From the reviews
I bought an open-box guitar online and when it arrived, the strings were in pretty rough shape. I went into the Coconut Creek location to see what could be done, and Paul Crosta in the repair department completely took care of me.
The Guitar Center in Coconut Creek is an exceptional place for any musician, whether you’re a seasoned professional or just beginning your musical journey. The store is visually impressive, offering a vast selection of guitars, musical instruments, and complete drum kits—my personal favorite.
I’m happy that a Guitar Center is here. Of course it’s a chain, but it’s one of the better guys around. The staff members try their best to be knowledgeable although sometimes it doesn’t work out. They’re happy to demo their products so you can get hands on knowledge. And you can sign up for lessons and teaching.
This place is always fun to visit even if you're not actually purchasing something lol. We love to just go in and check out the new stuff. The staff is always so friendly and knowledgeable. Really cool vibe and cool stuff as well as great prices.
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.
