Music Villa and Paul. THANK YOU. Great purchase experience. I travel from northern Nevada to visit…read morefamily in Bozeman with a great deal of frequency. Normally, I drive so I can bring a guitar. Often, I duck into Music Villa for strings and small items at either the Bozeman or Billings store. However, I was in the market for a PRS Custom 24. Not sure if I was going to go with an SE model or an S2 model. The Bozeman store had both. So, my wife and I decided to visit the store. We met Paul. No intention to make a purchase so I wasn't sure if I would be able to demo these two models. Paul was more than welcoming and encouraged the demo. Hands down, the S2 version of the PRS Custom 24 sealed my decision. Brilliant guitar. I could have ordered one from Sweatwater, but how does that help the local vibe, experience, and effort? Paul was adamant their shipping process was exceptional. Always a concern with the amount of money you invest. So, I pulled the trigger and made my purchase. Paul offered new strings and a slight adjustment to the set up. Well, last night, like a Stork delivering a baby, UPS landed on my front porch with my prize. Extremely well packaged and looked just as beautiful out of the case as it did in the store. A quick tune and I must have played for 4 hours. Had a blast. The PRS is included in my quiver alongside my Gibson Less Paul Standard, my Gibson J45 acoustic and my Martin and Taylor acoustics. The PRS S2 Custom 24 sounded great with my Marshall amp. Thanks again Paul and Music Villa. On a side note...The store itself is clean, organized, well appointed and the ambiance just makes you want to enjoy yourself. The staff, second to none. Overall a great no rush experience.

He focuses a lot of energy on fundamentals and really drives home the importance of working from a base of polished core techniques. Lots of theory but also plenty of play and improvisation. I feel that he puts just as much emphasis on the mindset of being a musician and performer as he does on the gritty details of how to hold a stick and breathe life out of a drum. Great guy and very patient. Highly recommended!
