⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"I absolutely love this place. A little over a month ago I bought a new ESP LTD MH1000 from Zzounds.com and I wasn’t happy with the set up right out of the box. So I took it to Steve at Guitars on Main and he did an incredible job setting it up properly and installing a new nut that better suited the reversed headstock. These guys are very knowledgeable and I can’t even begin to say enough good things about their service and staff. Thanks for an awesome experience and top notch customer service!!!! Guitars on Main is an excellent example of how a guitar shop SHOULD be!!!! Thanks for showing my guitar the love it needed!!!!"

"I was looking for a left-handed bass. When I decided what I wanted Bob checked on availability and ordered the bass I wanted: a Schecter Omen Extreme 4 string. When it arrived, they checked it out and set it up so it was good to go. They even made me a good deal on a used hard case for it. This is the 5th guitar I've bought from Guitars on Main. Service and prices are second to none. I also take lessons at the shop. Guitars on Main is definitely a full-service shop. Thanks again guys."

"I accidentally set my GPS incorrectly and ended up here last year instead of Guitar Center. I was met by a friendly man named Steve. This gentleman and I spoke for near an hour+ as I tried out guitars. Not only did he fix the issues with the guitar I purchased from Guitar Center I also found the best guitar I've ever touched(for less than the official site charges for). I could write for several hours about our interactions during and after our initial meeting and they'd all be positive. He remembered my name from the first visit. His knowledge of guitars and guitar maintenance go beyond any other place I've visited. We even "nerded" out over wiring schematics and solder techniques that go into certain guitars. Meeting him and this shop was the best thing for my small and absurd but lovely musical adventure. Anyone that is shy or timid or afraid or unsure where to start his/her musical adventure should definitely stop in and ask questions. They're all super friendly and patient. If I can help it I will only patron this business for any of my musical needs."
