Bought from them several times, no issues. They’re a Godsend for lefties!

They told me they buy complete new guitars from fender and break them down. I bought a new Johnny Marr Jaguar loaded body and the neck that goes with it and saved $400 off new retail. Best playing guitar I've got.

For the most part that seems to be the case, but some have claimed that guitars they have sold on Ebay have ended up on their site/listings.

Trogly managed to get a Gibson "Billy Joe" husk a month before dealers were to expect their first shipments. His feeling is that they hit up the Gibson rep at Summer NAMM and said "Hey, do you want to haul all of this stock back to Memphis, or let us haul it off for $xxx,xxx?"

It's no secret that Matthew and Christine buy guitars from a variety of sources -- some new, some used. And their stock of parts is not limited to MIA stuff. I've purchased loaded MIM pickguards and complete MIJ neck assemblies from their E-store, in addition to premium US components.
