- Make any adjustments to the bridge/tremolo system so it’s in the proper position for tuning stability

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.

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!
