Reviews
Excellent service in my opinion, as a buyer of a beginner guitar. They offer two basic options, the least expensive Cort and more expensive but excellent value for the money Eastman line. This made for an easy, simple buying experience. I later shopped around. These really are some of the best beginner options. I went back, bought the Eastman PCH1 and couldn't be happier with it. They gave me advice about care and patiently answered my questions. Recommend highly!
Amazing collection of guitars, banjos, and mandolins, excellent repair services, custom string assortments.
Sounds like some of the reviewers need a hug. Never had a bad experience at Fretted Instrument Workshop, in fact I have played many great guitars there. Bought several of them. The owner is not a typical salesman, he is a player and a musician himself. I don't mind not having some guy hanging over my head while I audition guitars. To each their own.
Knowledgeable staff. Friendly, prompt, reasonable prices. Had work done to an electric bass guitar. Very happy with the work. I will return to this store for all future service needs. Highly recommended!
Outstanding service. Brought a Martin guitar in for setup and strings. It was done while I waited. Had a great conversation. They are the primary care physician for my guitar Cecilia . Great vintage guitars and banjos to look at. They also can do warranty work on Martin guitars.
Amazing shop with a huge variety of vintage guitars. They don't seem to have many "beginner" instruments, but if you want a good older instrument, this is the place to go. They also do repairs, but I've never used that particular service.
For years I have been on a mission to visit all of the truly great American guitar shops before they succumb to the internet. The FIW is a wonderful example of this endangered species. You would be hard pressed to find anyone with more knowledge than it's soft-spoken, self effacing proprietor, Tony Creamer. As a lover of all stringed instruments, I was like a kid in a candy shop. The upstairs shop in the heart of Amherst, MA is a comfortable place to visit.
I bought an $1100.00 guitar at this store and it came with a warrantee. The finish was never quite right with this guitar and the bridge came off recently. I called to bring it in and what I got was a lot of unwarranted advice for future guitar care and a subtle implication that I somehow may have caused this to happen. The owner hadn't even seen the guitar yet - so I decided to bring it somewhere else that deals with Eastman guitars. I didn't feel like he was going to be in my corner. And when I said I felt like he was implying I had somehow not taken care of my instrument - he totally denied having ever implied that I should have noticed it coming off "it takes years for this to happen to a guitar.." comment. I've been playing for 30 years and I take impeccable care of my instruments. Not a great experience after such a substantial purchase...Even if it was my mistake which is not the case Eastman carries the warranty and his store loses nothing. Just a stuffy uptight owner who seems to be on a high horse of some kind..No thanks..
