Customer Service
Pros:
"All of the team there are kind and very helpful."
"But the customer service is what really makes this place special. Everyone was ACES!"
"Staff were nothing but helpful, particularly Scott who was helpful with any and all queries or requests we had."
"Luke in the customer service team was super useful, happy to respond to all of my questions and I really appreciated the high quality customer service."
"I received 5* total customer care from Sean, Customer Services Manager at Peach."
"The customer service and advice is top notch especially the owner (old chap with a beard)."
"Connor and all the guys from Peach Guitars are the perfect example of customer service."
Cons:
"Made me feel worthless, and as if my small purchase was insignificant."
"I was virtually ignored... I was hoping for more enthusiastic help and someone drawing on a large knowledge bank, but kept having to prize the info out of him."
"I found his attitude disgusting and comments unprofessional and disrespectful."
"In my opinion they own me 150 pounds, but they preferred keep the money, lose a customer and obtain this bad review."
"I walked out of the store embarrassed and confused and wondering what actually happened there."
"So I'll tell you what I wish someone had told me: Don't order from Peach online. Or at least, don't expect good quality control or any customer service."
"Made returning the item as difficult as possible kept threatening to charge me the return postage."
Product Quality
Pros:
"I have bought 2 £2000+ guitars from here and they are both excellent examples."
"The selection of guitars is incredible (which is especially rare for us lefties!) and the shop looks fantastic inside."
"An amazing display of guitars priced from £100 to £10,000 and all the accessories you could need."
"Loving the Faith Legacy Neptune guitar I picked up today at Peach."
"The bass was very well set up on arrival. I'm used to doing my own set up when receiving a bass, but no intonation or truss rod adjustment needed."
"They set up the guitar perfectly and delivered within a few days."
"Both guitars had been set up beautifully and intonation spot on!"
Cons:
"I have never been wowed at the guitars I had received, poorly set up, etc."
"Sold me an American ultra telecaster that was substandard."
"I paid nearly £3000 for a guitar and the strings were rusty and old."
"Sharp fret ends, scratchy/tarnished and oxidised? Black basically on their ends and across some of their lengths."
"I bought from Peach online and they foisted a defective guitar on me and refused to pay return shipping."
"I was sold a guitar which had a part incorrectly fitted, and because of this, it would not stay in tune properly."
"The guitar I traded for had overspray from neck lacquer on the frets, which I had to polish myself."
Shopping Experience
Pros:
"Fantastic service. I've purchased both online and in person at the store."
"Every guitar player's paradise! Very professional staff!"
"I've never seen so many guitars under one roof!"
"Highly recommended, great selection of just about any guitar you can think of, friendly and knowledgeable staff."
"Superb selection of guitars, amps and gear for all budgets."
"Absolutely brilliant!! The best guitar buying experience our own room to try the guitar's out."
"Fantastic range of products with very competitive prices."
Cons:
"Would be five stars, but the amount of bass guitars was disappointing compared to the six strings."
"Is it commonplace to sell 6 year old guitars as new stock?"
"Would never ever use again. The worst guitar firm I have ever known and then some."
"I chose not to give Peach my hard earned money."
"Edit: Not just me either. I just read through their Google reviews and quickly found other people with similar stories."
"The shipping was a absolute nightmare, I would hope they don't use DHL to Canada in the future."
"Had to chase to get any confirmation that guitar had been received by them 6 days after they had signed for it."
