Group Classes
We’re so excited to be offering our Spring After School Beginning Guitar Classes –
This 8 week program is designed to introduce kids to the wonderful world of music through the use of guitar playing and learning how to critically listen to music. Our instructors work with the children and teens to promote learning and experiencing music without intimidation. The program concludes in early June with a short performance open to the public. The after school program is designed not only to be fun and exciting, but also to help the students develop a deepened sense of musical phrase, structure and form, as well as improve their performance skills.
Our sign up deadline is April 10th, and classes are filling up fast!

New American Standard Strats are here!
These guitars are gorgeous. They are made with a newer finishing style, a thinner finish on the body, allowing the guitar to resonate more, and a finished fretboard. There are a ton of other new features on this line of instruments. They look great and we’ve got a half a dozen in our store right now and they’ve got to be played. Come by and check em out.

New Gear Coming in from NAMM
We’re in Anaheim this week scouting out all the new gear for 2008 at the NAMM show. If you’ve never been, it’s a huge international music industry trade show that’s closed to the public where all the companies show off their new stuff (and you get to see drunken rock stars roaming the hallways). It’s a guaranteed good time, and be sure to come by the store next month when we’ll be receiving all of our new equipment.
And who knows, maybe we’ll be picking up some serious new guitar lines…..
A look at our current product lines can be found HERE.
