I've never felt like I've been taken advantage of, and they've always helped me out when I've needed it. I want to just say a big thank you to guitar center for all the years of great service. It means a lot. I recently purchased an amp and had an issue with it and Dylan the store manager without question took care of the issue. I can't state enough how professional the guys at the store were. They made a rough situation easy, which goes a long way in my book. Thank you.

And there it is...My 1969 Martin D-28...after months of restoration. The last time I had played…read morethis guitar I was 20 years old and it was broken and missing for 43 years...then yesterday I picked it up again...the first thing I noticed was how heavy and thick the body was compared to contemporary guitars...how deep and red the now extinct Brazilian rosewood was and how most all of the shiny surface lacquer finish was gone. Then there were the first two digs I put on it when I was 16. I sat down and strummed a chord and then another and then just started playing intuitively. The instrument was perfectly tuned and the sound resonating from the aged woods was symphonic. No buzzes, no fret noise, none! The intonation, string height and the full overall feel was perfect. Wow, I got my guitar back and it is still in tune. Thanks, Mike...and Todd's Music Express.

And they are all locally owned and operated. What more could you ask for?

(I live in San Diego but the guitar was being sold in N.O.). When I called Strange Guitarworks, I spoke with Aaron and he couldn't have been nicer. Aaron said when the guitar came into their shop, they would inspect it and give me a call so we could talk about the condition of the guitar and if it had any problems, which is exactly what happened! Aaron called me, gave me a detailed breakdown on the guitar and he didn't charge me a dime for his time. From our phone call, it was clear that Aaron knew a ton about guitars and what to look for when evaluating their condition. Thanks to their help, I was able to make an informed decision about purchasing the guitar. Great customer service!! Thank you!!
