Hi Pete, just a quick thank you for my gretsch 6120 dsw peter,it arived safe and is great, this is my second purchase of yourself and the service is first class, many thanks again

"The Gretsch model we wanted was out of stock, but The Guitar Grotto were able to source one for us. This took a little over a week to arrive: the Grotto kept us informed of the guitar's progress through Customs, checked and set up the guitar on arrival, and sent it out to us for next day delivery. It arrived well-packaged, with all the appropriate Gretsch guarantees, and so well set up by Peter that Alex, who repairs and sets up guitars professionally, couldn't find a thing to fettle. It was in the studio that evening, earning its keep! It was a delight from start to finish to deal with The Guitar Grotto and we shall definitely be giving them first call when next looking for a classic guitar. Definitely no more trudging down to Denmark Street! Highly recommended."

Pete's service is absolutely first class, and I honestly cannot find fault. He definitely cares for his customers, and he is a joy and a privilege to speak to on the phone, very knowledgable and importantly, with the amount of money you may be parting with, extremely reassuring.

I am not sure if I would be in the position to buy another Gretsch guitar (I have wondered about the Amber coloured 6120), but, if I did , I would ONLY go to Pete!

Thank-you so much for all your trust, consideration, patience, advice, and I sincerely wish you all the very best…

Hi Pete,
 
The bass came yesterday afternoon. Thank you very much for all of your help. I'm over the moon with it! Here's a testimony
 
"I've wanted a Gretsch Broadkaster for years but have been deterred by the high price tag. The Guitar Grotto has proovided me with what is now my dream bass at an incredible price. I have not put it down yet and I am seriously looking forward to gigging and recording with it!"

Hi Pete,

I was just about to write you that the guitar has made its way to Germany safely. My fingers are sore from playing – I just cannot put it down! It sounds fantastic and it feels great. Since I play acoustics a lot the shape of that huge body really appeals to me.

Thanks for checking up on me and again thanks for that great guitar.

Pete,

I got the guitar yesterday evening – I love it. It's really light weight, and the Bigsby is tremendous – I will play this guitar for years to come. Thanks for all your clear communication & for such a great price – all the best for the future.

Regards

Rob.

Hi Pete,

The guitar arrived today, thank you for the prompt delivery. I am very impressed with the overall finish, although this is first impressions as it has only just arrived, but I see no reason why this will not transfer into a permanent assessment.

I would also like to remark on the way this instrument was packaged. I have bought several guitars through the post. None have been packed as well as the Gretsch.

Looking forward, I am interested in a Fender Telecaster – G E Smith model. Would you be interested in quoting me a price for one of these guitars?

Regards

John

Hi Pete,

Just to let you know, that the guitar arrived this morning at my office. What a looker !!!!! No photo on the internet can do justice to the colour and finish of this instrument when you slowly open the case….

Thank you for doing such a brilliant job of packing it safely. Now – I’m looking forward to playing it for the first time tonight at rehearsals.

Don’t be surprised if you see my order for another Gretsch guitar sometime in the future – maybe a solidbody – who knows? :o )))) Wish you a Happy and Prosperous New Year.

Kindest regards,

Henning Frank Jensen

Hi Pete,

I got the guitar yesterday. It's looks and sounds great.

Cheers

Pete

The guitar arrived this morning in perfect condition and IT IS BEAUTIFUL!

I am waiting her to settle down a bit and then I will change the strings to .11 set. Factory default is ok, but they are a tad slinky to me and the way I play.

Thanks again for Your service.

Cheers,

Petri

Pete

Cheers
