Testimonials From Our Customers

"I love this website. Competitive prices, good selection, I have spent a lot of money here, and I know my musician friends do as well. I was going to hold out for a used Rickenbacker bass on EBay, but the MF sale price of $1399 brought me back, and kept me off EBay. Keep up the good work. "

"I am writing to thank you for your fast delivery and quality of products that you have sent me. I recently received my order and was very pleased with the product and speedy delivery. I hope to do business with you in the future."
-- Thank you, Dave Hutchison

"Good job on having customer reviews. I've been holding back awhile on deciding which new synth to buy. I know which products I'll be ordering soon. Seeing another individual comment's makes all the difference when you don't get a chance to see the product in person and have your own hands on to play with. I'm $1500 short of saving up for a new synthesizer, digital mixer and digital recorder, but going through the reviews has given me a little more confidence and self assurance if I'm buying the right product without wasting my time and having to cough up more money to get it return and pay a restocking fee."
-- Smith

"I just wanted to say that this is a phenomenal site. I am a blind web user and the site and information on it are wonderfully easily accessible to my screenreader, the articles and tech tips have given me the information that i have been looking for and has given me the knowledge to tune and care for my vintage set of rogers drums that i needed. I am an extreme novice in the drum world and had many questions,this website has answered all of them right down to the kind of cleaner I should use for my cymbals. Thank you for the time you have put in to this site, it is appreciated."

"Thanks for continuing to send the e-mail newsletter and catalogs! I've been lax and leary of opening e-mail for a while due to the prevalence of bugs and viruses floating about, just wanted to drop you a line to let you know that I, (45 year old drummer in a working rockband) and my son (14 year old budding guitarist/bassist) are still alive and rockin and appreciate what you are doing! We try to do our part to spread the word about your great service! My band's bassist bought a "Hartke" amp from you, and it really pumps!"
-- Fat Roy "Havoc" rock & roll band

"I want to thank you for my Gibson les paul classic. Everyone loves it when we perform in our town. Thanks to you our lives are changed because we got our equipment from you. We wouldn't sound so good if it wasn't for your outstanding prices on expensive stuff. Our first CD is being crafted with Guitars, Pedals, Drums, Strings, Sticks, and Picks from your company. THANKS MUSICIAN'S FRIEND!"
-- Lewis

"Just wanted to send along a little e-mail to tell you that I think your site is very nicely done. I placed an order last Friday and went to the site to check on the status and found it had been shipped. Because I was able to use your direct link to online package tracking via UPS, I discovered that I (out of bad habit) put the wrong city name on my shipping address (a fact I overlooked when I got the order copy via e-mail). I've been able to contact UPS to find out how to get it straightened out. If it hadn't been for your "soup-to-nuts" approach to online ordering, I'd have been searching for the package not knowing it was being misrouted due to my own mistake. Thanks! Keep up the good work! (Especially for us airheads who can't correctly put our own address in the order!)"
-- Margaret Cronan

"I just got your news article, and saw that you have the VS 1680 on sale right now- Well, I'm just here to say that the price you have it at is more than reasonable, for the awesome power of the VS 1680! I purchased my own about 3 weeks ago, for $2,500 (that included one FX card), and I am totally amazed at what this all-in-one machine can do! It's gonna save me BIG bucks in the end, because of all the studio time I'm not going to be paying for. And if people wonder about the quality or professionalism of this all-in-one home unit, well, I've been recording for over 6 years, and the VS 1680 does everything I've ever been exposed to!"
-- Jordan Olsen

"Just wanted to drop a note and say how much I appreciate you! I play 3-4 gigs a week and play "upbeat acoustic" with a band and duo, I break about 2-3 strings a night at gigs and at $12.00 a package for Martin Marquis it adds up! Last month, I got 30 sets of strings from you on sale at $2.99 a package. God I love you all! Delivery was prompt, packaging was great, price was unbelievable!"
-- Sunday Driver ("upbeat original,contemporary and classic acoustic music")

-- Craig Dickinson, MI

"you guys kick ass! i've bought a fat strat and an amp and they kick ass! and the prices's were low! thank you very much!"

"Dear Musicians' Friend I just want to say how much I admire you because I have a little garage band trying to get on their feet, and not a lot of money at all I bought a [guitar] at my local music store for 400 dollars before I heard about you from one of my friends, I was soooo mad I could have got the same guitar for about 230 dollars less than what I got it for. For Chirstmas I 'm (well my parents) are ordering a Marshall 30 wat amp and a Zoom 505 Multi effects pedal for me and yall make it soo much easier on the wallet than local music stores. Thank You sooo much for being there for people like us."
-- Justin, Bobby, Chip, Eric (our band)

-- Kelly J. Sallaz

"First of all I want to thank you for the great catalogs, and the super customer service. Next I want to tell you how pleased I am with my surprise Christmas Gift. My wife, Marilyn, saw how much I was wanting the Rogue Viola Bass,(VB100), the one that is just like Paul McCartney's. I have played guitar for over 35 years, and never had my own bass. I started playing bass just recently and love it, so I have been talking abouut this bass guitar for weeks. On Christmas morning, my wife said, oops I forgot 1 package, then ran to vring it in. It was the bass. I was flabergasted. I opened the box, and there was the hard shell case with the guitar in it. I played it all day. I LOVE IT! It was all set up, and there was a little check list. I was very impressed. You don't get that kind of service at a music store when you are there in person. My wife told me that when she was ordering it, the lady was not only very helpful, but a real pleasure to talk to. Again, your service is outstanding. I cannot tell you how please we are with the guitar, but also with the service that you provide. You make ordering a breeze! Every order I have made with you has been the same. Thank you for your service, support and fine products. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. P.S. I am going to tell all my musician friends about you, and have copies of your catalog to them . Keep up the great work!"
-- John E. Commins, North Jacksonville, FL

"I have been receiving your catalog for a couple of years and I wanted to say that y'all are doing a great job over there. Every time I think that it can't get any better, it does. You manage to keep a wide variety of great products as well as add new ones each time! Thank you for supplying us with the best."
-- Another Guitar Player, Josh Reagan

"The other day I ran accross a catalog/book from about 1976 which is a catalog from your early years... You are certainly adaptive . I am now a musicion with a CD out thanks in part to the reading and influence of that catalog. Thanks."
-- Jim Piel

"Your web site is awesome! It's so nice to be able to hear how something sounds before ordering it. My decision to get the zoom 505 pedal was finalized after checking out the demo."
-- Tom

"...First let me say the web site is fantastic. I've been looking for a processor for about a year now. I really found the wave files for the Zoom 506 helpful."
-- Steve Steele

"I just received my Rogue RP150 the day before yesterday. To be honest, I didn't get my hopes up too high when I ordered it... As a certified luthier and a former employee of Hamer Guitars (I was their CNC coordinator/Specialist and Woodshop final inspector from 92 - 96) I saw some of the best instruments this world has ever been graced with. So you can understand my skepticism. I've never ordered a guitar through the mail and I wasn't sure what I'd receive, but the catalog pics really grabbed my eye. I was almost planning on returning it as soon as I opened the box. Boy was I surprised! The guitar is beautiful! With the exception of some minor finish flaws, the obvious cost cutting steps of not completely polishing the frets and the inexpensive electronic components, this guitar is a true winner. It makes me wonder if I should have stepped up my order to one of the more expensive models. It played great out of the box and sounded fantastic plugged in. This guitar is BANG for the buck exemplified. I know you have yourselves a winner."
-- Patrick Barela, El Paso, Texas

"Thanks for the July Newsletter via e-mail, lots of good stuff to check out! I usually use your web site to keep up with items that I'm looking for."

"I agonized over my decision to buy a guitar through the mail. In fact, as I was placing the order, I still couldn't believe I was going through with it. However, my Epiphone Sheraton II showed up at my door in record time, well-prepped and looking terrific. Kudos to Musician's Friend for achieving the 3 R's (the right product at the right time and the right price) and to Epiphone for developing a truly fine instrument at a price that won't lead to a divorce!"
-- Steve Isaacson, Eau Claire, Wisconsin

"Greetings from Cincinnati! About an hour ago I received my Epiphone Sheraton II. I expected to get a 'Blem' since that is what I ordered this past saturday(8/16). It turns out the blem Sheraton was gone, so you folks sold me a 'regular' at the blem price. All I wanted to say was thank you so much! You have a friend in Cincinnati. Thanks again!"
-- Jeff Cutright

"Just made my way to your website and figured I'd take the time to write to say Thanks, I havent ordered anything in a while and I still recive your great catalouges I stare at them till I burn out my retinas! Just wanted to say thanks for "THE BEST PRICES", "GREAT SERVICE", and presenting nothing but quality goods! I ordered some select humbuckers a year or two ago and they were here in a matter of days and in perfect shape! Maybe next time I'll get that Marshall I've been drooling over! Thanks alot."
