From the reviews
Searched for two days and discovered Trojan City Music online. I spoke with the employee's about setting up an appointment to have a Les Paul set up. Staff stated, "Just come in and drop it off, let us know what you want done". Most of the other businesses request an appointment with consultation fee. Not here.
Great treasure in Troy. They have a good selection of equipment and can probably order or find what you might need. The staff is knowledgable, helpful and friendly. They are honest about what they can repair, do good work, and their prices are reasonable.
Awesome, very well organized store with friendly and incredibly helpful staff (and dogs!) They double checked the fit of case I was buying with a similar vintage guitar, and even though it didn't fit I took a chance and my guitar did!
I had a guitar that needed string adjustment done, I’m glad I found this place because they did a phenomenal job. My guitar is better than ever now. Truly did an amazing job, will definitely take all my music gear here from now on. Thank you so much for the great work
Selling or trading gear at Trojan City Music
Trojan City Music 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 Trojan City Music
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Trojan City 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 on hand for exactly this reason.
