Huge shout out to every person I interacted with on my instrument buying journey in the Canterbury branch, from Liz who endured about half an hour of questions without a sale, to Tony who tuned up my guitar and endured even more questions, and the brilliant luthier that helped my wife with her first violin.

Brilliant experience from the perspective of a total musical novice, and will most certainly be coming back for all future supplies!

Very swift delivery, within 3 days of first order. When I've visited Hobgoblin shops the staff have always been helpful.

Great service, fast delivery, good quality product. Thank you.

It's an Aladins cave populated by music experts that helped enthuse my daughter, and made me buy a beautiful guitar.

I found Hobgoblin to be a joy to deal with.. The straps were of high quality, which is not always easy to grasp through a number of photos, reasonably priced and arrived promptly.. Thank you.

Great selection of strings, very prompt delivery

Have used Hobgoblin (both mail-order and in shop) many times. Always incredibly helpful and very quick turnarounds for dispatch. Good range of merchandise and often very competitive in price. Highly recommend.

Good quality mandolin strap. Arrived quickly cost reasonable ❤️

I originally went into Hobgoblin to ask if they would buy an old flute I had at the beginning of April. They said they would take a look so I returned on the 9th with the flute and they promised £80-100 and would let me know the following week. I had heard nothing by the beginning of May so rang and asked and got told they didn't want to buy the flute (although they offered sale or return which I didn't want).
So I am annoyed that they had two chances to tell me they didn't want the flute, but they told me they did and then they didn't communicate with me for 4 weeks, only responding when I chased them. Broken promises.

Excellent service, fast delivery and good prices!
Bought a few things from them over the years, a Waltons bodhran being the latest.

Great service, items arrived in perfect condition and on time.

They had a product I couldn't easily find elsewhere, and it was delivered very promptly - next day, I think

Very efficient

Web site complements customer experience in the Hobgoblin shops: no pressure sales, try guitars in store, and order centrally.

The people at Hobgoblin were warm and helpful on the phone. There had been a glitch on the website where tariff related charges were estimated as unreasonably high for an inexpensive item but I phoned them and they helped me place my order with the proper tariff charges upfront. Also, they’re the only place online that sells leather tipped bodhran tippers (which give a nice bassy sound). I recommend them

Super quality mandola strings from an exceptional musical instrument company

I needed help with ordering an instrument. Hobgoblin sorted it out quickly, politely, and very efficiently - it took less than 24 hours from placing the order to delivery. Excellent service and an excellent instrument!
