GBExcellent quality tools… Stewmac makes awesome tools for building guitars. The only suggestion I have is PRINTING a catalog with a telephone number for people like me who hate the internet. I am not the only person who has requested a printed catalog. It is beyond annoying that I have to order over the internet. If there ever is a guitar tool and parts supplier that will sell me stuff over the phone, I will take my business there. Stewmac does a great job, however guitar building existed long before stupid computers.

GBThe best tools and guitar parts for the money. I have ordered different products from… I have ordered different products from StewMac and different orders through out the last few years. I have always been satisfied with their products and their speedy ship out time. I also like their DYI/ 'how to' videos. I really enjoy being able to use their tools and products to upgrade my guitars and in turn make them more enjoyable to play.

GBAppreciate the quality and Service of… Appreciate the quality and Service of StewMac over the years. Recently bought a pricy (for me) bridge pins for my Martin. Bone with MoP inlay. One had a defect in it and I let SM know. They immediately sent another set of six to make it right.

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!
