Anybody buy from Easton Guitars

[lifejet80]

It's not a good idea to post quoted prices as the deal can lose his dealership due to this

Don't post prices.
That's what got Matt in trouble.
More that a couple guys here have bought from K.E.
He does advertise here you know....

Re: Anybody buy from Easton Guitars

Did anyone notice he has this listed:

Jackson Custom Shop Becker Dinky Special Run, 20 pcs will be made. Proceeds go to Jason and to ALS research. Call for more info. Early orders are advised.

I thought they weren't going to build it?

Re: Anybody buy from Easton Guitars

Indeed, posting prices is no good. MAP is a constant.
I always thro the list price out and then MF "low price guarantee"
than ask to call or email for special pricing...

its hard enough to get buyers for high end guitars and then on top to stay competitive and not break MAP and loose your dealership...


As far as Easton goes.. I hate to help out a fellow Jackson USA dealer, esp in TX, but he is a good guy to work with.

Cheers

Kevin Easton WAS pretty much the PR side of Jackson when he worked there.

He was as much of Jackson Guitars as Dave Mustaine ever was, IMO.

Kevin = \m/

I don't see how anyone could ever question his integrety or knowledge of Jacksons. He is THE MAN.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Special dealer run of them. Just like the Bullseye re-issue. (plus I'm sure Kev still has a few contacts in the CS)

If you haven't checked KEvin's price on the Becker...do it. Not only is it a smokin' deal, but the proceeds go to Jason & ALS research.
For those that don't know - the guitar is a tribute to JASON BECKER not Ted Danson. [img]graemlins/images/icons/tongue.gif[/img]

Re: Anybody buy from Easton Guitars

I've met Kevin Easton in person, great guy and his prices are great. He has parts that NO ONE else has! He was very helpful to me, it was good to see a guy that can do repairs that doesn't laugh when he sees a Jackson. The local guys around here think all guitars are crap unless it's a Gibson or Fender.

Re: Anybody buy from Easton Guitars

I was able to work with Kevin most of last year. You will not find a more stand-up no-bulls**t dealer out there. Just don't ever watch him work on guitars... that's scary. "See, the thing about refrets is you have to be kind of careful... hand me that 20 pound sledge there... *WHAM*" [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Don't hesitate to do business with him.

I bought a Kahler APM3310 bridge from Kevin, and highly recommend doing business with him. Nice guy.

Kevin Easton is great to deal with! I only bought a hardshell case, but he was
as respectful as if I were buying a nice
guitar, and very VERY fast on shipping!!
I recommend him for anything you need!

Re: Anybody buy from Easton Guitars

I purchased my bloody WR1 from Kev and have a Blue Ghost Flame DK1 on the way. I highly recommend him. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Re: Anybody buy from Easton Guitars

Yes I bought that raspberry burst dk1 and he was great to deal with and was the lowest price. He even gave me his home phone in case I needed to get a hold of him. How's that for customer service!!! Highly Recommended.
