Circle of 5th’s Decoder - Best Yet

The promo is accurate - this circle of 5th’s is the easiest to use (I’ve had several others). Easiest to read too, even in dim lighting. Excellent value. I ordered two extras for musical friends (birthday or Christmas gifts).

Customer service

Great product and very easy to understand. Shipping is fast. I had an issue one time with receiving the product which was not the fault of noisyclan. The package was lost by the US postal service. Once I called noisyclan and told them about not receiving my order, joe immediately sent me a new set to replace the one I did not receive. Before, I could receive the new order, the old one was found by USPS and finally delivered to me. I advised joe that I would return the new replacement one he sent me since i got my original order. Joe let me keep it to share with a friend. Very much appreciated gesture. This is not a perfect world, things break, things doesn’t go as planned all the time. But customer service makes the difference. I will be monitoring noisyclan and I will be purchasing more products from them. Very happy with their high quality product and their excellent customer service.
