Our Recent Correspondents: Joe, The Gibson (TG-50) arrived at my office yesterday. It sounds fantastic and the setup and intonation are perfect. I'm very happy with this purchase. John Woodard Jr., Louisville KY
Hi Joe, Thanks for your expert help selling my ES-330. The process was effortless on my part and went without a hitch. I heartily recommend Archtop.com to anyone who wants to sell their instrument. You priced it so that it quickly sold, yet was more than I expected. The small amount of work you did on the instrument enhanced its value and increased its appeal for a very reasonable cost. The photos and description on your site showed the guitar at its best. It was definitely a pleasure dealing with you. Best regards, Steve Ogden, Seattle
Hey there, Joe, Thought I'd drop a line to thank you again for finding a new home for my much beloved Epi Deluxe. You made the whole transaction simple and pleasant. Have and will continue to refer friends and clients to your site. Yours, David Magliari, Long Beach, CA
Hi Joe, Once again I am amazed.  Whether buying or selling an archtop there is simply no one else who can provide your level of expertise and service to your customers. You remove all of the stress which can be significant and make each transaction enjoyable. Thanks again, Steve Wagner, FineArchtops.com
