Chris Kendall
had this to say:
Stopped in a few times just to try out some guitars before buying. Friendly, helpful staff that understands it's a process. Not the biggest acoustic inventory in the area, but a wide range of shapes and styles to try out in a climate controlled room. Settled on a used guitar I kept coming back to. Good price and came with hard case (used so YMMV). I'll be back when it's time for the next "the one".

I took my 17 year old grandson in to get new strings on his electric guitar. Tristen was there to help us out, and I wanted to say what an excellent job he did! He did the new strings and applied some TLC to my grandson's guitar. Way above average service! My grandson has only been playing a year, but Tristen asked some questions of him to get an idea which strings to use. He didn't care his skill level, he just did an awesome job making us feel comfortable. BTW, my grandson said he is a customer for life. He was just in awe of all the guitars at your shop and talked about it a lot!! Thanks Tristen for doing such a great job.
