    Walls of electric guitars and all different price points, including pre-owned.

    Service was top notch! Truly 5-star. We had such a fantastic experience buying a guitar for my daughter and one for my husband as well. Mikhael was so helpful and patient. This is my daughter's first guitar and had only taken a couple lessons so she wasn't really sure what she was looking for. He spent the time to educate us on all the different options and made recommendations based on her needs and expectations. Best part was when he suggested, "the guitar will pick you!" And asked her to point out what speaks to her. She lit up and found the perfect guitar. Since she doesn't know how to play yet he plugged it into an amp and played it for us so we could hear the instrument and showed us all the different features on the guitar and amp. I feel really good about our purchase and we're very grateful for the experience. Thank you for all your help!

The Martin Jr in stock was hanging with the other guitars was ready to play & she set me up to try it out. They had a good selection Martin accessories including a good assortment of guitar strings including the Martin brand so I also bought a spare set of the Martin LifeSpan Phosphor Bronze Light strings. I was short on time so did not get a chance to fully take in the ambience & experience of Dan & Sara's music store, but reading up on Crossroads before hand on their website & stepping into their store, I felt the warm embrace of some good vibes, and appreciate their community involvement in local music events in this very charming waterfront town. I like contributing to local businesses so I not only walked away with a very nice Martin acoustic electric guitar, it felt rewarding to give back. I hope to explore more of the Washington peninsula & look forward taking more time visiting Port Townsend & Crossroads Music.

Fender never really made the exact Telecaster I've always dreamed of, so I decided to…read moreassemble one myself based on the '70s Tele Custom using top-tier parts: Warmoth body, Lollar pickups, Mastery bridge, Hipshot tuners, and a Fender replacement neck. Over the years, I've spent hundreds and hundreds trying to dial in my own setups, only to end up taking the guitar to a mix of different shops to fix what I couldn't. Even then, the results were usually just "good enough," with tweaks still needed. But not this time. After putting all the parts together and making the adjustments I thought I had down, I took it to Spencer and the team at Mike Lull for final nut work and setup. I asked them to swap out the factory plastic nut for an unbleached bone one, and WOW - this guitar came back playing like an absolute dream. The action is insanely low with zero fret buzz, no nut sizzle, no weird spring vibrations. Absolutely perfect. Their attention to detail is unreal: the new nut is flawless, intonation is spot on, pickup balance is dialed-in, and they even clocked the screws on my pickguard!!! Who does that? Craftsmen do that. They treated my guitar like it was one of their own builds. This is, without a doubt, the best setup I've ever had and the customer service is on a whole other level compared to any other shop I've used. I'm officially a lifelong fan. Massive thanks to Spencer and the entire team at Mike Lull Guitar Works! You are the best!

    UPDATE OCTOBER 2, 2024:…read more 5 STRING GUITAR SAVED FROM THE LANDFILL! I found an "ETERNA EC-12" guitar in the dumpster recently, that only had five strings. So I stopped in today and asked Preston Lull how much they would charge to add the missing string. He graciously did it for nothing! We also spoke for several minutes about the condition of the guitar, agreeing that it is not worth spending the money to righteously fix it up. But Preston said that it should play just fine despite the damage near the bottom of the guitar (see photo). He also told me to expect the new string to have to be tightened periodically for the first few days. This is easy to do even for me. After that, it never has to be tightened again. Such is the case whenever a guitar gets new strings. IS IT TIME TO GIVE MY GRAY MATTER A WORKOUT? He also gave me the business card for "Matt Benham Guitar" (see photo), saying that he is an excellent guitar teacher who charges about $70/hour for lessons. I told him that I just might try that after first trying to take lessons online if I'm so inclined. Benham gives guitar lessons in a rented booth at Mike Lull Guitar Works (not a MLGW employee). This is the second time in as many years that I have stepped inside MLGW and had a pleasant experience (see original review). Perhaps the guitar gods are trying to tell me to take up learning the guitar. It's good brain exercise!

Rescheduling lessons is a pain, though. For my son's instrument there is one and only one teacher who teaches 3 days of the week, and their flexibility when they've had no available make-up slots has varied. It was nightmarish a year ago, and better lately. My kids have been in lots of other classes/programs and rescheduling at Bach to Rock is just different. Also, when my son has been a little sick, well enough to play but didn't want to expose his teacher, they still charged us for the lesson... which is in line with their policies, but the other private teachers we've worked with have been kinder about illness especially when the key concern is protecting them.

They offer a free trial lesson. Highly recommend giving them a try!
