Good Things Come in Threes

Gretsch Jim Dandy guitars are back in stock but don't dawdle too long, they tend not to hang around here for very long!

We don't often see these types of instruments in the shop used:

In the back: '99 Taylor 510ce

 Larrivee LO3 Quilted Maple with K&K Pure Mini pickup

Happy Holidays to You!!

Twice as Nice

Or naughty depending on your outlook!

We have the last of our Taylor Guitars 2016 order just in today and what a nice finish it is! On the left: 322e - On the right: 214ce Koa. 

Nothing Says Christmas Like A Mandolin!

At least we think so!

A rare Ovation mandolin (used)-stop in before the elves beat you to it!

*SOLD*

New Taylor and Yamaha Guitars JUST IN!

The 'Sunburst Twins' just landed!

Yamaha FG830 in front / FS830 behind

Taylor 314ce 

The irrepressibly cute Yamaha APX T2! We have it in black and vintage sunburst as well.

Water Water Everywhere...

...hopefully in your guitar, too!

Yes, it's that time of year again to humidify your guitars. Wakefield Music stocks the Oasis and Planet Waves guitar humidifiers that we use on our own instruments and you should, too. So watch those hygrometers and if you see moisture levels dropping below 40%, it's best to start up your machines at home and/or put a humidifier in your acoustic guitar right away. You'll know it's time when new fret buzzes appear, fret ends on unbound necks stick out and feel sharp, and tops 'sink' or warp affecting action and possibly split or the finish 'crazes'. 

We Had Twins!

Taylor 114's that is:

It's hard to believe you can buy a full scale Taylor guitar made in North America with a solid top and ebony fretboard and bridge for under $500!

*SOLD*

And yes that's a '14 Gibson LG-2 (w/pickup) behind them just in last week. ;)

If you haven't heard the rumors, these Taylor 562ce 12-string guitars with their 5-series sized bodies and 12-fret neck join are twice as fun as their bigger brother 12-strings.
