LOVE these pedals!…read more So, I called on a Monday, being on the road out in Columbus and on the way to Cleveland. My ONE stop desire was to come to the Earthquaker factory. They answered the phone right away, and were VERY accommodating for us to stop and take a tour. They give tours from 9am to 5pm. We got there a little after 1pm. We were met by several of the employees and Elsa (The mascot) while we waited for our guide. He came over pretty quickly, and showed us the boards, and the production floor. Then the new equipment for tinning the circuit boards was fascinating, as was the graphics room. The staff all seemed SO happy and productive. A really good work environment! We got to go upstairs and play on the pedalboard. Which, of course led to us having gear lust and wanting to buy ALL the cool toys. They do have a blem shelf, which is all 50% off. Some of the blems are intentional (Reverse or duplicated graphics, and colours.) and some are accidental. All are guaranteed to work (All EarthQuaker Pedals are warranteed as long as EarthQuaker is still in business.) We bought a Teeshirt, and a blem pedal. (Which we could NOT find the blem at all.) They gave us some bags. It was a great time. So informative! THANKS EARTHQUAKER!

Bought a pedal called data corrupter.....one of several amazing pedals from earthquaker devices…read morethat I own. I got it off ebay, and it worked fine for a couple weeks. It then would constantly make noise when engaged. I was sad, but wasn't sad for long. I contacted earthquaker devices, and they responded quickly and were extremely friendly. I sent it in even though I got it off eBay and the serial numbers were torn off from Velcro. They fixed it for FREE!! I will but more of their pedals for sure because they are fantastic and well built and I know they will take care of me if anything goes wrong. Thank you! Love love love!!! If you have any extra pedals, ill take them!

While I am SO glad I heard about Lays Guitars, I am SO unhappy it didn't happen 40 years ago. When…read moreI read their origin story, learned about the current owners and met a number of their employees, it became crystal clear I've missed out on a ton of great repair work, very cool in-house built guitars, fantastic stories, and just outstanding living guitar history. Took my newest baby in (https://imgur.com/a/euQA1) for a set-up and enjoyed the entire process from start to finish. These guys know what's-up and it's obvious they LOVE what they do and do it exceptionally well. I couldn't be happier with the result. If you're looking for cheap, go elsewhere. You want top-notch, go to Lays Guitar. I will never, EVER again take my instruments anywhere else.

What a great local business. I will make sure and continue to support Johnny's Music!

Joe Russell and his team did such an amazing job at our wedding and reception - I can't even give…read morethem enough stars and compliments!! Joe was so easy to work with! His professionalism and experience were so evident throughout the whole evening! My husband and I were clueless about what to ask for and expect when it comes to DJ's and their services. Joe held our hand the whole way explaining options, etc. He listened to our requests and put together a killer playlist. He cared about the subtle details and showed that he wanted to make our experience unique. Since he also provided our ceremony music, these details and timing were very important and I was amazed at how it all came together so well. He is the best of the best in my book and should the need ever arise - I would hire him again!

Russell Sound Lab was the DJ service we chose for our wedding this past June, and they did such an…read moreamazing job! Joe did a great job of all of the prep work before hand and provided us with a lot of valuable guidance as far as the timeline, the song list, and the lighting for our reception. He spent a lot of time with us planning the details of our day and how the night was going to go. Some thing I loved particularly about Russell Sound Lab is that they are very upfront with their pricing and packages. We also had them do up lighting for our reception and it looked amazing. It completely set the mood for the night and changed the tone of our reception in the most wonderful way. Bruce was our DJ in charge of the music for the night and he did a fantastic job. He was a great MC with an awesome personality, was very accommodating to requests (we specified that we wanted to take requests), and modified the music anytime I asked. Our dance floor was packed all the way up until midnight and we had a wedding reception for the books. You can't go wrong with this company!

They are such a courteous and professional team. Their work the night of the event was stunning! From the first interaction of outlining our needs until the event wrapped up - everything ran smoothly and was just perfect. I was incredibly nervous the day of our event, but the Dove team was so composed and efficient and did everything with such ease and mastery that it calmed my nerves, too. Best of all, their pricing was great! We received a referral for them, so we were concerned they might be too expensive for our budget, but they actually took our needs into consideration and worked to keep everything under budget. They even added a couple of items that I didn't request (as I didn't know how much it would add to the feel of the event) and included a few free upgrades, as they had just upgraded their equipment. All in all, I can recommend them with the highest confidence! They are excellent at what they do, brilliant in execution, professional and courteous in their interactions, and just an all-around great company to work with. If we ever need AV, Event, etc. services again, we know who to call!

One of the best luthiers in this region…read more I have been going to their shop for years and having luthier work done. John, Susan, and staff are so good. I stopped taking my guitars to others shops regionally, that where endorsed by nationally high level players for setup. Yea...they where good but... John's setup was always a step above. John has has been able to give me back semi-playable so-sos, to a silky smooth sweetheart that I have a hard time parting with, even it not top of the line. Now my grandsons and step-son have requested some of my guitars to learn on. I learned on poor quality stock setup. I wanted to quit until I felt instrument setup correctly...and then I was hooked. I want them to know what a good guitar setup feels like versus factory milktoast setup, so that they want to keep on playing and upgrading to their playing style/level. Wadsworth Music facilities that path with both the service and the inventory selection to upgrade when needed. They seem to have heavy support for the local high school band members as well, which I tend to hold dear. (Sry...bias from being HS band member in my days. Would love a high & tight rudimentary snare drum, or 3 valve B-flat marching baritone if I could still blow solo blues. Alas, those days gone. Low-energy guitars will have to suffice.)

Craftsmanship is fantastic with multiple checks and equipment to ensure proper tuning. I did not have a hard case so he was kind enough to restring it for me while I waited.
