A decade older, I decided that I don't play hard enough to warrant 13s, so I asked a musician friend of mine who he'd trust with his most valued instruments. He said Renown was it, so I headed over. I walked in on a Wednesday, asked for a setup for lighter strings. The staff were helpful and openly gave recommendations when I didn't really know what to say after they asked what kind of strings I'd like. I settled on Stringjoy light gauge strings. They promised Tuesday of the following week due to the heavy workload they'd received recently. I got the call two days later on Friday; it was ready to be picked up. When I got my guitar back, their charge was WAY cheaper than Guitar Center (like a fraction of the cost), and my guitar plays better than it ever has. No fret buzz, no intonation issues, and sooo comfortable. I played for about three minutes, and said aloud to an empty room, "Wow." I love this place and I'm probably going to take them my Martin this week.
