🤝 fair trade-in offers 3 mentions

“Jay answered a million questions, helped me pick specs, and gave me a very fair price on a custom Anderson guitar.”

From the reviews

I purchased a Rivolta Combinata from Matt’s Music Center and it arrived on Monday. The guitar is beautiful and plays absolutely amazing! I can only assume that it was professionally setup by Matt’s because it plays perfectly.

The first guitar I bought. San Dimas, original factory in California, guitar. Lent to my nephew for 18 years. Found with a broken neck in his basement. The Jackson Guitar people recommended Matt's in Massachusetts to look at it. Got it back a few days ago. Just played it for an hour. Incredible repair work.

★★★★★ — Steven, Apr 2021

Picked up a used Nash Bass from Matt’s. Had a couple guitars to trade in. Everything went flawlessly. Was able to sit and try out the bass while the employees were going over my trades. Seamless transaction. A little bit of a ride for me but absolutely well worth the trip.

★★★★★ — Chris, Apr 2025

Matt's Music is a spectacular shop. Jay answered a million questions, helped me pick specs, and gave me a very fair price on a custom Anderson guitar. He couldn't have been nicer to deal with. I 100% recommend Matt's.

Lessons at Matt's Music Center

Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Matt's Music Center. 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.
