Guitar Strings Near Queensbury, NY
Guitar strings near Queensbury: Paul's Guitar Hideout is about 10 minutes from Queensbury down Route 9, with close to seventy string products on the wall from D'Addario, Ernie Ball, and Martin. Sets start at $6.49. If you'd rather not do the job yourself, a restring is $25.
Queensbury wraps around Glens Falls on three sides, so for most of it we're closer than the mall. Route 9 at the Aviation Road light, past the mall, and you're at the Shirt Factory in about ten minutes.
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.
Strings We Stock
Electric, acoustic, and bass sets from D'Addario, Ernie Ball, and Martin, in light through medium gauges. We also keep banjo, mandolin, and ukulele sets on the wall, all D'Addario. If you play something we don't stock strings for, we can usually order them.
Restrings
A restring is $25 for guitar or bass, $35 for a 12-string or mandolin, and $40 for a classical or a locking tremolo. 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. If the guitar hasn't been set up in a while, a setup ($79) includes fresh strings.
When to Change Them
Dull tone, tuning that won't hold, and a rough feel under the fingers are the usual signs. More on timing: when should you replace your guitar strings.
The Drive
About 10 minutes down Route 9 from the Queensbury retail strip. Park in the Cooper Street lot at The Shirt Factory.
