Where We Are
We're on the second floor of The Shirt Factory in Glens Falls, one of the more interesting buildings in the region. It's a converted 1902 shirt mill that's become a hub for artists, makers, craftspeople, and independent businesses. Painters, photographers, woodworkers, jewelers, and now a guitar shop. The building has a creative energy that fits what we do. Use the Cooper Street entrance and take the stairs up. If stairs are difficult or you're bringing in something you don't want to carry up, call or text us and we'll arrange access.
What's on the Wall
We regularly stock Player II Stratocasters and Telecasters. Vintera III for vintage-spec voicings. Jazzmasters, Jaguars, and Mustangs come through regularly. Player II and Player Plus basses. Squier Classic Vibe and Affinity across the range.

Camp Storage
Electrics handle seasonal humidity swings at Lake George better than acoustics do. A camp electric left on a stand through an unheated winter will be out of tune, possibly showing corrosion on strings and bridge hardware, maybe needing truss rod attention. A routine $79 setup in spring takes care of that. Set it up once a year and it stays gig-worthy.
The real humidity conversation is acoustic-side. See how humidity affects your guitar.

Best Beginner Electric
If you're shopping for a first electric, a Squier Classic Vibe '50s Strat is almost always the right call. More on what works under $300: best beginner electric guitars under $300.
