"Quincy Jones, Jeff Porcaro and David Foster

A sampling of recent unsolicited comments received via email:
"Andy, wanted to tell you how extremely happy I am with the work you did to all my guitars (Guild, Thompson, Strat)! The only word I can think of is PERFECTION. Thanks again for all your work and attention to detail! The 12-string will be next! All the best-"
Date: Fri, 7 Sept 2007 From: Deno
Date: Mon, 2 Jul 2007 From: John Warrin
"Hi Andy, Thank you again so much. The guitars sound amazing. I honestly didn't think they'd ever sound that good. You are a guitar genius."
"Hey Andy, THANKS for a great job on my Strat. It's a world of difference with the new saddles and the setup is fantastic. It is so much better to play now. Thanks again and we'll talk soon."
Date:
Wed, 27 June 2007 From: Bob G., Rancho Palos
Verdes CA
"Hi Andy, I really appreciate you taking the time with us and answering so
many questions last Saturday at your place. Remember us, we were the three
banditos (old guys) drooling all over the place, in awe and wonder of how
knowledgeable you were with guitar gear. Respectively-"
"Andy - awesome job, just got back to play some more...sounds incredible!"
Date: Fri, 8 June 2007 From: Mike G.
"Hey Andy, First, let me thank you for the superb job you did on the '69 SG Custom. The neck is perfect and my gig with it in March went great. Next, I have to thank you for the excellent fire appraisals of my burned SG and 66 Strat. They were so compelling that [the insurance company] finally paid off within the price range you set for both of them. So, I am now the proud owner of one of the cleanest '66 sunburst Strats in the world, and I was wondering if you could find time to do a set up job on both that and a new Les Paul I just got. I also plan to bring in a Tele belonging to a friend that needs some tuning key repair. Let me know when you have time for an appointment to bring these instruments in. Thanks again."
"Hey Andy,
No problem with the referral. You do great work and are very easy to get
info out of and your work is exceptional. Plus, theres no BS. You're the
best tech I have ever worked with. I'm going to bring a fretless to you soon
to have it's nut done as well. Take care."
Date: Wed, 28 Feb 2007 From: Tommy Watts
"Oh my gosh Andy, I don't know what to say. You took a dusty old lump of coal and turned it into a beautiful fine diamond. What you did for my 1945 Gibson L 7 is nothing short of magnificent! You sir are truly a world class guitar luthier and I am honored that you restored my baby for me. Thank you!" Tommy Watts, Professional Jazz Musician (Semi Retired)
Date: Tues, 20 Feb 2007 From: Harry Martin
"Hi Andy. Just dropping a line to say that while I was extremely impressed with your work on my SG, I was even more impressed that you took the time to call and see that I was satisfied with the work you did. You are in my book as a true professional. All the best-"

"Thanks Andy, that [1.3 hours of consulting, amp and guitar repair] was great and refreshing!"
Date: Mon, 25 Dec 2006 From: Jon B. (via Hallmark card)
"Dear
Andy, thank you for your time, expertise, and genuine enthusiasm! You
have once again made the joy of rescuing and restoring beautiful instruments
possible. 2006 was a great year for my little orphaned lap steels & I!"
Date: Sun, 17 Dec 2006 From: Glenn W.
"Andy, I have been playing the Strat for a week now and it sounds great. The new pickup gives me just what I was looking for in soloing. Cuts through nicely where the SC didn't. The setup is noticeably improved too. It plays like butter. The intonation is dead on and my fingers seem to fly over the fretboard . . . the action is great. Playing chords was never easier. . . thanks for doing such a pro job on it."
"Dear Andy, I wanted to drop you a line after viewing your website, WWW.ANDYBRAUER.COM , to say that musicians in California are incredibly fortunate to have a company like yours providing the services you do. N.Y. needs to have something like that here. I've been a fan since reading your profile in Guitar World entitled "Studio Rats," probably in '87. Later I followed your monthly column in Guitar Player. Much like yourself, I am a gear-a-holic. The magazine article that was very interesting was your profile in 20th Century Guitar, whom I wound up writing for for 3 years. Later I went on to write for Guitar Shop. You should consider penning some more articles.
"Why is Steve Lukather selling those outrageous-sounding amps? The sound he got on the Tubes albums defined great tone. Incredible sounding tone machines. At any rate, I just wanted to tell you that NY needs a dedicated service co. like Andy Brauer. It could revive the studio scene here."
Date: Thu, 20 July 2006 From: William Young
"Dear Andy, I want to thank you for all the magic you put into my guitars. It's like they have been reborn and subsequently I play and sound a lot better playing them. The action and fine tuned intonation along with the precision polishing of the fret-board were the answers I didn't know I was looking for to improve the play substantially on the both of them. I want to thank you very much for the work you did, I wasn't expecting it."
Date:
Thu, 13 April 2006 From: Chris C.
"Andy, I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your attention to detail
and actually listening to me. As you know, I am very picky on how I want
my instruments set up because off how lightly I play. It seems difficult
to find skilled honest craftsmen these days. You did a great job on my guitar.
I will be in touch to bring you some other guitars."
Date:
Sun, 2 April 2006 From: Rick A.
"Andy, These pickups [you installed] sound fantastic with the Fuchs in all
positions. Thanks a million."
Date:
Mon, 16 January 2006 From: John M., San Francisco CA
"Andy, Received the '94 MIJ Custom Cream Tele and I'm having a great time
with such a pretty and unique guitar. I was sent a pic of the same model
being played by The Edge. Guess I'm in good company. Only wish I could play
like him! Thanks for shipping so quickly and packing it so thoroughly!"
Date:
Wed, 20 August 2005 From: Greg Reeves, Cordovan Music
"Andy, I just wanted to drop you a line. The P Bass you worked on is totally
great - feel and sound. I haven't touched another bass since I got it back.
In fact, I just got back from a session this morning and that is the only
bass they let me play! Thank you!"
"Hi Andy,
Just wanted to say thank you again for fixing up my old P bass. I always
loved playing it and thought it was one of the best playing and sounding
basses I ever played. I didnt think it was possible, but you made it even
better. It plays better than ever and the new pickups sound incredible! And
the new paint job is Stunning! You and your staff are awesome! you have exceeded
my expectations way above what I thought was possible. Thank you! Thank you!
Thank you! I have a Schecter strat that I would like you to redo for
me also. It is a mid 80s model with some of the most beautiful wood Ive ever
seen. I would like to have it sanded down, refinished and buffed out so that
it shines again. And then set up so that it plays as beautiful as my P-bass.
Let me know if it is OK to bring it in next week. Thanks!"
Date:
Wed, 24 December 2003 From: Niels A. (Copenhagen)
"Andy, I'm very gratified with the two Gibson signature basses that I bought
at your auctions. They're the best basses I've ever played. "
"Hi Andy, Thank you for your help in selling my Dumble , setting up my Strat and hooking me up with the Fuchs Overdrive Supreme. Those three things have helped me out tremendously. The Strat now plays like a new axe and the Fuchs actually sounds better than the Dumble (and I had a great sounding Dumble). BTW I love the way you set up my Strat. It plays great now, the Floyd Rose responds better and the intonation is dead on."
Date: Fri, 17 October 2003 From: Olivier Floride
"Dear Andy, I'm happy to confirm to you the receipt of the L2 Steinberger bass today. The L2 is indeed a very beautiful bass with a really great sound (I have just tested it). You are a nice guy, a fine businessman and I was lucky to make my very first E-bay transaction with you. Quick shipping, No damage : you have done your job very well. THANK YOU for all that you have done."
Date: Mon, 25 August 2003 From: Shawn Megran
"Dear Andy, I received the Mesa/Boogie [Triple Rectifier 2 ch] amp today and I am very pleased with it! Thanks for packaging the amp so well. Thanks!"

"Andy, [your people] were extremely professional and and I look forward to using Andy Brauer Services in the future for any of the bands I work with heading your way. The band really enjoyed working with them. ..All in all, the band [Leisure McKorkle] had a great experience..."

"'I'd like to say a big thank you, to Andy, Jeanerette and all the staff at Andy Brauer's for the completely professional, friendly and fast service I received in getting this very special guitar to me [Michael Schenker's No. 1 Gibson Flying V] , best wishes for the future! Cheers-"
