From the reviews
Fantastic place. Really nice guys running the place. They did a great job setting my Electric Guitar up. Even leveled my Frets to get rid of a string buzz problem I was having. I'll definitely be taking my other Guitars to them when they need maintenance.
I came in looking to try out a few different types of acoustic guitars and the owner Jake was super helpful and friendly. They showed me the ins and outs and let me try whatever I wanted. I also got a demonstration of some cool guitar effects that I haven't seen anywhere else.
Jake did something for me that no other music shop has done for me....and that was sell me some fret wire that wasn't in their inventory or even something that they stock.
I (Dan White) just walked in when in the area and was really welcomed by owner Jake. I saw he had a used Loar honey creek mandolin and asked if I could play it. He agreed and he picked up a guitar and we jammed together for quite awhile. My son was with me and we ended up buying it for a really good price.
Selling or trading gear at High Strung Guitars
High Strung Guitars 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.
