the good news about bjs bars

Post by Steven Finley »

I thougt I would tell you all the good news,
just did another transaction with bjs bars and
as always it was a pure pleasure to talk to Mr.Butch
Gardner at bjs bars.
Mr.Gardner goes the extra mile to take care of his
customers,and gives also the finest product in steel
guitar bars.
you owe it to yourself if you dont have a BJS bar
get one for yourslf, if not for yourself,get one for
your tone.
Thanks again BJS bars for your great product and
service.

You are right

Sir you are absolutely right. I recently presented Butch with a problem with a bar that I have owned for
5 or 6 years. Butch has bent over backwards to make me happy. No need to worry they still have a great product, and they are still a fantastic company. Thanks Butch.

I ordered a 12-string bar Friday, got it Monday morning. Awesome service! Thanks Butch. Now I see why so many use a BJS Bar. Not just service...but a GREAT product!!!

Dittos and "plus ones" all the way from me. I just got a new bar from Butch and it's just plain perfect. Even better than the older BJS bars I have.
Absolutely outstanding service as well. I'm a BIG fan.

Just got mine and have to agree with everyone. Butch is great and so are his bars.

Butch is a great guy to deal with and BJS still makes the best bar I have used.

I will chime in and agree. I recently got a new bar as a spare and it is as good as the first one that Bill made. Butch is a great guy and stands behind his product.

Another endorsement of Butch Gardner, current owner of BJS bars. The bars he makes are noticably smoother and better than the Bill Stroud version, hard as that is to believe. There isn't a better bar imho.
