GBAs an amateur who only builds one… As an amateur who only builds one guitar at a time (and slowly at that) I often place multiple small orders in the course of a month or two. The service I receive, especially the free shipping as a StewMac member, is outstanding and greatly appreciated.

GBExcellent CA types Fast shipping, really good price as well! I have tested the tinted CA 20min thin (amber and Dark brown). Excellent result, will make small repairs so much easier. Refined and low out-gassing resin is also appreciated.

GBUnmatched Customer Service and Warranty As with each time I've had the opportunity to challenge StewMac with a complicated situation, they blew me away with their customer service and product warranty. As always, very impressed and pleased with the result. There was a slight hiccup with shipping, but sometimes things happen.

GBI purchased a baritone ukulele kit and… I purchased a baritone ukulele kit and it is a quality kit and I was doing well on the build until I managed to break my fretboard while sanding a little too vigorously and one of StewMacs excellent customer service folks was able to come up with the parts I need to finish the instrument and for the cost of shipping. I've been using stewmac off and on for 25 years and I will continue to use them for quality parts and kits. I'm super excited about getting going on this again and finishing real soon!

GBFIRST RATE COMPANY! This is a general review of my business dealings with StewMac. I've bought a lot of tools and materials from them over the last few years (well over $5k) and have never had a bad experience with them. On the rare times there were issues on an order, they ALWAYS responded quickly and in a positive, professional manner. Their customer service personnel are knowledgeable and very friendly - it's like shopping at a home town store. I live in Alaska, but my orders arrive in VERY good time and are well packed. Are there cheaper places to shop? I'm sure there are for some things, but overall, the quality product, free shipping for members, and helpful, competent staff outweigh the differences. The other big plus to doing business with StewMac is the reference material available, from the tool instruction articles to Shop Tips and Dan Erlewine's informative, fun videos. A great customer experience all around!
