I was recently given a guitar to start learning on, the most obvious issue being that it's missing…read moresome strings. I figured I would take it to a local business to have it it re-strung and looked over. I waited all week to go at a time outside of my work hours because their hours are very limited. I walked in holding the guitar and the first thing that was said to me when I walked in was "we're not doing anymore repairs today". The gentleman then asked me what was wrong with it and I explained that I didn't know what and wanted it looked at. He offered to write up a value on it to let me know how much it could be worth, and I explained to him that my intention was to play this guitar and that would really only be helpful to know to compare to the cost of repair. He did show me a few guitars they had in house at what seemed like a decent price. But instructed me to come back when the repairman was in, which could be anytime because even though he had hours, he is a gig worker and sometimes has to leave. It largely felt like he was more interested in selling me something versus addressing the concerns I currently had. Can't blame him in this economy, I suppose. He was kind and it is a cool shop, just didn't seem like it was what I needed based on my situation. This place has a very small town, small store feel - if you're looking for a wide variety of instruments and/or consistent hours, this might not be the right choice for you either.

Great place to find out what is happening musically in town and buy tickets to shows.read more

I would most definitely recommend Stevie. Our daughter benefited greatly and her confidence level was significantly improved thanks to the time she spent with Stevie.

The store sent it over to their amp guru for further troubleshooting. Turned it around sooner than I was expecting, since it was so weird. Super job ! Turned out to be a silly (but important) slide switch for speaker impedance selection. The signal could not get to the speakers. Replaced it and called me that it was ready. Magnificent !!

Our visit to this long standing store was super short and simple…read more We were walking around downtown and stopping at shops as we passed them, curious to learn what the insides looked like and what the place truly offered. This is a classic old school music store IMO. Simple, small and stuffed from ceiling to ground, wall to wall with equipment of all sorts. Music instruments, supportive items, new things to discovered, unique and special, and more. Very kind people, quiet space. *I didn't check if bathrooms were available

I recently had a great experience at Guitar Center in Marana, AZ. I ordered a used guitar from…read moreanother store. When it arrived, it wasn't as expected. Johnny, who I believe is the manager (not sure), suggested I make use of their return policy. I could take it home and make sure of my decision. When I decided to return it, he spent a lot of time with me choosing another guitar, walking me through each step. I then had their guitar tech (Gunner) set it up for me. He did a great job. I'm am more than pleased with Guitar Center and will certainly return their for future purchases. I am a semi-retired professional with 36 years of performance history.

Ive wanted a Specific Guitar for... well most of my life (I'm 55)…read more Never in my life have I been treated so honest and fairly in a transaction over $3000.00. Dalton, Chris and Bailey were by far the most talented and knowledgeable trio I've ever met in a retail setting. I was greeted In a warm, friendly and professional manner. I knew what I wanted and still had a few questions. it wasn't the answers that I got but the way the answers were given. I really felt important and that my concerns were addressed. they found the perfect for me Gibson J 45 Standard. I received more then expected for the trade of another High End Guitar. Dalton made sure I was truly satisfied and he insisted the guitar be delivered to the store so he and Chris could inspect it prior too me picking it up and assured me that I wouldn't leave the store until I was beyond satisfied with my purchase or if I might change my mind for a different model. I'm really looking forward to getting my guitar and can't wait too see the three of them too thank them again. this should be the store you choose if you're in the greater Tucson are. the Sales and Service provided will set the bar of your Customer experience to a whole new level.
