Midtown Music rocks! My family was vacationing near Biddeford, Maine, and my son was eager to rent…read morea guitar to play. We found Midtown Music and drove over. Nick at Midtown was incredibly friendly and helpful - and rented us a guitar and amp at a very reasonable price. A day later, the output socket was loose, so we drove back, a little nervous about it, and Nick fixed it with a smile (and no charge). From the looks of the other people in the store and the music being made, it's clear that Midtown is for real pros.
