Bela takes the time to go through every part of the songs and music with you, and she is a very patient teacher. One of her best qualities is that she is not a quitter, and she will keep working with you until the song is perfect! She is very motivational, and she understands her students interests and needs.

Having called ahead to…read moreconfirm inventory, they were ready for us when we arrived and set up in a private studio room both a white Music Man Kaizen and a Gibson J-45 I had asked about (pretty diverse, huh?). Then Fred did a great job ordering the "Kryptonite" color Kaizen for us and in particular was able to secure the lighter weight guitar from the two on hand in the warehouse. Then the day the guitar arrived the store manager, Jim, called to make sure we were all good! Yes, yes we are ALL good. Truthfully, some Guitar Center stores have a spotty reputation but the Clearwater store is top shelf with us and I am here to spread the word!

It appears he used improper tools, sloppy technique, and did no protective taping. It is rough, uneven, and he also proceeded to over bevel the frets to almost 3 times the proper length so the string constantly pops off the side. When I brought it to his attention and asked him to pay to have the neck that he ruined replaced, he refused.
