Perusing the online inventory of the Grand Guitar Salon, I saw just what I was looking for – a lightly used Daryl Perry concert model. (A new one was a little beyond my budget). I sent an inquiry and immediately received a phone call from Paul Jabrayan. Paul proved to be knowledgeable and passionate about classical guitars, and his attention to my particular wishes gave me the impression that his goal was not simply to sell me a guitar, but to ensure that the guitar in question would meet my expectations. He made me an excellent offer, at a price I could afford. Shipping was prompt. When the guitar arrived I wasn’t blown away by the sound like I had expected to be. Paul encouraged me to give it a few days, let it acclimate, try different strings, have someone else play it and hear their reaction. I did just as he recommended, and after three days the guitar was everything I had hoped it would be. I’m still not entirely clear about what happened over those three days, but Paul’s advice and confidence in the instrument were spot on. I am absolutely pleased with my guitar, and with my experience with the Grand Guitar Salon. I recommend the Grand Guitar Salon without hesitation.
