Default You Guys were Right! Rocky really gives good deals...

This week I really started GASsing for a new Setzer G6120sslvo. Being short on cash, I went into my collection and decided to sell my Les Paul Custom. I priced it right and it took all of about an hour to sell. With the money in hand, I started searching for the Setzer--here, on the other site and finally EBay. There were a few used ones on EBay within my price range, and one used sslvo in particular listed on EBay from Street Sounds. After reading here about "calling Rocky and he will take care of you", I decided to do so....Boy, you guys weren't kidding....Rocky really knows how to take care of his customers.....Not only did I get a great deal, but I was able to afford a brand new one for a very, very reasonable price!!!!!

So now, I also join Rocky's fan club.....

Thats great to hear. The independent dealers seem to bend over backwards for the sale. Which in this economy, is just what the doctor ordered. Congrats on making a sound financial and playing choice! I wonder if he sells Sg's?

Just checked, no SG's on the website. Still, I have heard nothing but good things about them!

Rocky doesn't carry Gibsons. I just got a new White falcon from him last week. Pics to follow. His prices are great but his service is better.

If it weren't for you guys here on the Forum, I would have never known to call Rocky. He saved me a boatload of money.... My only regret is that he has Joe Carducci and Fred and Kim Falcon at his store this afternoon about 90 minutes from my house, and I cannot make it..... Would have been great-- NGD, Fred,Joe and Kim....what more can a guy ask for?

Rocky's the man, all right. No need to shop for a new Gretsch anywhere else. My apologies to any other Gretsch dealers here, but none of you come close, IMO.
