I'm always blown away at how well Sweetwater does customer service! Can't say enough at how great it is knowing that a company actually cares about their customers, and are willing to go above and beyond to make sure every transaction is 100 % fantastic! Nich, my sales engineer, has been so great. He's helped my son and I create the guitar set up we always wanted. And has been quick to answer any questions or concerns we've had.

Nich listened to what my needs and wants were, and came up with excellent suggestions for the equipment I should consider. He was very helpful and knowledgeable. Nich was not pushy, and gave me time to consider and research his recommendations. When I called back to place my order, he again asked if I had any questions. I am so very pleased with my purchase, and would not hesitate to call Nich for guidance on a purchase the future.
