Is Accugroove gone?

Sign in to disble this ad
Does anyone know with certainty that Accugroove has closed their doors? I was interested in a MiniGroove Stack but there's no response to contacts and I've emailed a couple of dealers who haven't responded either.

I was trying to find that out as well.

Jay at NJ Guitar & Bass Center said he has made several attempts to contact Accugroove and has not had any luck recently.

I'm under the impression that the owner has some health issues he's dealing with and has curtailed production until further notice, but if there's someone here with more info than that, I'd be interested to know what's going on with that company.

They sure are nice cabs....

Mark has be unreachable by several people including myself.
I don't want to speculate or start rumors, but with Mark being a believer I will lift him in prayer.
GH Services in Canada posted this statement on their website concerning Accugroove.

AccuGroove Cabinets

GH Services is the exclusive Canadian AccuGroove Dealer. We provide competitive pricing on AccuGroove products in Canada and the United States. AccuGroove cabinets are hand-made in Cupertino, California, U.S.A.

GH Services is located in the Niagara Region of Canada, near Toronto and the Canada-U.S. border. Owner Greg Holmes is a long-time bass player and studio musician, ready and able to help you with any questions you have. More about GH Services here.

Notice: Due to personal issues, Mark Wright of AccuGroove has stopped production of AccuGroove cabinets.
We hope that it is only temporary, since we would like to see more of these great cabinets.

We are wishing Mark the best and hoping to see him back soon. Praying for you Mark.

Believer or not, the least Mark can do is let his loyal and faithful customers know what the state of his business is in. If he's too sick to run his company, and wants/needs to take a break, fine... He runs the risk of ruining his business/reputation more by his lack of a statement, than by being silent...

His Facebook site shows recent posts, and lots of pictures of his hikes through nearby forests/hiking trails. That doesn't look like someone who is of ill-health to me.... Maybe he's retired, and thinks his business is being run by the CEO in charge - I don't know, but being silent regarding his business is just plain stupid to me.... he needs to let people know what's up, especially since it's been more than two weeks since these types of questions were raised....

I was thinking the same thing... I just hope Mark doesn't take 11 months to tell us what's going on....

I have had no luck either. I have been endorsed by Accugroove for many years... I hope all is well... They are truly great cabinets!
