What's on the wall
“You can test out different instruments like electric drumming kits, acoustic guitars, microphones, keyboards, and I'm sure there's some more I didn't see while there.”

“Went in to get my son an amp for his bass guitar 🎸 but ended up getting him a Yamaha acoustic instead.”
“One salesman pissed me off by telling me they didn't have any used amps under $100 when I had just looked at 5 of them minutes before, I slightly scolded him about it later.”
“Has the young man who check me out discuss with me about his work flow setup and knowledge of microphones.”
“They have guitar classes and it's really cool to see all the young future Rock Stars learning.”

From the reviews
First, this Guitar Center is incredibly impressive with the vast selection of nearly everything, and the ability to test out just about anything too. My teen and I just stopped in to check out the store but then remembered that we were in need of an adapter.
I’ve been to this location before years ago and had to stop in to get some gear. The selection was abundant and easy to find. I was able to get adapters for my gear. Has the young man who check me out discuss with me about his work flow setup and knowledge of microphones. He said he like the Neumann I agree 👌🏾.
Great experience here. They have a lot of guitars, amps, mics, DJ equipment, and all kinds of instruments. You can test almost everything and the staff was very helpful. I wanted to buy the entire Alice in Chains discography, but the record selection was not what I expected.
1959: Wayne Mitchell opened The Organ Center store on Sunset Boulevard, which focused on home and church organs. Over the course of musical generations the franchise has faced financial difficulties in A Changing times.
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.
