Testimonials: (Job specific references available upon request)
"We
received the first replica Mastertone banjo neck (attached to our arch top TB-75 pot) from First Quality today and Peter Becker
and myself are impressed down to the bottom of our shoes. The color match is extraordinary. Weve had other people do necks
for us but nobody has gotten it as perfectly right as Randy Broyles. That the job was completed in a timely fashion also didnt
escape us (we could tell you tales about having at times waited for over a year for some unnamed builders). We look forward
to working with your company again many times in the future"
Stan Jay, president Mandolin Brothers, Ltd.
"I received my Martin D-41 back yesterday, and it looks brand new! Better than new, not only
because the way it looks, but the way it sounds and plays! I thought a perfect restoration was not possible, but you went
above and beyond to prove that theory wrong. Thank you Randy so very much."

" After I purchased my 1939 National Duolian metalbody resophonic in a paper
bag for $20, I brought the project to Randy for a near impossible restoration. It consisted of a metal body, a neck minus
fingerboard and a coverplate with no handguard.
For the neck, Randy began by inbedding a truss rod, then capped it with a beautiful ivoriod
bound ebony neck. The peghead was redecorated with pearl art deco inlays complete with an engraved pearl National
logo. The toner and finish Randy used made the basswood neck appear as if it were mahogany.
Next he painted the body in a tri-color sunburst complete with a multicolor stencil airbrushed
pair of peaches of his own design! The project was completed with the installation of a Highlander pick up. This is the best sounding
prewar guitar in my resonator collection! As a professional musician, I couldn't have a better tool to ply my craft with!
Since then, Randy exclusively has done all my repair, maintainance and restoration work. To hear this guitar go to my
website and listen to the song 'Peaches'. To view this guitar go to gallery."
Cole Prior Stevens- musician, Louisville KY
My Randy Broyles custom guitar embodies the eyes and heart of a fine artist. With his confident expertise in
sonic properties, Randy created a blissful marriage of form and function!
Randy built a drop dead gorgeous instrument for my collection and I’m praying that the good Lord
will allow my Randy Broyles guitar to accompany me through the Pearly Gates! Thanks Randy, for a totally righteous axe!
