“I was picky even as a beginner, I also attended 3 lessons here which helped me by letting me watch a pro guitarist and then seeing how he approached playing and hos movements.”

From the reviews
I've been involved with Stone Soup Coffeehouse for decades. When I talk with local musicians about instruments they always recommend Wakefield Music. It's a bit of a drive for me but the trip is worth it to benefit from their expertise and selection of instruments.
Can’t say enough good things about Wakefield music ! Friendly knowledgeable staff with an amazing selection of Acoustic guitars , banjos, mandolins you name it !! Brought my Taylor 214 in for small repair and it was fixed and tuned up within an hour ! Give them a shot I think you’ll be happy !
Really nice shop. The guitar tech spent over an hour speaking with me about a recent purchase and letting me A/B it versus some Martin they had in stock. Got some great advice and didn't feel pressured to buy something I wasn't ready to commit to. Worth a visit and support.
Very helpful local music store. They go out of their way to get you what you need. My clarinet playing child (as well as my wife) and my flute playing child have been in here often for music, supplies or repairs. It really helps to have a local music store in our community!
Lessons at Wakefield Music Co
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Wakefield Music Co. 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.
