I had a repair done by Alfred of a hairline crack on the neck up by the head stock. He did a…read morefantastic job repairing it and was a pleasure to work with. So was everyone else there. Being a guitarist, it's great to know that Gryphon is there if ever I need any kind of work done on one of my guitars. Thanks guys!

I've had a very positive view of Gryphon for a long time, but recently had an especially amazing…read moreexperience there while purchasing my first electric guitar. Luke listened to my situation as a beginner and was very supportive. He first validated my choice of instrument (which I'd researched in advance) and then kindly played the guitar for me on a good amp using various settings so that I could confirm my choice. Being new to an electric guitar, I had a lot of basic questions and Luke patiently answered them all - and more. He then helped me select an amp, comparing several amps and illustrating their features by playing through them. He essentially gave me a free tutorial/lesson on both the guitar and then the amp! The amazing care and attention to detail did not stop there. Luke fully set up my new guitar by cleaning it, getting the plastic wrap off of the pickguard, and fixing a tiny imperfection he had noticed. He also helped me pick a comfortable strap and think through other supplies I needed. I could not be more delighted with my new guitar and setup at home now! I am incredibly grateful for Luke's help and encouragement, and Gryphon's existence in our community!

Beautiful tone, well maintained, and inspiring to play. I've played in concert halls that didn't sound this good. A hidden gem for classical musicians!

I've seen signs about this place but hadn't heard too much about it. One weekend day she was frustrated at a problem and I was no help so I figured let's try it! Well it was the best thing. We have met with Jason and he's a really good tutor. I sat in the waiting room for the first meeting and I liked how he directed her to the answer instead of just giving her the answer. We will definitely be using this place more for both of my kids advanced math classes in high school. Thank you Jason!
