What's on the wall
“I brought in several instruments, electric stick bass, amplifier, and a valuable acoustic guitar.”
“My son had his electric guitar strings replaced here and the man running the store was very friendly.”

“They have new and used instruments to peruse and all the additional things like strings, straps and pedals.”
“The facility has a nice selection of instruments from woodwinds to percussion, strings, and brass plus a nice selection of used and new guitars.”

From the reviews
I wanted to take a moment to thank Todd at Flying Pig Music for taking care of my guitar ahead of a busy few weekends of gigs. He made some much needed adjustments to resolve a buzzing issue, and put some brand new strings on that were slightly different than what I'd been using.
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 A special place for all music lovers Flying Pig Music is more than just a store—it’s a place filled with heart and passion for music. Todd, the owner, is a wonderful soul: always kind, attentive, and ready to help with anything you need.
I recently took my son's trumpet in for a professional cleaning, and I couldn't be more impressed! With my son’s busy band schedule, we couldn’t leave the trumpet for an extended period, but they had a quick turnaround time that worked perfectly for us. The instrument came back looking and sounding fantastic!
This is a true old-school music shop where customer service comes first. The owner takes time to get to know the customer and learn what kind of player the customer is. He's very knowledgeable. I needed some TLC given to a 41-year-old electric guitar that is a treasured instrument.
Selling or trading gear at Flying Pig Music
Flying Pig Music 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 Flying Pig Music
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Flying Pig Music. 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.
