What's on the wall
“brought my 84 MIJ squire strat for repair after i accidentally snapped one of the bolt-on screws in the neck itself while attempting to DIY repair stripped neck screw holes.”
“I’ve already had them do a warranty repair on a Fender amp which was done super quick and they’ve also installed a pickup in my Santa Cruz acoustic that sounds awesome.”
“When we said we were there to see the vintage Martin, he immediately knew who I was and brought the instrument out of the back.”
“There was a great selection of used and new gear along with a nice string selection.”
“I had brought in a guitar for trade evaluation, but ended up not doing the trade and when I got home the setup on my guitar was off.”

From the reviews
When you first walk into this store, you see that it is a high quality music store. Presentation is strong here and it has that wow factor that other music stores don't seem to have anymore. Five Star carries the best brands, have gear in all the price ranges and they have staff that are totally cool/helpful.
This place completely surprised me. When I had first heard about it, it looked to me like it would be like a “Guitar Center” since they had so much inventory and it was so large but I was wrong.
Geoff was very knowledgeable and patient with my beginner questions. He knew a lot about all their products and he was a pleasure to speak with! There was a great selection of used and new gear along with a nice string selection. I even got some free picks for signing up with their rewards.
Best guitar store in Oregon! I've been a long time customer of Five Star and I've never been disappointed in service, prices or selection! Every staff member is engaged, helpful and friendly. I've purchased some of my favorite gear here and their selection just gets better everyday! Special shout out to Michael...
Selling or trading gear at Five Star Guitars
Five Star Guitars 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.
Lessons at Five Star Guitars
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Five Star Guitars. 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 on hand for exactly this reason.
