It may be a great clean but should you be up charging at the time of pick up when you were quoted a price and there were no problems at the time of service?

Many years ago I got burned buying a new Martin with a very poor neck set and bad truss rod. Martin was not forthcoming in wanting to pay for the repairs. So, when I am looking at a purchase I have a machinists rule that I use to take critical measurements, on every guitar I pick up. This got on Susan's nerves, and I understand. Regardless, and most important to me, Susan is the most talented guitar teacher I have ever met, and I'm old. Her written arrangements of tunes are so far superior to most of what is out there. She should put together some type of book and it would be well welcomed. I live outside Charlotte, so it is LONG drive for somebody in my age bracket, 70's. First, I'd like to calm her down from my first meeting.. Then, I'd like to try and figure somehow, some way that we could get together on lessons. take my word, I doubt you will do better than susan Blessings On Susan and Her Folks !

Al was amazing. Then I moved down here. This business is amazing as well. I had a catastrophic injury (yes, I said "injury" instead of damage because my instrument is part of me rather than a separate object), and Andrew, the person who repaired my violin, worked relentlessly on it until it was not only back into original shape but better than it was originally. I was referred to Jim Clinton Violins from Pecknell, which has kind people running it and was kind enough to treat me as a human being. If y are rolling in money and used to seeing others treated badly, go to House of Violins. you can see classism at work there. Filthy, nasty attitudes and rude, horrible, dishonest people who dwell in foolish consistency.

I recently bought a used tube amp from this store online and had it shipped to another state. First…read moreoff, the amp was mislabeled on the site (the website listed it as a Fender Supersonic 22 but the picture was clearly an older Supersonic 60) and I had to call to clarify which it was. The first day I called, the person who answered didn't understand my question, said they would call me back, and never did. I called again two days later, finally got an answer, and made the purchase. When the amp arrived, the box was in absolutely terrible shape - barely sealed, full of holes, and partly crushed (see pics). Obviously some of that could have happened in transit. I hope it didn't leave the store like this. But a lot of that damage could have been prevented by actually packing the box properly. There was A TON of empty space inside. The amp was bubble wrapped, but the box was much larger than the amp. That empty space was not effectively padded, so the amp could easily roll around within the box. Against all odds, the amp still turned on, but it has severe tube rattle. I'm likely going to have to replace all the tubes. I'm guessing you guys don't typically sell amps in that state, so the tubes probably got busted in transit, which could have been prevented by putting a single sliver of a thought into how the box was packed. Anyway, I have no idea what this store is like if you go there in person but I STRONGLY recommend against getting something shipped from them.
