Hi Jim The Taylor arrived this afternoon, and I nervously opened the case to find a little beauty! I'm over the moon with the purchase, it's beautifully made and has just the kind of bright sound that I like, just sounds fantastic, makes it sound as though I can actually play! Thanks again for all your help and efforts it's been much appreciated.
Best wishes Michael

Hi Jim, Just want to let you know I am thoroughly enjoying my 410. Thanks for providing me a great guitar at a great price. Very Sincerely,
Jim H

I met Jim from Guitar Rodeo through ebay and as a result I contacted him at his toll free number in Minneapolis, MN. We agreed on a price for the purchase of a beautiful brand new Taylor 614ce guitar which had not been listed with ebay. I paid him and the guitar was shipped the same day. It arrived here in ten days later in PERFECT condition. I am a retired Canadian Mountie and cautious as to whom I deal with on the internet regarding money transactions. Jim's integrity, honesty and professionalism were evident through his emails and telephone conversations. A great guy to deal with! If I ever get to Minneapolis I will definitely be dropping by.

The 414ce arrived Tuesday as scheduled. My son is thrilled and you were right -- it's a beauty. We really appreciate the service you provided. At first there was a part of me that felt your offer was almost too good to be true, but you delivered and now my son has a guitar that could satisfy him for a lifetime. Thanks again.

Hello Jim: I already got my dream guitar and so happy to have her. I also registered on line at Taylor guitar website and rated you as an excellent dealer. Thank you so and God bless.

Jim just thought you should know. I received the guitar last Friday. (9/9) There are no words to describe how happy I truly am. I think back 3 months to that phone conversation we had and think of it as my "lucky day". By the way, I must have misplaced the card that was inside the case with the name of the strings on it. Can you tell me the name of the string Company? (I know they're light gauge) Better yet. If you have them, send me 6 packs and bill my credit card. (I'm in no hurry). Thanks again.

OH MY GOSH!!! THIS IS THE GREATEST GUITAR EVER!!!!I took it out of the box plug it directly into the pa and did a little eq'ing and lead worship for a hour last night, it was HUGE sounding. Can you quote me a price on a 12 string 300 and 400 series? Thanks so much Jim, I look forward to buying more guitars off you in the future and anyone and everyone I can send to you. God bless!

Hi Jim-Just in case you didn't get my phone message, I just wanted you to know that the guitar arrived safe and sound, and I am more than pleased with it, as well as the price and service that you delivered. I hope to do business with you in the future! Thanks again,

Hi Jim, My Taylor 314ce arrived today, Thursday Dec. 15th. It arrived in great condition, I tuned it up and thought I'd play it for a few minutes after I got home from work. It was there waiting for me after the ups delivery. The only problem was that a few minutes turned into an hour and a half, as the sun was setting on this brisk December afternoon. This guitar wants to sing. The sustain, the balance, the tone... it's great. Thanks for sending it. I don't want to put it down. In fact, I want to play it more even now writing about it. I just had to send you a note. Thanks also for the Damp-it, strings, and strap. Also, the XLR cord was a delight to receive. I wasn't expecting that. I need to get a TRS phone plug adaptor for the matching input. I'll look locally for it. Thanks again, from a happy picker...

Hi Jim, Just wanted to let you know that I have registered my new 810. What a sweet, sweet, sweet guitar! Absolutely the best guitar I have ever owned and I have owned two Martins. I love the look, the sound, the way it talks to me. To anyone thinking of purchasing a guitar on the internet for the best quality and cost, I have but one suggestion. You only have to make one contact and that is with Jim at Guitar Rodeo. Looking forward to purchasing a new 914ce just as soon as I can get the funds, and by the way, I won't be trading in this beauty. Thanks Jim, best regards to fellow player. David

I wanted to let you know what a great experience I had buying my Taylor guitar from Jim at Guitar Rodeo. Service and price were outstanding. After a couple of weeks I decided my GA8 was a bit too bright, and I really wanted a GA7. Jim was great about taking the GA8 back in on trade for the GA7. For anyone in the market for a guitar, I highly recommend you check out Guitar Rodeo. I’ve been playing, buying and selling guitars for 30+ years. Jim is my 1st stop for all my future guitar needs.

I do know what to do sir. I'll keep you posted. Thanks so much for being a pleasant, honest business person to deal with. I can't tell you how much I've appreciated dealing with you. Rest assured I'm trying to funnel any guitar customers I know directly to you. The 426 is so awesome, what a gorgeous, sweet sounding guitar. I had no idea how much it would sing during a good strumming. Take care and God bless, Jim.
