From the reviews
I’ve been a regular at Drum and Strum for years, both for guitar lessons and repairs. The luthiers here are truly exceptional—they handle everything from basic setups to complex custom work with absolute precision. Every time I bring in a guitar for repair, it comes back playing better than ever.
Great place to get great guitars. It can be difficult purchasing guitars online but these folks made the process painless and enjoyable. Very pleasant and professional staff. Tim made sure everything went as I requested. Best price too. I got a hard to find Santa Cruz H13. Excellent guitar. Looks and plays like new.
Amazing collection of guitars, instruments and even better service. Tim and his team worked closely with me to find the collection of guitars and mandolin I’ve been looking for. They were patient, listened to what I was looking for and made the perfect match.
Brought my Taylor guitar in to be serviced – they got right to it and were able to repair it. Very friendly and efficient. There’s a nice selection of guitars and accessories and knowledgeable experienced staff.
Lessons at Drum & Strum Music Center
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Drum & Strum Music Center. If you're signing up a beginner (or restarting yourself), a quick call ahead answers the three things that matter: which instruments they teach, whether the schedule has openings at the time you actually need, and what a first lesson costs. There's no wrong first guitar — a good teacher will happily work with whatever you walk in with, and a shop that teaches usually keeps affordable starter instruments and rentals on hand for exactly this reason.
