Members Pedaltones Posted May 25, 2012 Members Share Posted May 25, 2012 Anyone here have had dealings with them? Amenable to giving discounts over the web? Thinking of ordering a guitar from them and wondering has anyone else ordered from afar and what was your experience like? They seem pretty reputable with a huge selection. Share your experience pretty please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Loobs Posted May 25, 2012 Members Share Posted May 25, 2012 I'm pretty decent mates with John, the owner. He's only ever been very courteous, fair, and does a killer deal, especially in person. One of the best stores in the country and lovely to deal with.

Members Pedaltones Posted May 25, 2012 Author Members Share Posted May 25, 2012 Thanks. Is John pretty active in the day-to-day with customers or can the employees negotiate too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Loobs Posted May 25, 2012 Members Share Posted May 25, 2012 Very much so I imagine. It's been a couple of years since I've bought a guitar from him, but I call him from time to time, and my Uncle (who until recently) lived round the corner has bought some guitars from him too. He's always on the shop floor dealing with customers. To my knowledge it's probably him who does the most deals, so to speak. Give them a call. What are you interested in?

Members Pedaltones Posted May 25, 2012 Author Members Share Posted May 25, 2012 I'm looking at a Guthrie Govan Suhr Modern but I've to sell a couple of my guitars first. There's no Suhr dealer in Ireland so I've to look abroad. The price difference between Peach and thomann is about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Loobs Posted May 25, 2012 Members Share Posted May 25, 2012 Word. I know John'll do you the best price he can. He's more interested in developing relationships with customers/being competitive than taking the piss with his prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
