From the reviews
Super friendly and helpful staff. Went in for an acoustic guitar and was out with my new guitar in under 30 minutes.
Visited this location off Fowler Street in Fort Myers and was absolutely blown away with the service my son and I received from Carlos. He tuned the guitar my son had just gotten for Christmas. He also helped him pick out some new strings and pack of picks to see which ones he felt most comfortable with.
Carlos & the guys took great care of me! I came in looking for a specific drum kit. They searched their location and others to find just what I was looking for! After helping me load up, I was drumming that same afternoon! Great location. Great staff. Awesome selection. Highly recommend.

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.
