SPECIAL NOTE: It is with a very heavy heart that we wish to share the news of the recent passing of our almost 12 year old red & white beagle, our beloved Ace. He was our mascot, and namesake of this site. He gave us the initial inspiration to sign up with Reverb.com, primarily due to the name that we chose to use on this fantastic website. He was also the chief of security & official greeter for our brick & mortar shop, always ready to engage with the customers; tail wagging, happy & always on the lookout for any ingestible treats that the customer wished to share with him.
He is and will continue to be, very sorely missed by all who knew him. Our shop will never be the same without his presence. But, his intense spirit lives on.
