Lou, Thank you for all of your help, it truly helped expodite my purchase. The guitar that came in is in perfect condition and plays absolutely beautiful. 10/10, this purchase could not have been at a better time to go into my school year with for my jazz classes. Thanks a bunch, Ryan

Dear Lou: Thanks. I like this guitar a lot. I’m sure you’re getting tired of this old line, but I’ve got to deliver it anyway (with a variation)………I was able to put the guitar down, eventually! I spoke with you on the phone about 5 years ago. We discussed the dimensions and qualities of a […]

This is about the left handed D’Angelico EX-DC that you sent me a few weeks ago. Wow, this is such a nice guitar! I have been blessed with the gift of having really nice guitars, and I have to tell you, this guitar is very special. I have played a lot of high-end guitars (especially […]

Lou: First off, I love the guitar. Acoustically it sounds great. In some ways I wish it were a little bit louder. That clearly tells me that removing the sound post was an excellent idea. The action on the guitar is incredibly fast and easy to play. It is incredible how this style of guitar […]

I’ve been meaning to email you earlier, but have been pretty busy…Playing that Jazz 16! I can’t put it down- Wow, it’s like nothing I’ve played before and I’ve played almost everything for last 35 years. I’m not a Jazz player per se, but a generalist and play many styles of music. I don’t know […]

Another fabulous guitar. This is one of the nicest archtops that I have ever played! The amplified tone is outstanding. The acoustic tone is clear and round. What can I say? Thank you Lou! You are the best! -Peter

Lou, I want to let you know how much I love my new Monarch 16 sunburst guitar with Humbucker pickups. I have owned several jazz guitars over the last 40 years, and the Monarch 16 Sunburst with humbucker pick ups is the best. None of them have matched the quality or tone of this one. […]

Lou, Just wanted to thank you again for your patience and help. The Jazz 16 is a great guitar, fell in love with it when I opened the case. That love was reinforced when I played it. Plays smooth, easy on the fingers. I would get hand fatigue on my other guitars, not this one. […]

Louis, I got the guitar today. Awesome! I love it. This guitar plays and sounds BETTER than a laminate Buscarino I had a few years back, which cost more than three times I paid for this guitar. Sincerely, Timothy T.

Lou, I just wanted to thank you for helping me to choose the coolest, best sounding amp I have owned. I was a die hard tube guy playing low wattage Fenders (Princetons, Champs etc), but after receiving my JazzKat Tomkat I’m a convert. This amp sounds more tube-like than my tube amps… Fat tone, very […]

Vince and Lou, Thanks so much for all your help and patience this afternoon. I was not sure where I wanted to go, arch top wise, but when you led me to the Eastman El Rey we found a perfect match! I’ve been playing all afternoon and it sounds amazing through my gear. I also […]

Hi Lou, The guitar is fantistic with such a rich and clear tone, i have had an Eastmam 810CE for a few years which is great but the pure acoustic tone of the Palen is the best i have ever heard. Regards, Andy C.
