I had such a wonderful experience at Moze Guitars yesterday! Gene was incredibly kind, helpful and patient as I shopped for a ukulele, which I knew nothing about. I felt like he truly cared, which is a breath of fresh air these days. Thanks for taking such great care of me and providing a memorable customer service experience! We will be back. :

Been coming here about 16 years now. The staff is very knowledgeable, friendly, and easy to communicate with. I've never had any issues with them. Their guitar work is stellar! They are what a local guitar shop ought to be!

I first met Moze in 1978. He built me a birdseye maple dreadnaught that sounds great today, 44 years later. He also built me a classical guitar in 1979 that sounds silky smooth, but has plenty of punch. His craftsmanship is superior. This year he turned my 1980's Gibson L6-S into a beast, by installing Seymour Duncan Invaders as the bridge pickups and Seymour Duncan 59's for the neck pickups. Truly a legend in his own time! If you need a guitar repaired, or adjusted, go to the best in San Diego.

Great guys, they greet me every time I come in (even though i'm probably a nuisance) and are very welcoming. The prices are great and the service is greater. They've got the best selection of used tube amps (and solid state) ever. I wouldn't be surprised if my next amp comes from these guys. They also don't lock up their guitars (ahem, Guitar Center) so you're free to play any instrument, as long as you treat it with respect.

The selection is great too, anything from Squiers, to MIJ Lawsuit era's, to MIA Fenders & Gibsons. They even let you plug into the amps and don't yell at you for going past 1 on the volume (once again, GC would).
