Great little store with a large selection. Lool at the Bisbee coloring book while youre there. Very cool place to stop and check out.
I absolutely love my records I purchased here. They were graded very accurately and also priced fairly. I am playing one of them now and it sounds fantastic. Audiophile pressing “Excellent Condition” was exactly that. This doesn’t happen often at record shops these days. I was just passing through on business, grabbed a coffee as usual and stumbled upon this little shop. The owner was very polite, courteous, and approachable . I am Definetly going to check this place out any time I am passing through.
We loved this book store. The owners were super friendly and helpful. We shop there when ever we are in Bisbee!
Have come in several times. Friendly service and an interesting mix of items. I also love the music they play in the background.
Place was weird. EVERY shelf had “no photography” posted on it. Employees (owners?) were unfriendly and we felt very unwelcome. Had a great selection of local books, but didn’t make a purchase because of the atmosphere.
Great book store, great selection of new and used books. BUT: ONE OF THE EMPLOYEES, AN OLDER GENTLEMAN, WAS PACING BACK AND FORTH WITH AGGRESSIVE BODY LANGUAGE, TELLING EVERYONE THAT THE STORE WAS CLOSING 20 MINUTES BEFOREHAND. HE OBVIOUSLY DID NOT WANT THE CUSTOMERS WHO WERE BROWSING TO BE THERE, AND EVEN STARTED TO CLOSE THE GATE BEFORE CLOSING TIME. I WAS GOING TO BUY A BOOK THERE, BUT WILL BUY ON AMAZON AS I DID NOT FEEL WANTED THERE.

The company visited a local Ren fair, and I bought my first bamboo flute. I’ve been playing it since then and I can never get over how beautiful the tone qualities are and just how much you can experiment with such a simple flute. This company really knows what it’s doing in terms of making instruments.
Nice people, but feel like I was lied to. I found them at the KC Ren Faire and was told they make all their instruments. Decided to give in a bit and buy my first Lyre Harp for $170. Seemed high for the quality, but handmade made it worth it. That was until I was on Amazon looking for a tuner and stumbled upon my exact Lyre and accessories for $55. I understand making a profit, but saying something is handmade and marking something up twice what you paid for it pretty messed up.

Luthier of the Gods…right here in Bisbee. So I find this guy in a simple search and he is just down the street. Turns out he is a guitar tech super hero. Not for nothin, he has skills. I just had Glenn go through several of my vintage guitars, Les Paul, Tele, Strat, even a Tonemaster. I’ve had work done in Phoenix at B & D Guitar etc. Glenn/Guitar Bazaar surpasses with knowledge, ability, value and ease of service from my humble experience. Check out the guitars he builds, I mentioned ‘luthier”. You gotta get one!
I was looking for someone to setup my new guitar, and stumbled on Guitar Bazaar, and the man behind the name, Glen. I went solely off of reviews, and decided to take a chance. Glen was amazing and made the task at hand seem, effortless as well as entertaining as he worked on my new guitar, and masterfully worked on a relationship with me. Glen wasn’t interested in how much he could charge me, but he was interested in developing a lasting friendship and relationship with a new customer. Glen went above and beyond to make sure I understood what he was doing as he worked on my guitar. and then too boot he tried to under charge me, he asked me if what he wanted to charge me sounded ok… I laughed and said no… please add an additional $50… I still don’t feel like that was enough, anyway… go check out Glen for any work you need done on your guitars, I promise, you will not regret it.
