Testimonials:
Mickey, this e-mail is not only to you, but to all the people that visit
the Folk Of The Wood Site. My name is Rolan Corley, from Longview Texas. About a year ago I purchased a Kentucky 620B, a really nice instrument. About a month ago I decided to drive 500 miles to Ruidoso, to visit the area
and visit with Mickey. To my disappointment Mickey was not at the store. His brother called him, at his studio where he was working. Mickey took the
time from him busy schedule to come to the store and visit with me. Now you
have to understand, I'm just a beginner mandolin player, but Mickey treated
me like I was a professional, with praise and encouragement. He even took
the time to give me a free lesson. Thanks Mickey. While I was there, I even
traded up to a larger case for my Mandolin. Believe me, and him, he truly
has a great trade up policy, and his word is golden. Mickey just wanted the
people who haven't met you to know that you are a great guy, and have the
best program I've ever seen. Thanks for the New Mexico hospitality.
Received my mandolin today. It is what I expected. The sound is great and the color is what I wanted. Keep up the good work. Yours Truly, Wayne
Mickey, my 620B F style arrived today. Its a beautiful instrument. Thanks for the phone call and all the help. Also thanks for the accessories, hope in the future I can do this instrument justice. Thanks again Rolan Corley
Good Morning Mickey Well Mickey the long awaited Kentucky KM-620B mandolin arrived yesterday morning (17th April) in good order, thank you for all your efforts. As I wrote earlier, the mando was for my wife's (Linda) birthday of 31st March (Just out of hospital, 6 weeks recovery), you might say a little late and you would be right, but so what !!!!!! It was all worth it to see the look of delight and anticipation on her face when I was opening the parcel. The Kentucky lived up to every expectation we held and thank you once again for putting perhaps a small tear in this fellow's eye. Very best regards Peter. Your pal in the UK
Hi Mickey, Just a quick note to let you know I received the mandolin yesterday. Set it up, tuned it up, and the intonation appears to be darn near perfect. Played it for hours last night. Great action. I do want to thank you for all the trouble. It's hard to find such incredible customer service these days. I'll be ordering the bouzouki soon. Thanks again, Douglas Crouse
Hey Mickey: I just wanted to drop you a quick line about the Kentucky 602B that I recently got from you. To make a long story short - once I got the instrument 'broken in' and played it enough to get rid of that tinny 'new strings' sound, it has proven itself to be a great basic utility instrument. I recently did some mandolin work with it in the studio, and it sounded GREAT. To me, it has a great combination of both 'A' style and 'F' style sounds . . . crisp and clean without being too thin . . . and let's not forget that it's a great looking instrument, too! Overall, I just thought that you'd like to know that you have another satisfied customer. All the best, - Mike Zito
Mickey, The Kentucky KM-620B mandolin arrived today, and I got off early from work to enjoy it. I love it! Got a lot of oohs and aahs at work before rushing home with it. Nice action, great sound. I repeat: I love it! Many thanks for all your help!! I'm passing the word about your business and fine service! Thanks again for all your help! Doug
