    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.

    I walked in, walked. The entire store was wanting to look at buying a drum set not one person asked…read moreif I needed help or any service at all as I proceeded to walk out the door. They just looked at me and didn't say a word you wanna talk about no service at all.

    This business is the best place for repairs that I have ever seen in Greenville, South Carolina. I…read moreused to live in Spartanburg, SC and got help from a luthier named Al Beam up there. 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 tried to get help from House of Violins and was treated very disrespectfully by a snobbish and harsh man who humiliated me and gave me a grossly inflated price. I will never forget the respect I was given at Jim Clinton Violins. I am a professional in the. Greenville Community and will do everything in my power to make sure that their reputation is carried far and wide as a great place to go. They are truly gifted craftspeople who know not only the way to bring an instrument back to life but to convey the humanity of their work as well. They have an old-world aspect to their work which is a challenge to find, but it is there.

    Good morning. My…read morename is Dmitri. In case you ever need another luthier to help your customers, please feel free to reach out to my dad and me. His name is Nikolai Goudkov. He's been in business since 1969 doing all kinds of work on electric and acoustic guitars plus any electronics. He makes his own guitars too: www.goudkovguitars.com (with testimonials), but his main focus is repairs, intonation, and playability. He offers a life warranty free of charge because hardly anybody returns my dad's work. He's an excellent luthier in case you ever need one more for your team. We're in West Union, Oconee County. My dad will be happy to come out to you and repair a guitar for you for free so that you can judge his work. My phone number is 413-822-1904. God bless you.

    When my daughter started middle school orchestra, we purchased her cello from musical innovations,…read morebecause that's where her school recommended. She's now out of college and hasn't played cello in a while, so I called musical innovations to see if they would buy it. When I walked in the store, I saw the owner, and my brain immediately thought "Oh, her. I forgot about her." I remember the owner being a very rude person. Sure enough, in the five minutes I was in the store, she was rude to me twice. I left the cello with her anyway, but they just called back and offered me 1/3 of what the cello should reasonably sell for. Obviously, I'm not selling it to them.
