People often write
to tell us about their
Pittsburgh Guitars Experience. Here's a sampling....

Carl –
She’s a beauty and sounds great – I couldn’t be happier. I spent the better part of last night channeling George Harrison and Small Faces-era Steve Marriott (not to mention pissing off my neighbors). I’m going to put her through her paces “stock”, but can’t help but think that some Guitar Fetish FilterTrons would make her a heck of a poor-man’s Country Gent.
Thanks again for a great buying experience – I’ll definitely bookmark your site.
Best,
Patrick |

Hi Carl,
UPS delivered the guitar a little after 5 I have been playing it ever since I unpacked it!! I Love it, I love the ebony neck on it...
I'm not doing a thing to it , only playing it and changing the strings when they need it!!
I love it, Great doing business with you, I will pass the word that Pittsburgh Guitars is the place to buy your next guitar from and I look forward to doing business with you again in the future.
Thanks and always ..Rock On!!

Thank you for the excellent pack/ship
on the Epiphone Scroll 550. I am completely satisfied with this
purchase and transaction. I wish there was some way to adequately
communicate how happy I am with everything- but I can't. Absolutely
sterling in all aspects.
Thank you,
Michael |

Hi All,
Just a note to say I received the Galaxie guitar and bass yesterday. I bought them without ever playing either. The sales person who helped me provided all the info I had. He was very patient and helpful. The instruments were even better than he described and I am very very happy with both. They are a great value for the buck!
Thank you for the transaction.
Happy Holidays,
Carmen |

I
visited Pittsburgh Guitars with three of my friends a week ago
. . . My friends were visiting from the Czech Republic. Vlada
is a musician and has a band in his country...quite popular in
the Czech Republic! I on the contrary am not a musician and so
I went on line to try and find a shop to take him to visit. Your
web site came up and proved to be the most navigable and friendly!
We found the shop and some
easy parking and quickly met Sam and another fellow . . . who
were extremely helpful and kind and made our experience an absolute
delight!
My friends continued to
comment long after our departure that the guys at Pittsburgh
Guitars were great!
Thought you would want
to know! You have a great group of people working for/with you!
Congratulations!
With very kind regards,
Peg

Carl,
Just a note to say what
a great experience I had dealing with Pittsburgh Guitars, again.
Everyone was great. Plus, I got a great little amp (the VOX AC4TVH
and cab ) at a great price. Well done. Someone even dollied it
for me to the Holiday Inn, where i was staying.
I look forward to my next
visit, and will do my best to spread the good word about Pittsburgh
Guitars.
Thanks again,
Thom

Just want to let you all know that
the Martin I had built through Pittsburgh Guitars and Martin
far exceeds any expectations I had envisioned. It's unbelievable,
both in sound and easy of playing. It has volume, quality of
sound and inner harmonics I have never heard in my playing ,
the fingering more is like an electric guitar...unimaginable...
Thanks for all your help,
it was well worth it. What a joy.

I've
been meaning to tell you, I think Betsy does a great job with
the Web site. I can't get into the shop these days as much as
I would like to, so I hit the Web site. The last three guitars
I've bought from you all came off the Web site --'88 Jerry Donahue
Tele, 90s Gibson Chet Atkins, and G&L jazz bass. Another
thing: all three of these guitars were set up so welll by Scott
that they are getting an unfair amount of playing time. My Martins
are jealous. One more thing: looking over the last 30 years of
working with you, I didn't think you would ever find another
person who would fit into the fabric of the shop the way you,
Scott, Mark and Betsy have. But you did with John. He's great.
Congratulations on 30 years of business.

Carl,
RIC arrived today....have never seen such a professional packing job...ever!!!! Ricky is Gorgeous!!! Great transitioning of the 'burst....beautiful color..pics don't do it justice! I love it!!!
Thanks,
Michael |

Hey thanks ...
Just goes to say that dealing with another brick and mortor place DOES have it's advantage.
FYI, I sell auto parts at a locally owned store and never shop at Wal Mart and really like dealing with other, professional salespersons....
Take care,
Preston
(by the way, your web site is full of cool stuff) |

Got
it-it's GREAT.
You guys also set it up PERFECTLY-just like the one that I recorded
with a month ago that made me have to have one.
They guys in my group like
it too-I play a tele mostly, and they welcomed the change.
Thanks for everything

hey carl!
just wanted to say thanks yet again for holding the jaguar, sounds absolutely amazing. whether it's just straight into my little blues junior, or blaring through an ampeg v4 with a crowther hotcake, it just breathes like nothing i've ever played before. usually with a new guitar it takes me a couple weeks to really warm up to it, but not so with the jaguar. instant gratification, i couldn't be happier!

Carl,
Put some Jensen speakers
from 1960 into the huge Fender Cabinet I got last week, it matches
my 68 Bassman, and sounds TERRIFIC!!! Thanks to Pittsburgh Guitars
for always having COOL STUFF at BARGAIN PRICES!

The guitar is AWESOME!!!
It's perfect, exactly as
you described it. It plays beautifully. I'm totally thrilled.
I promise to give it a good home, treat it well, and take it
for a regular walk.
Best regards,
Kevin

I just wanted to let you know that
the American Telecaster I ordered on Tuesday night was delivered
yesterday. I wanted to thank you and your staff for the great
job done in handling my order and getting it out so quickly.
I don't normally buy guitars that I can't lay my hands on first,
but am glad that I did this time. I am very critical about the
neck and fret work and can say that this tele is among the very
best production guitars I've gotten my hands on in my 20+ years
of playing. I put on a new set of strings and dialed in the action
to my preference and it felt just like an old friend. You guys
are top notch and make me wish we had a Pittsburgh Guitars in
Delaware that I could shop at. I also appreciate the extra polishing
cloth, key ring and the picks with the faces are a hoot!
Thanks!

I received my Hofner Club CT Series. It arrived in pristine condition and I must say I like it a lot. I thank you for going the extra mile and checking out the delay at the Post Office. The inclusion of the Hofner teacup knobs was an added plus. A competitor of yours charges 42 bucks to put them on. All I can say is THANK YOU. You will be hearing from me again.

You guys did a great job fixing the crack in the
back of my Fender acoustic. I had a feeling you'd be good to
deal with when you let me come in at closing time and browse
for a while.
Thanks a lot. It' was a
scary time. :)

Got the Strat home and just love it. The bass is nice too. I'm much more of a bass rookie but I can tell it's a fine instrument and I know it will be lots of fun and is definitely a keeper. Thanks for putting the deal together.
You and your guys are the best. I can't imagine going anywhere else.
Thanks again----Jim

Just note to let you know that my Hofner Club arrived yesterday - it is beautiful, plays great, and sounds even better!!! Thanks so much for shipping it so well.
I will be letting my guitar friends know about my guitar and your great service. I think one of them will be interested in obtaining one himself. It was a long wait, but well worth it.
Best,
Terry |

Do
you have feedback for us? |
...and
about the Big Beatle Shows....
|

Hi
Carl,
My family attended the
Beatles show last night and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. It
was a great night of not only good music but tremendous fun.
Thanks for putting it together. I am very jealous of all those
eBay millionaires you made last night. My daughter and I hope
to perform at the next event.
Please place me on your
mailing list. Thanks and I hope to meet you at the store soon
Sincerely,
Paul

Carl, John, Scott, Tim, Betsy, keyboard guy and

Thank you for your support musicianship.

Thanks
to everyone at Pittsburgh Guitars for putting on the Big Beatles
Show #4 and for letting us participate. We had a great time,
both performing and watching the other acts.
We really appreciate all
the work that you folks did. I'm sure it was a huge effort. Changing
acts went really smoothly and the sound and lighting was great.
It was also really nice to see (and use) all the vintage equipment.
Thanks again!
|

Hey
everybody,
We want to thank you all for your help; I think our two tunes
went over
pretty well.
I would describe all of your musicianship (in the words of Tom
Waits) as "Levicticously Deuteronomous." (That is a
compliment, by the way.)
Let's do it again sometime!

I just want to say thanks for putting on
the Beatle Fest 5. We really enjoy participating in this event.
We had a great time and I hope you enjoyed our songs.
