Customer Reviews

Fantastic store and service! Our little boy was devastated that he damaged the amp connection on his guitar right before a long weekend as he plays every single day. At a moment's notice, these guys did all they could to help and had it ready and also restrung later that same afternoon, even though they were flat chat at the time. Very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff. We will be back to purchase his first bass very soon. Thanks guys!

Stephanie Saville

I recently went in looking to get my first electric guitar. There was a lot of information I lacked between the options I had in mind, but after speaking to a staff member I was filled in with the differences between the models in a clear to understand description, quickly helping me come to a decision on what'd best suit my needs. Fantastic experience from kind workers and recommend any newcomers to this store if you're interested in beginning an instrument but don't know where to start with your choices.

Cody Merchant

I’ve purchased twice (online) and wont go anywhere else now. I first bought a guitar pack for myself and found the website was very informative, easy to use and the prices were great. Shipping was quick too. When it came to my son buying his own guitar, with his saved pocket money, we knew who to trust. His order arrived within 3 days and he couldn’t be happier.
