From the reviews
I have been searching for a hard-shell wood case for my acoustic guitar for quite some time now. After searching online, I was finally able to find one that fit my guitar here. So, I placed my order online and headed to the store after receiving notification that my case was ready for pickup.
I took my son to buy an electric guitar here. I was very happy with all the information he gave us and the guitar he sold us is perfect to start learning to play ! This place offers allot of classes and the salesman really knew he's stuff! I was very impressed with the entire place!
For the last 20 years I have spent every Christmas dollar on gear but let me tell you this experience took the cake. 10/10 I had bought a piece of gear off of musicians friend at what I thought was an unreal steal. Surprised by a call from Mr.
We went looking for a drum set at Guitar Center in Lewisville. They did not have what we needed so we called the Guitar Center in Dallas and they said that they had a specific drum kit that we needed. When we got there we found out the drum kit was not there in stock so we tried for an acoustic drum kit.
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.
