From the reviews
Highly recommend checking this new music shop out. Any entry to experienced level musicians would benefit from this local gem. I took my electric guitar in for service and the technicians went above and beyond my expectations.
If there's one music shop in the Plumas Street shopping district that is also active in the community, it's E and J's! This connection is crucial in the music industry. Justin, the main owner is super knowledgeable of all things audio, guitars, drums, and more.
Justin added a new bone bridge saddle on my Martin, and it sounds so much better than before. He lowered the string action and cleaned up the frets as well. Overall, an excellent, hassle-free job.
Extremely knowledgeable and friendly staff. I took my Epiphone in for what I was thinking would be an incredibly expensive neck repair. Justin listened to me and looked at my guitar and quoted me an extremely reasonable price.
Selling or trading gear at E&J's Music Lounge
E&J's Music Lounge comes up for buying and trading used gear — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the trip go better. First, bring the whole package: the case or gig bag, the original tremolo arm or bridge parts, the paperwork if you have it — a complete rig is worth real money more than a bare instrument, and it saves the back-and-forth of "can you bring the case in?" Second, know that trade credit almost always beats the cash offer, usually by a healthy margin — if you're upgrading anyway, price your old gear as a trade against the new one before you take cash. Either way, expect the offer to be below what the gear sells for on the wall; the gap is the store's margin for setup, warranty, and sitting on it until the right buyer walks in.
