In 1970 George Gruhn established Gruhn Guitars, which is one of the largest dealers of vintage and…read moreused instruments in the world. The "guitar guru" also plays with some curious new equipment as well. This shop is basically George. The first floor is available to everyone. If you ever get a chance to follow someone who invites you to the upper levels, go do it no matter how not into guitars you might be. Up there you will see the collection only extremely serious buyers and collectors are interested in. This also includes George's personal collection. (and most likely George himself) Beyond that there is also the shop where people with immeasurable talent turn broken guitars into back to life masterpieces.

Gruhn's Guitars is one of my favorite guitar stores. I travel through Nashville yearly on vacation…read moreand have been spending an extra night in town just so I can visit Gruhn's. Their selection of new guitars is the best I've seen. Besides the normal Taylor and Martin standard models, they have some amazing "Gruhn Spec" Martin guitars. My personal favorite is the Custom 0 Kenneth Pattengale Special. A few years ago I was trying one out, and George Gruhn himself came up to me and we had a conversation about the guitar. They have a wide variety of instruments, from standard flat top acoustics, to resonators, electrics, classical guitars, and even ukuleles. The staff has always been excellent, encouraging me to try anything I wanted, and leaving me alone to do so. But being available when I had questions. They have a good selection of guitar accessories (strings, capos, etc.) and a wide selection of Gruhn Guitar swag. I've bought Gruhn t-shirts every time I've visited and now have a wide variety. Parking in Nashville can be an expensive nightmare, but Gruhn's has the luxury of a private parking lot!

Just had an experience with Rumble Seat that made me question which year it was…read more Saw a guitar listed online that interested me, and then saw that it was not too far from me -- right here in Nashville. Called the store. A human answered, pretty quickly. I mentioned the guitar and my interest. He went and physically found the guitar, so that we could talk about it. My budget only allowed for a certain amount, so I made him an offer. He said yes, if I came in today, we could do that. When I came in, I found the guitar needed some work. Nothing too bad, but above my skill set to make it really shine. As I left, I thanked him. He thanked me also, and said, "Now you don't have to wonder about it!" The rest of the world may be somewhere between 2026 and 2097, but Rumble Seat Music is a portal back to my first music store experiences in the early 1990s.

Top notch expertise. I've been a Nashville pro for 45 years and I've known Joe about that long…read more He's not the cheapest in town, but he'll treat you right. Recently I brought out an older Chinese-made guitar expecting snorts of derision. Another tech had told me it needed all new frets, bridge, and nut. I suspect he just couldn't get the buzz out of a few positions and wanted to be rid of me. The dude behind the counter at Glaser's, played it and then talked to me about my use of the guitar. He then told me, I would likely just need some new strings, and handed it back, no charge! That's service!

Perfect. One repair done immediately, in front of me, and they refused any payment. Had to throw a…read more20 down on the counter as a tip and run out before they tried to give it back.
