Niko, the manager at guitar center in Braintree has been such a pleasure working with and helping me pick out new gear. Ukulele, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, keyboard, audio interface for recording etc.. all the staff is great but Niko really made me feel comfortable and happy and informed with all my purchases. He's really good at what he does and I'm having a blast recording my son's first songs and sounds!

They treat their customers with the utmost respect. The long black-haired death metal guy who works here (Brendan) is an incredibly kind and friendly salesperson. Every time I come here, they make me feel welcome. Skip the Music Emporium and spend your money here instead. The spirit of Matt Leff is alive and well thanks to kind, well-meaning salespeople like Brendan. I never feel rushed or pressured and I almost always have to stop myself from talking Brendan's ear off whenever I visit. I'm sure even if I did annoy him, he might never even show it.

Don't go here to get anything "appraised" I bought an 800 dollar electric guitar from guitar center…read moreabout 4 years ago, with it still being in excellent condition I decided to go in to ask how much it was worth. The first day I brought it someone told me atleast 450-500. Then I was told I had to talk to a guitar tech.. the tech told me he guitar was basically not worth anything because it was waved. He pointed out what was wrong me being a newb guitarist believed it and when everyone started offering me 100 dollars for it I figured I'd be luck yo even get that.. fast forwarding to now the person who bought the guitar that I shipped it to on eBay informs me it was not even waved and needed simple fret work.. So thanks guitar center for giving me shit advice when I wasn't even selling it to you in the first place.

She now plays BETTER than in 1995, and I'm happy to report has taken its place as my main axe again! As far as I'm concerned, this is the only place that I will trust with my dearest guitars. Many thanks to Greg!
