Humbucker Music Info / Contact Page
Humbucker Music
began with a fellow who wanted to open a business selling products
he truly believes in. Gone -should be- the days of big box music stores that try to
sell you what you don't need. Most big music stores attempt to sell every item
on the street; the person taking your order doesn't care what you buy,
as long as he gets his commission. Well, we don't believe in that... If we suggest
an item to you, it's because we've used it and it truly doesn't suck. If you're
in the area, come on in and check out our store in the Office Depot shopping center in
Ft. Oglethorpe, GA.

QUESTIONS: While many online stores are just that,
we're also operating as usual in our non-virtual
store. Feel free to give us a call or an
e-mail.
Technical questions (like: What the heck does the ratio button on this compressor
do?) should be e-mailed to: tech@humbuckermusic.com
Web order status questions
(like: Can I get the tracking number on my shipment?) should be e-mailed to:
sales@humbuckermusic.com
SHIPPING INFO: We prefer to ship your order to the
address to which the credit card was issued. In these days of heavy Credit Card fraud, while
this may be a bit of a pain, it's in your and our best
interest for security. If we absolutely must ship to another location we might make an exception, but
we'll need you to call your credit card bank and let them
know you need to add a shipping address to your account. They'll do it for
you. Often, people need an item shipped to their work address since no one is at home
to accept the package. In these cases, the customer will be responsible
for an item received at their workplace from the moment anyone
signs for it there. In other words, if we ship something
to a place other than your billing address on your credit card, make sure you
trust the person who will be receiving it. Oh, and by the way... We
ALWAYS insure each package.
UPS GROUND TRANSIT
TIMES: This map below will give you an idea of how long
UPS typically takes to deliver to your area. If you're in New York, it's 3
days. Los Angeles, 5 days. Chicago is 2 days, Knoxville
is 1 day, and so forth. Of course, we cannot guarantee and of these times,
but this map below did come from UPS and they're pretty
good at keeping schedules.

NOTE ABOUT "FREE SHIPPING": Many items we sell have free shipping. Now, what this
means is on these items we will pay for UPS Ground shipping to
anywhere in the 48 Continental United States. Naturally, we
can't foot the bill for overnight FedEx to Timbuktu. In addition, if
you want something shipped 3 Day Select, 2nd Day Air, or Next Day Air, we will
subtract the cost of Ground shipping from the actual shipping price. That
ought to be cool. Bear in mind, this only applies to those items
identified as having free shipping. If you have any questions concerning
shipping, just drop us a line or an email. We'll answer
'em.
ABOUT CREDIT CARD FRAUD: We admit it. We were burned once, but we've
wised up. If you're one of those dudes who is planning to purchase
something with a stolen credit card, here's something you should
know. We work VERY closely with both local and state police to make
sure you get busted. Fact is, on one occasion we found an individual
in Gardena, CA who ordered some gear with a stolen card. As usual,
we contacted the card issuing bank to verify authenticity. Once we found
out it wasn't authorized by the cardholder to be used, we contacted the local
authorities in Gardena. They had us ship an empty box to the individual
where they awaited delivery and promptly arrested the dude (actually, even
UPS got involved on that one). Rest assured, if you're legitimate, you
have nothing to fear. If your're not, you're on your own. Didn't
Mother tell you not to play with stolen credit
cards?
ABOUT SALES TAX:
Georgia residents
will have to pay 7%. We don't charge tax on ANY other
state.
YOUR
PRIVACY: We can guarantee you no one hates
spam, email, postal mail, or telephone, more than we do.
Your name, address, or phone number will never be sold to some freak whose
going to wake you in the middle of the night asking you to try his new widget in
your studio.

CREDIT CARDS: At Humbucker Music, we use SSL (Secure Socket Layer) security to
encrypt your personal information as well as your credit card information. For
added security, we do not store credit card numbers on our servers. You will
have to enter the number each time you purchase something. We think that's
better than having your Credit Card or personal information stolen.
For
those out there uneasy about online purchases: The internet is actually a
safer way of doing business with your credit card than what you probably do
everyday with your card, such as giving your credit card to a waiter/waitress,
or giving it out over a cell phone.
You will hear more and more companies
backing the safety of the Internet for transacting credit card business. How do
you think those "pay at the pump" gas stations work...they read the mag stripe
on your credit card, then send it over the internet...unless somebody physically
steals your card, it's a secure transaction...same
here.

If within 30 days
of your purchase you aren't satisfied, Humbucker Music will offer
