Grant, thanks the great service, guitar should be arriving in Barbados first week in June…. cant wait!

Mike,  thanks for all your help! The setup is great. The sound is great. I’m a happy guy! Your service & follow up was excellent &  appreciated.  Good people like Mike are usually hard to find!

The banjo stork dropped off the baby safe and sound. A couple thousand miles of travel, pulled it out of the case and I barely needed to tune it.  Unbelievable instrument.  Can pick high and soft, or low and push the pedal to the metal…solid and in tune. Returns whatever you throw at it with cristal clear tonality.
Set up, strap, string gage, bridge height, neck profile….all perfect. Can’t think of one thing I would change.
Thanks for all your work on this Grant. I couldn’t be happier.

Anne,  I received my new Rickard Maple Ridge banjo last night and I absolutely love it. It is beautiful and in very nice condition. Also, it sounds amazing and it is much easier to play than what I was currently using. Feels like the neck is a bit wider, which is great. Thanks for helping me make my decision.

I want to send you this happy mail and thank you for your help and patience. The Saratoga is ringing and plinging and has accepted me as her user. My fingerpicking is improving and I am happy in every way. 

Next year I will buy a  good open back banjo and I mean to buy it from you. I don’t find the Saratoga to be ideal for claw hammer so we must look into the matter. Maybe a fine  top end instrument already used and treated with songs? Greetings from Norway!

Thanks Gord Barry for you wonderful work on my 1974 Martin D35! It wasn’t in bad shape to begin with but I decided since it was 45 years old it should have that inevitable neck reset. It’s like I have a whole new guitar: it is more responsive, has better volume and tone and all the notes coming out of it are more articulate than ever, just like you said it would be. Even my old and half-deaf bandmates have noticed the difference.
I am in love again!
Thanks so much.
