--Ordered a brand new 11" Pisgah Appalachian from Turtle Hill on August 25. 10 minutes after I received it I realized it wasn't the right instrument for me and called. They were less than thrilled to have it returned and said only one or two instruments have been returned in last 20 years. Called it a "used" instrument and said I'd have to pay $300 for shipping and THEN have it inspected. I literally played it for less than 10 minutes and it's been in the case ever since.
--I decided not to haggle and called Pisgah and they weren't happy to hear about my experience. Said it is NOT a used instrument and their dealers should take returns. They said I should list it on the BH classifieds, which I did, but no matter what am gonna lose a few hundred if it sells.
