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!

Myself and some of my mates have developed a charitable organization in Toronto called Guitars for Kids Toronto. We provide new and previously loved guitars to underprivileged kids in Toronto through Big Brothers and Sisters. I was looking for a “drop-off” depot in the east-end, where guitar donations could be left for pick-up.
If you have been to 12th Fret, you would know that they do not have much room for stocking additional gear – especially not for sale gear!
Because 12th Fret saw the value in community support…they graciously signed up to become a drop-off centre and have helped to promote GfK Toronto through their newsletters, web pages and social outlets!
Special thanks to Vicki, Grant, Brian and the team for your continued support!

Just wanted to let you know that my Banjo arrived today. I am glad I paid the extra and got the Artisan. It is beautiful and the sound is awesome like I knew it would be. Thanks again and if i find anyone in need of a banjo I will send them your way for sure.

Brian – the guitar is home! No problems, it took a long time to leave Canada (strikes I presume), but then it was fast, no problems with customs agencies and all. It’s really a great guitar, exactly what I was expecting, it suits perfectly to my playing.
Thanks!

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!

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.
