PEDAL DOWN, SWEETWATER RESCUE I had a Headrush pedal that malfunctioned. I contacted Sweetwater after contacting Headrush. I still have not gotten a single reply from Headrush (been almost 3 months now). Joshua Bortner of Sweetwater's support team took care of me and got me up and running in my studio again within days. You can't get better service than at Sweetwater....... Bruce Brewer

Always pleased with this company I am 71 with arthritis and do not play very much and therefore do not order many things. The things that I do order are always shipped very promptly and their prices are about the same as any other REPUTABLE company. Their sale prices are always good. I have never had a problem with any purchase and am not aware of how their customer service is. It would be nice if they would include a receipt with the order.

Amazing customer service!! May of 2022 I bought a 14 channel powered mixer from Sweetwater. It was a great purchase and it has worked perfectly for me to mic my drum kit. However, earlier this month the left output just suddenly stopped working. I inspected cables but couldn't find the problem. So, I called my sales engineer (Ian Lemberg) to see what could be done. He hooked me up with an equipment technician who guided me in troubleshooting the problem. In the end, he said it was in the mixer and said since it was still under warranty they were going to FedEx a replacement right away. And...not to worry about sending the broke one back. In just a few days the new one arrived and I was back up and running!! Wow!! I just can't believe the level of customer service from Sweetwater. A special thumbs up goes to my sales engineer (Ian Lemberg) and the equipment technicians. All my music equipment needs will first go to Sweetwater!! Also, Sweetwater will assign a sales engineer to you on your first purchase. This sales engineer will follow up with you on your purchase and all other future purchases. These sales reps are very helpful! They will call and talk to you about the equipment you bought, help with questions you may have about other equipment needs and will get to know you personally and don't hesitate to to discuss anything about your musical journey or anything else. It's a completely unexpected feature from this company!!

I've been a customer for decades. Never again. I recently purchased an Empirical Labs EL-9 from Sweetwater. After very clearly specifying where I wanted this not-exactly-cheap unit shipped -- and despite having a shipping address on file I've been using for about 5 years -- somehow, SWS still sent this to the wrong place. I didn't find this out until the tracking info revealed the destination city. In a frantic effort to stop this from being delivered, I contacted my sales engineer -- no response. Then I reached out to SWS through the website's contact form. Here are the highlights from the response I finally got: "Sorry about the incorrect address. Probably the best way that you’d be able to get the package rerouted would be to contact FedEx about the order yourself," And if the delivery "occurs"... "The best course of action at [this] point would be to go to the address to recover the package if that’s possible." I finally CC'd this thread to the Director of Customer Experience, at which point SWS finally took the initiative to fix this and re-ship it. Never heard a peep after this point. I'm done here -- Sweetwater has lost a customer. P.S., I attempted to leave this on their own site, but they seem to filter negative reviews from product profiles. Explains a few things... P.P.S., I guess they now ignore negative reviews elsewhere as well.

Great company Great company! Only ordered a set of children’s rhythm sticks for about $3 and still received a call from company “thanking me for my order!” Who does that anymore. I have spread the word! Buy USA and Springwater co! Timely shipping and tracking.
