    I never, ever write reviews and have ALWAYS held GC in the highest regard. I have better things to do. It's a waste of my time and the time of the individuals who have to read these, if they actually do. Especially when brick and mortar retail locations are dead and dying. I will keep short. Although, just a music store, I get it. The management at store and district level continue to hire inexperienced, and incapable individuals to manage their stores. The bigger picture may not mean much, however it creates a terrible experience, isolates loyal customers and makes one question the ability and skills to hire, run, maintain, and keep a sustainable business that will last and be successful. There are obvious and a few factors NO business wants. Negative attention, bad word of mouth on social medial and verbal experience sharing. A fine, true and extreme example includes making a decision to call 9 local law enforcement agents on an individual seeking to shop and wish all is well with three of the store's employees. That person can now only share how bad, unnecessary and ridiculous this decision was with all the local businesses they work with, including their friends and family. Now have to deal with the aftermath, even if they think they were in the right or whatever very likely incorrect information they received. The proof is in the law enforcement as they were told fake, inaccurate information and wasted their time. Enjoy, be careful, it can happen to anyone. - Marek Carrilious

    If you want a place to try out guitars undisturbed, this place is great. If you want assistance from a salesperson, good luck.

    THE very best guitar tech in the five boroughs. Matt Brewster transformed a vintage Gibson Firebird…read moreI'd picked up for about half price, because it had been tampered with, wired wrong,and just all wrong. In just about 2-3 days, he found a big issue that the last tech had missed. I got phone calls on the progress, he asked permission before doing a fret level and polish, and replaced the tuners, full setup, fret level and he transformed it from a "player's project" into an Instrument that played like a new Gibson. The price I paid for the work was so fair, I know him and his techs worked on that thing for days. Everyone at the shop knew about its progress, and they all seemed proud of their work. Good Vibes, Honesty, and integrity along with getting a tech that's mentioned in Rig Rundowns, he works on Rock Star's guitars, and you'll get the same quality work as those celebs on Rig Rundown for the same price a local music shop charges. Matt, Chris and everyone working at 30th street always greet me with smiles and warmth. That is the cherry on the sundae. Retail professionalism along with the best setup man in NYC, these are rock solid fellas.

    If I'm being honest, I had lost a lot of faith in guitar center based on the Totowa location, and…read morehave been getting my gear largely online or from indie shops as a result. That all changed today. First time in this location, and I'm kicking myself for not stopping here sooner. I've driven past this particular store hundreds of times, but never stopped until today. First observation: this particular store has one of the better layouts I have seen as far as Guitar Center stores go. The space is massive, and everything is easy to find. The store has ample staff, all of whom are eager to help. Despite a large crowd on a busy Saturday, lines were moved quickly and customers were all attended to. Staff was incredibly friendly and struck up conversation about making music. From a drummer's perspective, this place was a jackpot. Nearly half the store was drums. I was thrilled to find a massive snare drum wall, including vintage snares. Cymbal room selection was impressive. Lots of new and second-hand drum kits to see. E-drum selection was massive and had something for everyone's budget. Where the store truly shined was with their ample parts, accessories, and tools for drummers. This is lacking in many other locations. Picked up some things I needed and fair prices (LESS than Amazon!). The staff, again, were pleasant and kind. That makes a huge difference in and of itself. Store was clean and well-organized. This is my new store for buying in-person. Period.
