She told us some of the history of the beautiful Martin guitar in the case, talked about the shop, and the difficulties of music retail. They rely on lessons, and service. They have a WIDE array of different instruments on sale, as well as accessories and wind chimes that are tuned to different scales. I ended up spotting a Autoharp in the display case and asking about it. She told me that she's make me a good deal on it. She quoted a price about half of what I anticipated, and I walked out with a new to me autoharp, with all fingerpicks, two books of music, and a tuning hammer suited to the harps pegs in a case. While we were there many students came and went with a variety of instruments. Great little music shop!

When the reverb on my amp wasn't working I asked a place downtown how much to fix it and they said over $100 if the tubes needed replacing. Gorham bros told me tubes are actually cheap and fixed me up for $70. They had my amp working good as new in less than a week. They buy used equipment and are happy to make a deal with you for store credit. I traded in a guitar I don't use anymore for a brand new practice amp! TLDR: if you want pedals, used equipment or repairs, go to these guys. They've got a helpful, honest and fair staff that will help you find the right stuff and get your gear fixed.

Since then I've bought all my guitars and amps from Terry, including a Martin acoustic/electric, a Strat, along with my sons Fender Jazz bass and amp. My son explored many stores checking out basses and amps. Terry asked what my son was looking for and what music he was playing. He let him browse and take his time with no pressure. Every time I go in with an instrument or amp in need of repair Terry drops what he's doing and, at the very least, looks at it or repairing it then and there. I went in looking for a new acoustic guitar and Terry found out I liked Martin's but couldn't afford one. He sold me a Martin with a cracked panel on the face at a fantastic price assuring me it wouldn't bother the sound and offered to fix it if it did. I still haven't repaired it. Places that have remained in business over the many years and are truly special during my younger days are few and far between.

Eddie quickly came up with a few options, including the perfect solution -- a Luna with a richer, more robust sound than we thought possible at that price point. The guitar already had high-quality phosphor bronze strings on it, and Eddie made a good deal even sweeter by throwing in a brand new gig bag and capo. He was friendly and professional, and never made us feel awkward for being non-experts on a limited budget. And, he managed to be very attentive to us while also working one-on-one with a pupil who was learning a Hendrix lick. Give Eddie and his terrific shop your business -- you won't be sorry.
