Per Retail Manager, Kevin Jordan,"pause" means "cancel". I have not had a lesson since February. This is August and they are continuing to bill me.

The strings they make are still solid to this day and it's quite a surprise they have presence not too far from where I used to work. They also make pickups, microamps, tuners and other accessories but the strings are their bread and butter. Can't go wrong with the Blue Steels if you need a fairly priced selection or you can opt for the NIckel Plated's Jimi Hendrix used in his days. If it was good for Jimi, it's good for any guitarist.

Great turnaround and my guitar plays so much better now -- action feels smoother, stays in tune better, and it honestly plays so much better. Forget Bigbox stores. These guys are a small business and you can tell they care about quality work and making sure customers leave happy. I'd definitely recommend them to anyone looking for guitar work or music gear. There's a reason they've been around for so long.

Mike W. has been wonderful with our son and keeps us updated on his progress after each session! The money is worth the time and effort for sure!

The store is packed with any genre of sheet music and books (and TAB form) for every instrument you can imagine (banjo, dulcimer, mandolin, vocals, guitar, piano, brass instruments, woodwinds, etc all of them). They sell accessories such as guitar strings, tuners, straps, picks, music stands, and some acoustic guitars and banjos as well. Vinyl records and small musical gifts line the walls, it's so fun to explore and each time you visit you'll find something new, as there's so much selection. If there is something they don't have in stock, they will order it for you. The vibe is very relaxed and they are never pushy, you can look around for 30 min alone exploring if you want and just ask if you need anything. Love this place and can't recommend it enough, it's also a vintage store with history dating back to the 1950's so it has such cute charm and decor, it's an experience that online shopping can't give. I now purchase all my sheet music and guitar accessories from Central Music, support local!

We were in and out of the shop in 20 minutes. The salesperson helping us was knowledgeable and friendly and we were able to find the accessories we needed as well (shoulder rest sponge and rosin). She's been playing it for 3 months with no issues and it doesn't go out of tune quickly like her cheap one. Billing is automatic and easy, with no mistakes. Such a great experience - we'll definitely be back when it's time to upgrade to the next one!

I had a quick and seamless experience at the Avondale Guitar Center!…read more As soon as I walked in and asked for help locating a specific item, Tristan immediately stopped what he was doing, came around the counter, and personally led me to the DJ section in the back. He didn't hesitate to grab a ladder and pull the item for me. What stood out most was the trust he showed, he allowed me to carry the item to the front myself, even though it was a higher-priced product which other businesses frown upon. The entire visit, from walking in to checking out took no more than 10 minutes, literally! Tristan was also very patient while helping me set up an account and clearly explained the warranty options without being pushy. His attitude and customer service were truly excellent. I actually returned about an hour later, just minutes before closing, and was helped by another associate, Andrew. Once again, I was greeted right away and asked how he could assist me. Andrew was calm, kind, and understanding, and he quickly helped me process an exchange without any issues. He handled everything efficiently and made the process stress-free. I honestly didn't expect to need to visit a Guitar Center, but this experience completely exceeded my expectations. The staff created a welcoming and helpful environment, and I highly recommend this location!
