What's on the wall
“I didn't take the time check out the acoustics this g 'round, but it is on my list for my next visit.”
“I now have two of the coolest basses I have found anywhere and the bass amp I have been looking for that is quite light, but sounds like a led sled full of funk and clear detail!”
“Most used and new real gear I’ve seen in town.”
“I visited the store for a bass lesson with Billy Sheehan but thoroughly enjoyed meeting the owners.”

From the reviews
The absolute coolest guitar store in Middle Tennessee. K. Butler Guitars and An ENORMOUS selection of Reverend guitars! Great and fair prices, and the nicest staff anywhere. True professionals.
Picked up a PRS from Tone Central Station. Jamie showed me all of his favorites in the store. This really helped me make a decision. Great selection of guitars that you won’t find at your big box store. Very friendly staff, will definitely be going back for my next guitar purchase.
Highly recommend. Nice acoustic guitars and a wide range of electric. Plus all the accessories you could dream of! Great vibes & fantastic customer service - the guys there were super helpful & informative. Came here for my first real acoustic guitar & I couldn’t be happier. This place is a music city gem, for sure!
The team behind Tone Central Station is awesome. Located next to Living Waters Brewery, this local music store is exactly what East Nashville needed. Passionate and knowledgeable employees, and a great selection of music equipment. So happy to have stumbled upon it.
Selling or trading gear at Tone Central Station
Tone Central Station comes up for buying and trading used gear, going by their listing and players’ reviews. 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.
