Aloha, everytime I drop into Big Island Guitar, I am able to get the service I need for my guitar accessories. Excellent workmanship and great prices! Spencer is extremely helpful and knowledgeable about his products and what I need serviced.
Wow! Amazing customer service! Crazy good selection of guitars. My sons rented a guitar for our stay in Hilo. Thanks for taking such great care of them!
Simply the best. I have been going to music stores for 50 years, and worked in a couple on the mainland, with friends also owning and working in several. No one gives better discounts or is a more customer service oriented shop. The best of both worlds! Sincerely, “Master of Space and Time”.
Spencer is a very personable individual who is very knowledgeable. The store itself is quaint and stock can be limited but it has pretty much everything that’s needed in general.
Drove an hour , website said open, answering service said open, closed during advertised business hours.

Didn’t buy a guitar but treated myself to an awesome set of polarized bamboo shades here!! The person that checked me out was very nice and helpful! Quality place and stuff!
Wandered in looking for an ukelele for my son and ended up staying for over an hour chatting. Uncle offered us an honest opinion on which uke to buy and gave ME an impromptu lesson. I learned more in the thirty mins with him a than I’ve learned in the last few months of playing. What a gem. The store and owners. We stopped back once more before we left the island and will be back next time we’re here.
This is a nice store with a knowledgeable and fun owner. Because of the prime location expect to pay retail prices. You can find cheaper prices if you shop around. I bought from him because he engaged my son and made it fun.
Unfortunately I can’t give 5 stars because the owner was unavailable to give lessons. He said he’s too busy and looking for a teacher, so things may change. I ended up taking my kids 2 blocks away to Hilo Ukulele and Guitar. Rick there gave the kids low priced lessons and threw some discounts for merchandise.
I guess if that store wasn’t available, I’d give this place a 5 star review. But competition does exist, which is great, so a solid 4 stars from me.
It’s a nice place and they have good quality.
