The Store
Retail Store, Repair Shop and Eclectic Collection of Instruments...
First you might ask why you would want to shop at a store that only approaches retail by reservation.
Through out my many years in association with musical retail, I have always noticed that with multiple customers in the store the sales staff is often divided between several people simultaneously.
I prefer do devote my full attention to the customer to provide them with the very best service I can offer. Also since the brunt of our business is based on musical education you might find our prices well below other retails stores. Sales are secondary at "Carlier's School of Guitar and Music" but service is not.
I will find you the instrument of your choice and try to do it within your desired budget. From beginner to professional I will broker from many of my sources the product or instrument that you desire - even if you do not see it in our store. I like to consider my retail part of the business as more of an "Guitar Adoption" agency.
If I for some reason I cannot do this, I will refrain from the usual "bait and switch" practices and even guide you to another store for product and service.
Browse new and used guitars, sell your used guitar or buy accessories. We also repair instruments. Come see some of the vintage guitars in the Carlier collection.
