I've heard many horrible stories but I cannot confirm them personally but I did read some of his online ads and explanations of Taylor and other brands and it was some of the most idiotic stuff I have ever read. I'm sure you will hear a flood about him if you ask this on the electric guitar forum. That's where I think I read all of it.

I'll do a search there then, thanks.

 

*edit*

 

WOW. I am so happy I found out about this guy, cause I got a good laugh out of reading the things people say about him. The stuff they said they did to him and the NAMM show and just the general distast people have for him is hilarious.

You nailed it LB. This guy has a vile reputation. Mention his name on the Electric forum and the profanity immediately runs hot and thick.

 

People have even put up web pages about what a slimeball Ed Roman is. Check this out for some laughable horror stories: http://edroman.aleclee.com/main.html

I had only one personal experience - was buying a 'cheapy' acoustic - Samick OM8CE and they had a good price - about $279 plus shipping. I ordered on-line, got an order confirmation, but no guitar. When I called to check status they informed me that the guitar was going to be $400 rather than the posted price. I cancelled the order and ordered one at a local shop. Just one anecdote for ya.

He recently got evisceratd on the TalkBass Forum.

 

I dealt with him twice in the early 1990s. Nothing bad really happened. It wasn't great but not really bad.

 

Overall, his reputation is far from flattering.

Love him or hate him, he's got a beautiful new store in Las Vegas. I drove by it Saturday, on the way to the airport. He must be crying all the way to the bank, because it ain't in the low rent district by any means.

Funny. He ended up being mentioned on the Larrivee Guitar Forum this week and it was not pretty. Somebody posted this and I was LMYAO:
