Ill cut to the chase. This venue offers bands 25 minutes on stage, in return for you selling 25 tickets at $10 a pop. Think about that ... youre paying $10 a minute. The Sound Engineers, if they even get to be called that, have close to no idea what they are doing. The mix is awful, unless you have 1 instrument and your voice. The promoters have no idea how to run a show, much less direct bands and their equipment. Bottom line: This place is far out there, takes your money for a ridiculously low amount of stage time, has no legitimate sound crew and allows no beverages at all. PS. DO NOT BUY THE RECORDING after the show. They record only what is micd, preventing any good mix to be attained within the 3 seconds before theyre hocking it to you. Be warned, this place is preying on local bands. Dont be one of them.

Simply put the best selection and organization in store. Easy to navigate and aesthetically pleasing. They dont price gouge you either. The online site is AweSome! Free shipping and theres always discounts and promo codes. So much cheaper than Amazon and eBay and chances are cheaper than you can find at a big box retailer or the dreaded CA. Love This Place.

One of my favorite places to shop for vinyl. Its always nice to find a gem that wasnt overly priced. Im sure they do that on purposes which makes me always come back ;) Its those other vinyl shops that mark everything up so high it looks like they spend all day just finding the highest price online to justify it.

Thanks to Phil, Emily, Bradley and everyone at Guitar Merchant for making Fridays gig for my sons band "After Ours" such a good time. It was the bands 5th appearance at GM, and was their most memorable to date. Thanks again Phil for lending your venue to the areas young up and coming musicians!

A great store, a family type environment and tons of encouragement for the youngsters, including lessons, open mics, concerts. It is a very needed place for those musically inclined but not "rock" stars.

Phil was a cool and fair guy. Very pleasant to deal with. He gave me a great deal with my trade in. Way better customer service than the big box music store.

Prices are amazing, great guitar teachers, and all the shows I have seen here so far were outstanding! Phil, the owner, is a great guy.

Perfect venue. Homey but kickass. Excellent gear for sale, but the stage is The best. My son just played here
