From the reviews
I wanted to buy a guitar and take lessons so I went to local stores to learn more because I am a "blank slate" when it comes to music. Of all the places I checked out Guitar Planet was by far the most friendly and helpful. The owner Gannon, told me a lot about guitars and answered all my questions.
Guitar Planet has beautifully made guitars from Canada. The wood is responsibly sourced from Canada. Gannon, the owner, turned us on to some great deals. We are planning to return for another guitar. Love this Planet! ....... .We did return! Bought the Bourbon version of "LEGACY" Concert Hall Series.
Definitely the coolest guitar shop around. I've been going here since I was a tiny lil gremlin, and took lessons here for many years. The place has an awesome vibe, and the owner Ganin (hope I spelled that correctly? My apologies if not..
This is THEEEE BEST guitar shop in town. Hands down. Gannon is the bomb. I’ve been in the shop several times. They have ALWAYS been super friendly, glad you’re there, very knowledgeable and helpful. They have a great selection of guitars, equipment, and super quick with repairs.
Lessons at Guitar Planet
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Guitar Planet. 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 on hand for exactly this reason.
