What Musicians Say About JTal Guitars


"Over 50 five-star reviews from working musicians"

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Caleb M. - Purchaser of 1038 / "Butter and a Double Scotch"

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Caleb M. - Purchaser of 1038 / "Butter and a Double Scotch"

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Caleb M. - Purchaser of 1038 / "Butter and a Double Scotch"

I am genuinely impressed by the quality of the instrument I received. I've got plenty of guitars and even another tele in my collection but my JTal Guitar definitely stands a cut above. From the quality of the fit and finish, to the expert setup, this guitar plays flawlessly and does everything I ask of it with ease. If you're thinking about buying a high end "F Style" guitar, skip that and check these guitars out.

John brought my vision to life with my custom “Super Saturday” style guitar that he built. John does an incredible job of communicating, and provides valuable insight and guidance during the build process. The customer service with JTAL is second to none. The quality of the instrument makes it feel like you’re playing a Custom Shop, it really is that good. I could not have asked for a better overall buying experience, and will be keeping an eye open for future JTAL projects. Thanks again!

What an incredible guitar! This has to be among the best necks I’ve ever experienced. Incredible playability, and it sounds amazing as well. Also, love the beautiful paint job — super unique and eye catching. Lastly, incredible communication and fantastic customer service. This is a great up-and-coming brand, and can’t recommend highly enough!

Great communication, quick shipping, amazing product and he stands behind it. Definitely pick one of these bad boys up before everyone knows about them and they get more expensive ;)

I bought an existing Tuesday-Style guitar from John in June, 2022 and it is already one of my favorites. His work quality is flawless. Importantly, John is thorough, patient, and extremely detail oriented, which is crucial in an Internet transaction. He also stands behind his work without hesitation. At this point, I trust him enough that I'm considering having him design and build a custom guitar for me. High praise indeed for someone I've never even met in person. Dave H.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Bernard L. - Purchaser of 1036 “Burnt Tangerine”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Joel L. - Purchaser of 1017 ""Show Off Spectacle In The Studio"

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Joel L. - Purchaser of 1017 ""Show Off Spectacle In The Studio"

John was kind enough to sell me his one-of-a-kind Burnt Tangerine. Having spent quite some time with it now, the feel of the neck is unparalleled. John included some really fun pickup wiring mods that reminds me of how I felt as a kid grabbing different crayons out of a box to make drawings. Having five modes instead of a traditional three is amazing, and each of them are so musical from my perspective. I have put the BT through its paces on some twangy rock n roll a la the Rolling Stones, all the way up to Tom Morello-inspired tele drop D riffs. This thing just rips. Not to mention it is easily one of the most unique looking instruments ever made. I am very much inspired by the Burnt Tangerine every time I pick it up. Not to mention, John is one of the most personable people I've ever bought something from. You can't go wrong!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fletcher - Purchaser of 1040 "Gritty and Glamorous"

My guitar was delivered just as I ordered and on time. John takes pride in building a great playing guitar. I had a slight intonation adjustment after several months due to climate fluctuations that he fixed with no problem. In my opinion , it ranks with the Fender custom shop guitars I have played. I have no hesitation in recommending JTal Guitars.

John is the best. He goes above and beyond expectations as far as customer service goes. Great guitars and is an absolute pleasure to have dealt with John through the entire process.

Do not hesitate to buy from JTal Guitars. JT’s customer service is unmatched. He really is passionate about his guitars AND how you enjoy his instruments. His communication is also amazing along with his knowledge of guitars. When I saw JT’s piece of art in my hands for the first time and when I played that guitar, it simply blew me away on so many levels. I will be a long time and proud supporter and buyer of JTal Guitars.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Jonathan - Purchaser of 0002 “Sad Sonic Sky”

It plays like a dream, and sounds fantastic.  I have owned over a dozen guitars, and the tele from JTal is by far the best feeling, easiest to play one of the lot.  I am so glad I was able to snag it before it sold out, and I will definitely be buying from JTal again!

Amazing guitar. Exquisite attention to detail. Plays like a dream. This has instantly relegated all of my other guitars, including my FCS and Nash, to backup status. Thanks JT! Your customer service is top notch. Highly recommend these guitars.

John is a true professional. He's clearly a master craftsman; that much is obvious. What sets him apart is his devotion to customer service. I studied this guitar on Reverb for nearly 4 months before buying it. John answered all of my inquiries politely and in careful detail, which sealed my purchase decision. The guitar arrived in very secure packaging and is outstanding in every regard. This is my first guitar from John; I'm hoping there will be more in the future.

Love my new Stratocaster from JTal guitars. I have 6 strats and this is my favorite. The finish is unique, gorgeous and vintage. Definitely will buy again when I'm looking for either a strat or tele. Thanks again JTal.

A true honor and pleasure to work with someone so passionate about their craft. The guitar arrived in a very timely manner and was just as described if not better. One could see the love and time put into the guitar and the proof is undeniable. I would recommend JTal Guitars to anyone serious about a quality instrument.

It sounded close to playing an acoustic guitar, it was that resonant...  It has an amazing range of tones. I love the feel of the neck and the marriage of those Lollar pickups to your guitar build has a certain mojo to it. In sum, I love it, and you have my endorsement.

I'm a professional musician and I have always bought my stuff off the rack. I will never do that again. I purchased a custom tele from JTal Guitars this summer and it has been the best gear purchase I have ever made. This thing plays like a dream, J set it up just like I like it, and it's very easy on the eyes as well. I will definitely have him build me something in the near future. My sincerest thanks J, from a real guitar nerd, this geetar is amazing.
