Matt Dee, Axeecutive Officer
My first guitar? A red BC Rich Warlock with the white tribal design. It doesn't get anymore hardcore than that... The best part of the story? When the guitar came in the mail the box showed a black guitar so my mom wouldn't let me open it until my dad got home.
- Favorite Guitar Brand: ESP
- Favorite Band: Whitechapel
- Skills on The Guitar: Yikes
- How Did You Get Into Guitar: Guitar Hero - smoked all of the other kids in the neighborhood
Kristen Dee, The Boss
Does K play guitar? No. Has K learned the different brands we carry and their differences? Yes. Will she suggest a guitar for you based on looks? Absolutely. Best salesperson on the floor.
- Favorite Guitar Brand: ESP
- Favorite Band: Airborne Toxic Event
- Skills on The Guitar: Even more yikes
- How Did You Get Into Guitar: She didn't
Aaron Balentine, Fretboard Whisperer
When I was 10, my dad told me that he had once owned a sick Roland keytar in the 80s. When I asked — dismayed that it was no longer mine to inherit — why he got rid of it, he responded: “because I didn’t think my kid would be a giant dork.” So, I got a Dakota Red Strat instead. Most important lesson he ever taught me.

- Favorite Song to Test Guitars To: Round and Round. Just ask Matt, he loves it every time.
Rockdale, Chief Barketing Officer
Rocky, our Chief Barketing Officer, is responsible for quality-controlling every riff with a well-timed head tilt. He specializes in sniffing out bad tone, guarding the pick jar, and occasionally howling along to solos. If you drop a string, he will claim it as his.
- Favorite Guitar Brand: Paw Reed Smith
- Favorite Band: Bark Sabbath
- Skills on The Guitar: Lightning-fast paw-muting
- How Did You Get Into Guitar: Legend has it, Rocky got into guitar the day he accidentally knocked over a Strat, heard the strings ring out, and thought it was a giant squirrel screaming.
Cooper, Puplick Relations Manager
Cooper, our Puplick Relations Manager, is the official greeter, door guard, and snack enthusiast. He’s constantly sniffing out new customers, making sure they feel right at home—and he’s not afraid to jump into the mix if a jam session turns too quiet. He’s got the energy of a dog with a tennis ball and the focus of one who’s just discovered peanut butter.
- Favorite Guitar Brand: Barkson
- Favorite Band: The Fur Fighters
- Skills on The Guitar: Paw-assisted power chords & shredding with pure excitement
- How Did You Get Into Guitar: Cooper first got into guitar after witnessing a solo and realizing it was the closest thing to a squeaky toy he could shred. He now spends his days “paw-licking” up and coming riffs.

— Jeff S., Alpena, MILegator Ninja N6FX
Overall great customer service and very friendly demeanor from Matt and Kristen at Drop Dee. Guitar matched its description perfectly and included everything as listed. Great setup out of the box and I can already tell this will be my main guitar from here on out! Do NOT hesitate to shop with the fine folks as they’re incredibly helpful, and very very friendly! Thanks for the Custom Shop Strat!
— Joshua T., Bluefield, WVFender Custom Shop 57 Stratocaster Relic
I must say, I've had enough of mass sellers like SweetWater with their extra fees for everything that should be included as part of a guitar sale. Drop Dee Guitars exceeded my expectations by far with my order, ensuring that my instrument was a joy to play straight out of the box. I eagerly anticipate future business with this store. They are truly a shining star! Excellent communication throughout the pre-sale and after-sale as well. Thank you!
