From the reviews
Every experience that I have ever had at The Guitar Garage has been genuine. I have bought guitar, strings, straps and pedals. Jack has also set up four of my guitars. I Love that place and I highly recommend all local musicians visiting and shopping there. P.S. they also offer guitar, bass, drum and keyboard lessons!!
I brought 3 guitars here for repair. One with a pretty minor problem and 2 that needed to be completely rewired and required intense repairs. A few shops I had brought them too told me it wasn't worth it to fix them or quoted me outrageous prices.
Good selection of used guitars, acoustics, amps and other equipment from entry level to mid level and sometimes more. Found this IBANEZ RG350EX there so you never know. They also repair, set ups, string changes etc I had many modifications and repairs done over the years and never had issue .
Nice small little guitar shop in downtown Methuen. Went in to get my guitar repaired, and was an all around pleasant experience. The gentlemen who fixed my guitar was great, and the shop had a great atmosphere to it. Guitar strings are much cheaper than other stores as well. Will be back
Lessons at The Guitar Garage
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at The Guitar Garage. 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.
