Musikhaus Thomann e. K.

My first order was in 2022, when I got a Korg L380U piano. My initial hesitation and concerns fully fade away when this large and heavy instrument was delivered to Armenia in perfect condition. In 2024, I made two other orders including 2 guitars, 2 modeling amps and accessories, all in good packaging and in the quality as advertized. I'm blowed away by the excellence of my HB guitars - TE-62DB and SC 550ii!

The only issue I had was a factory defect with the PG Spark Go amp in my last order. It failed to shift stereo/mono in the app and the phone socket only had mono output. Thomann's customer support helped me greately with the warranty related investigation process. As the return shipment from Armenia would be quite costly, they just offered me to keep the defective and shipped another one, new and fully functional. What a great example of an awsome customer care and support!

The purchased electric guitar had a multitude of technical and visual flaws. The bridge could no longer be lowered, and the string action at the 12th fret was over 2.5mm, with the pickups still too far from the strings (4-5mm) even after maximum adjustment.

The most amusing issue was with the headstock nut, which lacked properly cut slots, causing the strings to simply lay over it more than 3mm above the first fret, making playing chords practically impossible (the tuning would jump over 25 cents upwards when playing a note on the first fret).

Additionally, the guitar was all scratched up, dirty, full of cosmetic flaws, and this wasn't even a so-called B-stock.

I understand that flaws can happen, but after contacting the store and providing a very detailed description of all the issues, Thomann claimed that my guitar was in perfect condition and fully playable! I was shocked... The store simply sells defective instruments and claims that's how it should be... The guitar was unplayable and unadjustable, but for the store, that's apparently the norm...

I do not recommend, avoid like the plague, it's a waste of time and nerves.

So I placed and order for a guitar about 6 weeks ago, it never got here so I check my CC if it was charged, it was and refunded since they never bothered to inform me if was not available I bought another one else where now out of the blue the charge my card and ship it! I told them on thank you I got one elsewhere they told me tough luck there is a $217 fee to return it. If you what a guitar whenever they are good and are ready on their terms to ship you one these, then theses are your guys, you'll get it when they are ready and not before. They won't even bother to inform you if or when it will get here. Do yourself a favor if you must have one buy it from amazon or another sell who at the least acts like they care about the customer.

Scammed me unfortunately. Bought an 18" subwoofer, failed after 5 uses, got a new on warranty. Two months later they come back requiring me to send the speaker back because I according to them have overloaded the subwoofer. Rejected this because I do not have the amps to overload the spec, the previous speaker lasted 5 years with half the rated power AND the replacement speaker has been playing fine in the same setup for two months now. Have asked how they explain this, only comment I get back is that their verdict stays, no comments on my comments at all. Stay away from Thomann and Eminence loudspeaker company, scammers!

I bought a brand new drum kit from Thomann, which arrived within the estimated timeframe. Upon inspection however, the drum kit was damaged, and I contacted Thomann to report it. The returns policy quoted in response is clearly designed to deter customers from returning faulty goods. I was asked to take the drum kit (which I explained would not fit into my car) to a drop-off point, after which I was told shipping would take 15 working days. Only after the item is inspected will Thomann even consider shipping a replacement. I explained that this was not acceptable, as I needed a drum kit for use very soon. Despite my request, Thomann are not prepared to ship a replacement as quickly as they were able to ship the drum kit when I first bought it, or arrange for collection of the damaged drum kit. I therefore have had a damaged drum kit that I have not been able to use, sat in its original packaging, for two weeks. Evidently, Thomann are happy to take your money, but treat you as an inconvenience once they have it. I have used Thomann in the past, and have otherwise had a positive experience, but I will never be using Thomann again.

Really slow processing time and poor customer service.
They eventually cancelled my order after 4 days of inactivity and asked me to wait another 2-3 days, so I could claim a refund. Should anything happen, you are on your own. Customer protection is of no interest to this company.

The team of customer support and online experts is priceless, they suggest you what you should use as per your choice of gear and accessories, feels like a family member not letting you splurge extra $$$ just for fun

I've ordered all sorts of products from Thomann, from instruments to studio products, and in this last order some of their branded products as well. Not only have they been a great value, super efficient and easy to find and order from, but everything has been delivered quickly and arrived in excellent condition. The biggest surprise has been how good their own brand products are, especially for the price. I ordered a Harley Benton guitar and a couple of their Millenium brand products, and they are truly fantastic for the price.

My experience with them the past few months has been absolutely perfect, even when ordering bigger items like 88 key controllers. Highly recommended.

I recently purchased an audio interface from Thomann USA which arrived promptly and well packaged. I had some.difficulties with setup and operation, which Thomann customer service took care of in short order. Overall, a great experience.

Fraudulent warranty policy. They advertise a 3-year warranty but fail to honor it after only 6 months when the product failed, despite the product not being excluded from it. I tried contacting customer service and they told me it was not covered because "3-year warranty" only appeared once and not twice on the product page. Surreal! Avoid! Cannot be trusted!

Charges don't include taxes or delivery costs on payment. I've been waiting nearly two weeks for a product I will pay more for (than competitors). When I contacted them days ago, to enquire where is my item, I have heard nothing. Could this company be legit, I'm wondering...?

I've ordered 27 times so far (thousands euros) and can't tell any bad words about them.
Great services, great support, great portfolio, all packages was delivered ASAP (to Slovakia). It is the best store for musicians i know.

I've been a loyal customer of Thomann for over 10 years, and always recommended people to buy from them, but after my last transaction I won't be buying from them ever again.
I received a guitar with a damaged neck and contacted them expecting a swift response for an exchange but that didn't happen. They asked for pictures which I sent, then they asked for more pictures which I sent again, and then they completely ignored me after that!
After a couple of days of not hearing from them, I contacted them to see what was happening, and they told me that I had to take the large parcel to a DHL drop off point! Pathetic! Bad service! Unnecessary stress and grief!
There are plenty of trustworthy companies out there with great customer service, unfortunately Thomann isn't one of them!

I've ordered a number of times over the years and I haven't been disappointed. What I love is their own brand Harley Benton products, today I've bought my 4th Bass guitar from them (+1 double bass). I'd research the markets for comparative products but price/quality wise, despite my best efforts I end up going back to Thomann. It looks like many on here bass (yes pun) their reviews on a single incident with Thomann. Mine is based on numerous transactions with them over the last 5 years.

Horrible service. Watch there return policy. Don't buy if overseas. I was totally misinformed about my package delivery. My guitar's tracking service did not work properly. The US Postal Service sent it to hurricane ravaged Puerto Rico! Then had me sign for it before I could look at the box because it was behind the counter. They placed a note apologizing for the delay on the damaged box but NEVER explained why there was a delay. The company won't honor there money back guarantee without me shipping it back to them AT MY COST! That would cost me more than the guitar!
Also don't take your equipment to a local luthier for a set up because they claim it voids there warranty.

Epic customer service, great communication and trustworthy! Professionalism at its finest!
Great packaging and handling, everything came intact, in mint condition! Fast shipping and on time! 5/5 stars for Thomann!
Best regards to the employees and all my respects to all of them! Thank you so much!

Mis sold me a guitar and struggling to get money back as guitar returned. Guitar sounded nothing like it did on website. Now all i hear is flinsy excuses not to refund in a timely manner. Pathetic. Avoid

I really like their Harley Benton products, but their customer service is awful. I ordered a couple of guitars from them and one came with the input jack disconnected because the nut that secures it was missing. I emailed them asking for the nut size so I could order a replacement locally but it's taken about 6 emails back and forth to get an answer from them and each email takes 24+ hours for them to reply to. And in the end they told me the wrong size!

Really great company!

Good communication from the outset. Easy to use website and ordering part process.

Product delivered in a good time and very pleased with the part which was needed for my sons drum kit!

Will use again and recommend to others!

5 Stars all the way!
Incredible choice of instruments and everything else associated with making music at unbeatable prices. Fast reliable delivery service and everything arrives well protected and packaged. I have used Thomann many many times in the past and will continue to order all my guitar and amplifier parts through them in the future.

I did have a minor inconvenience when ordering but the customer support was really helpful and we solved the problem fairly quickly! Other than that the guitar is awesome! And it arrived earlier than expected

I have been using this store for as long as I can remember. From when I got my first bass at the age of 14 right up to this guitar pick and replacement acoustic peg purchase at the age of 29. I have recommended Thomann to many friends and family and everyone has come back more than happy with their purchases. If I could give more than 5 stars I would.

It wasn't easy to find a way to solve my problem, but both sides kept an open mind and our focus on a solution instead of the problems.
I also need to recognize that Thomann has always replied back to me timely, in a moment when many companies would just leave me hanging (when things got really complicated). They persevered and made sure to see it through.
In my review I was advocating for myself, and whether it made a difference or not to the outcome, the fact is that the email conversation led us to end this in good terms.
