On my recent trip to London I was looking for a guitar to add to my collection. I already have…read moreFender Jazzmaster, Strat and a Gibson Les Paul. I was actually heading to another music store on Denmark Street when I stumbled onto Regent Sounds. There I was greeted by Nick Rob and Maya. They were so super helpful as I explained to them that I was looking for something slightly different, maybe a boutique guitar. They let me try several guitars through a variety of amps and pedals to help me find the right guitar. They also help me navigate shipping it back to NYC for a fairly inexpensive price. So let me just sum it up for you if you're looking to buy an instrument. Regents Sounds music store excels with its wide selection of high-quality of mainstream and boutique instruments and accessories, sure to captivate any music lover. The attentive service from Nick Rob and Maya elevates the shopping experience. Their pricing is competitive and I feel that also enhances the store's overall value, for me Regent Sounds remains a top choice for all music enthusiasts seeking top-notch products and service and I'm sure I'll be back on my next visit to London !

Regent Sounds is a really lovely guitar shop that is located on Denmark Street.

I really love this shop, more to look at guitars than purchase guitars. There are some beautiful, rare fenders with big price tags. The shop definitely specialises in high quality instruments. The only problem, which may not be a problem for everyone, is the fact that they don't sell acoustic guitars. The staff are great, and don't mind if you just want to browse.

I took my guitar to this shop in March for a standard setup. I also asked them to clean a crackly…read morevolume pot and apply a bit of glue to a small cosmetic crack on the headstock. They charged me £110 in total (£50 for the setup, £10 for strings, £25 for the glue, and £25 to clean the pot). I didn't question the price at the time -- even though it seemed steep -- because I trusted they'd do a good job. Unfortunately, that trust was completely misplaced. They originally told me the guitar would be ready in three days. It ended up taking three weeks. I was told the delay was because "glue takes ages to settle," which seemed odd. During that time, I had to go to the shop in person multiple times because they don't answer the phone, and every visit came with a new excuse. When I finally got the guitar back, the strings were buzzing badly. I returned it immediately. They made a quick adjustment and said it was because "the new strings need time to settle" -- something I've never heard from any other tech. The problem persisted, so I brought it back again. This time, they said the bridge was bent and needed to be replaced. I ordered a new bridge myself and brought the guitar back for them to install it. They offered to do the swap free of charge -- fair enough -- but it took another month to get my guitar back. Again, I had to chase them repeatedly, with little to no communication from their side. I only got through once by phone and expressed how frustrated I was. They promised to sort it properly. When I eventually got the guitar back, I was told it was fixed -- but the same issues were still there. At that point, they told me the guitar actually needed a full refret. Funny enough, when I first brought it in, they said nothing like that was necessary. To top it off, when I came to collect the guitar for the final time, no one even acknowledged me. One of the brothers just handed it over without a word or apology -- genuinely unfriendly and unprofessional. This is the worst setup job I've ever had -- and this guitar has had plenty of work done over the years without problems. I'm now taking it to a proper luthier to fix the mess they left behind. I would strongly advise avoiding this shop if you care about your instrument and your time.

I went in to get a strap for my acoustic guitar and they had good prices and offered to install it…read morefor me. They were nice and happy and the overall vibe of the store was nice. plus since it was raining when I went in it was nice and warm. Their prices where reasonable. I needed to have something put in the bottom of the guitar which only cost £2.50 and the actual strap was about £5.50. I also saw an Electric Guitar for only £95 (average price is £200-£300) so all-around a very nice store :)
