From the reviews
I did a random search of a music store and found Sussex County Music. Took my vintage bass in beat up and battered. John, replaced strings tuned it repaired it and put a lot of care into it. Bass has never looked or sounded so good. Great price I will recommend this business to friends and family.
This is the best music store you can go to. The owner John is a professional musician and takes very good care of his customers. Great prices that rival Amazon and the big chains, but personalized service that you cannot get elsewhere. Buy a guitar there and John will set it up for you.
Great place for new and used gear, as well as top notch guitar repair. The owners John and Mike are both local guitar legends and take great pride in their service. They also offer music lessons for many different intruments and skill levels.
This music store is very good. They have a great stock of electric guitars, acoustic guitars, amps, ect. I've been here twice. The first time was 2 months ago. I cam back about a week ago and they remembered me. Now that's good service when the workers remember you from one visit 2 months ago.
Lessons at Sussex County Music
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Sussex County Music. 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.
