Being fairly new to this area, I did an internet search and found Mercy Guitar and the Fiddle Doctor. I brought my instrument to their shop and received a wonderful warm welcome by two fine fellas - Daniel (working on a guitar) and Doug (working on a violin). They was busy but not too busy to greet me, assess my needs, and provide me with a good price to solve my instrument issues. 48-hours later my bass was ready for pickup. I took my baby home, and the next morning I gave it a go. It was 99% perfect. There was a slight buzz on the open g-string. "No problem!" Daniel squeezed me in and immediately took care of that buzz while Doug educated me on the finer points of classical stringed instruments and recommended a violin teacher for my 8-year old. My first experience with Mercy Guitar and the Fiddle Doctor was outstanding. These expert repair gurus provide friendly, top-notch service at competitive prices. I give them two slaps up! Great shop! Great people!

The cherry on top- he had it all fixed, and tuned within 20 minutes for a grand total of $5. My son is already begging to go back and explore more of the store! We will be back!!

From the owner: Whether a beginner or performer my guitar teaching program offers not only locally one-on-one…read moreprivate guitar lessons (Sedona, and Anthem - North Phoenix), but also, by using a webcam via Skype (a free PC to PC service... that I can help you set up), you can still receive live private one-on-one instruction in the comfort of your own home, or virtually anywhere there is a good internet connection. Over my 30 years of teaching private guitar lessons I have refined and developed my own step-by-step program that's practical and easy to follow. I really enjoy teaching a variety of styles and watching each students hidden talents unfold and I have literally taught students one-on-one all across the world. In addition to the live one-on-one Skype lessons my service also includes a few free extra useful learning aids, such as PDF formatted music transcriptions in both notation and tab, plus audio and video recorded breakdowns in the form of MP3 and video file downloads sent to your email to view or download at your convenience.

Either there is a super secret entrance that I didn't find or the just were not open. Kind of disappointing to drive all the way from Cordes Lakes to Prescott and find them closed. Plenty of folks lined up along the walkway not sure if they were all there because they expected it to be open. Some had their belongings with them which caused me to speculate that they likely are experiencing homelessness. I do hope they are getting the services they need from both Salvation Army and the City of Prescott. Not sure I'd bother to make the trip again despite my desire to support this organization.

The program provides a safe and warm place for homeless men. A meal is also provided for men and women. After the meal, the women are transported to other shelters. However, the bathrooms and showers provided for the clients have been shut down since June. The culprit is a mold issue. That's 5 months. Here it is Oct. 3rd and still the issue has not been fully resolved. A house can be built in 5 months! That's a chilling example(yes, that's a pun) of how poorly management runs the operation. The washing machine and dryer are key to the successful operation of the program. The are also unavailable due to the existing mold problem. Will the program start on time? Good question. There is space for 30-35 clients that will end up being left out in the cold if they don't. I would recommend you contact the office at 928-778-0150. Thank you
