Their prices are fair and they are incredibly knowledgeable. Were the selection a bit bigger, this would be a 5 star versus a 4.

They also sell a good selection of effects, amps and accessories. Jim, the owner, is like a walking encyclopedia of guitars.

They allowed me to bring my equipment in to test it out and I was very impressed with the service I received. If you are in the market for some high end vintage gear, there are few better places in the whole US.

I have bought a lot of instruments from them and am so happy with all of them. I will continue to drive the 1-1/2 hours to shop this store.

Once again just a showcase of your generosity and kindness. Brenner, you certainly lived up to the hype I threw out to my friend about you as a knowledgeable and caring salesperson. His son is so happy with the guitar you helped them select. I live in Baltimore again now but you guys will be my store for life! The selection is fantastic. The prices are amazing. The staff is absolutely top tier. You walk in and feel so welcomed you never want to leave.

NOBODY in my metropolitan area of 6 million plus had it. So I called Bob, who said he would set the guitar aside for me. Road Trip!

Great guitar, fair price, and a knowledgeable owner. 6 stars!

Then, I was taught the basics of how to play Seven Nation Army! On my first group rehearsal, I got together with two other students, a guitarist and a drummer. We got to know each other and learned how to work together as a band. We learned how to pull apart a song and create a music map. Then, we used what we learned and played the entire Seven Nation Army song together. It was so much fun, just jamming and playing a song together. I can't wait to go again next week!

I was told when I went to pick it up that they couldn't find anything wrong other than a small piece of metal that they removed must have been cutting the sound out (did not test the guitar in the store just took their word). Come to find out, when I got it home, that the issue is the switch and that both pickups don't come on until the switch is midway between the middle and bridge position...you would think that when paying for a repair this is something they would figure out easily. Complete waste of money. I also asked them to take a look at a fret-buzz and they fully forgot so that was also somewhat annoying (I paid for a setup and repair). Guitar was exactly the same when I got it back down to the same exact fret-buzz. I was so dissatisfied that I refused to even drive back there to get a refund. Ultimately, untrustworthy. I believe whoever did the "repair" was deceitful to me. Now in all fairness, this was a few years back and the same people may not be working there anymore...I just thought of it again when I had to repair the exact same issues myself.
