Bought a Fender Stratocaster off Chris just over two weeks ago. It's absolutely awesome, it's a 2009 and like new. The whole remote buying experience was excellent with great communication and the choice of delivery day. Would definitely recommend and would have no problem buying from Rad Guitars again.
Thanks again for a great guitar and service.

Fantastic experience with Chris at Rad Guitars. Felt welcome from the beginning. Great set up for testing and viewing the guitar I was there to see. No pressure selling and left alone to play and enjoy the guitar. Would highly recommend for anybody looking for something vintage or unique.

Chris is an absolute gent. His guitars are excellent quality and he clearly has an eye for beautiful instruments. Arranged a viewing, was offered a cuppa tea and played some nice guitars, walking away with one! Highly recommend.

Visited Chris at Rad Guitars on a Saturday afternoon and he met me at the door and made me a coffee. There is a really nice demo room with Fender and Orange valve amps (I took my own amp as I wanted to try the guitars with a tone I was used to). Chris left me alone with a number of different Les Pauls and I played them with no intimidation to buy - I made my selection after about 30 mins and was very happy with the trade in I was offered. I’m now the happy owner of a LP Standard 2003 🙂 I would heartedly recommend Chris at Rad Guitars for his hospitality, knowledge and no intimidation approach (it’s a lot of money to spend) and will definitely return there again

Great friendly independent guitar shop. Chris welcomed us in and gave us plenty of time to try the guitar we were looking at. Left with a new guitar! X

Absolutely first-class experience buying a Gibson ES-330 from Chris at Rad Guitars. Chris really knows his stuff with vintage guitars and took the time to go through it with me in meticulous detail. Can’t recommend him highly enough if you’re in the market for a vintage guitar in collectible condition.

I went with a mate to RAD Guitars after he highly recommend him. I now know why Chris has a good reputation - the service received was amazing. Chris clearly loves all things guitars, he freely offered helpful advice and shared his knowledge together with a professional service with no pressurised sale at all.
I was instantly made to feel very welcomed and like a valued customer, it was great to see his set up where I was able to try a variety of guitars and equipment that he had available to try. All the guitars Chris has, he thoroughly checks out and makes sure everything is how it should be.
The guitar I brought is beautiful and I truly can't recommend and thank Chris enough!! If you want a top-quality guitar, check out what Chris has in stock.

A pleasure dealing with Chris. Honest and trustworthy go a long way in giving the confidence to purchase. The guitars I have purchased were exact as described and set up beautifully. RAD will be my go to dealer buying and selling. Highly recommended.

Chris loves guitars & is full of helpful advice. In addition, he’s committed to working with his customers to achieve a satisfactory outcome &, in my experience, the same cannot be said for all traders. He has some cool stock, including vintage, & I wouldn’t hesitate to buy from him again. Rock on 😎.

Just had the best guitar purchase experience with Chris at Rad Guitars. First class and friendly service making me feel welcomed and valued as a customer. I could not be happier with the guitar and it is one of the best examples I've ever seen. Chris certainly knows his stuff and has very high standards in the guitar stock he selects. If you're in the market for a guitar or looking for nice examples / collector pieces be sure to check out what he has in stock! All the best James

Made to feel super welcome at Rad Guitars, and left to trial the guitar I was interested in, for as long as I wanted - with no pressure to purchase. Owner is very knowledgeable, and has a good setup with a variety of pedals and amps to try each guitar with. Highly recommended
