Really thankful for Kirk taking his time with me. I am a beginner player and he asked me very helpful questions to make sure I got the type of guitar I wanted. He also played each type of guitar to show me the difference which was very helpful.

The best place in town for music lovers. The best staff, absolutely lovely tutors on the premises, a really solid selection of guitars/basses, plus the chance of the occasional oddity guitar coming through. Great deals, great service, great people, great music. Whats not to love?

Good music store, good instruments, but not much parking, and the location doesnt really give the business the store front draw!

Friendly staff and great selection. Son has bought both of his Electric guitars from them and had repairs done there. They are very helpful with allowing you to try before you buy.

One of them to maximum 3 music gear guitar stores et C. Staying in business so that guitarist like I can walk in and buy something off the shelf still. I dont mind buying things online but walking into a guitar shop is an experience in and of itself. Go there, use their services by gear, from what I can tell they sell used instruments so that they can stay afloat. I have plenty of new things too specially strings accessories and stuff like that, but these places are becoming hard to find and need the support the community so get your ass in there keep the music alive.

Dan Ernst Owner of grand central music is a Scum Bag with a Capital S.Bought a roland jx10 from him in feb 2013 said he had it professionally cleaned cause one of the keys did not respond.( shoulda took that as a sighn right there that this would go south.)Got the roland a week later patch buttons did not work cardtridge port was busted cause he shipped the cardtridge inside of the synth and the internal battery was dead.Talk to him about going to repair man he got upset and said his repair man pro clean it and made sure it was in running order.Took it to repair man costed 166.00 he begrudglingly said fine send him receipt.So rapair man did two weeks go by no response.The owner is a bser and a finagler.Do not support.Do not trust.Eventually we will cross paths Dan.Thats not a threat.Thats a promise.
