Meet Jon, Sims Music's New Guitar Tech

Jon Warf is 26 years old and was born and raised in Lexington, South Carolina. He has been playing guitar since he was 9 years old and has been working on guitars professionally for the past 6 years. He apprenticed and graduated from Custom Vibrations School of Lutherie. So for the past 16 years of his life, Jon has dedicated himself and invested himself in the culture of guitar.

Jon loves working on electric guitars and electric basses. While some tech's shy away from it, Jon loves a challenge. He loves fiddling with and fixing/replacing wiring and other internal components to get the overall best playing and sounding guitar. Jon had this to say about being a guitar tech:

"I strive for efficiency and consistency. I want to continue Sims Music's environment of quick and friendly service. I want people to know: before I'm a tech, I'm a musician. I don't rest until your instrument is playing how I would want it to play or sound like I would want it to sound. No challenge is too big or small. I promise to put my entire effort and expertise into every single guitar."
