Consummate professionals, the guitar was shipped more […]

Andy C. Palen

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.

Candido D. Monarch 16

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

Lou X. Rivera Jazz Suprema 15

Lou, I have been looking for an amplifier that would just amplify my archtops and not color the sound. Playing for 40+ years I have finally found it, a Rivera Jazz Suprema 15! Thanks so much for your recommendation. Whether playing my L5 or my Benedetto, the sound coming from this amp actually sounds like […]

Thomas J. Rivera Jazz Suprema 15

Hello Lou, The Rivera Jazz Suprema 15 is a 10 out of 10 in all departments.  In my opinion it’s the best archtop jazz tone available at any price. Thanks for your help and a great price.  It produces a variety of great natural tones with plenty of power and punch for any room.  Fit, finish, […]

JC Stylles Palen

“The day I entered Lou’s Guitars n Jazz showroom was a day I still remember well. There were so many archtops around the walls I didn’t know where to begin, and I tried out several, all of them big-name guitars, before I tried my first Palen. It was at that precise moment when I was […]

Gene E. D’Angelico EX-DC

Hi Lou… Just a quick thanks for your help during my purchase of the demo EX DC. Just love the guitar and it has raised more than one eyebrow. Best regards, Gene E.

Steve J. Eastman

Hey Lou, Just wanted to say thanks for spending so much time helping me choose a guitar over the holidays. I am VERY happy with my purchase (the Eastman thinline) and have been playing non-stop since I got back to school. For my limited budget, I’m still amazed that I walked away with such a […]

Peter Repair

Hello Lou, Just had to tell you what a great setup and tune up Mark did on my six string  acoustic. I have a local photography business in town and pay great attention to details. I will definitely bring my 12 string in for more of the same. Peter Summit, NJ

Steve R. Repair

Just picked up my acoustic yesterday that I left to have some work done. Mark called me prior to setup, and mentions what he felt was needed.  I knew immediately of how passionate he is concerning the guitars that he works on. When I can in to pick it up, I was amazed how great […]

I’ve been a customer of “Guitars N’ Jazz for 7 or 8 years now. Lou has always been so gracious, accommodating, and informative. He has been with me as my tastes and needs have evolved over the years. On a recent visit Lou had some pieces he thought I would like and amongst them was a one of a kind 1951 Gibson L 4 fitted with an L 5 fingerboard, headstock and tailpiece. I have to say Lou knew this would be my dream instrument before I did! Thanks for listening all these years Lou. You are always worth the trip!
