    Guitars From Spain

    I was shopping for a Classical guitar when I came across Guitars From Spain online. I was in…read moreJamaica at the time and planning to travel to South Florida. I contacted Eduardo and we communicated via WhatsApp, he was very personable and helpful. He was going to be out of the country at the time I would arrive in Florida, but we set up an appointment to meet up on his return. He kept in touch with me while he was away which I appreciated. The guitar I was interested in was the Esteve 7SR, the price was right and Eduardo had done a review of it on YouTube so I had some idea of how it sounded. When we finally met up at Eduardo's studio, I was very impressed with his warmth and his professional manner. He welcomed me in, and offered me a seat and some water. He went straight to the business of getting to know a bit about me and my playing, I had a few questions for him and he gave me the answers I was hoping for. He brought out 4 guitars which were in and around my price range, and had me play each of them without identifying the one I came to purchase. I was never rushed, he gave me a few pointers while I was playing and he also played each guitar so I could hear how each one sounded from in front rather behind the sound board. In the end, I picked the one I came for. It was meant to be. I love my Esteve 7SR and I absolutely love the service, attention to detail, the warmth and professionalism shown by Eduardo. Oh, I got a set of strings, and a guitar humidifier at no extra cost. It was the best guitar shopping experience I have ever had. I am definitely buying my next guitar from Eduardo at Guitars From Spain in Boca Raton Florida. Thanks Eduardo.

Eduardo was truly a pleasure working with, straightforward, honest man, with extensive guitar knowledge and great advice. I was lucky to find my Cedar top with an amazing warm sound. I'll be back for my next one.

    My name is Eric Steinmetz, and I have been a Guitar Center customer since the 1980s. In all, I…read morepurchased at lead a dozen guitars and fifteen amplifiers from your locations coast to coast. By my calculations, I have spent over $150,000 in your stores in thirty years. I consider myself a loyal Guitar Center customer. Until lately, I've always found your store staff to be amazingly helpful and considerate, which further endears Guitar Center to me. Your staff in Hallandale, Florida, especially Samish, my guitar guardian, is incredible. The manager in Coconut Creek, Aaron, has always been friendly, helpful and engaging. His staff in Coconut Creek is at best, "If-ie." Arron has always made me feel welcome and appreciated, which is why I switched my on-going guitar lessons to your incredible instructor Maxx at Coconut Creek. Recently I bought a total of six of your Proline SL24NR Natural Series Rechargeable Folding Music Stand Lights for my band to use at practices. Not expecting any of them to be defective, I didn't see the need to keep the receipt (s), I threw them out. One was defective right out of the box, neither charging nor lighting up when powered by the appropriate power source. I brought the defective Proline light to the store last Saturday when I went for my guitar lesson. The salesperson Steve was gracious as always and helpfully searched for the transaction but couldn't locate such. Steve informed me that any warranty issue, even when the product is new out of the box, was between me and the manufacturer. He said he couldn't help me but gave me Proline's telephone number. Your store manager Aaron was not available to interact with at that time. I further talked with your salesperson, Liz, when I purchased Schaller strap locks, She confirmed Guitar Center's policy of not participating in defective merchandise replacement. I asked if the last guitar I bought in Coconut Creek, a Fender Precision bass, had been defective, what is Guitar Center's position? She told me in that event, I would need to contact Fender personally regarding my $2000 purchase for help resolving any warranty issues. This stated policy is, in my opinion, unacceptable. I have been a loyal customer for well over thirty years and your unwillingness to help me with a recent $39 purchase, especially considering my recent purchases of the Precision, a Gibson 335, and Mark V amp from your stores, is rude and short sighted. One only needs to look up my account using my phone number to review my purchase history. To note, I needed a Fender Telecaster last week for some recording. The most recent experience in Coconut Creek left me upset and I could not in good conscious purchase such from Guitar Center. I bought the Tele from Sweetwater and the appropriate amp for my upcoming work. Guitar Center's shortsighted warranty policy left me upset and you lost a substantial sale and a loyal customer. I plan now to further my business with your competition Sweetwater and to patronize other local music stores in lieu of Guitar Center whenever possible. Just something to consider.

    Prices are waaay higher than on line stores like Sweetwater, Music 123 etc…read more PLUS...the on line stores offer free shipping unlike Guitar Center. I have also found that GC stores either hire bozos or simply don't train their employees....they seem to have no knowledge the items they sell. Oh yeah...one more thing. Guitar Center's in store inventory is extremely shallow. More often than not you have to buy it then wait for delivery to the store then go pick it up.

I should have know he was terrible, when he asked me to inspect the guitar outside in his porch, I gave him the benefit of the doubt as these old timers sometimes are good techs. Conversation is attached as well as the pics from before and after. I have also to provide context as he said in person he could get me to 98% there, and I was dumb enough to believe him. he said it would be done in a week. and gave me a hand written paper with the serial of the guitar mistakenly on it. The next WEEKS, were a combination of I need more days, I am sick, the dog ate the guitar and so on. After asking for several updates, he said the shape was 100% and color 80%? Please see the pictures, he is either a scammer or color blind. Also he did not mentioned that he messed up the binding and over grinded the guitar right next to the area. When I picked up the guitar he was unapologetic, he said he would not charge me but I needed to go elsewhere for a repair. I did tip him 45 bucks and left before I started seeing red. I asked him to pay for the repair at another tech and he agreed, when I asked him for approval from a quote from another tech for 25 more dollars than he was charging me, he said he would pay and called me an extortionist. blocked straight away, run do not even think about bringing your instruments here if you care about them.

The day before, I had broken a string on my acoustic guitar, so I decided to take a chance--based on a Yelp recommendation--and called Greg at Six Strings Down to see if he could replace it. Not only was he able to install a new string, but he also took the time to assess my guitar, polish the wood, and treat the instrument as if it were his own. His craftsmanship is impeccable, and Greg himself is personable, proficient, and professional. He promised simply to repair the string, but he went above and beyond in every respect. I would highly recommend Greg for ANY guitar issue. Respectfully, Bob Feldman
