“They made an effort to let me check out the Boss pedal I bought. Hooked it on an acoustic guitar and a PA system. Great explanation about the product and got it cheaper from them than in other online store. Best service in Derby.”

“This is quite possibly the best customer service I have ever experienced. The guys at Rattle and Drum went way above the call of duty to get my bass drum pedals to me in the quickest amount of time, and talking on the phone was a pleasure as they were courteous and very efficient. I couldn’t be happier and plan on shopping at this drum shop in the future for sure. Massive thanks from a satisfied customer.”

“The service from this company is great. I ordered late night Tuesday and received my amp on Thursday lunchtime - with no P&P cost! Then, when I emailed with a question they replied straight away. Highly recommended.”

“"rude guy in shop, told me I wasn’t allowed to take a guitar down from the wall myself. Should’ve been a special moment buying a 1st fender for my son. And then one person ruins it. 1st time I’ve seen that In 30 yrs of guitar shops”

Hi I'm very sorry if you felt anyone here was rude to you, that is not something we would ever want to happen and I can only apologise. We absolutely welcome anybody to try any guitar they are thinking of purchasing. However, we do request that we get the guitars down from the wall for you (there are numerous signs around the shop), this is simply to prevent them from picking up damage out of respect for their ultimate owners. This is fairly standard practice in most music shops, though we obviously haven't communicated it well to you in this instance and we're sorry about that. Please let me know if I can be of any further help at all. Kind Regards Matt Director Rattle & Drum Ltd

Hi This was an eBay purchase paid for via PayPal. PayPal's policy for buyer protection is that orders must be shipped to your registered PayPal address. We received no contact from you via eBay or any of our advertised contact addresses or numbers but even if we had we would not have been able to change the address in this instance. Regardless, I am of course sorry that you are in any way unhappy with our service, we work very hard to try to make our customers happy. Kind Regards Matt Director Rattle & Drum Ltd
