What's on the wall
“So when my electric guitar (Ibanez) started sounding bad, I took it to them to get it serviced.”
“Awesome assortment of guitars and bass guitars.”
“Within moments of walking in my 13 year old son had been plugged in to an amp with an ukulele of his choice and was strumming away!”
“Only thing I can possibly say remotely "not postive," is they aren't the very best with complex repairs but they'll tell you exactly what you'll need to do.”
“They also offer music lessons for a variety of instruments.”

From the reviews
Kenny and the boys have taken care of me for over 20 years. They know your name and it's by far the absolute best guitar shop in the wider area. It's not a corporate money machine but a legit old school shop that actually cares about the musicians and listens to what they want and need. Love this store.
My band was in the area for a small midwestern tour. Our guitar players amp stopped working and we replaced the amp here the following day. The fellow working was very helpful and friendly. He set up my guitar player to test out amps that had features we were looking for.
My Jackson was starting to sound off after about 6 months so I brought it in a few days ago to get it restrung and to get the action adjusted. Give these guys 2-3 days and they’ll work miracles.
Again, always a good shopping experience. Knowledgeable & friendly staff, with a variety of merchandise to choose from. As online shopping becomes more common place, it's refreshing to still be able to shop in a physical business, were you can touch/inspect the items wished to purchase.
Lessons at Kenny's Music Shoppe
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Kenny's Music Shoppe. 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.
