About Nick

"From vintage restorations to custom builds, my goal is simple: absolute reliability and world-class, uncompromised tone."
Ever since I started working at a local music store at the age of 16, I quickly realized a passion for the electric guitar, tube amps, and effects.
The Early Days
My journey started by rewiring electric guitars and replacing pickups, and this gradually progressed to doing more advanced modifications. As a guitarist myself, I understood the importance of selecting the right components for the job at hand.
The Optimization
I began to experiment with my own gear, making changes and listening to the effect they had on the tone. A lot of my guitarist friends heard the sounds I was getting and asked me to do the same to their setups. MODDJOBBS was born.
Today, I have expanded and focused my repair and optimization services to both vintage and modern tube amplifiers. I keep a full compliment of both current and vintage test equipment on the bench in order to service your equipment in the most thorough and thoughtful way possible.
Faith & Excellence
Most importantly, I am a follower of Jesus Christ, and an ordained Pastor of Worship. It's my desire to use the musical and engineering gifts and talents that God has given me to represent both His passion and excellence.
