Just wanted to thank Billy for a recent transaction. I wasn't 100% satisfied with the item I bought from him, and he immediately asked if I wanted to return it, and, again, without more than a few minutes passing, had refunded me plus shipping.
Billy, you are a credit to the wonderful folks on the Forum, and I owe you a debt of gratitude, and I know that anyone purchasing from you will be satisfied and grateful to have you on the Forum. Thank you.
ZBest,

| Ditto! I have bought amps and other accessories from Billy Carr and I have been a SATISFIED CUSTOMER each time. Billy and Glenda are two of the finest people that I know and I am glad to call them our friends. Billy not only sells great Steel Guitars, but he is also one of the finest players that I have ever heard. Billy stands behind everything that he sells and is as honest as you can get. You can't go wrong with any purchase from Carr's Steel Guitar Shop in my opinion. Carr's Steel Guitar Shop is my ONE STOP SHOP! |

I had a deal going with him and we had a miscomunication about a part of the deal. He completed the deal and would not let me pay for the shipping!
He has as good a rep as anyone I have ever dealt with here on the forum. He can be trusted--an important asset that is not found often enough these days. |

Coffee, catfish, and confidence that you'll get the best deal and service along with it. By experience I know Billy is always concerned about getting you what you want and what is best for you. A great player and true southern gentleman. "Give and it shall be given unto you", Thank you Lord for this gift to the steelers and all he does for us.
Doc

Gentlemen, as many of you might have noticed, I'm the fella who was "trying" to purchase a Peavey NV1000 from Mr. Carr last wk. I wasn't smart enough to check my actual email for replies from Mr. Carr, so I kept posting under the amp for sale for some type of reply.
I want all to know, it wasn't Mr. Carr, but this crazy ole idiot whom wasn't smart enough to understand all the workings of this forum. (Hey, I'm over 50, ok? Gimme a break, lol).
So, with the apologies to Mr. Carr said, I think I've found a new shop to do business with. He was understanding with my 'idiocy', especially since I'm new to pedal steel.
I bought a Carter-Starter back in Dec., and wished I had went whole hog to start with. Currently, Mr. Carr is working with me on an upgrade. I thank you, Mr Carr, and the forum members for being patient with people such as myself.

| Not a problem, Robert. Were all like a family here on the forum. We look out for each other and everybody helps everybody. The NV-1000 amp is an excellent purchase. I've only played it out once. Anything I can help you with just let me know. If I don't have it, we'll keeping looking, somebody here on the forum will have it or know where to find it. Welcome to our little world of PEDAL STEEL GUITAR and thank you! |

| He got me behind the wheel of a brand new Fessy in no time at all. He also gave me a great deal on my trade in. Can't go wrong with Billy. Thanks again Billy. I love the D10 Fessy. Jerry said he remembered this guitar, because of it's exceptional tone. Man does it have it! |
