I emailed, asking if they work on DIY amplifiers, and that I had been working on one for a few months, but was having trouble. I was up front that I am a novice, and was just hoping to get the amp working. They responded, saying they'd be happy to help get the amplifier up and running. I took the amp in, and a little over a week later, hadn't heard anything back, so I called to check. They advised they had only had a chance to look at the inputs and tone pots, and that it "wasn't worth their time". This felt lazy, rude, and I don't understand why they didn't just decline to service it at drop off, rather than wait. While I appreciate that they didn't charge for looking at the two sections they looked at, this still was a pretty poor experience.

Here's a shout out to Miciah of Dodge Music Studios for letting my son use his studio to practice…read morewhile we were visiting Phoenix. If you find it's hard to get your child to practice music at home, you'll also know how nearly impossible it is when traveling. In the past I have contacted music schools, rented instruments, and even bought a keyboard and hardcase. Each of these solutions created its own problem from the school that said we could use any open practice room only to be barged in on by a very pissed off nine-year old who insisted we were using "her" piano, to having to returned to a music store for parts missing from the keyboard we rented, to having to pay a hefty additional fee to the airline for the oversized instrument case. By good fortune I found Dodge Music when planning our trip to Phoenix. Miciah made it easy to arrange and pay for practice space but the best part was the studio itself, a nicely furnished and impeccably clean room with a well-tuned baby grand. Sure beat the shoebox sized and airless practice rooms that we had to put up with in the past using console pianos that were on their last leg. Miciah was friendly, obliging but never intrusive and let my son get on with his practice as soon as we stepped in. An added bonus was Miciah's dog Gizmo, a very gentle, short-hair dog who would hang out with us. My son is very allergic to animal dander but both the house and Gizmo were almost antiseptically clean (compare my house anyway). My son didn't have any problems with his allergies and Gizmo was a welcomed lesson companion. Even though my son wasn't taking lessons from Miciah, I can say with confidence that his studio exude a relaxed atmosphere where one can readily focus on lessons. Thanks a lot, Miciah and you too, Gizmo!

My…read moreguitars came back in wonderful condition and I was charged much less than I thought it would be. The first guitar was a newer Blacktop Fender Jaguar that had some neck problems from being left in a hot garage. I gave it to Mark Allred and had him do a neck adjustment and full set-up. The guitar now plays better than when I bought it. The other guitar I brought was much more complicated. I had an old 70's something Tiesco guitar that had a myriad of problems. Not to mention, I had taken it apart to paint it and effectively broke and/or lost some things. I brought the shell of a guitar, plus a zip-lock bag full of parts to Mark. He couldn't promise that it would ever function again - that, I understood. He managed to fix the pickup, made some parts for it and put it all back together. The guitar sounds great and plays outstandingly well. I was ecstatic to get both guitars back in such great condition. I'd recommend Allred guitars to anyone who wants to get their stringed instrument back in working order.
