Brought an electric guitar here for a setup in a pinch during the lockdowns- was searching for a luthier in the area.
Dude at the front was really nice and accommodating, but the tech/luthier who called me back when the guitar was ready was condescending about the brand of the guitar, and how he'd never seen this type of guitar before. I know some of these guys have egos, but come on. Who cares about the brand?
The tech also mentioned that the finish on my pickguard was peeling off; it wasn't when I brought it in.
To add insult to injury: aside from the mediocre setup, I had a signature on the back of the guitar (no one famous, just someone special to me) which they nearly wiped off entirely.
I generally only post positive reviews, since anyone can have a random bad experience, but I trusted this place with my favorite guitar, and they trash-talked the brand, did a half-decent job on the setup, damaged the pickguard, and wiped off an autograph.
