From the reviews
Been coming here since they opened. Love the friendly staff and the positive environmental. Great instruments. It’s a must visit place
Quick service. Very nice cashier. Helped me with some guitar strings for my nephew. No trying to upsell or anything. Just a genuine guy giving me some tips on what I needed. Will return.
A unique selection of music gear and instruments at affordable prices! What more can you ask for? The man that helped me was cool and helpful. If you’re looking for new or used gear, this is the place for you!!
Great place to find a wide variety of musical instruments, vinyl , cd's and used items.
Selling or trading gear at Good Vibes Music Shop
Good Vibes Music Shop 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 Good Vibes Music Shop
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Good Vibes Music Shop. 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.
