Would like to thank Jeff and all at World Guitars for an outstanding experience on Mon. The PRS Custom 24 I purchased is One of the best guitars I’ve owned (and thats quite a few). The service given in the shop is first class. the quality of the stock is amazing,I’d recomend to all. Looking forward to my next visit.

Thanks again.

“Wow!!!! Just want to say what a fantastic service from these guys. spotted what I wanted late Sunday night and thought I would just send a quick email to enquire.. Quick as a flash Jeff was back to me providing the information I requested, plus more. (does this guy ever sleep?) To cut a long story short I had my fantastic PRS 25th anniversary swamp ash special by Wed morning and rocking with it Wed night thank to these guys. The most wonderful customer service a “proper guitar store” run by human beings not machines. This is my first experience but I know I will be back many more times. WORLD CLASS CUSTOMER SERVICE. Thank you to Jeff and his team for the most wonderful and easy buying experience. CHEERS!!!! J :-))” - John Green, UK

O M G

It’s already here Jeff!!!

And what can I say?

It’s unbelievably awesome!

I’m so glad I went with the Artist V, the inlays and the ebony board are so beautiful. The color is absolutely beautiful. Awesome feel to the neck.

Setup is spot on, arrived here in tune!

I have not had the chance to plug it in yet, but the first dry runs unplugged already had me sold.

I’m more than happy with the guitar.Thank you so much for your help and especially for your great service and the lightning-fast delivery!

I’ll come back to you for sure for my next PRS guitar-wich won’t be far down the road.I’m looking for a popping color or fade finish next, so if you get a cool stoptail non-singlecut Artist package guitar in,or something comparable, it will be mine.

Thanks again and kind regards,

Thanks for looking after me so well yesterday. It was the best guitar buying experience possible. Topped off by the chocolate biscuit.The Custom 24 is the best guitar I’ve ever owned, which unfortunately means it could be a while before I need another axe, but those Matchless amps are very tempting, so I may be back soon.

“Hi Jeff,thank you very much for perfect setup and delivery.The Prs I`ve bought had an irresistible price and all your promises has been kept. I`m really very happy with this guitar!I hope you will hear from me again because your fantastic web site is a “dreamland” for every guitarist!Best regards – tante grazie!” - Christof, Italy

“A super-duper shop run by very knowledgeable guys Jeff and Mark. Not only do they sell great guitars and amps BUT they can also sort out your old guitars too. I gave them my old Gibson 335 which was in a sorry state. I collected it today and it’s AMAZING! New 6105 frets, original pickups reinstalled and a new nut AND a lump taken out of the neck. This is like the equivalent of Simon Cowells numerous face lifts EXCEPT my guitar repair is more successful, looks better and sounds better and even talks more sense!Thank YOU!!” - Jon, UK

Hi Jeff

Just a short note to thank you for a thoroughly enjoyable experience in buying my PRS 513 last month. Its rare to find a shop with such a professional yet personal atmosphere and your encyclopaedic knowledge of your products is nothing short of remarkable and inspires tremendous confidence in spending a not inconsiderable amount of money. The guitar, of course, is a beautiful piece and plays like a dream, exactly as you said it would. But it doesn’t end there - anyone reading this should know that I also brought you my eight month old Fender Custom Shop Telecaster which cost a fortune, but has never been right since arriving from the California. However, it took you five minutes to get it on top form and it now plays beautifully. You succeeded where the Custom Shop failed and such was the transformation that it almost feels as though I got two guitars from you for the price of one!

I can’t understand why anyone in the market for a high-end guitar would not make WG their first and probably only call. Thanks again, Jeff - I’ll be down with my trusty old PRS Custom 22 Artist for you to fettle in a few weeks and no doubt will be buying more in the future.

Best,

” - Bill, UK

Hi Jeff,

Arrived safe and sound today - fantastically well packed, I might just tolex those boxes and call it a flight case!

Anyway, plugged it all in and fired it up with my Firebird with P90s, ZVex Double Rock and Fulltone OCD plugged in the front: Oh my word!! I can’t believe the volume and - especially - low end coming out of that tiny cab! It’s simply incredible. Beautiful, bold, warm, loud, bell-like clean tones up well beyond the kind of volume I tend to gig at which is absolutely perfect: always nice to know you have a little in reserve! With the pedals engaged it was absolutely brutal: I will have no trouble being heard with this!

The power scaling was also perfect for sitting in the amps own overdrive sweet-spot at a variety of volumes: all of which were really far too loud for my home but produced a huge grin on my face.

Very, very happy with the amp and the speedy deliver and friendly service - thank you very much!

Cheers,

” - Neil, UK

Hi Jeff,

I just want to let you know that the Beauty arrived in best conditions and she’s really exciting!

Have a look at the picture - she’s now in best companion with the beautiful Private Stock SC58 I bought a few month ago at WG!(And they are not just hanging on the wall - I play them ;-) - it’s amazing!)

Thank you very much and have a great christmas and a happy new year!

Thanks again,

” - Oliver, Germany
20121217

Jeff, Larry has arrived looking beautifully angry. You were right, I’m delighted, it’s totally gorgeous. I was a bit nervous about the colour as you can never be quite sure when looking at photos online, but I should have known that yours are professionally done and fully represent the real life hues.

I haven’t plugged him in yet though as he needs to warm up a bit after his journey but the acoustic sound alone has me salivating!

Anyway, just to say thanks you for a wonderful setup and overall service. Sometime next year I hope to have enough saved for a 10-top 513 or perhaps even a private stock (wishful thinking) so all being well we’ll do some more business.

Again, a very big thank you!

All the best,

” - Kevin, UK

“Hi Mark/JeffThanks 1000,000 for taking the time to set up my Taylor 814ce recently, fantastic service and the guitar plays superbly now. My colleague (Gary Scott) and I were blown away with the welcome and amazing service and look forward to doing business with you JBest Wishes” - Pete Eden, UK

“Hi Jeff,Just a few lines to say thanks for your time today with selection of my PRS Studio. It was my first time at WG and hopefully won’t be my last as I’ll definitely take up the set up offer. Trouble is, as I said whilst chatting to you, I’m like a kid in a sweet shop when it comes to guitars so I think Sue will definitely be tagging along so that I don’t go saying again “oh this is the last one—promise”!!! Anyway just a wonderfull guitar and super set up, the first PRS I have owned having always been a Fender man in the past but I’m just blown away by the sound of this instrument.Thanks once again.” - Paul Fleetwood, UK
20121027

I just wanted to thank you for your friendly and helpful service when I recently bought my PRS P22 Experience 2012 Limited. The guitar was perfectly set up and has played beautifully ever since - I couldn’t be happier with it. The selection of stock and level of service at World Guitars really is second to none. Highly recommended! Clive - UK

Hi Jeff,

Thank you for today, enjoyed my visit (first!!!) and I was very impressed with your shop, the set up, display, customer care, time given and overall service …… cheers!

Will need a different excuse to visit next time, can’t use the “got lost” one again!

Kind regards

“Hi JeffIt’s absolutely the best instrument I have played. Looks amazing and the overall quality is obvious. There’s a great tone from all 5 positions with plenty of variation. The bridge pick up is a monster through my Blackstar HT-5. Your setting up of the guitar was, as promised, superb.I also have a Les Paul and a 20 year old Ibanez RG 560. The custom 24 can do the job of both of those but better. If the Les Paul wasn’t a wedding present then I would be trading it in for a Tremonti.I can see me wanting more PRS instruments in future. Just need to keep Mrs Jones happy enough to allow me to buy them!Many thanks” - Darren, UK
