LECTRICare® Product Testimonials
“We’ve used many contact cleaners in the past, but this has become our new favorite. It works fasts and protects much longer than other cleaners. And the smaller size bottles are perfect for guitar cases, gig bags, or road cases. We keep a bottle handy for every gig!”
“Before our last recording session, I used Sound Synergies LETRICare on the individual channels on the mixer we were utilizing for our signal chain. The LECTRICare worked wonderfully, making the pots & the sliders move like silk, and eliminating the oxidation throughout. GREAT product, outstanding results!”

“Over the 30 years that I’ve been repairing electronic music gear I have tried almost every cleaner out there. Nothing comes close to LECTRICare® for effectiveness. I am a devotee!”

“I recently used LECTRICare on a Martin acoustic that had electronic controls on the side. The owner had sweated so much that the sliders were no longer operating and the switches were crackly and shorting out. I sprayed LECTRICare over the entire control panel and after only a few seconds the sliders were working again. Another application washed everything clean and now the controls are functioning like new!”

“I have been doing Guitar Repair since 1981. I have been using your Sound Synergies LECTRICare product, and I am amazed how well it works. I have used various “TV tuner” spray cleaners over the years, but nothing compares to LECTRICare. My usual application is for cleaning pots in Guitars and Amps when they get dirty/scratchy. I will spray LECTRICare into the pot, and before I begin to turn the shaft, the pot is nice and quiet. It is pretty much instant gratification! I highly recommend this product to anyone in my line of business.”
“For the record, I work on 1500-2000 guitars per year, so LECTRICare gets a lot of action. Thank you for making such a fine product, and I look forward to using more of your products in the future”

STRINGTone® Product Testimonials
“Where STRINGTone really shines is cleaning, conditioning, and lubricating your hardware. Bridge saddles, tremelos/vibratos, and nuts all function and play better when clean and lubricated. Unlike other spray or powdered lubricants, STRINGTone leaves no residue, and does not build up or leave a sticky feeling. All you’ll notice is better performance: cleaner bends, dive bombs, and silky vibrato.”
“When recording the new Saints Of Lust ep, we used the Sound Synergies STRINGTone conditioning lubricant on all of our stringed instruments before laying tracks. What a huge difference in overall tone & harmonics! Improved playability, tuning and surface protection!”
Greg Turner
Saints Of Lust /2520 Studios
“Almost all of my own personal guitars have now been gone over with your product. The remainder will get the “treatment” once they are restrung again. Very happy with this product. No more Nut Sauce, Carmex, Fast Fret or graphite grease for me. This product covers all of my instrument/tech needs. Will definitely be turning on my tech associates to this, and will sing its praises out to my Facebook feed. It’s equally at home in my tech kit, and on my workbench at home.”

“STRINGTone is hands down the most effective string and instrument cleaner and conditioner I’ve ever used. I can’t believe I didn’t know about you guys – I’ve been a lead guitar player for over 50 years. I would change strings every night on the road. By the 3rd set I could hear them losing their sparkle. If I had this product then I would have been MUCH happier and saved TONS of money.”
Truly, “Where have you been all my (guitar playing) life?”

“I took the bottle of STRINGTone® to Guitar Center in Redondo Beach upon receipt and got the guitar tech there Arturo (I think, LOL) to do a spray and wipe,…it immediately brought the strings back to life and he was shocked and amazed! I saw them go from dull grey to silver like in one pass!”

BRITETone® Product Testimonials
“Everything I have used this on has worked wonders. I started by trying it on my personal instruments until I knew how it would work. I have been repairing instruments for 15 years so I know there are things I am still unaware of, yet I have experienced everything from broken tenons to sand casting irreplaceable woodwind keys. I have a side business that does lost wax casting, sand casting, metal and wood turning, and design. I do like the BRITETone® a ton, and am waiting on a shipment for the drum and electronic sprays to try them as well.”

“I’ve been ‘experimenting’ with the product in my shop for a while and impressed with it’s versatility. I used BRITETone® on 3 school french horns serviced this week. After chemically cleaning the rotors, then lubricating them, I sprayed the casings & re-installed the rotors. Wow! I will also be promoting it to local band directors for use on their ‘summer storage’ instruments.”

“I’ve been using SoundSynergies® BRITETone® to clean and pre-condition my horn. I’m blown away by the difference it’s made in key action and slide movement. It’s as if I play easier and the valves are effortless. I love it and strongly encourage and musician to give this stuff a try.”

“A student of mine came to me to play some scales on his TROMBONE and I could hear his slide grating against the metal. I decided to spray some BRITETone on the slide, and WOW….instantly fixed the problem….this product is 100% better than slide crème or slide oil. I can’t thank you enough for helping me out not only with my tenor sax, but also with the bottle of BRITETone…..it’s AMAZING….”

“Today we had a stuck valve on a 10 year old baritone. Regular valve oil would not help. I sprayed a little of your BRITETone® product on it and it started working great. I had a student’s trumpet that we have been wrestling with for several weeks. His first valve would stick only occasionally and nothing we nor the repair shop seemed to help. Sprayed a little of your BRITETone® product on it and no more sticking. This is really good stuff. Can’t wait to try it on some trombones.”

“It’s always in use around the shop, most often with nut slotting and fret crowning files!”
We use it on any tool that needs smooth and consistent cutting or filing. Here’s just a few ways we use it everyday.
With just a quick spray:
- Fret crowning and nut slotting files give chatter-free results
- Drill, router, and rotary tool bits cut cleaner
- Saw blades glide through any woods
- Conditions tool tables for a non-gumming, resin, and adhesive resistant coating
