    Derek Senestraro ... I have sent a couple folk his way with good results ... besides, he sends me candy with every purchase (but I am sure they all do .. nice touch though)

    Andy Rice has been awesome to me. He's a bass player too, and he got me a sweet deal on the Mesa cab and even cut the shipping cost in half for me. And then there's the candy... :)

    +1 for Derek. He's gone above and beyond expectations every time.

    And Sweetwater's shipping department has always packed things properly, which has not been my experience with their biggest competitors.

    A co-worker of mine has nothing but great things to say about Andy Rice. He's purchased a bunch of gear via Andy.

    Thanks guys! I've never been anything but impressed with Sweetwater so any of these recommendations would be great, but I guess I'd better go with the actual forum responder, Andy! ;)

    Email incoming.

    I like Sweetwater...
    I used Steve Ptak I think only once because I get better deals elsewhere unfortunately but I always gave Steve the 1st shot.

    Now I call RMC audiodirect for my PA & got a great deal... forgot to even give Sweetwater a chance.

    BTW RedhotFuzz... probably not the right section to post but the guys here are cool to answer anyway

    Yeah, I went over the forum listing and didn't see an area that seemed more "appropriate" for this question. :confused:

    Then again, I posted a question regarding string recommendations for a Gretsch Junior Jet in the Basses section not realizing there is a dedicated forum for strings. Rookie mistake. :help:

    If places like Musician's Friend (among others) simply forward you the boxed product as received from the manufacturer, why does anyone buy from them?

    I bought a Taylor GS Mini from Sweetwater last year and knowing it would be hand-inspected in-house before shipping to me gave me some valuable peace of mind. Nobody wants to deal with the return of a bum piece of equipment shipped by the manufacturer (see the other thread on this forum regarding the flawed finish on the brand new Rickenbacker).
