Where We Are
We're on the second floor of The Shirt Factory in Glens Falls. The building went up in 1902 as a men's shirt factory and made shirts until 1996. Today it's home to more than 70 studios, shops and galleries, and now a guitar shop. 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.
Washington County is the farm county next door to the east, long and narrow, running down the Vermont line from Lake Champlain to the Batten Kill, with the county seat in Fort Edward.
What We Carry

Used guitars across electrics, acoustics, and basses. New Fender and Martin as authorized dealer. Strings, picks, cables, capos, and the accessories people actually come in for. Inventory rotates, so if you're driving in for something specific, call first. First guitar? Electric vs. acoustic for beginners.
Repairs and Setups
We do guitar repair and setups in-house. The bench's work is documented publicly in the Repair Vault. Washington County players deal with the same climate as everyone else in the region: dry heated winters that move necks, raise or drop action, and leave fret ends feeling sharp by February. Most of that is a setup problem, not a repair problem. A standard setup is $79 and it's usually all a guitar needs after a hard winter. There's more in how humidity affects your guitar.
Service is first come, first served. Need it back by a certain date? Let us know at drop-off and we'll do our best to accommodate. Structural work takes longer.
Guitar Lessons
Lessons are with Travis Gray of Wild Adriatic. He's a working musician and teaches here in person, one-on-one. No method book unless a student wants one. See how lessons work.
Buy, Sell, Trade
If you've got a guitar to sell or trade, call or text first at (518) 217-8695, or bring it in during shop hours. We'll usually have a number for you before you leave.
