From the reviews
I purchased a guitar last week and spent about 2 hours trying it out. Amazing experience. I got the guitar, an amp, a stand, picks, and a cable all for under $600. The entire staff, I mean every single employee I spoke with, was very knowledgeable, helpful, and had a sense of humor.
I visited quite a few music stores recently and the guitar center in North Attleboro has the largest selection of electric and acoustic guitars around. They offer a good variety of guitars starting at $160 and up. The staff was pleasant and didn’t bother me until I asked for help.
Great folks. Joshua and the rest of the team helped me sort through the huge selection and pick out my first guitar, a used Ibanez RG5EX1. They were kind and patient and respectful. Even tuned it and set me up with a few accessories for free, which was above and beyond. Definitely earned my business!
I came here to get my daughter her first guitar. I not only found one but it was made for her. the smile and hugs where all worth it. thank you for making it an easy purchase. beyond happy with the whole experience A+ staff and awesome experience
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.
