From the reviews
I just wanted to say that I went to Russo music store for the first time to repair my fender guitar. From the moment I entered there was a line of customers and the sales representative behind the counter ( jimmy) had a big smile and greeted me. His personality was bubbly and very welcoming.
Love to walk in without knowing much about the different options and they are able to guide you to the best options within your budget. Was waiting to get an amp for about 20 years. After 1 minute of describing what I was looking for, salesman thought about a few options and recommended exactly what I was looking for.
Always have what I'm looking for. Knowledgeable & courteous staff. Best prices. Everything a musician could ask for, & more! Highly recommended! Update. Picked up a few more treasures over the past several months...
Really cool music store Eric in guitars was amazing super helpful got me set up with what I need at the price I needed to be at. Thank you so much.
Selling or trading gear at Russo Music Hamilton
Russo Music Hamilton 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 Russo Music Hamilton
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Russo Music Hamilton. 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.
