The store sent it over to their amp guru for further troubleshooting. Turned it around sooner than I was expecting, since it was so weird. Super job ! Turned out to be a silly (but important) slide switch for speaker impedance selection. The signal could not get to the speakers. Replaced it and called me that it was ready. Magnificent !! Thanks to Mark's entire team. I am so, so happy !

I brought in a high end acoustic guitar for a simple pickup installation. I called first and was…read moretold they might be able to get it done the same day or maybe the next. I arrived within an hour of my call and learned that it would be a few days since it was a Friday and they are closed Sunday. (Not bad really but I needed it was told it was probable) I was told I could pay an upcharge for "express service" and agreed. I picked up the guitar the next day. When I got home I discovered the soundhole mounted control panel with Volume and tone controls was mounted so far to the rear that my index finger was wedged between the low E string and the tone knob in order to turn the thumbwheel. I was not told or informed whether there may be an issue with placement due to bracing. I would understand I that's the case but I should have been informed or asked about it. This makes using the tone knob impractical. The express service upcharge was essentially a waste of money because I had to drive back and leave the guitar. This time a couple more days. Chuck said they were short staffed maybe they could get it the next day. It's mounted with Double sided sticky tape and/or velcro. How long could it take? Two days later with no contact I just drove back and picked up the guitar and I'll get it fixed elsewhere. I have gigs I need to play and that's what I got this guitar for. I gig professionally and did 145 shows last year. Again, Chuck said they were short staffed but my experience is delivery time to fix an issue became a moving targett. I understand things happen but this was not a good first experience with the shop. I probably won't go back. Their charges are also higher than what other shops charge in town b based on my 30 years of gigging in Tucson. Overall this is not a huge deal but my first experience with this shop including 'express service' was not good.

Arriving home, I found the slide to be WORSE than when it had been left there. It also seems that none or very little of the promised work was completed. After hiring a specialized brass craftsperson to do the job, the trombone looks and feels incredible. I emailed IMC on May 21 after having it inspected by the new repair person and learning how badly the store had performed. Nearly every item requested at check-in was not done, including replacement of the old, deteriorated cork barrel slide damper.
