John Bertsche
John Bertsche has been playing guitar for almost 40 years. He is an extremely accomplished musician, writer, and producer with several gold and platinum album credits to his name. John’s musical talents have enhanced the work of such well-known artists as Maura Fogarty (“Color of My Heart”), M2M (“Shades of Purple”), Aaron Carter (“Aaron’s Party”), Hanson, Catherine Davies, Babelfish, Bari Koral, and Leslie Mills, among others.

At the same time, his innate musical curiosity about the inner workings of guitars prompted him to learn the fine art of repairing them. Over the past 30 years, he has mastered everything from amazingly playable setups to neck resets. His skill at every aspect of guitar repair, whether he’s doing fantastic fret jobs or repairing broken headstocks, has earned him a well-deserved reputation among major recording artists--as well as those who just wish they were. Some of his appreciative customers include Bruce Kulick of Kiss, Johnny Gale, Russ Titleman (producer of many Eric Clapton recordings), Dicky Betts, Lee Roy Parnell, Greg Rzab, Craig Chaquico, members of the Charlie Daniels Band, and David Sanchez.

Best of all, he is a very good listener. John has the ability to interpret players’ complaints in order to pinpoint and solve their problems. No one but John is ever entrusted with handling the very delicate setups on We Buy Guitars’ own vintage instruments.
