend highly enough, such a lovely person and will definitely be renting from him again."

Another video session for our most popular solidbody, the classic 1992 Fender Telecaster in perfectly photogenic metallic blue. Watch out for the video from Adam, aka DYVR!

"We hired the 1962 Fender Duo-Sonic and another guitar for part of our filming for a new BBC 2 series. Iain was so helpful and very accommodating with our plans as it was very last minute. The guitar was fantastic and in brilliant condition. Would highly recommend using Gods Own Guitars and if I ever needed to hire this sort of thing again, this company would be my first port of call."

Can't wait for the broadcast! Thanks to Rebecca and the team at Rumpus Media for hiring our 1962 Fender Duo-Sonic for this series!

"We hired the 2006 Fender Stratocaster and another guitar for part of our filming for a new BBC 2 series. Iain was really helpful and accommodating with our plans as it was very last minute. It was packed up really well and put on a direct courier for us with no issues at all and returned to him on the same day into the evening which was very helpful for our filming. I would high recommend using Iain and Gods Own Guitars and I would use them again!"

"Iain has that rare quality of being extremely professional and wonderfully personable. His passion for beautiful guitars is infectious and his rates are fantastic! I had one of the best days of my recording career yesterday, sat in my studio playing his Gibson J200. A childhood dream come true. Legend!"

"Perfect birthday surprise for my husband, who wanted to try out playing electric guitar! Iain made the process so easy and was super kind and helpful throughout, giving me a lot of really useful advice on what would be the best fit. The guitar was in perfect condition and Iain explained everything I needed to know in terms of set up etc. Thank you Iain! :)."
