The owner fully refunded me and told me just to take the cheaper strap "on the house" for my trouble. This is the kind of local shop that deserves your business. From now on this place is my go to.

I haven't been to Guitar Center in forever! There was an ad for a free guitar lesson/open house and…read moreI will forever do something random that is free. The air wasn't working and Jacob (my instructor) and I were definitely sweating like we were in a sauna. Lol He was great though as far as answering questions and being patient. I didn't necessarily get far, but I did get an idea of how to play a few notes on an electric guitar and I actually had fun learning. He also helped me pick out a couple of starter guitars that were cheap if I wanted to just grab something, but not feel like I wasted money if I didn't use it often. The manager, Brandon, checked in before my lesson and after. Both individuals were personable. Tip: Go ahead and have an idea of what you would like to play and have a song in mind. I was under the impression that they had select guitars that they would allow you to use and that there were set songs to choose from but I was wrong. It is nice that you have choices though!

Wow, was this a great stop! Yelp didn't have updated hours, so I'm glad we called. My guitarist…read morehusband and I were in the area for a weekend getaway, and we always stop at a guitar store when on vacation. Alana and Don Parker, owners, were so incredibly warm and welcoming to us, explaining the "over 13" rule in a five second spiel about the store. If shopping for guitars, this is the stop to make when in the Shoals! They have an impressive inventory of old and new, including some truly special vintage items with stories and history. My husband got to plug in a 1962-ish Fender Stratocaster (mint green, of course), and test a couple other guitars and amps. Alana offered me a generous hot coffee, which kept me going on a rainy Monday. Hospitality goes a long way in the south. They sell mostly just three things: guitars, amps, and pedals, with a handful of accessories like strings, picks, cords, and straps. When you are in a historic musical area, in a guitar store, you will come across musicians. Travis Wammack (a super legendary recording artist) popped in and everyone chatted like old friends. We ended up buying a vintage Victory amp he was selling on consignment. We will absolutely be back to Florence and this shop again and again! Thanks!

The people in here were super chill and laid back and the vibe of the whole store was dope. The staff made me feel welcome, encouraging me to pick up some of the guitars to get a feel for them as well as asking me about my experience with playing. Unfortunately I haven't played since I was 12 so I don't know much on the topic. Since I've left I told some of my other buddies about it and they are going to check it out as well.
