Music Center, in Bridgeport, WV is my favorite music store in the area. They have a very nice…read morecollection of electric guitars -- especially Ibanez and LTD. They also have a good selection of acoustic guitars. There were also other instruments such as mandolins, resonators, banjos, and percussion. Music Center has some really nice amps, including Marshall, Mesa Engineering, Blackstar, Vox, and Laney. As expected, they have all kinds accessories, as well as some that you may not expect, such as vacuum tubes. The staff at Music Center is very friendly, and while they are helpful and show you features, they don't try to aggressively hard sell you. When I am evaluating a guitar or amp, it is a process that takes a long time and a lot of concentration, so I appreciate this. I am also very surprised by the prices at Guitar Center. Their prices are about the same as online shops, such as Musician's Friend, Guitar Center, and Sweetwater, and they will usually come down a little, to do better than buying on the internet. While you may be able to wait for a coupon, or talk the online guys down a little lower, I would rather support a local business than send my money to some giant, faceless corporation. I also like to try out instruments before I buy them. Sure, it may be nice to try something out in the store and order it off the internet, if you can get a better price. Especially with instruments, though, no two are alike. The way the wood resonates, the way the nut is cut, and most importantly the fretwork can vary greatly from instrument to instrument. Plus, I really don't want to have to drive to Pittsburgh, DC, or Columbus to try out music gear if all of the local brick and mortar stores get run out of business

He is a very friendly fellow who has excellent knowledge of his inventory. I found and bought a minty '13 FSR Telecaster on his back wall and am very pleased with my purchase. If you find yourself in or near Greensburg, by all means drop in on Mr Greager and check out his inventory. There's no telling what he may have available.

Made a purchase earlier today. Didn't even open the device. Hell, I didn't even make it home with the device. Called to see if I could return it and was told to come back. Went back after I ate dinner with the family to find out that they don't do refunds, only in-store credit. That's not cool but whatever. As soon as I come as close as possible, damn near to the cent to using said credit, I will not give another cent to this business ever again!!! You can cash that check!!! Wow. No wonder there isn't anyone in there anymore. What a joke!!!!! Smh I would not recommend this business. Every item I've compared prices to is 90% always cheaper.

The owner has been no help at all either.

I recently traded in an acoustic guitar for a better one, (they had exactly what I wanted), and got a very fair price for my trade-in. I also like the fact that it's not a "national chain store". You get that "personal touch". If they don't have what you want in the store, they'll get it for you. I totally recommend supporting this family owned business. I'll never go anywhere else for my music needs. I give 5 stars because 10 is not an option.
