Reaper madness is an exceptional tattoo shop that is set apart from others. Being close to ASU main campus the location is a hot spot and the artists are eager to help you and well priced and not pushy whatsoever. Joey is the owner of the shop and always fantastic, I have been going to Joey for about 4 years now and have followed him to this shop from another, he is professional and always meticulous with the work he does and you can always see him prepping his equipment (Sterile needles going Into the gun and popping on a fresh set of gloves) Joey is phenomenal as far as tattooing goes seeing as how he's been in the trade for almost 20 years now. All of the work he has done with me has been traditional but he can tackle everything you've throw at him. He does an incredible free hand and is amazing all around. The atmosphere of the shop is laid back and cool, with the saloon style doors greeting you right upon entrance and a "tattoo creator" just to your right where you can pick 2 or three images and mash them together adds to the fun of the shop. With bright blue walls and artists showcasing their artwork you can't go wrong at this shop. Any artist you go to will take great care of you. I highly recommend reaper madness. read more

The atmosphere of this shop is great, friendly and welcoming. Every single artist in the shop is top notch and I'd be proud to wear their stuff. For people considering getting their first tattoo: While I was in, I watched the way another artist (https://www.instagram.com/joshparisetattoo/) handled a client getting their first tattoo. Frankly, I was jealous. He treated them with respect, and carefully explained what he was doing at every step. My first tattoo experience was nowhere near as gentle. The artist I work with is Rachel Kramer. (https://www.instagram.com/kramertattoos/) As soon as I walked in, she was friendly and accepting. She drew up something and readily made any requested tweaks to the design. My wife loved Rachel's work and attitude, and she's since come in for her work, and put a down payment on another design. I've since returned and Rachel finished off my sleeve with filler tattoos drawn directly onto my arm to fit into the remaining spaces. That have all become my new favorites. There's no macho bullshit, and every artist is highly talented. I can't recommend this shop enough. read more

For starters: the shop is clean, and the staff makes you feel very comfortable. Really cool people there. Jimmy Gee has done 4 pieces on my leg, with another couple in the works. Every time, he has been super-receptive to my ideas, and stayed true to what I was hoping for. Never makes me feel dumb about something I'm thinking. At the same time, he is also really good about refining an idea, and making sure that I stay away from things that won't "translate" well. Honestly, sometimes you just have to trust your artist when they say, "hmm...maybe we should tweak this," etc. So I really appreciate his willingness to help me get the best out of my tattoo. The guy is an ultimate homie, well-worth his price, constantly making sure that you're comfortable, not in too much pain, etc. He's just a pro, and I'm very happy with all the work so far read more

I recommend Jimmy to anyone who's ever brought up tattoos within ear shot of me. Everyone in the shop is super friendly and chill. The place is really clean and has generally just a really nice atmosphere. Jimmy is always professional and it's always obvious that he cares about making his art and his tattoos perfect - he just really gets into what he does and it's something I've had problems with in other tattoo shops around town so it's always really appreciated. He's also great with checking with you about everything during the process (including being sympathetic if youre in too much pain) and of course his work is always amazing. If you're looking to get a tattoo, and especially if you're in Tempe, HIGHLY recommend! read more

If you are looking for a tattoo parlor with the best artists, great variety of style, awesome atmosphere and thats as clean as possible.... then you will absolutely LOVE Reaper Madness!! The shop is amazing and so are the artists. They really work with you to make sure they get the tattoo perfect and exactly how you want it. Josh Praise was the tattoo artist who did the tattoos for my wife and me. He is fantastic and the whole crew made us feel like family. I will only be going to this shop for all of my tattoos. I could seriously ramble on forever about how happy I am with the entire experience. But truly, you should stop reading this and go to Reaper Madness ASAP!!!! read more

My friend and I were recommended this place to get a tattoo. We both had bad experiences at different shops in the past and were wanting to find a place we would feel comfortable. This was BY FAR THE BEST experience we have ever had! We worked with Josh who took his time with us in the creative process to make sure we were getting exactly what we wanted. He was also very respectful and polite the whole time which is very refreshing. When we got down to getting the tattoos, he was super thorough and had a perfectionist mind set which is exactly what I want from an artist, making sure all the lines were even and the same. I will definitely be back for more from Josh! read more

Best tattoo shop I've ever walked into. It's nice to have people talk to you when you walk in & ask if you have any questions! Never awkward going in, everyone is really friendly. The whole place is awesome & it's VERY clean. It's about 45 min from where I live but it's completely worth it. I've gotten my last 4 tattoos here all done by Jimmy. His work and style is the best & he always exceeds my expectations, which is why I only go to him whenever I have a new tattoo idea! Definitely recommend going here! read more

Rachel did all 3 of my tattoos and she was so wonderful.

I love the atmosphere of the place and how friendly everyone is. I will definitely continue to come to her for future work. read more

Jimmy tattooed me a little while back and honestly it's my favorite piece. He was not only fast but also helped me understand proper placement and color matches better than any artist I've encountered. If you're looking for a friendly and welcoming environment then you've found the right place. read more

I've been tattooed by Jimmy several times in the past couple years here. He's a badass artist and aside from some loose suggestions, I like to let him do what he wants. That's when I get the best work. If you're going to get work done here, get in with Jimmy Gee. You'll be glad you did. read more
