It is here now and is beautiful and plays like a dream!
Mike, I just wanted to let you know that the Thunderbird arrived safely just now. It got stuck in customs in Chicago for a couple of days (the post office told me that it always happens that way with everything that comes from abroad) but eventually got on its way again. Anyway, it is here now and is beautiful and plays like a dream. It sounds great through my amp, and not surprisingly, sounds just like my 1976 Thunderbird. I was delighted at how light it is too.
Now that I’ve had it for 24 hours all I can say is WOW!
Now that I’ve had it (Manzer 1980) for 24 hours all I can say is WOW! I took it in to my local L&M to order a new case for it and the guys were literally lined up to see and try it out. Also some patrons came over hearing there was a Linda Manzer in the store. Anyway, I do not regret the investment. Out of the 14 hours of ownership…. I’ve played for at least 10 and showed it off for 2. I think my Taylor 914ce will be looking for a new home. No comparison.
Setup is great. The sound is great. I’m a happy guy!
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 guitar came safe and sound. With that case I don’t know why it wouldn’t! You were right, it is a gem. It seems like it hasn’t been played much. Hardly a mark on it. I know it is 26 years old. Do you think it will open up more, being a spruce top and all? Anyhow, I’d like to thank you Grant for your high level of expertise and professionalism. I am very pleased with this guitar!
I was one of the lucky winners of your Christmas photo-contest giveaway. I’d like to express my thanks! I’ve purchased two instruments from you guys, had lots of set-up work done; am delighted with your service, expertise and advice.
