Excellent shop - very good service

I bought a used guitar that had to be shipped and the team was very helpful and quite quick to respond. Overall I am very satisfied with the purchase, and the help and support I got. One very very small comment I would have is it would be nice to get an e-mail when the item is shipped out, as I did not get any notification nor a response from the shop for 3 days, and finally 1 day before delivery I got a message from UPS that the guitar will arrive the next day. The shipping was fast and I am really happy so this really a minor thing.

Great customer service!

I wanted to order a guitar on their website but I had several questions.
I was able to contact them by email and Whatsapp and they quickly answered all my questions.
I was worried because the guitar had no case but it was shipped fast and bulletproof packed.
It was also perfectly setup to my preferences.
Thank you!

Very good professional service

Very good professional service. Arranged a zoom demonstration as I was not able to go to the store because of Covid. Very helpful staff and the guitar arrived 2 days later. Very well packaged in 2/3 boxes and bubblewrap. Guitar was even better than it came across on Zoom.

Great experience, from start to finish

My first review on Trustpilot but an important one as I really would like to emphasize how great my whole online experience with Max Guitar was. From the beginning (first Emails about the guitar I was looking for) to the (perfect, fast and safe) delivery of my dream guitar. Everything was nice and professionell, the contact was always really friendly. Will definitely visit Max Guitar in the future again, as soon as my equipment has to be expanded :)

Excellent and trustworthy service

I ordered 2 x D'Angelico guitars for delivery to the UK after an exchange of messages and phonecalls about the customs and VAT charges etc. The guitars arrived safely and were not only exactly as described, but actually better! In fact I couldn't be happier with the instruments, and the friendly attentive and courteous service provided.

I have never written a review before

I have never written a review before! This time it’s necessary, cause Robbert and his team did a great job supporting me with my Two Rock Amp … and that was definitely more that you could expect. Thanks a lot!!!

All around great experience

Was shopping around for a new Telecaster, so I paid a visit to Max Guitar's retail store in Scheveningen.
Staff is helpful and unhurried, got to try out a large selection of guitars and left with the one I liked best and a matching beautiful case. They gave me a good deal on a trade-in guitar as well.
Couldn't be happier with their service!

Great repair service!

After having an electronic issue with my ES335 I went to the store an hour before closing time expecting to drop the guitar off for a repair and unexpectedly the guy from the repair staff fixed it directly and I got a working guitar back within 30 minutes.

Awesome experience with the guys at Max

First experience with the guys at Max Guitar and it was a real pleasure. I asked for a guitar model and they sent me high quality pictures of their available items in stock for me to choose from. They reserve the one I wanted at no cost. Communication was very fast and extremely friendly. They provided honest advice and delivered as promised: Shipped the day of purchase. Arrived as expected. Awesome awesome! They are now my number 1 music instrument shop. Thanks!!

The customer support is great

Their customer support is great: the response time is crazy short, even on Sundays; answers are direct and useful; delivery time is good; shipment prices are reasonable... In short, really good service.

The guitar I bought is, of course, impecable.

I would certainly do business with Max Guitars again.

Friendly, skillful and fast

My 14-year old son brought in his guitar today; he got a VIP-treatment by one of the friendly and skillful staff-members. Turned out my son ruined the internal wire of the input jack, and it was repaired while we spent some time in the shop; looking at and trying some of the amazing guitars. We left the shop with a fixed guitar and a my son had the sure feeling he was seen and treated as a serious musician.
