Great shop. Chris is super approachable and knows a ton about guitars.
Good conversation and reasonable prices. What more can you ask?
Great place – needed a guitar for a few days for some recording sessions and they made it happen !
Chris was very helpful and accommodating even if i was a day early for his shipment…
I drove over an hour and a half to salida to go this shop and nothing else. I got there, and they were closed at least two hours early. Better call before you go, apparently they don’t keep the hours they post.

Wow! We used one of Jeff’s baritone guitars and one of his dreadnaught guitars in the studio and they provided such a beautifully rich and balanced sound. Such a warm and present sound . And although they’re not as good looking as Jeff, they don’t look to shabby either 😉 Soon you’ll be able to hear them for yourself on The Runaway Grooms new album ‘Tied to the Sun’. Thanks Jeff!
Tucked into downtown Salida is a guitar shop like none I’ve ever seen. Hard to say if the instruments tone or aesthetics is more beautiful. Add to that one of the friendliest shop owner/craftsman you could ever meet and you’ve got this place.
I’m a flat lander, I came to the mountains and forgot a humidifier for my instrument, the buzz was so bad. I panicked and tried to adjust the truss myself, Jeff saved the day!!! Very friendly and helpful, beautiful instruments in stages of construction!! Thank you Jeff!!! Lenny, probably don’t remember my wife and I, but I’m wearin your shirt in Iowa today, thank you!!!
