From the reviews
An unassuming exterior, but inside is a well stocked and clean store, with a competent and welcoming staff led by Skip Slaughter. I drove 2 plus hours from Anderson, SC because they had in stock the instrument I was interested in. They had it brought to the store on Friday so I could try it out on Saturday.
Was helped by an employee named Parker today in order to find a very specific guitar for a Christmas gift. It wasn't in stock so Parker patiently contacted the distributor and called me back twice to get me exact details. He then helped get the order inputted and let me know a delivery ETA.
I selected Ken Stanton music to take my Taylor 416CE for repairs to address an issue with it's pre-amp (ES 1.0) that has been a problem from the time I bought it 13 years ago. They were professional and knowledgeable. Scott is a Taylor guy himself so i had no problem leaving it with them to make the changes .
Gotta give equal credit to everyone at this stanton store for their great customer service which is something that has been hard to come by in this state for me since i moved here.
Lessons at Ken Stanton Music
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Ken Stanton Music. 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.
