5/5
I've known Rob for a long time and was aware of how good his work was. I had spent a year struggling with avoiding playing my guitar after a difficult situation where I felt rejected and that being followed by the death of my father. This had started way back in 2020 when moving home ended me playing in a band I'd been in and the pandemic had affected my mental health as well.
It was causing a lot of frustration for me as I wanted to play but felt that anything I did would be worthless so didn't want to try. It got increasingly difficult to deal with internally and I reached out to Rob, knowing his interest and experience in music and performing, and in just one session he switched things around for me and I've been playing a few times a week and finding my enjoyment for it again. I even allowed myself to buy a guitar I'd been wanting but telling myself I can't have as I wasn't good enough and wasn't playing enough to justify.
Thanks Rob, you've helped restore something that was of immense value to my life.
