Superb customer service
Superb customer service. Buy with confidence. Bought a guitar from Craig which was excellent, as described, and an excellent price too. Craig made sure the guitar got to me on the day I wanted. I will certainly be a repeat customer. Many thanks Craig.
Puts Liverpool music back on the map.
A really lovely music shop in Liverpool. The staff are friendly, easy to talk to, and genuinely care about helping. They’ve also got some absolute special pieces you don’t come across often. It’s got that proper welcoming, musician-run feel to it, and it’s definitely worth a visit if you’re into exceptional guitars and quality gear.
Guitar valuations help
Spoke online to a wonderful chap who was more than happy to help with valuations of my guitars - he was quick, accurate and so helpful - I couldn't have asked for more. Absolutely superb service and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to others and look forward to dealing with them again in the future. Thanks so much, I wish all customer service was as good as this!
Flexible, accommodating and service with a smile 😊
I have been dealing with this wonderful business for just over a year now, and I'm delighted with the excellent service that Craig (the owner of the business) provides. Nothing is too much trouble for him. He is someone who goes to a great deal of effort to make sure his customers get a first class service. I would highly recommend this business to anyone looking for a high quality guitar from a flexible and customer-focussed supplier. I have also found that dealing with this business has been very enjoyable. Craig is a good person with a great sense of humour. Highly recommended!
Vintage V132 TV Yellow order
I ordered a Vintage V132 TV Yellow on Tuesday, the guitar arrived today. There was no problems at all with the shipping and the guitar was well packaged in 2 boxes. I thought the price for the guitar was really good and the shipping was free. The guitar plays better than I had expected and I am very happy with the guitar and the service from the company. I have no complaints and give them five stars from five

Protone go out of their way to look after customers
Really great service from Craig at Protone Music. Reached out about a guitar that I wasn’t 100% sure about the condition of. Craig went out of his way to share lots of detailed photos and even did a video of the guitar for me. A couple of days later and the guitar (a lovely hofner) arrived at my workplace (always better than having it left on my driveway to get pinched) and I can only say the guitar is in better condition than Craig said.
Got it home and plugged it in and I am so pleased to have dealt with Protone. What a great guitar.
I’ll be back for more, that’s for sure. If only more guitar stores provided service like this!

Excellent company with fantastic service!
The manager Craig has been absolutely excellent in helping me purchase a Gibson guitar for my partner. Craig went above and beyond travelling from his area to where we are in Scotland to deliver the guitar personally, to avoid any delays due to postal strikes and to avoid any damage in transit. Craig has been absolutely excellent and we wouldn't hesitate to make a purchase in this store again. Excellent customer service!

Excellent experience as always with Craig, got a great trade in deal on a Master Design Custom Shop Stratocaster which was spot on as described.
Very helpful as always would certainly recommend if you are in the market for a quality guitar.
Beautiful Guitar at great price
I just received a beautiful Epiphone Riviera from ProTone Music in Liverpool. This was sold to me at an outstanding price including the Epiphone hard case. Sounds and looks beautiful. Preowned 2021 model but absolutely spotless. I can’t thank Craig enough for getting the order processed so promptly and even taking it to the Parcelforce depot in his day off. Outstanding service. I highly recommend ProTone Music.
