I had acquired a guitar from a family member that was in decent shape, but needed some…read morerefurbishing. After looking around on Yelp, I came across this business which seemed promising. The young clerk at the business figured the body of the guitar needed a realignment, new strings, and some other TLC. I got an estimate which seemed fair so I left it in the care of this shop and waited for a call or email. After a few weeks of not hearing back, I shot the shop an email and the owner was nice enough to not only be expedient in their response, but to assure me that the guitar was ready to pick up. They did such an incredible job bringing it back to life that I bought a guitar strap and some other accessories to go along with it. The prices here are actually REALLY reasonable and I would argue comparable if not *better* than bigger retailers like Guitar Center. Really solid selection of product to choose from considering the size of the shop and, like I said, they are very hands on which was refreshing. I'll be sure to come back in the future as I'm ready to get back into building out my home studio again.

Bay Tunes Guitars is my favorite place to try out new gear and purchase in the Annapolis/Edgewater…read morearea. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable, and never pushy to get you to buy something. From them I have purchased 2 guitars, an amp, several effects pedals, I also took a few guitar lessons, and had them upgrade the hardware on my archtop guitar. Which included upgrading to a set of dimarzio pickups, a new bigsby and pots and wiring. The work turned out perfectly. If you're looking for friendly expert advice and good prices Bay Tunes Guitars is where you should be going. As I said I will drive past other guitar shops in the Annapolis/Edgewater area to go to Bay Tunes Guitars to get recommendations on gear, try out gear and make my purchases. You should as well.

It is a new instrument but it has not been cleaned for a few years. My daughter has a concert next week, so I decided to call instead of driving there because their hours are odd. My instrument has not been cleaned and it has been out with their rentals. The lady told me her employee put it in the wrong spot. Pick up next week, 2 days before the concert. Adding after picking up the instrument **** Looks beautiful! They cleaned it very well. It took a bit, but I am glad it was in good hands.
