From the reviews
I went to purchase a brand new guitar at the this location and we ran into a unique situation. I was able to purchase the guitar the day that I went in, but the guy who was helping me, Eli, did a great job at explaining the situation to me.
I bought a Taylor from here. Love the guitar. I’m very thankful came with a very nice custom tailor. Case with a deep purple felt padding if it’s really snug. The staff was helpful. I’m not great with names, but the lady helped me decide on the grand auditorium body style.
Kevin was fantastic. I just got given a guitar by my dad yesterday and took it in to get re-strung. He was able to give me good recommendations for strings and set me up with a stand and some basic knowledge on everything. This was my first time inside of a guitar center and honestly it's so affordable and nice.
This is the second time I have visited this store. The staff is attentive and helpful, but not bothersome. The inventory of new and used equipment is well stocked and fairly priced. My favorite part though is being able to "test drive" the guitars for sale!
Selling or trading gear at Guitar Center
Guitar Center 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 Guitar Center
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Guitar Center. 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.
