Used to be a spot I frequented regularly, however, I probably won’t go back. I’ve bought a guitar, strings, chords etc. from this place in the past. I’ve noticed that over the years the inventory hasn’t changed much and some of the instruments have an inch of dust on them. Today while browsing per usual an interesting Washburn banjo laying in a case on the floor caught my eye. I’ve been a bluegrass banjo player for 10+ years and have a very nice Deering banjo that I play regularly. While checking it out the owner promptly walked over and said “be careful! That’s a $3,000 banjo!” The comment kinda took me off guard like why do you have it laying on the floor and not behind the counter on a stand out of reach? “Oh yeah” I replied confused. “Yeah so be careful unless you have $3,000” I put it down and walked out. Heck of a sales pitch you got there… let it collect dust with the rest of the instruments.

Great selection of guitars, bass, banjo, you name it. Classic locally owned shop with great service.

Probably best guitar shop in the Charlottesville area. The old man behind the counter is always quite funny.

The selections pretty good but service isn't very friendly... It's also got a "don't come here unless ur gonna buy something" vibe too. Was gonna buy some strings but then decided not to.

Wonderful son and father business. Unfortunately, their selection is what I refer to as "The Great Wall of China and Other Asian Guitars". Usually nothing American, new or old. That would be fine if these Asian guitars, including a few from Vietnam, didn't have "Made in USA" prices. The store is fun but the prices are way off for oversea's guitars where labor charges are only $3-10 a day.(boutique pickups or not). Still worth a visit though. Go and have fun.

Great spot! Huge selection of instruments. I started playing guitar in 2020 after deciding lockdown was a good time to do something I've wanted to do for 40 years. Visited this place last summer when I was in Charlottesville for something completely unrelated, and it was a great experience for me and my kid. I'm raising a drummer, so the drum room was a hit. I loved looking at the guitars, with a lot of the standard brands and some nice Tagima & Dillion instruments as well. We'll be back.

I searched EVERYWHERE nationally for a particular electric guitar, and finally found one on their website. Calling them on the phone, they not only answered (!) but generously spent time cutting me a wonderful deal. They then shipped the guitar several days sooner than they said they would. The guitar arrived expertly packed and with all hang tags and literature for both the guitar and case. Larry and the crew at Specialty Guitars are a class act. Trust them for an internet sale 100%.

I absolutely love this store! It has a variety of well-known guitar brands and brands that you wouldn't see in commercial music stores and would have to order. There's everything here for the beginner to the seasoned professional - electric and acoustic guitars; basses; ukuleles; banjos; mandolins; amps; small selection of books and supplies. There are also keyboards, drums amd some wind instruments. More importantly, the staff and its teachers are friendly and very knowledgeable and go above and beyond to help you with your musical needs.

Very helpful and friendly staff. Lots of guitars and amps you won't find in other physical stores. Effects pedals could have more variety, but they also have pedals I don't find in guitar center or elsewhere. Everything from clone/budget to boutique.

Hands down, the most awesome selection of guitars in town. Larry and his son are awesome people and are always helpful. I've been a loyal customer since 2009, and have gotten some of the best deals I've ever received from Larry. Highly recommended.
