I didn't mention that I also wanted to talk about special ordering an upperline Deering banjo that would have gotten them a huge profit. As they didn't want to sell me the picks for it I assumed they wouldn't be interested in selling me the banjo. I had it shipped from the Sam Ash store in Las Vegas.

I would definitely go back to him... and probably will be soon to get my bow rehaired.

My son is 11 and joining orchestra for the first time. He was fitted properly for a violin and I felt confident in their hands. Some info: Rental: $25 a month and no contract. Debited or credited automatically each month. It came with violin, bow, chin rest, shoulder rest and a case. Not to mention ALL repairs are covered and tuning. The $25 also includes accidental break insurance. Value: 70% of each monthly fee is stored as credit on your account towards a brand new violin. They said it takes approximately 2 years worth to get one! By that time, my son will be able to know if he is committed to the violin and can get his very own. How awesome

I honestly can't say enough positive things about Tim at Apex Guitar Rescue. I brought my…read moredaughter's guitar in with a dead pickup and a switch that seemed wired backwards, and told him I knew very little about guitars. With me watching, he opened up the electronics, with a small amount of space due to a PCB board making things tight. He tried moving things around and tried different things but nothing was happening. Then he noticed the switch itself was loose and pulled it out of the guitar and it started working. "I know what it is. The paint on the inside is actually conductive and when this thing got turned, it shorted against the inside. That's also why it seems like it is wired to the wrong side - the switch has turned a full 180." He aligned it back, tightened it up, and everything plays great with both pickups and the switch now aligns with where it should be depending on which pickup is active. Basically everything works great. Tim talked a bit about how the electrical connections can be sensitive, and quickly went over a bunch of other parts of the guitar and aligned, tightened, so many different parts explaining what he was doing along the way. I feel like I walked out with a new guitar, and yet he charged a really modest fee! Before bringing it to Tim, I went to another local shop. One he realized I was not interested in his (more expensive) services other than just fixing the pickup, he was dismissive about almost everything on the guitar and said it probably plays horrible without ever playing a note or even plugging a jack into it, and suggested I buy a new guitar for my daughter. Contrast that experience with Apex Guitar Rescue, where Tim was so honest, skilled, and respectful of my time and money, and even said our guitar is great. I can't imagine bringing my guitar anywhere else. (BTW, the big G has tons more reviews of Apex Guitar Rescue.)
