Just bought a gorgeous limited edition PRS Custom 24 from Rolly and the entire service from start to finish was excellent and professional. Very quick to communicate, and a lovely chap (with great coffee too!). Would highly recommend his services when purchasing high end guitars and amps, and I look forward to buying from him again :) Thanks Rolly!

Excellent buying experience - very relaxed with no hard selling, and because he's got a few top end guitars I was able to compare them with the one that I wanted to buy, to understand just how good it was. I'm very pleased with my purchase today (PRS Paul's Guitar) and will definitely be returning next time I want to buy a decent guitar. Thanks Rolly.

Just picked up a Friedman Dirty Shirley from Rolly. He could not have done more to help, even staying in on Xmas Eve so that I could call and collect the amp.
Rolly is a really nice guy that knows his stuff. I'd have no hesitation in buying from him again.

It's been an absolute pleasure to deal with Rolly. Smooth communication, very helpful and he solves all your doubts. And of course! superb guitar at a great price. It arrived well protected and I had ZERO surprises opening the case, the guitar was as described.
Next guitar, I would like to collect and have that fresh arabica talking about guitars and amps 🤘🏻

Rolly's is highly recommended and you can buy with confidence. His communication is first class with answers to questions via email answered very promptly and clearly. The Friedman amp I brought was exactly as described and the whole process was smooth from initial inquiries and questions via emails through to completion.

Buying a Fender Custom Shop strat on-line is not something you undertake lightly, and frankly I was apprehensive not being able to try it out. But Rolly's detailed guidance every step of the way on specs, set-up, playability, sounds, etc. made all the difference and proved to be spot on. Super guy, super service.

I just bought VOX AC30 HW head from Rolly! It has always been fun watching Rolly's FB page and all the demos and videos. All I can say is that Rolly is a great and sweet guy who knows his gear, is extremely helpful and we made a super smooth and quick transaction. Thanks a lot again!

Thank you Rolly for helping me realise a long held ambition.
For nearly 40 years I've stared longingly at Les Paul's in Guitar Shop windows (and more recently on Rolly's Facebook page). Being somewhat lacking in musical ability has made it hard to for me to justify investing in an such an instrument, but when an opportunity to do so arose recently there was only one place to go. Rolly couldn't have been more helpful and it was a real pleasure to visit him in Kenilworth to check out a 2016 Les Paul Standard in Desert Burst. It is now my pride and joy. You really won't get this kind of personal service in a big guitar store and to top it all off Rolly also makes a mean cappuccino ! I can't recommend Rolly's Guitars enough, given the chance I'd be back in a flash !

After looking for a JHS angry Charlie for a good while, I found one literally down the road, for a fantastic price. I went to pick it up, and was immediately offered a coffee, a chair, and then handed a custom shop strat to try the pedal. Rolly knows his stuff, and I had a great time swapping through his frankly amazing amp collection and discussing tones and gear. Great pedal, great service, great guy. I'll be keeping a close eye on his stock now in future.

I bought a Fender 65 deluxe reverb as well as a 59 reissue Gibson les paul from Rolly on two separate occasions. I couldn't be happier with how easy the transaction went and how happy I was with the amp and guitar. Both were packed really well and exactly as described. The 59 reissue in particular is on another level of brilliance. I've been watching Rollys page for a couple of years and was impressed with the stock he had and the prices, also the feedback I had seen looked great. I'm another happy customer and wouldn't hesitate to buy from Rolly again. I just need to save up the pennies again :)

I could not be happier with my Custom Shop Tele from Rolly's! Fell in love within minutes of taking delivery and it's already my favourite guitar. Rolly is a pleasure to deal with and is clearly passionate about the gear he is selling, with expert knowledge. Will definitely be back for more and will never shop at the big name high street chains ever again!

Having been after a Les Paul for a while and being a follower of Rolly's page there was only one place to go. Visiting Rolly at his studio was a pleasure, he has a real passion for music and for high quality instruments, which shone through. The guitar was as described in mint condition and at a fantastic price!!. Many thanks again Rolly for the great service, the cuppa! and the Les Paul!. I would highly recommend Rolly and in fact a return visit is definitely due.

I saw a 2012 Fender American Deluxe Ash Telecaster on Rolly's site; I'd been after one for a while but couldn't find the right one. This Tele found me - I liked the looks and description immediately. I live some distance from Rolly's place so it wouldn't be straightforward to get there so I put off the decision. What I didn't know was that my wife then got in touch with Rolly and arranged payment and delivery. I first became aware that I was the new owner when the courier turned up at my door. What a great surprise - and thanks to Rolly for playing along with it. The guitar turned up exactly when promised (to my wife) and it was extremely well packed. Perfect condition and set-up so I've spent a couple of hours playing away already! It'll be gigging with me on the 17th June. I'll keep an eye on Rolly's stock in the future. Rolly's Guitars - highly recommended!

After a long hankering, I purchased a 2016 Gibson ES-335 ’63 Historic Reissue VOS last week. After paying, the guitar was with me in less than 48 hours. It was packaged extremely well. I was slightly dubious with the purchase, mainly because of the price - it was seriously cheap for what it is. However, the guitar arrived exactly as described. I would not hesitate to recommend Rolly and will most likely purchase another instrument when funds allow! Top bloke, who is very knowledgeable with what he sells. The reviews speak for themselves. Keep up the good work!

Bought my first Gibson Les Paul Standard 2016, this Friday. Excellent instrument. It had his premiere this Saturday in Swindon and is travelling tomorrow to Portugal. Warm welcome at Rolly's/Kenilworth and I'm very pleased to have met Roland. I strongly recommend Rolly's.

Wow - just bought a 2016 Fender American Standard Stratocaster and can't believe the condition of this guitar - it's brand new! It was exactly as described, well packaged, such a fair price and delivered within a couple of days of making the deal. Rolly, great doing business with you...maybe next time, when I'm not so busy I'll join you for that Arabica coffee!!

I saw this 2002 CS 1960 Strat on Rolly's Facebook page and bought it sight unseen. I nipped up to see him, had a nice chat and walked off with a great guitar. It was exactly as he described it - I've never seen a 15-year-old guitar in such great condition. I got it for a Hendrix gig I'm doing next month with Mick Taylor and Jamie Dickson (of That Pedal Show and Guitarist mag fame), and it's perfect. Thanks, Rolly - I'm sure I'll be back!

I recently bought my second guitar from Rolly, a Prs 24 30th artist package, the first guitar being a custom shop fender Stratocaster 2015. The guitars are always described exactly as they are when they arrive. Communication is brilliant and always a swift reply. The guitars always come well boxed up and protected very well, delivery is always swift with a link for tracking your new purchase. The price is always a very big attraction, as they are the best around. Can't recommend the guy enough. I certainly would and most probably will buy from Rolly again in the future

I've bought two guitars from Rolly...a 2013 Les Paul Standard and a 2009 Strat. Both are wonderful guitars...the LP especially so. The level of service is first rate - I'm an online customer and have never met him f2f...all has been as described and delivered when arranged. I'm now trying to resist buying the Mark V Boogie...help!

I recently bought a LP Trad and an ES-335 from Rolly. They were both properly sent with a fast delivery to Portugal. The guitars are amazing, and corresponded well to their description. I bought them without even seeing them live. After a very good first experience with the LP Traditional I had no doubt in acquiring the ES-335 from Rolly. I can only say good things about the man. Very nice and serious. I can only and strongly recommend him. Definitely a contact I will keep for further craziness

I've been a follower of Rolly's page for a while now. When I saw that he was selling a gorgeous looking reissue SG Standard, that I’ve been after for years, I got in touch as soon as I could, knowing that this type of guitar wouldn’t stay around for long.
It was simple to arrange a viewing, as I’m only 40 mins away, and his shop is easy to get to and to park. Having played it through his wonderful pedal board and Mesa amp it was a no brainer for me to take it off of his hands.
What impressed me most is that Rolly is an honest, genuine and friendly guy with a shared loved of quality guitars. The description for the SG on his site was perfectly accurate; he didn’t try any hard sell, he had quality gear for me to demo it though - even offered me a glass of wine! Wouldn’t get that at PMT. Add to that it was a very fair price for an instrument that will only increase in value, you can't ask for more really.
So thank you Rolly – good luck and I’ll no doubt be in touch!

Having found Rolly's Guitars through a friend on Facebook, I had only liked the page for about 4 days before seeing a beautiful Taylor 618e for sale. It took me about a week to make the decision to go for it and I have to say, I did have my reservations about buying a guitar online which I'd never even picked up, let alone played.
Needless to say, the instrument is exactly as Rolly advertised and is even more amazing to play than I had imagined. I whole heartedly recommend Rolly's Guitars for both quality and value.
Rolly himself has been brilliant with any questions I've had and clearly is a guitar enthusiast. It's lovely to deal with someone with such a passion rather than someone who just wants to sell as many instruments as possible. Thanks Rolly, great stuff!

Many thanks to Rollys guitars for finding me the guitar i have been searching for. Met Rolly last week and he is a top guy. Was warmly welcomed with a lovely cup of real coffee which was greatly appreciated after a 4 hour drive. Guitar was set up to perfection and i cant thank Rolly enough, put your faith in Rolly and you wont be disappointed.

Lovely bloke, beautiful jazz player, amazing gear, nice and relaxed atmosphere... these are my first impressions of Rolly - I would happily recommend Rolly's Guitars, it was a real pleasure meeting him today, and the PRS I was fortunate enough to come away with is superb! Thanks very much, and hopefully I'll convince the wife that a second visit is needed! :)

Just about this time last week I was browsing through Facebook, when something from Rolly's Guitars caught my eye.
Can't remember why I started following Rolly - probably because he always has beautiful guitars for sale.
Well, this time was no exception. On display was a beautiful 2006 Les Paul Standard Plus in Light Burst. I immediately fell in love with this guitar and was very nervous that it would already be sold - until I managed to get hold of Rolly after about an hour or so and he told me it was still for sale !!
Within ten minutes we had sealed the deal and I am now the proud owner of this beautiful guitar. It arrived at my house on Thursday. It was exactly as Rolly described it and I can't believe how immaculate its condition is. I played it last night for the first time and it sings like a bird.
I cannot fault our transaction in any way and you should have no qualms whatsoever if you are thinking of buying a guitar from Rolly.
