Raven West Guitars: My Experience

[tr4252]

I bought a couple guitars from them 10 - 15 years ago; a PRS hollow body clone and a Les Paul Jr. shaped 12 string. Good guitars but I never played them in public due to their semi-counterfeit nature. I do remember that their website seemed a little off, glossy but not quite professional, if you know what I mean. The girlie pictures were appreciated but seemed a bit out of place. I dealt with Eric too. He seemed OK, but then I didn't have any complaints.

It looked at the time that they had a good thing going, but I was never surprised that they declined the way they did. Are they still doing business?

That’s from way back in 2004; long before this thread was created. His son took it over.

The old man killed himself, apparently.

Yeah.
But all links are inactive.
Maybe they didn't survive the virus shutdown.
