I came to Twelfth Fret with an all original 1967 Gretsch Chet Atkins Tennessean which I had purchased online. The guitar was barely playable, would not tune and was just a very expensive disappointment. After a consultation with Scott, he came up with a plan to see if this guitar could be brought back to life. After great communication, Scott put his skillful hand to work and gave me back one of the greatest guitars I have ever played!
I went from totally disappointed with this guitar, to it being one of my favorites. I don’t know how Scott did it, but unbelievable. Great communication throughout the process, incredibly skillful work, and most of all just a real desire on Scott’s behalf to bring this thing back to life as best he could. I went from having totally given up, to very boastful to own this guitar. Completely blown away.

Absolutely no hesitation bringing any future projections to Scott and the rest of the staff. Thank you so much!

Hi, Just want to say “thank you” to Brian and friends for making my purchase a wonderful experience, from pointing out the guitar that suits my needs at the moment, to accessories.

I recently took a 60’s era DelVecchio resonated guitar in to your repair shop. Dave Hill did all the work (I believe?) It took about 8 months as the neck had to be straightened (steamed) several times and re-planed. Plus re-fretted and some other small things. I paid and took my instrument home.

I have neglected letting you know how ecstatic I am about the level of the repair and the end result. The guitar is extremely playable and responsive. It tunes better than it ever has and the tone is unbelievable! I couldn’t be happier. It was expensive, but it’s plain to anyone that this is a superior repair and the workmanship is first rate. You get what you pay for and I don’t mind spending the money for your excellence.

Thank you Dave! A million times! I’m a very happy camper and a loyal Twelfth Fret customer. Forever.

The guitar arrived safe and sound yesterday morning and I’ve been playing the heck out of it.   What a joy!  Thank you Nevin for the great packing job!  PS:   Grant-when I’m in T.O. I’ll drop by and cover the $4.80, or buy you a latte!

Finally picked up the banjo from Fedex last night. Looks and sounds great .  Thanks for the setup!  My wife loves it!  She would play a bit, hug the banjo giggling, play some more, hug banjo and giggle some more, repeat  …   A big hit (:

Just a quick note to say you guys do a great job, and I wish I were closer to you. Kansas is a long way away. Great job on the tips you provide for players. Spot on info, well said. I wanted to thank you for doing this, as it’s a great service to all of us. Take care and keep up the great work!
