From the reviews
Lititz Music Company is really a cool place. They have a massive selection of guitars and records, with a few electric pianos and the occasional drum set. Ben really knew his stuff, and I could tell he had plenty of experience!
We were visiting family in the Philly area, and decided to peruse Lititz, PA. My son has been asking to learn guitar for a while now. We happened to come across this store and the staff were more than accommodating. My son felt very comfortable and was provided beginner guitar choices.
Ben is a very polite guy and easy to talk to. He helped me trade my Martin guitar for a gorgeous antique violin. I even got my first guitar here a few years ago and I remember him being just as polite and helpful then as well. The store itself is so cool and I love going in there.
I loved this shop, I’m not from the area so I went inside to visit just to kill time and had a wonderful experience. This store is very nice and has a great variety of records and musical instruments. I also loved the interior. The staff I met there was a bundle of joy.
Selling or trading gear at Lititz Music Co.
Lititz Music Co. 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 Lititz Music Co.
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Lititz Music Co.. 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.
