I felt no pressure and was warmly welcomed to explore and ask questions. After browsing, I was offered a complimentary lesson with an available instructor. The next day, I returned and purchased my first guitar. I also enrolled in some in-house lessons. I highly recommend this store to anyone interested in learning guitar. Come by and see if it's the right fit for you. Special thanks to: Savannah, Jay, Luke & Evan (Great customer service)

Not a great place to buy anything. Nice people but the selection is pretty subpar…read more Was traveling for work and decided to pop in during my lunch break to play around. They had absolutely nothing really worth playing or looking at, but I drove over there, so i let the owner (or whoever was running the shop that day) plug me Into a vintage Pencrest amp with some crappy knock off Fender. Unfortunately for me, they had Dark Side of the Moon playing in the store - an album I obviously know very well. the Pencrest amp had a really nice old analog vintage vibrato setting which actually sounded pretty spectacular for Dark Side. I played along for a while and purchased the amp.... low and behold, it lasted approximately 3 days until it inevitably crapped out on me. Totally my own fault But a lesson to be learned for me as a 25 year old buying used gear "as is"

Have to support these small music shops. Victor Litz has a lot to offer from types of instruments,…read moreelectronics, lessons, used gear, you name it. I was especially impressed with their selection of ukuleles. Never have I seen so many in MD in one place! Definitely more than what Guitar center offers. They have an acoustic room in the back to try their acoustic/classical guitars. I had the chance to buy one of their used guitars at an amazing price. I appreciate the staff working with me on the price and even holding the instrument for a day when they could have easily sold it to next customer. Shows that they care about customer satisfaction more than just making a sale. I was able to spend a good amount of time trying out the instrument and they also helped tweak the intonation before I decided to take it home with me. The only few downsides I could see was some of the staff were not particularly knowledgeable about certain guitar models that they were selling, but much better than say Guitar Center. The humidification in the acoustic room basically only controlled by a residential type humidifier, so not very precise. Compared to other small guitar shops in the DMV, I don't think I would feel comfortable getting my guitar worked on here just based on the level of expertise I surmounted from the conversations I had. But a good place to buy gear nonetheless if you know what you are looking for. Parking is just a little challenging since it is in the middle of old town Gaithersburg. But in the past I have come on the weekends and there is some parking across the street at the museum.
