    Charleys Guitar Shop
    Sonja H.

    Visiting Charley's has been on my bucket list ever since I became a serious fan of the blues, Texas, & SRV. I finally made the drive out from CA & made it happen. I got a t-shirt, walked around & took pics of all the cool photos of all the greats all over the walls. I'm so happy I was able to stop in on such a beautiful day. To make my visit even more special, Brian gave me some guitar pics, and since my next stop was Laurel Land Memorial Park, you know I had to leave one for Stevie.

    Charley's Guitar is a fine establishment with some serious history behind its legendary name. I have had my Tom Andersons through their shop, and nothing but perfection comes out. I bought a Bogner Shiva from Brian, and including the fact that I received a killer deal, it's been a lifetime purchase. Trends come and go, as does the competitors, and undoubtedly there are trolls trying to smudge their reputation, but if you are in the Dallas area, there is nowhere else to go. Heck, I live in Massachussetts and I still go through them for all my needs... Need I say more??

    After reading the negative review left, directed at the repairman Bryant, I felt the need to put in my two cents. I've been dealing with Charley's quite heavily ever since Brian (not Bryant the repairman) came over in '04, and he turned me onto Bryant's work. I've been with them ever since. If you can't communicate with them, then something is wrong on your end. They are upfront, to the point, hilarious and brutally honest. If it sucks, they'll tell you it sucks and then try to make it better. Bryant has worked serious magic on some really abnormal guitars that I've brought in.

    This place is incredible....but you knew that! What really is impressive is the Russell Repair Shop inside the store. Bryant Russell is a miracle worker. I was advised by a friend of mine(noted Dallas musician, Milo Deering), that He only trusted his stringed instruments to the guys at Charley's. When I needed a neck repair done on my mandolin recently,Bryant had my cracked neck reset and adjusted the action perfectly in no time; and it plays much better now than I deserve....I'll never go anywhere else.

    The front if Charley's'

    Caleb and Bryant have done several setups, and small upgrades to a few of my guitars over the last year.

    Tone Shop is one of the best guitar stores in DFW, if not the country. The staff are really…read morefriendly and very helpful. Tone Shop stocks a wide variety of new and used instruments, as well as amps, pedals, etc. In terms of new guitars, you can expect to find Fender, Gibson, PRS, and Reverend - and maybe more - for electric. Taylor, Martin, Gibson, and more for acoustic. The cool thing though is they carry a range of instruments in these brands. You can buy anything from a Squier, Epiphone, or PRS SE up to a Core PRS or even a Custom Shop Fender or Gibson. And I don't just mean they have a single custom shop guitar on display, they have like a whole wall of high end Fenders and another for Gibsons. It's kind of fun to go in there and see all those amazing guitars. They've got guitars that cost hundreds and guitars that cost thousands. While they might not always have the same range of brands as the bigger store (no new Schecter, EBMM, etc.), they have an amazing selection within the brands they do carry. There's something for everyone. They have a decent selection of pedals, including Boss, Strymon, and more. A small selection of pickups too. I bought one of my favorite guitar straps from them. They've really got a lot of cool stuff! They also have sales periodically, and some great deals can be had! If you sell used gear to them or trade in toward something else, their prices aren't going to be as high as you could get selling it yourself online - but are fair for selling to a retail store. I think you can do a "sell in store" deal through Reverb with them too. I've been really happy with the guitars I've bought from them, and the shopping experience. They also do repairs, pickup swaps, etc. I'm pretty sure this location also offer PLEK. I've never done that myself, but I'm kind of curious about it and might take a guitar in go through the machine some day. Sometimes they host events at the store too. Overall I'd highly recommend Tone Shop in Addison.

    Just go. Wonderful people. Attentive and generous with their time. Great setups…read more Im glad I found them.
