Yesterday, I received the following comment on my rating system page:
Hey , I just purchased a SAINT GUITAR COMPANY “bechmark” model From MESA/Boogie Hollywood. It is by far the nicest custom instument I’ve ever Played . Y’all should check them out. The only reveiws I’ve seen for these is on harmony central.Any who . . check em out .
At first, I thought it was spam, but wanted to be fair and do some research first before I marked the comment as spam. So I called the Mesa Boogie store in Hollywood to see if they carried the guitars, and they confirmed that they did, but only sold them on consignment. The sales guy did say the guitars both played and sounded awesome, so that was encouraging and piqued my interest even more. Then I read the reviews on Harmony Central. Every review just raved about how playable and sweet sound the guitars play, which made me a little leary because it’s entirely possible that they could’ve been planted. I did find the company’s web site, but it’s so new that a lot of stuff doesn’t work on it. I also left a message for what appears to be the founder of the Saint Guitar Company – hopefully he’ll call me back.
It has been a long time since I’ve heard of any truly new guitar brand; I mean, this brand came out of the blue for me! It’ll be interesting, to say the least, to get the low-down on these guitars.
BTW, if you have any other information on the Saint Guitar Company, please let me know!!! 🙂
Hey, Whatsup? I saw this comment while browsing on guitar gear. I saw Saint Guitar Companys booth at the winter namm show. They were right next to caparisson? guitars.
