Used amplifier purchase with issues

Quality

I bought a second-hand amp that was giving me some trouble with the sound. I thought it would be an easy fix, but turns out I found some old parts that were no longer in use and a speaker coil that was busted. Even with all my years working in electronics, I couldn't figure it out because I couldn't find the right parts and customer service wasn't much help at all.

Nashville Telecaster and Vintera Stratocaster

Quality

I bought two guitars recently. The first one had three frets with holes under the tang, so the retailer gave me a discount. The second guitar also had three frets with gaps under the tangs, and the high E string was out of line.

Electric Guitar

Quality

As a musician, having good quality instruments is essential for my performance. So, last year, I decided to splurge on a new electric guitar to level up my sound. I did a ton of research and finally settled on a model that was known for its top-notch craftsmanship and killer tone. When I got the guitar, I was initially blown away by how cool it looked. But, when I inspected it closely, I noticed some major issues with how it played. The frets were making this annoying buzzing noise, and the hardware just felt cheap, not meeting the high standards I had in mind. Feeling pretty let down by my purchase, I contacted the manufacturer to sort things out. Unfortunately, their response was a bit lackluster, redirecting me to the supplier without much assurance that my concerns would be taken seriously.

Potentiometer for my guitar

Quality

I bought a potentiometer for my guitar, thinking it was a legit part from the company. But when I checked it before putting it on, it turns out it was only 180k ohm instead of the 250k ohm as advertised. It's a real let down 'cause now the part's no good to me. I was hoping for better QC from the company and I'm not happy with the product being inaccurate.

Electric guitar

Quality

Hey there! I recently bought an electric guitar from your store and I just have to say, I'm really impressed with the quality of the guitar and all the options you had available for us guitar lovers. Your staff really knew their stuff and helped me pick out the perfect guitar. I found exactly what I was looking for and I was totally satisfied with my shopping experience. The guitars are so well crafted and the attention to detail is amazing. I'm so proud to own one of your instruments. Thanks a bunch!

Fender Stratocaster MIJ '84/'87

Quality

My first Fender Stratocaster MIJ is from the E series, dating back to '84/'87. I bought it used in '95 when I was only 13, and it's been my go-to guitar ever since. Even though I've added more guitars to my collection and tried out different ones, nothing beats the quality and sound of my Stratocaster. I now have a bunch of Fender guitars - a Telecaster, a Mustang, a Precision bass, and a Doheny G&L - all showing off Leo Fender's genius designs. Basically, my Fender collection speaks for itself when it comes to quality and performance.

Guitars, Amps, Picks

Quality

I gotta say, I am super impressed with the quality and craftsmanship of the products I recently picked up. These guitars, man, they really bring out the richness and dynamic vibes in my music compositions. And don't even get me started on the amps - excellent amplification for when I'm playing live. The picks are great too, super durable and comfy to play with, really adding to the whole experience. Massive shoutout to Fender for hooking me up with these amazing tools for my music journey. If you're into music or just on the hunt for top-notch gear, I totally recommend checking out this brand.

Recently purchased an American Lonestar model guitar

Quality

I'm really happy with how well this instrument is made, especially the pickups. But I have to say, the basic tremolo system could use an upgrade to match the overall quality of the guitar.

Squier Jazz Bass and Acoustic Guitar

Quality

This review might make it seem like I'm really into gear, but believe me, I'm just a musician who knows what sounds good. The acoustic guitar I got came with an awesome case, which was a nice extra touch. The sound is amazing, especially for the price. As for the Jazz Bass, I've put a lot of time and effort into it. I've been playing it consistently for over 5 years, making adjustments here and there to get the sound just perfect. Upgraded the bridge and tuning keys, changed out the pickups - now it's a monster on stage.

Recent guitar purchase

Quality

I recently got myself a brand new acoustic guitar and I couldn't be happier with how it sounds and feels. The tone is just so rich and full, and I can already tell it's only going to get better as time goes on. I haven't run into any issues with it yet, and I have a good feeling it's going to stick with me for many years to come. While I usually prefer Ernie Ball strings, I have to say the ones that came with this guitar are holding up pretty darn well. The design is just so classic and timeless, no unnecessary fancy stuff or online updates, and that's exactly what I was after. Besides this acoustic guitar, I've also got some strats and amps from the same brand, and I'm hoping they'll hang around just as long as I will. I might have to do some rewiring or replace a few parts down the line, but I'm more than willing to put in the effort to keep these babies in top shape.
