mixed bag 12/15/2011

I had heard great things about this store. I was looking to purchase a guitar, and finally had a chance to check it out. I was never greeted, even after playing several different guitars for half an hour. I thought the selection was not great either (at least for guitars under the $3000 mark.) Any used guitars? Did I miss an entire room? They did have a great selection of accessories, unique instruments (not a single fretless banjo though), and books/cds. The music school did look like a great asset also with lots of options. more

Excellent Source for Your Stringed Instrument 4/29/2010

There is a definite parking challenge if you want to go to Dusty Strings. It was worth the multiple trips around the block just to find parking at a paid lot, because this store is awesome! You have to walk down some stairs from street level, but once you're in this cute, cozy shop, you will be impressed by their selection of guitars, ukes, and other stringed instruments. I was there to look at ukes. This was the first shop where someone seemed to be very informed about ukes and willing to listen to my needs!! Their ukes range from ukes for kids ($30) up to some as high as $1,000! Many choices of wood and brands. I'll be back for sure. Pros: Service, Knowledgeable Staff Cons: Parking more
