What's on the wall
“I took my Seagull acoustic guitar in Monday for fret level, crown, and polish work, based on a third-party recommendation.”
“I have bought guitars, basses, amps, pedals, microphones, cables, picks, even some percussion instruments here.”
“I’ve been going here for decades(this location and their old one north of here) and I’ve bought guitars, amps, strings, drum sticks and all things music.”
“I have perused their second-hand collection more times than I can count over the years, and come out with new gear a considerable fraction of those times.”
“So that's why I have purchased several items from here through the years, I had not yet experienced their workmanship for instrument repair, however.”
“Then they informed us of classes they had, other items they have, and things that they were more than happy to order for us.”
“I’ve been going here for decades(this location and their old one north of here) and I’ve bought guitars, amps, strings, drum sticks and all things music.”
“Some of the items we bought was a steel lap guitar, cabinet and amp a new seat, cables and a trumpet.”

From the reviews
First, I have to begin this post by saying the staff here is fantastic and they never make me feel like an idiot. So that's why I have purchased several items from here through the years, I had not yet experienced their workmanship for instrument repair, however.
I’ve been going here for decades(this location and their old one north of here) and I’ve bought guitars, amps, strings, drum sticks and all things music. How you know a store is great is by how they handle a challenge. Recently I treated myself to a guitar set up.
I was searching for an acoustic guitar that everyone said was on back order. I searched, and the Music Manor had one in stock. Every other place that showed them in stock actually didn't have it when I called. The Music Manor checked, and they did, in fact, have one, the only one in the lower 48.
I came in here about a week ago now looking at keyboards. I knew almost nothing when walking in the door but that changed during my visit. The staff here is nothing but helpful and genuine. They answered a lot of the questions I had plus ones I didn’t know I should have asked.
Selling or trading gear at Music Manor
Music Manor 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 Music Manor
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Music Manor. 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.
