I bought their most expensive strings

I bought their most expensive strings, the pack was missing the Low E and A. This has never happen in 50 years of playing multiple stringed instruments. They responded with "Expect 2 sets soon. The singles are made to order items, so they will ship at a latter date. My apologies for that.." George - Consumer Support Specialist. Thanks for Neil!

Love their strings and prices. They fit my playing style and budget. Great customer service too. String broke while installing and they are quickly replacing it for me.

Great Customer Service

I bought two packs of nylons that had faulty treble strings. I reached out to see if I could get the problematic strings replaced.

Not only did they replace the faulty strings to complete the sets I’d already bought, but also sent 3 entire new sets along with it.

George was very quick to resolve the issue and obviously went way above and beyond. I’m very impressed with D’Addario’s customer service!

Low expectations and brilliant outcome

I wrote to D'Addario to enquire about the quality of Pro Mark drumsticks I bought on line from a reseller. I was totally blown away by the experience - prompt responses ,helpfulness and willingness to seek and achieve customer satisfaction. My enquiry had no underlying motive other than to understand why my product experience was poor. Steve on support has organised a replacement product for me .....not expected as by my own admission ... I chose to buy 'blind' online rather than my normal approach over the counter ....so you know what you are getting. Thanks Steve on Support and D'Addario for listening and working with me - the customer. Brilliant experience of putting the customer first ! :-)

Banjo strings

I ordered a pack of strings for my first banjo. Never touched a string instrument before so was going in blind. Strings sound exactly how I expected them to. I broke one of the strings during the restring (old ones were terrible), I reached out asking if I could buy a single and they sent me several replacements for free! I will be exclusively buying supplies from these guys. Made my account now so I can take advantage of the points system.

Great customer service for big and little things…

Most of my guitars have D’Addario strings and humidipaks! Customer service delivery is awesome and Steve goes the extra mile… even for a missing little part for a capo!. It’s always a bonus day when I get to use my player points too.😁👍🏽

Strings and health issues

Hy Guys,

I've been interested in Strings without Nickel die to health issues and asked the Support for an advice, which Strings i could use.

Within no time George replied to my Mail and took a Lot of E-Mails to ensure that I Pick the right Strings. Furthermore he came Up with the Idea to Check my frets, because they could contain Nickel as well. So, he did more than I expected. Really nice.

Thank you George :)

The headstock tuner I purchased for my banjo wouldn't power on. Checking the battery proved it was low voltage. Replacing the battery didn't change things. Reaching out to Customer Service looking for suggestions of things I might have overlooked, I was informed that although 7 years old and out of warranty they would as a courtesy replace it. Who does that anymore? Needless to say when I need musical accessories, D'Addario is the choice.

Incredible Customer Service

Had an odd and unusual issue with a pair of ProMark sticks. I thought I'd report it as it might help to ID a possible quality control problem. Within 45 minutes, Steve from Customer service reached out and requested some additional info. and offered to send me a replacement pair. Yeah... it's only a pair of drumsticks, but D'Addario listened and took care of me. A pleasant surprise in today's world. That's why I'm a lifelong customer across their drum and guitar product lines. Thank you Steve, and thank you D'Addario!

Talked to Steve in Customer Service and he was great. I have been away from drumming for about 20 years but had played drums for over 25 years in my earlier years. Steve took the time and went over some other ProMark options that might work for me with I really appreciated. Customers service reps like Steve will keep me coming back for more ProMark sticks.

Excellent as standard

Exceptional service from start to resolution from Hailey, everything was done in a timely manner regardless of the time difference (UK to USA) and helpful at all times.

I've been using D'addario strings for the past 20+ years and each time the service has been great and I'm glad to say the streak continues.

It's always nice to know that a company like this doesn't just rely on its brand and appears to invest in its customer service.
