I can't remember any other time where I felt so valued as a customer. The friendship that has…read moreensued from just my first visit with Todd the owner has only affirmed that I made the right decision to frequent his shop. He not only is more knowledgeable than most, he can play his guitars as well as most. But don't expect him to admit it or make you feel awkward. My brother came up from New Mexico and Todd spent over an hour with us showcasing many products after listening to what he was looking for. My brother researched and knew what he was looking for but actually got something better and more suited after playing on all of the options that Todd's guidance offered. I didn't realize that Longmont had such a large music store with such a large selection. Pianos, drums violins guitars and you name it. When I walked up to the front door I had no idea how large the inside was. With the number of other customers that were also shopping, I can see why Guitars Etch. Is so successful. Well that and the deals that we got! My brother walked out with a better instrument at a better price than what he went in to orignally went in to buy. Kudos to my new friend Todd at Guitars Etch.

He's more knowledgeable about guitars than anyone I know and his technician associate Julian is a master in his craft and will take care of all of your needs as it relates to repair, maintenance and aesthetics regarding your precious babies. Today I brought them 3 acoustics with varying needs and a desire to purchase a starter set for my teenage son. Dave hooked me up with an epic and affordable package while Julian assessed and repaired the acoustics all in one visit. This will be your "go-to" local guitar depot once you visit, and don't forget to peruse Dave's extensive collection of gems and his extensive knowledge. Grateful for these guys and you will be too!!

Please contact me if you have any questions or are interested in starting lessons. The first lesson is free! I tailor private lessons to the individual goals and needs of my students. My objective is that students enjoy and anticipate their weekly lessons and that parents are actively involved in the music learning process. Group lessons and performances are scheduled periodically to support and reinforce concepts and learn how to perform confidently. I work hard to build on each student's natural gifts and abilities while encouraging new techniques to develop well rounded musicians. My emphasis is classical music, but I enjoy teaching students a variety of musical styles. I am proud to offer lessons that integrate traditional methods with new ideas. Music should be fun! I look forward to helping you on your musical journey.
