Awesome small town spot with a rather impressive selection and knowledgeable staff. Light-years better than GC or anywhere else Ive been in the area. Best setups Ive ever had as well, Dom will be the only one working on my guitars going forward.
This place is awesome. Staffed with incredibly knowledgeable people who seem to do this because the love guitars more than a quick buck. They took excellent care of my bass and guitar and helped me pick out a great Amp and case. Their prices are competitive with larger store fronts like Amazon as well! Ill be going back here for all my future guitar needs.
Always professional courteous knowledgeable staff on hand. They make you feel comfortable at whatever level of music youre at, beginner or advanced. Ive purchased many items here and plan on continuing to do so in the future.
This is the place folks, been in other music stores but no way I would consider a better place like Guitar Shop as my favorite ever, Chris and his Dad will go away and beyond to ensure you got top notch fair treatment, service and their commitment, I wish I would know this place years ago but it was never too late, guarantee you will not find better prices, quality and loyalty from The Guitar Shop at any other place. Thank you Guys for everything.
Absolutely outstanding service!!!! Called ahead, they looked up my part and had it sitting at the counter when I arrived. A+ Will do business here again because of the excellent service!!!!!
Love this shop. I cant walk in without buying a guitar! Knowledgable, friendly, professional staff. Highly recommend.
My twenty one yr old son has been coming here since he first became interested in guitar at sixteen. I started coming with him for my guitar needs as well. We both enjoy seeing everyone here on a regular basis as the staff are awesome people! Great deals from great folks! Guitars, guitar lessons, guitar repairs, guitar accessories and guitar Q&As all in a one stop shop! They also have other musical instruments and accessories.
Enjoyed looking around and speaking with the guy at the counter (maybe the owner?). Didnt buy anything as I was just visiting from out of town. The staff were very nice.
Great shop with great people. Good selection of guitars, both acoustic and electric and all the accessories to go with them
Great shop! Really knowledgeable very cool people!I bought a Gretsch electric with a Marshall modeling amp and a case with all accessories to start up.The guitar is freaking beautiful and the amp has so many settings it is endless fun!And the price was right!!! Great valueThanks to Jeff and Chris and the crew there, I will be bringing my friends from Augusta to the shop next time.Stop by the guitar shop you will be very pleased with the service and products on hand for sale.🇺🇸🤘🏻
Great place to buy equipment and accessories. I bought a great guitar at an awesome price. They have new and used equipment. Huge amount of inventory. Great staff. Friendly, courteous and professional.
Great staff, helpful and informative! Wonderful selection of music equipment. Enjoyed spending time discussing instruments and classic music from the past. They took time to answer my questions and I made a selection that pleased my interests along with a fair deal!
Very nice and helpful people. Helped me find a guitar. They also gave me a free sticker.
Well stocked, good prices & nice people
I loved that it was organised. I am 60 and wanted to purchase an acoustic guitar. I have a personal reason to want to learn at least one or 2 songs. I didnt want to spend a lot. The young man working went to a guitar and I liked it. He was really helpful and showed me the strings and which were which. He also helped me with picks. His knowledge of guitars helped me tremendously. Thank you so much.oh, I have learned a little already!🎼🎵🎶🎸
This is without a doubt the greatest Guitar shop in the upstate and possibly in the State. Ive been shopping with Chris for several years and Dom has worked on every guitar I own and if there is a more friendly, knowledgeable place I have yet to find it. Ive purchased amps and accessories for myself and my brother and thanks to their patience for the past year I finally purchased a new Gretch 6609 players addition in Cadillac Green and a Fender Custom Deluxe Tone Master amplifier and they sound great. Ive shopped all over for years and believe me you will never regret dealing with Chris at The Guitar Shop in Anderson.Thanks ChrisYour friend,Randy
Love it. Chris and his father have a great store. Good prices and selection.
These guys are killer, came in and went out happy. The dudes who run the place or whatever they are are awesome. The old dude was cool too. Came in looking to trade a guitar on left with more than I came for. So I will be a return customer
Check this place out before you go to Guitar Center! I did not expect this to be such a big store when I pulled in the parking lot, but they have a great selection of nice guitars. Much more than most mom & pop stores. The staff is attentive, knowledgeable, friendly and personable. I bought my American Preformer Telecaster back in February (for about $300 less than GC advertises the same model). I had some general set up issues when I got it home. I dont live in Anderson so it took me until May 22nd to get back up there. They took it no questions asked, and for no charge. The guitar tech took the time to sit with me, find out exactly what the issues were, and what my expectations and preferences were. He told me they normally set your new guitar up before you leave the store. He prioritized it above his other work, did a pro set up for me, and had it back to me within 2 hours. I was impressed with his knowledge and enthusiasm to to help. All the guys there make you feel like youre the priority(never had that at GC). I will use Guitar Shop for future repairs/maintenance. Im also likely to look there first for my next guitar. They give lessons too.
Buy my guitar strings there and have bought 3 guitar cases for 2 acoustic and 1 electric guitar. Always friendly and willing to help.
Been dealing with Chris for a long time. Great guys.
Best place in Anderson for all your guitar needs.
The absolute best place in Anderson for musical instruments and accessories. Chris is SUPER knowledgeable and friendly. Dominic is the best in the business at repair and setup work. Do yourself a favor and spend all of your money at The Guitar Shop.
Friendly staff, good prices
All youll need for guitar, bass, and a few odds and ends. The people are friendly and knowledgeable.
Great place, veterans discount on accessories and great service
WOW, What a great place!Friendly knowledgeable folks. Great prices and Super Service.Thanks Don for the setup and all the help guys.
I really enjoying myself when I go there the owner and staff are extremely helpful knowledgeable and polite for me and my friends its a One-Stop shop for all of our musical instruments apps accessories to straps they got it all get on down and see
Great customer service. Awesome selection and knowledge.
Employees are super friendly and always remember their customers. Theyre always so helpful
Highly recommend, and the people that run the place are kind and cool
My absolute favorite music/guitar shop in the world. The environment is much more laid back and inviting than places like Guitar Center. The guys who work at the shop are extremely friendly and knowledgable and always willing to answer any questions or just have a nice conversation. They are also a Fender dealer, so theyve got a fantastic selection of Fenders, Squiers, and EVHs. I actually got my first Fender Jaguar from these guys and couldnt be happier with it. I really cant recommend this place enough.
Excellent selection, super knowledgeable and friendly staff, and really works with you to get what you need.
Staff was very helpful and kind all in all a great experience!
If you love the band Seven Year Witch then you need to go here! Plus its just and awesome store in general.
I love this shopj..Chris is agreat guy .Real good selection of guitars.. The PRS is perfect.
Awesome customer service and well knowledged employees.
I scored an Amp from here for a really good price. The customer service was excellent! They helped me get the right amp for the job. They also have an amazing selection of reasonably priced guitars, strings, and accessories. Im glad I stopped in and happy with my purchase. They made a customer for life out of me.
All the guitars are tuned and ready to give em a try! Everyone is helpful and friendly.
GREAT selection and GREAT service!! I met Chris (owner) when I bought a great guitar from him and loved the way it played. He told me his set-up/guitar technician had done all the work on all his guitars so I proceeded to bring a total of nine (9) of my other guitars (yes, Im a classic guitar nut-case!) to his tech, Dominic, over the past couple of years, and they all now play the BEST they ever have in the years Ive owned them!! Dominic is the best guitar tech I have found, and I live in the Atlanta area where there are many choices, but I choose to drive 2+ hours to Anderson just to do business with Chris and Dominic at The Guitar Shop! Really great guys, great instrument selection and outstanding service! A visit there will be a great experience guaranteed! AAA+
Im never going anywhere else. Everything Ive gotten from them is outstanding and reasonably priced. Super knowledgeable and friendly. Would recommend!
Awesome shop! Will never visit a Guitar Center ever again as long as I am in upstate South Carolina! Super friendly staff helped me through their entire awesome selection of instruments, and helped me out from test driving all the way to walking out the door with my brand new Alvarez. Thank you Guitar Shop!!
This is a nice little shop prices are good and employees are super nice and very helpful. A lot better than the big retail chain music stores where its hard to get any help at all.
Nice place and friendly staff. Found it completely by accident and they were closing soon but Ill definitely be back soon.
Visited for the First time last weekend. Was a great experience. Very Friendly customer service and they carry alot of great gear. Ended up buying two pedals for an awesome deal! Would Recommend to everyone looking for a good music store!
Super nice staff, talked to Chris who was very helpful. Product knowledge/experience is 5 stars for him. Nice selection of guitars, would recommend more accessories. Prices were better than most, but definitely come here for A+ service. Ill be back for my next purchase.
Great shop!Bought my Takamine acoustic at Guitar Shop and love it... really nice guitar and at a better price than I could get it anywhere else.Friendly, knowledgeable & fair price. Chris matches or beats the online deals and they set them up and service right here in Anderson.Occasionally you can find great deals on used gear also. Picked up a used acoustic amp (SWR) at a really good price.
Had a great experience. Purchased my son a beautiful Magenta guitar, at a great deal. Very friendly, very helpful. These people love the music no doubt! I felt they wanted to sell us a guitar because of the music. Look forward to more business here!
This place has helped me fix my bass on numerous occasions. The repairs were done quickly and they were done well. The prices are great, and the staff is friendly. Definitely my go-to shop for everything I need.
Extremely friendly people. Walked in looking for a base and walked out with a base, acoustic, ukulele, cases, picks, extra strings, stand, and a shirt. Great prices and was very helpful. My new favorite guitar place.
This place is awesome! Staff is great,My instructor is great,SUPER good selection. Im glad I found this place!
Dominic did an awesome job on my daughters guitar. It was my grandfathers & its over 40 years old & looked it. After he put new strings on, cleaned it up, and worked his magic it looks brand new. And he finished the job a few days earlier than predicted. Will return for all my guitar needs. Everyone was very nice.
Great place with an impressive inventory and friendly folks.
The folks there are very helpful and kind. They sell some high quality guitars and other musical goodies
I dropped by my first time to check out the guitars. Very IMPRESSED! Great store with a good feel and prices on gear. Chris and his Dad will help you out. This is my music store now Thanks!
Always great doing business with Chris! Ive bought many guitars from him. All at great prices. Best guitar store in Anderson. Fender, Gretcsh, and Marshall dealer. Just picked up PRS guitars as well. Come check it out!
Best guitar store Ive been to always friendly he gives off great deals and are awesome at repairs would raid 10/10
Best store
I had a Epiphone Les Paul that I needed to have set up. Called around to a few other local shops for prices on a basic set-up, and these guys had the best price by far. Dropped the guitar off and picked it up 2 days later. They did a great job and went above what I expected for the basic set-up. Really friendly guys and nice little shop!
A huge shout out to Chris De Vido at The Guitar Shop. I dropped my guitar off this past week to have some work done and told him I had to have it back by Sunday Moring. It’s been a crazy weekend and I had forgotten that I had dropped it off. Guitar Shop closes at 5pm today but I get a call from Chris at 5:10pm reminding me that I had not picked up my guitar. He told me that if I can come soon that he will wait on me. That’s customer service above and beyond and this is why I would never shop anywhere else. Thank You!!!
Always helpful staff. Not pushy. Prices are competitive. Weve bought 2 guitars and 1 bass from them. All are great instruments.
They fixed the fret buzz on my vintage guitar and their guitar strings are reasonably priced. I was extremely impressed with the hospitality of the staff. Chris was very helpful and Roy (I think his name was) did a great job!
Best music shop in the upstate. The owner, Chris is a super nice guy. Dominic, the repair tech is very knowledgeable and has over 30 years experience in instrument repair. Plus they are now Andersons exclusive Fender dealer!
This place is like a second home to me
Great staff and very knowledgeable. Makes you feel like family. Also a good line of products.If you like Takamine guitars they have a very large selections. The best I have seen in our area.Prices are reasonable and service outstanding. Also repair first class.Would definitely recommend for your playing needs.
This guitar store is the worst.... Owner is very rude, and even told me to take my business elsewhere if i did not like it! Wow... There is much nicer music store right down the road called Draisen Edwards Music. I am a veteran of the US Army and i feel like i should be treated with a little respect! Much more friendly and knowledgeable staff, and way better selection and prices!!
I hope itll get alot better! There nice and friendly. Just dont have alot of decent basses.
Got a new INS ulkeule
Love this place..The owners are so friendly and helpful..The place just has a great atmosphere about it..Highly recommended
The 1st and last choice to go to for musical needs. Chris, Dom and Chriss Dad really know how to treat customers to buying a pack of strings to spending a couple Grand on your dream guitar... Excellent service, great gear and best prices...
We love The Guitar Shop! They are kind, courteous and very helpful. So happy to have found them!
Very professional and helpful. They also have a layaway program for those that need it!
Wow. Huge selection. Great prices. Helpful and friendly employees. I want to buy my next guitar here. And Im looking forward to it
FINALLY, A GREAT GUITAR SHOP IN ANDERSON!! The CUSTOMER SERVICE is the BEST!! I had an input jack fall out the day of a performance, called them up and it was taken care of the minute I went in and only took 10 minutes . Great tech that knows his stuff. The repair wasnt just a band aid, The jack was replaced with a higher quality jack and the price COULDNT BE BEAT!!! To anyone needing repairs at a VERY HONEST price and WORKMANSHIP, GO HERE, you wont be disappointed and most repairs can be done same day or a short waiting. I believe the techs name is Don. THANKS SO MUCH ON SUCH SHORT TIME!!
If you need guitars, gear, and guitar repairs this is the store you need to come to. Draisen Edwards is garbage compared to The Guitar Store. Everyone who works here are nice and helpful. Also they have a great selection of instruments.
These guys are friendly, knowledgeable, and the guitar tech knows proper setup and repair. Really good storefront also with quality merchandise.
The best one stop shop for anything guitar related! Great prices, great staff!
Very personal service!!. Best guitar inventory in town. Reasonable prices. My new favorite guitar shop.
Always polite and helpful. Highly recommend.
I took my guitar in for a setup and they did an amazing job! They even cleaned and polished my guitar as well and it has never sounded better!
Very helpful crew! Glad to be able to take lessons here.
These guys are awesome. Great shop. Cool guitar tech and beautiful guitars at good prices.
Been coming here over 3 yrs.still have 14 guitars from this store love them all, wouldnt dream of going anywhere else.Chirsand Bernie are awesome always helpful and willing to listen.Dr.Dom is the only tech I would even think about letting work on my instruments.works wonders.Thanks to everyone at the shop for making my re-entry to music fun and lasting.you guys are the best
I went in looking for a new neck for my G&L Chris was awesome he helped me with contact information for G&L Factory in California and took the time to just talk to me about my concerns and let me walk around his shop to see what he has really nice people very friendly very helpful I like supporting the little guys in this time of big Corporation markets
A absolute must for any player. Amazing staff and amazing prices. Bought a fender California classic acoustic electric and also a gretch new yorker that im absolutely overwhelmed with happiness about. Thanks guys!
Chris and Dom are pros! Ive known them both for a long time, and combined, they have more knowledge than anyone around. Ive shopped the other music store, and found the staff(most of them) self indulging in their own playing time. Im not going anywhere to jam, Im going to shop.
Awesome people! hooked me up with now my favorite guitar and a huge discounts!
Nice and knowledgeable staff. Great repair, set up, and customization from Dominic. Very large selection of guitars, mandolins, ukuleles, and amps. Wonderful atmosphere as well.
Great guitar shop to go to, service is far superior to Draisen Edwards (the other guitar shop in Anderson). Chris is great to work with, and they now carry Fender, which is a huge plus!
If you like instruments this is the place for you. They sell guitars, bass, amplifiers, ukeleles, and other things. They also do overpriced lessons 30$ for 30 mins. I bought my little brother a really nice bass for his birthday for an AMAZING price!
Quality service, great variety and quality of equipment, and a knowledgeable store owner makes for an amazing experience!
Great bunch of guys. No hard sell, they just let us shop. Good prices too.
Il say that the gentleman were very nice there. Thing is, we stopped off a base to be re-stringed. Also 2 of the tuner knobs were lost but the things are easy to take off and put on and they are interchangeable. They said that they didnt have the tuners and said theyd look around to see if they could find them and if not theyd quote a price to replace all the tuners. Ok no biggy. Over a week later they said we could pick it up and when we got there nothing had been done to the base guitar at all. They were so concerned about the tuners that they didnt even change the strings. They didnt pay attention to anything we told them about the knobs being interchangeable. They loosened everything and it was a pain to get it all tightened up again. We ended up changing the strings ourselves. I really thought a music store would know how all this stuff works... I guess Competence is hard to find.
This place is excellent. Great customer service
Friendly shop with personal care to the artist regardless of age. My 12 year old grandson felt at ease while he was shopping
Andy is giving my 6 year old guitar lessons and its going well. I highly recommend them!
These guys are AWESOME... VERY WILLING TO HELP
My daughters favorite store! They are very helpful!
Great selection pricing and service. HIGHLY recommend you shop here....LOCAL business!
