  Amazing wedding guitarist

  If you're looking for an outstanding guitarist for any type of event, big or small, LOOK NO FURTHER!! I can't begin to explain how amazing Jabe is! From our first communications back and forth, Jabe has been so quick to respond, outgoing, and was able to answer any and all of our questions. His personal website was an awesome resource for sampling some of his work, as well as selecting our personalized playlist for our wedding. Together we created the most epic setlist for our wedding cocktail hour and it completely matched our personality, venue, and wedding style. Jabe was beyond amazing and all our guests absolutely loved his performance! He came perfectly on time and was self sufficient setting up. He worked quietly in the background as the wedding ceremony was taking place, and was ready to rock as soon as cocktail hour began.
  
  Jabe completely exceeded all of our expectations. Our wedding was EPIC and he was one of the main reasons. He truly goes above and beyond for his clients and you would be so lucky if he were your entertainment for your next event. 10 stars! HIGHLY recommend!

  Hands down, Jabe is THE best! He was our guitarist for our wedding ceremony at Monarch Beach Resort, and we couldn't have been happier. He was SO chill, friendly, and effortless to work with and had an impressive, diverse song list (we went with Super Mario Bros. for our recessional, and Jabe plays the radest version on the bass.) He is flexible and can also customize and learn any songs! Did a combo of acoustic and voice and was awesome at both.
  
  Jabe is reliable, punctual and professional. He was on site to set-up and soundcheck in advance to ensure everything was perfect. Our guests commented how pleasant and great he performed. Pricing is very reasonable, but seriously, the experience with Jabe on our big day was priceless. Work with Jabe. I repeat, work with Jabe!

  Jabe is incredibly talented! I wanted to walk down the aisle to "My Cherie Amour" by Stevie Wonder. He learned it and performed it flawlessly. Everyone also enjoyed his choice of songs during the cocktail hour. Definitely recommend Jabe for any wedding or any party you need a guitarist!

  I cannot say enough about Jabe and his incredible artistic talent!! He made my wedding day perfect, from the four songs he sang and played before the ceremony began, to the songs that I snuck into the ceremony schedule last minute, to the reception where he sang and played his heart out!! (He also announced my father/daughter dance and the cake cutting!! Bonus points for that!) I had been looking for the perfect guitarist for our wedding for awhile, and when I heard his voice I knew he would be perfect for my wedding reception. He has an impressive set list you can pick and choose from and he's very responsive. I cannot wait to go see him play at one of his regular gigs! He truly made my wedding day the most incredible day ever!!! And when he played "Sweet Child O Mine" by Guns & Roses while my father and I had our first dance everyone burst into tears, it was a perfect, unforgettable moment! Thanks Jabe!!!

  My husband and I were quite picky when it came to music for our wedding. We went through several prospective guitarists before we came across Jabe. We hired him for our ceremony and cocktail hour and from the very first contact he was kind, responsive, and professional. One of the first things that drew us to Jabe was his expansive song bank - my husband and I are huge metal/classic rock fans and HAD to have some of our favorites played. Not only did Jabe know them, he played them perfectly (especially Over The Hills and Far Away which I walked down the aisle to.) Many of our guests commented that they would love to hire Jabe for their own events and we honestly couldn't recommend him enough! If you want your special day/event to be even more memorable - hire Jabe!

  I contacted Jabe to ask him to play at my proposal. I couldn't be more satisfied. Although it was couple of days to my proposal date and he had another performance same day in morning he agreed to help, and he truly did. He has a great set list that I believe can cover any occasion. He took the time to walk through every step of my surprise proposal. I asked him to play unplugged and still he was awesome. He made it there right on time, he discussed all the logistics with the hotel and restaurant manager. He played exactly as we planned. His instrument and voice made my fiancé so excited I couldn't even imagine. On top of all that, the PRICE he offered was much less than I expected, I'd say it was free for what I got. I'd 100% recommend him and surely I will ask him again to perform for my future parties.
  Thank you so very much Jabe.

  My husband and I hired Jabe for a couple hours to play music at our wedding reception. I had found Jabe through Yelp and he was very reasonable after having reached out to quite a few guitar players. His song list is great and our family/friends enjoyed his music!

  I was nervous about hiring Jabe because he was the only entertainment for our small wedding. Everything landed on his shoulders – ceremony music, cocktail hour, and reception. I’m happy to say he more than delivered. He was so easy to work with. Just view his setlist online, and send him your requests. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about this guy who played everything from the Beatles to Jason Mraz to The Cure. We liked him so much, we’re going to hire him again for another party we’ll be hosting. Thank you Jabe!

  Jabe was our guitarist for our wedding and we found him through Yelp. He was really easy to communicate with via text, email, or phone which I appreciated. He was extremely friendly and his song list was a big hit at our wedding! He talked us through a lot of steps during the way from when we hired him until our wedding which greatly helped our planning process. I really feel he went above and beyond which was very much appreciated. We got many texts after our wedding about how much they loved the guitarist and how it set the mood for our wedding and how wonderful he is. I'm super super super happy with how everything turned out so thanks a ton Jabe!!!

  First of all, if I could give Jabe more than 5 stars I would. Jabe was referred to us by our wedding planner (Adina at the Event Loft)... And he was so great. He let us pick out all the songs from his playlist we wanted to hear, and he performed them perfectly.
  
  He also learned a few songs for the ceremony, and you couldn't tell he had learned them for that day!
  
  Lastly, we got SO MANY compliments about him all throughout the night. I cannot recommend him enough.

  To say Jabe is great is a HUGE understatement. I first saw Jabe performing at the Hilton Waterfront Hotel on Mother's Day and I was blown away with his performance. His catalog of songs is so vast and he plays / sings every one to perfection. I was looking for a live musician to play my wedding and I knew Jabe would be perfect, but I wasn't sure I'd be able to afford him with how awesome he is. I got his card that day and he followed up with a quote and I couldn't believe how reasonable his pricing was. He also was willing to travel, which was great because the wedding was at a Temecula winery. Also, I was impressed with jabe's work ethic and how professional he was. He showed up to the wedding an hour early just so he could make sure that everything was set up in time without any problems (free of charge). Finding a great musician is one thing, but finding a professional musician who is on time is harder than one might think. Jabe's performance was awesome throughout the wedding and I still have our wedding guests coming up to me and telling me how great the music was (one of which is my buddy who has his own guitar teaching business and also performs). Jabe was the perfect addition at our wedding and I'm definitely going to catch him at one of his many weekend events, while enjoying a great glass of wine. Thanks again Jabe.
