SHOP FEATURE

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!

Grant, many thanks. I’m glad my lefty Huss & Dalton Crossroads went to  a good home. It served me well.   Thank-you for such wonderful service. Periodically, I turn-over a guitar and I will definitely use The Twelfth Fret for my future consignments.

Hello Grant. Just want to let you know that my banjolele arrived on Monday afternoon, so the postal strike didn’t hold it up too long. I’m delighted with the quality craftsmanship of the instrument and I was right that the shorter fingerboard is much easier for my 81 year old hands! So, here’s a shot of me with it in my studio with my dog Dusty laying beside me. Now just to harden up my fingertips and loosen up my finger joints! (Dusty loves it too!)
Thanks for everything.

Best. John.

The Southern Jumbo arrived late yesterday, and I let it warm up overnight before opening the case this morning. It’s in great shape, and sounds fine, as advertised!  It was worth the wait. I appreciate all your assistance with this purchase, and thank you for the careful packing!

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.

“Good news, received the Guild Starfire III today.  Exceptionally pleased with the instrument and the condition of the case. Absolutely beautiful setup on the guitar. Can’t fault it in any way.  Have enclosed one of our posters for you to have a look at. We are professional players of 20 years or so. Thanks to you and your staff for your assistance! ” – Trevor Miners (& Margaret Barrat BACKTRAKKIN’)
