From the reviews
I couldn’t be more pleased with my experience at Carter Vintage Instruments in Nashville. This was my second purchase with them, and just like the first time, everything was handled with the utmost professionalism. A special thanks goes to Andrew White, who assisted me with the sale.
I recently purchased this sweet ‘56 from the folks at Carter. Lucky for me, Noah Pelty answered the phone. Of course , my first question was “does it have “it”? All you Tele folks know what I mean. Noah explained he was a Tele guy with four of them and yes, unequivocally, it has “it”.
I finally bought my first Carter Vintage guitar and had a great experience. This was also my first vintage guitar purchase! I got a tip from an employee at Gibson Garage that Carter had a 1984 Kramer Pacer. I knew that I wanted it, but wasn't able to get over to the shop.
I just received my 2005 Buddy Guy Strat from Nick and the quality of what was advertised was more then expected. Carter Vintage had exactly what I was looking. Nick provided me with a DEMO of the guitar...It was his Blues playing, spotless guitar appearance and I was sold. The whole transaction was impressive.
