Kind and knowledgeable staff. Low key, casual instrument and part shopping experience.

For the kind of shop they are. Their prices are actually extremely reasonable, I've been to other enthusiast level shops that are 20 to 40% more expensive than a big box, but their strings are essentially the same price, and a lot of the other guitar maintenance equipment is priced very similarly.They don't have many new guitars, actually. I don't think they have any. But I definitely wouldn't call the stuff they sell used. I'd call it vintage, It's the kind of place you want to look for grail guitars.TLDR: good prices on consumables, you might accidentally put a few thousand dollars on a credit card buying a guitar older than your dad though

Great selection of quality used gear and top notch customer service. I recently moved to the area and am glad to have found this place as there are not many options outside of the redundant big chain stores here.

Howard at Guru Guitars worked on my 1972 Yamaha FG-200 last year and man he did exactly what that old guit-box needed for a long time. It plays great!It’s high time to leave a five rating for Guru??

They performed a complete fret level and setup on my new electric 12-string and it plays and sounds magnificent. They are not only two very nice people, but their work is impeccable.

Little shop with a lot of character. The employee who helped me try to decide whether to repair a beloved old guitar was kind and competent. I will return for future guitar needs.

I came to them with a question about a guitar I was trying to refret and setup myself, and Zack and the folks at Guru guitars were amazingly helpful. I'm a very amateur luthier and never felt "talked down to" or criticized for my less than stellar work. I highly highly recommend these friendly knowledgeable folks for anything you need!

Friendly staff, incredibly knowledgeable and skilled luthiers, & honest opinions on the value of your instrument. I have bought several instruments at Guru, taken lessons and had my guitars repaired there. I can say, without reservation, that you will be incredibly happy with your experience at Guru.

Excellent service and staff. I have had mods installed and truss rods adjusted by Guru, both perfectly executed. Plus, they will clean and polish any guitar brought in for service!

If you need any type of repair or mod for any guitar, this is the place to go. Over the years, these guys have:- replaced the nut and set up a Martin acoustic- fixed a snapped headstock on a Gibson Les Paul Special (and made it even better than before than break!)- overhauled and dressed messed up frets on a Fender Jazzmaster- set up various other electrics- helped me triage noise issues with a mastery vibrato unit- gave very helpful advice on choosing pickupsOh, and they are always honest, courteous, and easy-going. If they can make it cheaper, they'll always suggest it. It's so nice to work with folks who obviously love what they do--the very opposite of your typical pushy salesman at a guitar chain.So why not support a local business who can make your guitars sound and play better than ever before? This is the place.
