Hell Guitars Marketing Dept.<\/p><\/div>\n

We’ve just added a testimonials section to the Hell Guitars site. In a flash of bold inspiration we decided to call it “Testimonials” (2nd choice was “Feedback” but somehow that wasn’t quite what we were after).<\/p>\n

If you read some of the testimonials you’ll hear some pretty nice things said about us and our guitars. I suppose this is to be expected from a testimonials section though, isn’t it? Still, it’s all real, not coerced (or paid for) and offered by some truly nice people, all of whom we have had a genuinely fine time corresponding with. So far, Hell owners seem to be my kind of people.\u00a0 They’re really nice and they buy our guitars. A trend that I hope continues…<\/p>\n

Actually we really do rely on strong customer satisfaction\/word of mouth for our success as our entire marketing budget was almost completely spent on the skywriting plane and giant searchlight rental (a 6 hundred million candle power unit ain’t cheap). Except for what’s in our guitars, we don’t really do frills at Hell either. About 98% of all Hell buying dollars (or pounds, euros, pesos etc.) go towards the actual cost of a bringing a guitar to a customer. Its manufacture (components, labor), shipping, customs, taxes and other reasonable expenses as well as a razor thin margin (just enough to keep a roof over our heads and a squarish meal or two in our bellies), means Hell Guitar owners received more guitar for their money than they could possibly get elsewhere. I feel pretty confident about this. In fact if someone can show me another guitar company who puts fabulous $300 Bare Knuckle pickups, US and Canadian woods, US and truly top of the line Korean tuners etc. in their guitars and are selling them from $589, I will send that person a free Hell Guitar and 7 letters of free skywriting in the sky of their choice.<\/p>\n

I think I sort of got carried away (but really not that much…).<\/p>\n

Anyway, you can check out what some of our Hell Guitar owners have to say about our guitars and our company by going here: http:\/\/www.hellguitars.com\/testimonials.html<\/a><\/p>\n

We’re pulling more together to publish soon and we will be adding to this page regularly. Also, if you happen to be living in our semi-rural section of Western Japan be sure to look out for the Hell skywriting plane. We had to return the Searchlight last week…<\/p>\n
