Hi Grant. You have no idea who I am but I was some schmuck that came into your (old location?) store and bought a D28 for my 40th. That was almost 20 years ago and as I have moved round the world I finally decided to take formal lessons rather than rest on my “lyin eyes” “streets of London laurels”! Currently in South africa but I remember when you served me and I had NO idea what to look for in an acoustic – you said “see which one you like” – but as I didn’t play, I had no clue! Please keep that same patience and gentle guidance that served me well all these years ago and never get too too serious. Good luck with the store. My sincere best wishes!
I received the Baby Collins on 24, October 2016 in good condition. The guitar fully meets my expectations. I couldn’t’ be happier! Smooth transaction, good packaging and prompt service. Thank you!
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.
I love your store. You were my first dealer outside the US back in 1987, when I started THD. The 12th Fret has always been one of my favorite guitar stores in the world.
I really like what you’ve done with the website and newsletter posting. Please keep these things coming. Another reason why The Twelfth Fret is just about the finest ‘go to’ place for all of us guitarists, and those who pursue other fretted instruments.
