OMG I didn't know they still exist. My sister and I took classes there over a decade ago. My guitar teacher taught me Metallica's Call of Cthulhu and it was the ONLY song my husband and I could agree on tonight. So I had this fond memory. Anyway I hope this place is still rocking because they were awesome and hold a very special place in my heart.

This is by far the best mom and pop.music shop left in Brooklyn cool little place Guitars are priced to sell They give lessons and definitely a great repair shop The turn around on repairs is so quick sometimes they tell me to grab some food and come back in an hour Highly recommend going there. If you have a Floyd rose equipped guitar don't waste your time going anywhere else but here they know how to do the set UPS the right way
