My experience was 110% positive. Really there was nothing better that could have been done. I received all of the appropriate confirmations/notifications regarding the status of my order, and I was personally called afterwards to check that I received my shipment. The shipping was fast and efficient and Mike was extremely courteous, professional, and helpful. Thank you very much

Even ordering something as simple as a pair of headphones, Mike Conyers was a great help. He told me about the products that matched my budget as if I were his top customer. Mike displayed amazing proficiency and knowledge, not only on the technical aspect but also on each specific product. I appreciate his help and honesty and will definitely go through Sweetwater for all my audio needs!

Since changing to Sweetwater, I have found their service--both before and after the sale--to be superior to all others. Mike always helps me select the right equipment, gets me the best price, and ships it promptly. I had the misfortune of purchasing a new Privia keyboard from one of your competitors a year ago and then it stopped working after only 2 months. They were no help at all. I spent 3 days talking to them and the manufacturer and was no closer to finding a solution than when I started. So, I called Sweetwater service department and they said "Send it to us." Long story, short, they fixed it--under warranty--and all it cost me was minimal shipping.They could have easily refused to help, but they didn't. Sweetwater helped me out of what seemed like a hopeless situation--AND MADE A CUSTOMER FOR LIFE in the process. Thank you for being who you are and for doing what you do.

I don’t know how or where to begin. Mike Conyers has been a beacon of hope and guidance while navigating the modern day dilemma of finding the right piece of gear in an overwhelmingly massive sea of options. I really love talking with Mike. He feels like an old friend that understands all of my random requests, questions and quirks. He’s always a pleasure to talk to because I know he’s invested in my happiness and satisfaction while never making me feel badly for not understanding something or for the plethora of questions I have. Mike was so excited when he got his Harmony Silhouette that it was infectious. I did my research and ordered one for myself. I am so happy that I did! I love this new guitar so much, especially knowing that Mike has the same one! I can’t wait for my next purchase with Mike!
