Most of our customers prefer to drop in, spare of the moment.  For those, we are open 6 days a week, Monday - Saturday!

Others prefer making an appointment.  Making an appointment is as easy as calling the store at 805-237-0054.  You can also email us.  Provided our schedule permits, same day, immediate, and evening appointments are always welcomed.

Be sure to print out our directions page for our exact whereabouts.

Plan to spend awhile with us.  It is helpful for clients to either come alone or with another guitar lover.  We have found that our clients can more leisurely enjoy their visits here if they do not have friends or family members "waiting" for them.  (send them off for downtown shopping, spa massage, or wine tasting!) 

We can customize your visit more efficiently by finding out a bit about what you would like to see.  

Tell us about yourself...
