Vintage Guilds From Rhode Island!
Every now and then a vintage Guild will find its way into Zach's Attic, but not often two from the same year! Check out the G-37 'BL' and D-40 Bluegrass Jubilee both made in Westerly, R.I, 1979.
Although they are from the same year and have similar qualities, the D-40 and the G-37 feel and play differently. Check them out!
Latest G&L ASAT Bluesboy Arrivals
G&L ASAT Classic Bluesboy Semihollow electrics are very popular with our customers. Versatile guitars with a range of tones from bite and growl to laid-back and bluesy, they have more tricks than a standard Tele-style guitar.
We just received two of these instruments - this one in classic Two-Tone Sunburst with an upgraded Seymour Duncan Seth Lover humbucker in the neck position, and another in a super-cool Blonde finish.
See lots more info and photos on our G&L page. Click HERE for the Two-Tone Sunburst, and HERE for the Blonde.

Martin 000 Jr-10 SALE!!!
These Martin 000 Jr-10 guitars are a great alternative
if you are looking for a smaller guitar that does not compromise on sound.
Martin makes these guitars in the shape of a 000 but shrunk down to fit smaller players and for ease of travel.
The all solid wood sapele and Sitka spruce yields a warmer and fuller sound than expected from the body size. (Sale also includes Martin 000C Jr-10E with cutaway and pickup)
If you would like to see the sale price feel free to call or inquire here.
New and Vintage Martins
Martin guitars never fail to impress and our new D-18 is no exception. This iconic guitar has just arrived from the Martin workshops in Pennsylvania and it demands to be played! We also have a vintage 1975 D-35 with the full-bodied tone that only a vintage guitar can produce. Click here to watch Zach's video comparing three legendary Martins. (Unfortunately, the Martin HD-28 in the video has been sold and is no longer available.)
Looking for a Pre-owned or Vintage Instrument?
How about this vintage 1993 Rickenbacker 620 in Jetglo Gloss Black?
A small and comfy solidbody design with a neck-through body and maple neck with the reddish Bubinga fretboard. Great for rock n' roll with the Hi-gain pickups. Excellent condition with minimal play wear. Offered at $1,699.00 in original Rickenbacker hardshell case.

In-Person Lessons Are Back
We have been offering only online lessons since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. But beginning in September, some of our teachers are offering in-person lessons again. Masks are required, and we ask you to wait in your car instead of our waiting room.
We completely understand if you're not comfortable yet with in-person lessons, so our teachers are still offering online lessons as well.
Either way, give us a call or send us a message via our Ask Us! page. Don't forget, all our teachers offer free no-obligation trial lessons.

You Can Listen To Our Guitars
The sound character of an acoustic guitar is really impossible to convey with just words. The best way to appreciate a guitar is to hear it in person.
To help you decide whether it's worth the trip to try a guitar in person, we've made short recordings of some of our best instruments. more >>>
