Reviews Certano

Great design super fast shipping Thanks

Excellent quality, arrived quickly, works great. The definitive way to break into the pedal steel sound without breaking the bank!

Great , fast , excellent and pleasant communication with Mr. David !! Thx again , Davor

A great product and superb customer support. Thank you David for your personal help at the buying and installation process.

I received installed and played without a hitch until one of the springs became this jointed, which, according to David is a puzzling and very rare occurrence(Murphy’s Law for me!) So I contacted David and he promptly sent me two replacement springs which makes it all better now I loved it then and I love it even more and more every day…😎👍👌

Hi quality and easy to install excellent results 👍🏼

Perfect

Had a address issue David addressed it in a timely manor to resolution. will definitely be using his product's again.If quality is what you want look no further! 5 star service

They are everything my husband expected them to be. Easy to install and great sounding.

Easy to install and so good!!!

I love the benders and bridge! Great quality, they look ace and the effect on my new lapsteel adds a whole new dimension to my playing. Well worth the money! The passage to Australia was a bit worrying though. No communication whatsoever from the freight company, no waybill, no tracking number, no notification of arrival, no failed delivery notice, no notice that they were sitting it the local post office. I didn't even know who the freight company was until I emailed David, who gave me the info and I chased them down. So in summary, 5+ stars for the benders, 1 star for the freight company. Regards, John

David sells an excellent product plus provides incredible service. He responds to questions quickly.

Great product & fast delivery. Highly Recommend

Excellent well manufactured product. Prompt service from David Certano. The only reason I didn’t give five stars was the price was shown in $ dollars, it didn’t state US $ dollars, so I had a bit of a shock with the conversion rate to Australian dollars! I mentioned it to David and he is going to state US dollars in future communications.

Excellent Musical Instrument as defined by MR. Certano. Very pleased with my purchase and I expect many years of enjoyment with the C.L.1 Lap Steel. Correspondence by E-Mail was responsive and assuring. Arrived in excellent condition and the tone bar, Gig Bag and personal name tag was a plus. Thanks, Southeast Texas, USA

I contacted David with a simple question and he answered right away. Very pleased with these benders. I would recommend them to anyone looking to get a pedal steel sound.

This is an amazing device. The engineering is precise. It needed a little oil and now the SX 8 string steel plays great.

Easy to install and easy to use!

Fantastic! I am so very happy with this. I firmly believe that if they would only stain/paint these AND expand to at least a 'Weissenborg-ish' shape, these could compete with the very best!

Ottimi prodotti, servizio e gentilezza perfetti, grazie

Love my certano bender ! Very good quality and easy to install ! Well made

Great product, and fast shipping.

Excellent quality. The Certano le Carre has expanded my palette immensely and provides a welcome challenge and new voice to my musical education.

Excellent quality! Works perfectly and I highly recommend it to anyone with a lap steel. Open up a new world instrument.

Excellent, fast delivery and a pleasure to deal with. Thank you

I ordered the Certano lapsteel. Shipping was fairly quick. The item packed immaculately. It came in a beautiful, nicely made gig back with my name in the tag window. Nice touch. The lapsteel itself is gorgeous! Very nicely made, clean lines and no frills. It's very workman like which is what I prefer. Inside the gig back it came with a nice quality slide bar and Allen wrenches for adjusting the benders. If you're looking for a well made, great sounding and functional lapsteel, I highly recommend this one. The only reason I gave it only 4 stars is that when I ordered it the website said my order was completed and that was it. I had to email David to ask about shipping details. His response was quick and we had great communication. I just feel that after a customer orders something they should be informed up front as to the shipping details right away. Just my opinion.

Beautifully designed, easy to install and works like a charm. Fantastic bit of kit, highly recommended.

Hi...Well I had to pay duty and tax coming into Canada...but the Bender arrived early. I looked at some online instruction for installation and things went smoothly and I am very pleased at the craftsmanship of your product...I have been playing my Fender Esquire with the Bender installed every day and am surprised at the possible ways to use this item...takes a bit of learning but I really like your Bender and it looks great on my guitar. Thank you for your work refining and making It so easy to install and play...Rico Fama

Great product, high quality, fast delivery and easy installation. Will definitely purchase again.

Very good to deal with and the products are very professional. Beautifully manufactured

Great product

I am very happy with my purchase, delivered very fast.

Magnifique

Website design and navigation good. Good descriptions. Not much detail on the site about the pickup, though. Needs more demos of the steel. David was quick to respond to emails.

1995: I started playing guitar. 2000: I learned open open-D tuning. 2013: I learned about vst / digital instruments 2024: I purchased a Certano C.L.1 Truly one of the most inspiring and rewarding music purchases / acquisitions of my life. I'm just as happy when I'm playing this thing as I was as a stupid 13 y/o punk fumbling around my first guitar.

Excellent

Just perfect

I have looked at other benders and was not impressed by their design and workmanship. My father was a machinist and when I opened the box I knew he would have been as pleased as I was ! Really Fine Workmanship! Nice smooth action and taper for the bends ! It is really fun to play!! Thanks! Great Job!

Great addition to a lap steel guitar — you can get some steel guitar tones! David has also been very responsive to all my queries!

Shipping was super quick for a product coming all the way from France to the US 🤘 I really appreciate all of the detailed instructions that came with the benders and the bridge that I purchased, I was able to get everything installed and setup in about an hour. 100% recommend!!
