What's on the wall
“I had weekly bass lessons in his store, and enjoyed my time there immensely.”
“I went over there to buy a guitar and an amp and he helped me with all of it.”
“you won't find a BC rich warlock at his place unless it's used lol, who would want that junk anyway haha!”
“I sent my guitar in to Frank to have some set up work done and it plays like a new instrument at a fraction of the cost I was quoted by the larger chain stores.”
“I don't know if he offers lessons but I'm sure he could give a reliable reference.”
“If you're in the market for a guitar, bass, or even banjo, and you're in the area, I would highly recommend you drop in and take a look around.”
Brands they deal
“I called Frank on Saturday morning looking for a nut for my fender guitar.”
“I also found a Marshall amp wich sounded pretty good at an unbeatable price.”
What players say again and again
“I reccomend this place if you want someone who knows their stuff and you need a rig for country, blues or classic rock styles.”
“He gave us a great deal and threw in new strings and an gig bag and strap he had laying around.”
From the reviews
Frank is awesome! The store, though small, has a great amount of items to offer. Often he can help locate items. He is trustworthy and gives honest advice. I think he looks out for fellow musicians rather than other places which are more concerned about selling a product for the highest profit but know it might not…
Frank is a Super Guy. He has a Wonderful display of real unique Guitars for sale. A nice collection of albums. Frank also has some pictures of his life's travels. Floyd Tucker gives Giutar lesson here as well very reasonable price. Floyd is a Wonderful instructor , he is very patient and doesn't rush his students.
A small town guitar shop with some cool guitars and locals with fun stories. Pictures on the wall document Frank's history, encounters and friendships with other famous musicians, and stories to be told. Swing by, pull a guitar off the wall, and pick or strum til the lights go down.
Affordable new guitars, and a good (and frequently changing) used selection. Frank is hands down the most knowledgeable guitar guy out there, and he's all-the-way honest. You won't always find what you were looking for, but you'll be surprised how often you'll find what you need.
Lessons at Frank's Guitars
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Frank's 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.
