“ I love Glory Guitars! Jim Does brilliant work! Superb tone and craftsmanship. I was fortunate enought to play several (Glory Guitars builds) at a recent gig. I couldn't decide which one I liked best...they were all so good! ”

“ I am such a fan of what Jim is doing with Glory Guitars! Acute attention to detail in every way in the craftsmanship of what he’s making. His care and support of musicians is strongly evidenced in the guitar set up I received. Without a doubt the best my guitar has ever felt or played. Period. Glory Guitars is gold. ”

“ I couldn’t recommend anyone more than I do Jim with Glory Guitars. I have had my basses set-up by tons of different people over the years but Jim's quality of work, attention to detail and amazing customer service is unbeatable. You can tell he cares about every instrument that he works on, as well as caring about the owners and their ministry. I am so thankful for Jim and Glory Guitars. The work is second to none. From a recent Instagram post: "I absolutely love what I do! I am passionate about music and telling people all around the world about Jesus. I also love getting to partner with awesome companies who support what I do. @gloryguitars is one of those companies. This Cornerstone Bass just traveled with me to 9 different countries, through the climate changes, the airplanes and getting knocked around, it still looks and plays amazing. Feeling very blessed right now. ”

“ God is using Jim in such mighty ways through his new venture, Glory Guitars! Jim has done masterful work on my Gibson Hummingbird, which I use weekly in leading worship. Jim's knowledge of guitars, the luthier craft, and playing week in and week out really helps him have the upper hand when setting up all of my guitars. A few years ago I was on the road with my band, Zealand Worship, and had the misfortune of my ES-335 taking a spill and cracking the headstock, to which Jim quickly repaired in just a week's time to have ready for the next show. The 335 plays better than ever! I've been playin one of Jim's Voice of Thunder guitars. I LOVE it, and am using it exclusively on the Newsboys United tour with Zealand Worship and in the studio with great results! I love this guitar so much, I recently bought a Glory Guitars Shepherd TL-ST. It absolutely ROCKS! Jim is most definitely the man for the job and his heart for the Lord and those who serve him make him a no-brainer for your next set-up, repair, or custom build! ”

“ Went to my office to play this @gloryguitars Voice of Thunder for a bit. Turned into an hour and a half! Got stuck on this simple vibe right here so I wanted to share. Loving this guitar a ton already. Feels like the perfect mix of vintage and modern in all the right ways! You make a fine instrument Jim!! ”

“ I am AMAZED! Friends, if you need any guitar work (major or minor) check out Jim Detloff at Glory Guitars. I am a perfectionist when it comes to finding a Luthier. I have tried W*****'s, a bunch of private guys and yes, even H*******'s. NONE have pleased me. Then, I met Jim, and he is incredible! His work is impeccable and he's a perfectionist, like me. I am 33 years old, and have been playing guitar for 20 years. I have finally found the guy I trust with all my stuff. He makes your guitar feel like it did the day you bought it. Seriously, there is no one better! ”

“ Jim is not only the best at what he does, he also is one of the easiest guys to work with. He brought my old "number1" back to life and was super transparent about what was needed and what the best options were and was incredibly patient during that process. Now, I never want to put that guitar down, it plays better than ever! I would recommend Jim 100 times over to anyone looking for a great luthier / builder. ”

“ Jim's work is amazing! I had an acoustic guitar electronics issue that two other guitar techs couldn't figure out. They each quoted me $500+ to just replace everything. After only a few minutes Jim had the issue diagnosed, and then repaired it... for MUCH less than $500 (less than $80 actually!) I'm currently on one of his monthly service plans at the church that I work for and am excited to have my guitars playing smoothly all the time... and happy to have the opportunity to bless volunteer musicians with quality guitar work. ”

“ Jim does an absolutely PERFECT job. I gave him my beat up Partscaster to set up and in less than a week he brought it back to me...all I could say was WOW. He went above and beyond...and now that beat up old Partscaster, that couldn't even stay in tune, is one of my go-to guitars that plays like a million bucks! If you're looking for the best guitar set up in town, have Jim do it. ”

“ Just got my Heritage H-575 back after Jim had finished a complete re-fret of the instrument. The guitar has NEVER played so well or had such good intonation. Jim's work is top-notch and if I ever need additional work done on my guitars then I won't hesitate to hand the "kids" over to him. Well done, Jim. Many thanks! ”

“ Excited to have this 60s RI Strat playing and feeling like a million bucks thanks to Jim at Glory Guitars. Check out his work, it's meticulous and beautiful! ”
