Reviews of Eddie's Guitars

I reached out about a guitar they had I was looking at for a few weeks. The salesman wouldn't budge off MSRP, understandable, it was kind of a one-off LP with a special top. But, I was able to get the shipping upgraded. I don't like my high-end guitars going through multiple heat/cold cycles on it's way to me. Took a couple of calls to get the invoice over. Paid and it was shipped as promised. When it showed up, it was very well packed and even sealed around the case.
Item was as described (which Gibbys can be hit or miss these days). It was obvious a setup wasn't done on the guitar as after I tuned it up, the action and intonation were way off. It was a typical Gibson factory setup. So, I did have to pay my local tech $100 for a setup, which is why I docked a star. I would do business with them again. Maybe they can send me some NYXL's for my trouble though?

Just concluded the purchase of a Santa Cruz Guitar Co 1934D with Eddies Guitars in St. Louis MO and Granville Helm who was great to deal with. No pressure, informative and transparent through the entire purchase process. Every representation he made about the guitar was 100% accurate. Could not have been a more pleasurable experience.
I highly recommend Eddies and Granville and will do business with them again without hesitation.
Kevin Hill
What a great store! I can't say enough about how happy I am to have dealt with them. It is easy to look through the website and see some amazing guitars.
I now have purchased two guitars from them. I just purchased a used Collings SJ acoustic. As promised, it was in mint condition. It arrived very well and safely packed just 3 days later. What a joy it is to play a Collings. Danny helped me understand the nuanced difference in the tone woods. This lead me to the "new to me" Collings acoustic. I got clear, straight explanations to every question I had before paying my money.
I'll look to Eddie's Guitars if this GAS issue i have hangs around.

I ordered a Suhr modern recently. The team made communication and payment very easy, and shipped efficiently. The guitar arrived well-packed and exactly as described, I'm thrilled with it. Thanks for a great transaction, can't wait to buy the next one from you!

Have recently purchased two guitars from Eddie's, a new Collings 360 LTM and a used 290DC (which looked new). Brett Kutter was great to work with! Fast shipment, great communication etc, etc. Would highly recommend Eddie's!
De'Andrea Priddy
I ordered my gorgeous 2018 Gibson ES 335 Figured Aquamarine guitar from Eddie's Guitar by online. It was represented as in "Mint Condition" and I have to say they are spot on with their description! There is not a single scratch, mar or blemish on this beauty. It was shipped out quickly and delivered in perfect condition. I most definitely recommend this place for an awesome purchase.
Eric Emanski
Placed an order online over the weekend and my new guitar was shipped out promptly on Monday. I called and spoke to Donny who was very friendly and helpful, emailed me the tracking info right. Guitar arrived in perfect condition as described and very securely packed. A great company with great service and pricing and a pleasure to do business with. I will plan to buy all of my guitars here in the future!
Patrick Burns
I found their site online and they had an exclusive on an Ernie Ball guitar I really fell in love with. Ordering such a high-dollar guitar without being in person was stressful at first, but Granville and the crew at Eddie's were awesome. I think we got the introductions, formalities, questions about the guitar, payment, and shipping number all done within an hour. The process was painless -- Granville was professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. The guitar came in exactly as described and was packed safely. I will always check with Eddie's first before I look anywhere else. I would recommend anyone buy from them.
Brian Lueken
Update. I bought a second guitar from Eddie's, and want to give a 5 star review again. I got exactly what I wanted again because the staff took the time to help guide me there. Prices are fair, and the inventory is incredible. Thanks to Granville for helping me figure it out.
Great inventory, great people. I was looking at several guitars in their inventory, and I was having a tough time deciding what was right for me. Eddies staff helped me make the best decision for me, and made it easy. If you are looking for a new instrument or gear, check them out.

I recently purchased my second high-end guitar from Eddie's Guitars, and the guitar was shipped out same day, was well packed, and arrived in flawless condition -- just like the last one that I purchased about 7 years ago. I'd love to be able to visit the store in person (I'm in Seattle area so not practical for me), but my first experience was sufficiently positive that I was willing take a chance on a more expensive instrument second time around and I'm exceedingly happy with the guitar (look, plays, sounds fantastic). The only nit is that the color of the guitar as photographed on the website was not a very accurate representation of as seen in person under typical lighting conditions. At certain angles and obtuse lighting angles it looks closer to the photos, but initial reaction was it is a different color than as shown, so something to be aware of, esp. if less common color on niche guitar that buyer might not already be familiar with in person. Again, minor nit, and had I seen the guitar in person before buying it wouldn't have changed my decision to purchase. I'm very happy with my decision to again trust Eddie's Guitars to deliver me a fine instrument that will give me years of enjoyment.
Bennett Narron
I had an excellent experience ordering a guitar from Eddie's Guitars. Conscientious staff and fast and free shipping. I'll be back for my next big purchase.
Ian Morgan
I bought a Fender custom shop jouneyman relic 59 super faded fiesta red jazzmaster from them online and I had the guitar in a matter of days. This is an amazing guitar and I would buy from them again.
Tom Simer
The Whole place is Awesome! If you want the best then look no further, these guys are the best in the business. Truly some of the finest guitars that I have ever seen and the most friendly and knowledgeable staff for sure. I would highly recommend Eddie's Guitars.
Mike
I sent an email to Eddie’s with some questions about a particular model guitar and received a very quick response.
Granville was very polite, professional, and extremely helpful. He made the process as easy as can be from start to finish.
Prompt, personal attention, quick shipping, and overall great service: I can’t recommend Eddie’s Guitars enough, and wouldn’t hesitate to buy from them in the future.
Shane Call
I had a great experience working with Granville at Eddie’s. I picked up a Gibson Southern Jumbo. I made my purchase during the Covid outbreak, and live in Los Angeles, so had to do my shopping online and over the phone. They took good care of me and answered my questions. My guitar arrived in pristine condition. They got it shipped out day of. It is super clean, plays great, a freaking gorgeous guitar. Thank you to the team at Eddie’s!
Donald Carron
Immediate response to my online question, and met my budget with a great deal--including 2-day air shipping to the west coast. Overall excellent communication, great customer service and highly recommended. I will buy my next guitar from Eddie's without a doubt!
KD Masher
By what I can tell is that this is not your everyday run of the mill brick and mortar musical instrument store. High end instruments sell themselves, you don’t need a salesperson holding your hand and stroking your ego because you’re thinking about dropping a few grand on a guitar. I haven’t been to there physical store but have read the reviews and the negative ones don’t make much since to me. Just about every issue is something where the customer should of been more proactive in some way and then blames the store for the problem. They make it very clear that a appointment is going to be the best way to see the instrument you want to see and it doesn’t surprise me that they aren’t jumping up to help each and every person who walks in when they have such a large inventory and I’m sure customers ahead of those walking in that are receiving the service they need. All I’m trying to say is after buying a guitar I saw online and called in to place the order. I got the feeling that this place is straightforward professional and are only there to help facilitate the sale of a guitar that you, the customer, are after. These guys are more than capable of answering questions you have and I’m sure just as helpful when it comes to handling a concern or issue. If you want a beautiful quality instrument at or below retail market value and don’t want to be hounded or “sold” something you don’t necessarily need, this is your place. You will not find a better selection of higher end guitars, amps, effects and etc. than Eddie’s. I will be sure to make an appointment to check out there showroom and whatever it is I’m interested in at the time the next time I’m in that part of the country. Don’t let any of the negative reviews steer you in another direction. You could be missing out on your dream guitar if you do.
James Matusiak
I made an appointment and Brett sat with me and helped me pick out a great guitar. I do not have a ton of experience with boutique gear and they were very patient.
The reason I go into a shop like Eddies is for the service and expertise. I can say that I received service, expertise and a strong price as well. When I wrapped up my purchase I met everyone in the shop. Pretty cool experience.
Mike Lamb
Brett and the team at Eddie's are world class. I have bought two guitars from them over the past two years, a Tom Anderson and a Suhr, and am absolutely thrilled with both purchases. Even more, the follow up to ensure the guitars arrived safe and sound was truly appreciated. I will definitely buy my next guitar or amp from Eddie's!!!

Was looking for a cutaway Taylor K26ce and found one at Eddie's. A 2017 model, but brand new and under warranty. Had a couple discussions with their staff by phone, they sent me some photo's and then took care of the transaction by phone. The guitar arrived today and it's gorgeous! Perfect condition, amazing wood and detailing, carefully packed and shipped as requested. Special thanks to Granville for getting everything done flawlessly. Would gladly recommend Eddie's.
Mike “Cenulab” C
I enquired about a couple of different acoustic guitars by email and always got quick and detailed responses from the sales rep, Granville. We ended up chatting further about one of the guitars on the phone, which led to me purchasing the instrument. It arrived in perfect condition, exactly as described, and I could not be happier! Although they're located thousands of miles away from me, I wouldn't hesitate to buy from them again. They really go the extra mile with the particular instruments that they stock and the care that they take with both their inventory and their customers. Highly recommended!
Ryan Estabrook
I had a great experience working with Granville when I picked out two amazing guitars that only a dealer like Eddie's Guitars could exclusively provide! Thanks again! You guys have the very best and I am so grateful for the experience!
Joseph M.
Within in the past few months I purchased two Suhr's from Eddie's. One is a classic antique and the other a Suhr modern Magenta. The level of service from Eddie's is astonishing! Doing business with their guitar rep, Granville (whom is very knowledgeable about the brand) has been overwhelming positive in my experience. All the pics are accurate. The serial number on the guitar you see in the photos will match the guitar you receive. They have unique custom builds for the shop so be sure to check that out first because they may have something already available. Like the Suhr Magenta, it is a mahogany body and mahogany neck. Talk about sustain! Something I would have picked for a custom build. They are honest and will take care of repeat customers. This level of service earns customers for life and I know this first hand. Thanks Eddie's!
Frank Furter
pleased with service and purchase experience. Donny took the time to play several guitars I was interested in for an 'in hand' description, which helped me decide what to buy. Will be buying from them again!
Steve L
Internet customer here. I've ordered two high end amps and one high end/limited guitar from Eddie's and I've been a very happy customer. All items arrived as described and in excellent condition. Very prompt in answering calls/emails and were very easy to work with. I have no complaints, and would certainly order again from them. Prices are very reasonable too. Great guys!
Sam
I would recommend to anyone to buy your guitar from Eddie's. I am from out of state and was told by local Gibson dealers that they could not get the guitar I wanted. I then called Eddie's and dealt with Brett. Brett found me the guitar in 3 colors within a total of 15 minutes. Brett was very knowledgeable and made me feel comfortable purchasing a guitar out-of-state. He immediately responded to my questions and made the sale as smooth as possible. I received the guitar in perfect condition four (4) days later with a perfect set up. I will definitely purchase other guitars from Brett/Eddie's and would recommend them to anyone. Can't say enough. A+++++ service.
Aaron Burrows
I had a great experience with Eddie's Guitars. I was able to order the exact guitar, with all the customization options I wanted. The storefront is a little intimidating, but this isn't Guitar Center. You don't just grab a $4000 guitar of the rack and start playing Smoke on the Water (do people still play that riff?). This is a place to get high-end, hand crafted guitars and custom orders. I was very pleased by the overall experience, and for the bass guitar I ordered, got a better price than off-the-shelf models that have been handled by hundreds of customers available elsewhere.
Robert Leipziger
This wonderful shop is my first step and favorite place to shop on the region.
They care!
They protect their instruments and I am always assured that my purchase is going to be perfect.
They wipe down every instrument after each trial.
They even wipe them down after they handle them!
This is a family business. I bought a Gibson from them in 1966 when the store was in the Tower Grove area!
Eddies is a St Louis jewel.
They are not a Guitar Center type store. They love their guitars so that their customers will love their purchased guitars.
This place is comfortable and beautiful.

I have purchased 2 high-end Les Paul guitars from Eddie's, dealing with them online. Brett and Nathan were both always quick to answer my questions and were very helpful. When I decided to buy, shipping was quick and the guitars were safely packaged. Good shop to deal with!
Brad McTaggart
Eddie's Guitars has great customer service and a terrific selection of musical instruments. I've had the pleasure of purchasing several new acoustic guitars and each experience was exactly as it should be. My questions are always answered promptly by their very friendly staff who are always happy to help. Their prices are very fair and competitive and makes purchasing a dream guitar easily within reach.
David Sanders
I bought a Collings acoustic guitar from Eddie's Guitars in 2013. Customer service was great, all of my questions were answered rapidly by email and phone contact was also very good. The guitar was expertly packaged and arrived safely in France. Nathan is great to deal with and everything went smoothly.
I highly recommend Eddie's Guitars to anyone who is in the market for a top quality guitar.
G. Michael Lewitt
I have been buying guitars from Eddie's since I was in middle school. I am a novice player, but an experience collector. The inventory is the best in the city. They have truly found a niche for eclectic and rare instruments and electronics. I now live in Chicago and drive down to St. Louis a few times per year just to visit the store and check out the stock. The website provide accurate descriptions and photos of the instruments. I have frequented other stores across the Midwest, and what I find are customers who do not respect the instruments. When I visit Eddie's, the staff pull the guitar down, ensure you aren't wearing anything that can scratch it, and allow you to jam away in a private room or comfortable couch. After playing, they wipe it clean and place it safely back in the case or on the wall. What does this mean to me...? When I purchase an instrument online, its in perfect, mint, brand-new condition, perhaps better than when it arrived at the store. I never have to re-inspect a new instrument out of fear that an irresponsible customer has been shredding on it.
Additionally, purchasing from the internet has been made MUCH easier with Matt's videos. He is just as friendly in person as he appears on the YouTube Acoustic demos. I have equally positive experiences with Nathan and Brett. I never feel like I have to "negotiate" pricing - competitive pricing is automatically offered. I will be a lifelong customer.
Mathew C. Dale
As a professional player and avid gear junkie, I can honestly say Eddie's Guitars has the friendliest staff and best selection of the finest instruments and equipment. The words "good enough" simply don't echo off the showroom walls. Every guitar, amp, pedal or other piece of stock is hand picked to ensure the customer is getting the very best every time. I've purchased multiple guitars, amps, and pedals from these guys and every time I'm welcomed with expert help and guidance, and fair prices. I recently found the need for a new steel string acoustic. I knew I wanted an OM body style for finger picking and I was shown models from top brands. The staff member, Matt, introduced me to the Bedell I later purchased and I was awestruck. I've been happily gigging with that guitar for a few months now and have the staff to thank for another wonderful buying experience. Rock on guys and thanks!
Jim Pringle
I had a pleasing experience working with Granville, at Eddies Guitars. He was decisive and his follow up post sale was excellent. Made me feel like a real customer. The guitar arrived as advertised. Im really happy! Thank you!

Eddie's is a very misunderstood store. This is a boutique establishment that has standards for its equipment that are above and beyond average guitar shops. This is a necessary part of selling very high end equipment. If you don't understand that, you should stick to guitar center or one of the other chains. I don't mean any offense by that. It's the same as buying a Rolls Royce; you can't just walk up and start test driving everything on the lot without some oversight. Eddies provides excellent service, but it takes business seriously, and many of us in the market for gear of this caliber appreciate that. If you are in serious about buying some of the nicest gear available, this is your place. I've personally purchased two guitars there, and I will continue to be a customer. The staff is extremely knowledgeable, and the selection is top notch. Give it a chance.
M. Black
Brett's pedal knowledge is second to none in St. Louis. I have bought many pedal's from Eddies and have always left satisfied. This is a high end guitar store. Their inventory is fantastic and prices fair. Do your research and call them. Matt is also one of the best guys in St. Louis when it comes to acoustic guitars. He will personally help fit a great instrument into your budget.
Andy Parker
Everything in this shop is of the highest quality. I went in with a trade and received a very fair, hassle free offer on the guitar. I had purchased a guitar from here several years ago so I was not surprised by the great service and superior knowledge of their staff. Stop buying crap and get a real guitar from Eddie's. You deserve it. Your wife will forgive you for spending the cash once she hears you plug in the tone beast you came home with. Best guitar shop in Missouri.
Ted Buck
Absolutely amazing, these guys rock. Purchased the Waterloo 14 L T-Bar from these guys. After speaking with Matt over the phone, I felt much better about my choice of guitar. Told him a little bit about my style and what I was looking for in a guitar and he nailed it. Great guitar from some great guys who know there stuff and don't skimp on the customer service. I will look at their inventory next time I'm ready to get another instrument.
william garrity
I couldn't ask for better service. Called with some questions about a guitar, placed my order online, and Donny had it boxed up and ready to go later that day. He even followed up with me after delivery.
I will be a return customer for sure! Thanks again for excellent service!
Gary Kochan
Had a great experience here. I was helping my friend's wife in Baltimore with a Christmas present. My friend wanted a Martin OOO-28EC and Eddie's just happened to have two of them. So I called and set up an appointment with Matt. When I arrived Matt had both guitars on stands so that I could play them in a private area. I was given a great price so that my friend's wife could purchase one and have it shipped for free to Baltimore by Christmas. The entire experience was first class with Matt. I highly recommend doing business with Eddie's.
Chris Reid
Awesome shop. I've purchased many acoustic guitars from Eddie's and have never been disappointed in the experience. I'm not local, so every purchase has been long-distance and Eddie's has always taken the time to answer my questions and provide detailed pictures. The guitars have always arrived well packaged and in immaculate condition. My Collings CJ35ASB arrived from them last week and I couldn't be happier. I won't buy guitars from anyone else. I highly recommend Eddie's!
Kirk Leonard
I recently ordered a guitar from Eddie's Guitars, and I couldn't be happier about the transaction. Not only did I get the best deal I could find, the instrument arrived barely 48 hours later and in pristine condition. I've been playing guitar for a long time, and this was the best buying experience I've ever had. I would absolutely buy from Eddie's again. Thank you!
Neil Wegrzyn
Eddie's Guitars from my understanding runs a different scheme and business model to stay financially afloat in 2019. They seem to do a lot of online sales with an emphasis on higher-end guitars. To understand Eddie's you must realize that many stores in the St. Louis area outside of Guitar Center (at least from my observations) simply aren't selling the guitars they need to in order to make a profit; ultimately the reason why their business model is different than what you may be accustomed to.
I was in the market to buy a Stratocaster SSS styled guitar and for months I tried out different stores in and out of the area. Finally I decided to try out Eddie's Guitars. I set up and made multiple appointments there within a 3 week period and tried out close to 10 different guitars. Throughout this process I was mainly communicating with Brett and he didn't rush me at all with my slow and meticulous decisions. Finally I settled on a nice Suhr Stratocaster styled guitar since they are a Suhr dealer. The guitar was pricey but I am hoping this guitar will last me a very (very) long time.
Craig Wubben
This is definitely not your average guitar store. I have visited a few times and thought it was time to get the PRS custom 24 I always wanted. The in store experience was great. Conrad was very helpful and genuinely wanted me to be happy with my purchase. No push or hard sell whatsoever. Their inventory is for those who recongize a high end instrument purchase as an investment to last a long time (i.e., not for beginners). If you go in showing the respect a store and staff like this deserve, it will be returned to you tenfold. Any single staff person at Eddie's probably has more guitar / amp knowledge than the staff of 20 guitar centers combined.
Vincent Kowski
Great place to buy a guitar. I bought a new guitar from them mail order and it had a manufacture defect. They got me a replacement immediately and had it shipped to me super fast. Great communication with them and they showed great concern to make sure I was 100% happy. Will buy from them again for sure.
Eric
I was in the market for a new guitar. Eddie's was the only place in St Louis that had a PRS DGT in stock. I decided to stop by. Brett set me up to try this axe out. We had a great conversation about the capabilities and versatility of the DGT as well as how that applies to various styles of music. Brett used to own this exact guitar and expressed his regret in selling it. I had done research on pricing on this guitar and Brett provided a no nonsense out the door price that was significantly less than any I could find, even with tax. This isn't your typical big box retail store(GC) mostly high end gear. My experience was fantastic, when I'm in the market for another guitar, I'll check Eddie's first.
Richard Boyer
I purchased a brand new Taylor 614e and had zero issues. Service was fast and when I did finalize everything over the phone the customer service was spot on. The guitar arrived quickly without any problems. It was still in perfect tune when I un-boxed it. Not too far down the road I will be adding to my collection, and I know where to go.
Sean Shreder
Easy transaction and great customer service from Eddie's. I purchased a new Gibson from them and they shipped her over to me with the utmost care and consideration taken. Could not be happier with the purchase and the service.
Matthew Taylor
Excellent customer service. Ive purchased 2 guitars in the last year from them and both times I walked in just as anyone else would. Curious and not particularly committed to spending any money. Still, despite being reluctant to buy, they were accommodating and totally non pressuring. The entire atmosphere was relaxing. They were more than helpful with my particular needs to make the purchase happen and they were patient and understanding when I had complications with the finances. Hell, they even opened the door after business hours and hung out behind the counter while my wife and I looked around. I can tell you I genuinely felt right at home with these guys. Ill definitely be purchasing from them in the future.
Joshua Teague
This is NOT a great place for beginners/intermediate players.
The selection of gear they have is at the EXTREME end of the scale. (For example, they don’t have an effect pedal in the store less than 200$) if you play guitar as a profession this place might be worth going to, but if you are more of a beginner/hobbiest or just on a budget, Dave’s guitar loft isn’t too far away away and they have a better selection of low/mid range equipment.
Doug Strall
Recently purchased a Collings I35 Deluxe from Eddie's site unseen. Not only is the guitar absolutley amazing but so was the experiance in dealing with Nathan at Eddies. He took time over the phone to help me select the right guitar, was extremely knowledgable and was awesome to deal with. Great customer experiance, service and guitar. Thanks!
Larry Butler
Nathan was very helpful and provided all the details I needed to make an informed decision on the new Gibson Alvin Lee Festival ES-335 guitar.
Highly recommended with prompt and secure shipping.
Scott Hodgkiss
Very friendly and easy to work with. Called with a request and had all the information I needed and emailed to me immediately. Had to cancel an order and was promptly and graciously refunded. Thank you for your service. Will definitely use Eddie's Guitars again!
Rick Norwood
I recently purchased a Taylor 416ce FLTD from Eddies Guitars. The process was seamless and a great experience.
Matt at Eddies was a complete pleasure to deal with as well as just a good person!
The Taylor 416ce IS the best guitar I've owned to date. A bit more than my budget allowed, but well worth the cost.
I highly recommend Eddies Guitars for your music needs, and I WILL be buying from Matt again in the future!!
Please do yourself a favor and call Matt at Eddies... You won't be disappointed!!
Brian Coufal
I found Eddie's guitars on youtube. They do something that few shops do. they post videos with well crafted demonstrations of many of their high end and guitars. This gives consumers a chance to hear what Froggy bottom guitars actually sound like and others like Huss & Dalton, Bourgeois. Goodall, Collings and Martin custom shop guitars. I was interested in a Martin and when it was finally time to buy I decided to get a quote from several dealers. I included Eddies' guitars because they had what I wanted in stock and I dug their videos. Well it turns out that Eddies' was the first shop to return my email, they quoted me the best price right away and they were available to answer all my questions. I could not be happier with my purchase and would be happy to do business with them again. Matt and Nathan were great to work with and had my guitar shipped super fast. Thanks!
Athit R
I bought my first Bourgeois guitar through the website and very happy with the purchase. The guitar is top notch quality and it sounds great. The seller are fast to respond to my queries. I am quite fussy but the seller have accommodate to my needs.
Michael Moriarity
I have to say that the service I recieved from Granville was excellent. The Guitar I bought is amazing as was the price. Thanks again Granville. I'm sure to do business again and would highly recomend Eddie's Guitars.
Johnnie Lambert
Eddie's Guitars is a cool little place that adds to yet another bright spot in downtown Maplewood. A perfect combination of small town feel but don't be mistaken. The staff at this place knows their stuff and when you want to get down to talking about guitars they've got you covered.
Hunh Rrrright
Great instruments. Great prices. Great staff. They work with you. I read some negative reviews...wow! I have bought great gear and instrument's from them and will buy more.
Nicolás Ramírez Barros
I purchased a guitar from them and they were great all the way. Always helpful and the guitar arrived perfectly. Very happy with everything.
Rob OConnor
I got an amazing deal on a brand new Rickenbacker 330 that was shipped to me immediately and was set up perfectly and in perfect, pristine shape. I live in New York state, but won't hesitate to buy from Eddie's when in need. Brett took the time to send me a nice little note.
Mark Dwane
I had a great experience with this place. The instrument I purchased arrived quickly and in pristine condition. Dealing with Brett and Nathan was a pleasure.
They were pleasant, professional and accommodating to my needs.
To quote Arnold..."I'll be back." :)
Andrew Sanner
I had been looking for a Lowden for awhile and didn't have a lot of places near by to try them out. In June I ended up working with Matt to try a few out. My experience was pretty awesome. I came in from out of town and had a quiet spot to try a few guitars out. I ended up buying a Lowden F-23c and love it. Thanks a bunch!

Awesome experience shopping with these guys! Matt was extremely friendly and responsive and helped coordinate a trade from states away to get me a superb Collings acoustic. It's hard to find this level of customer service these days. It is much appreciated and has earned them a customer for life.
Mike Turbe
Beautiful shop coupled with a wide range of goods and excellent service. Flexible pricing, and willing to meet/beat competitor pricing.
Support your local guitar shop, and buy from Eddie's!
Tanner Picton
Eddies guitars is over three hours away from my hometown. I traveled here to try a collings against a Martin with no intentions of buying that day. After buying both and talking to Matt the acoustic manager, I couldn't leave without one of their collings! I will only buy my guitars from Matt at eddies from now on just because of the customer service. Do yourself a favor, and get ahold of Matt at eddies.
Doug Van Horn
So I was a little nervous (as silly as that sounds) about visiting Eddie's. I've played for many years on an old Yamaha FG-750S from the 80s, but I don't consider myself very good, and I'm a newbie when it comes to equipment and buying guitars. I thought to myself, "Man, I'm just not the right kind of customer for a shop like that.".
My wife convinced me I was a fool for thinking that way, so I gave them a call to set up an appointment to play some of their acoustics. While it may seem odd to have to make an appointment, it makes complete sense when you see the shop and the inventory. It's not set up for a casual browse. Nor should it be, considering the inventory.
I went in with a couple of ideas based on what I played at GC, and a somewhat loose price range. Matt helped me out. I gave him a quick rundown of where I was at in the decision making process and asked him to give me some options. He presented me with several options, answered my questions, and made me feel comfortable and respected. Nevertheless, my hands were still shaking from nerves. I'm a head case.
Anyway, I pulled the trigger, and now, after 24 years, I have a new, much, much nicer guitar.
If you're in the market for a higher end guitar, don't hesitate to give them a call. No matter how "noob" you are.
Cole O.
Excellent purchase experience for an amazing guitar- David Gilmour Stratocaster. All communication was professional and cordial, no funny stuff, would recommend. Thanks for the great piece!
Ruvane Music
Incredible guitar selection with an emphasis on high end, difficult to find brands and items. The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. They are very willing to help you special order items, at an extremely competitive price.
The Zombie Guitar Company
Ultra cool guitar shop! Are you serious about getting a cool guitar? They are serious about getting it for you.
EDWARD H0WELL
Just purchased a Headstrong Lil king Reverb, fantastic,quick,detailed help from Donny, could not have been any nicer....Thank you Donny and all at Eddie's Guitars!! Edward Howell

Best price I found for the guitar I wanted and a terrific selection. The guitar is great and Nathan was very helpful and easy to work with. I'd love to stop in some day.

One of the finest guitar shops in the United States. Superb by every metric.

Great, friendly staff and a wonderful selection of guitars, amps, effects and anything else to put a smile on a guitar players face. I've been doing business with them for over 10 years and will keep coming back because they have always taken good care of me.

If you are in the market for a high end quality guitar, you have to stop by Eddie's. The vibe is almost as cool as the gear hanging on the walls. Top of the line guitars here.

Quick postage which was fantastic. Service on the other was less than great. Had a pre purchase inquiry which was never responded to (fairly small issue, assumed the email was just missed). Warranty issue currently being investigated, appears to be a quick turnaround thus far.
Paul Catterton
Fabulous boutique guitar store in Maplewood. Several collectible and high end quality acoustics and electrics. Authorized Taylor dealer. Highly recommended!!!
Chris Taylor
They were very accommodating ... They listened to me play, listened to my favorite music, and recommended guitars best suited for that style. They were very knowledgeable ... You can't go wrong with Eddie's!

I just want to know how things worked out with Brett and John Butternut? (I'll bet he like's his nuts buttered alright). One thing is for sure, If Brett is walking funny, we know who bought another guitar last night! I will put my money on Buttered Nuts. BTW, I rated "good" on all the scores, but if Brett is available this weekend, I'll bump your rating up to Very Good. Just kidding, Brett! You gotta admit it is too damn funny, though. I wonder if John would consider changing his name to Butterbutt?

Loved the experience from Eddie's Guitars. Super friendly and helpful and great with communication. Don't hesitate buying from these guys!

Bought a big, new, custom omg, sight unseen, in early June. Along the way, I kept watching Matt present his new, custom 00028 with the torrified upgrades and the short scale. When the omg arrived it was gorgeous indeed but uncomfortable to play. Matt understood the issue and we arranged a deal for a trade/upgrade and I now own the custom 00028. Can't thank Matt enough and will only deal with him in the future. He hasn't figured this out yet but he has made s friend for life. JM

Got a great deal from Eddie's. Nathan helped me sell my vintage Gretsch and trade in for a sweet Rickenbacker. Thanks a bunch.

Maurice Meredith
They are a nice store but a customer said they don't keep as many guitar's in stock as he expected. He rode an Uber there.
Michael G. Damons
I watch them on YOUTUBE, They get some great guitars. I don't know if they sell other musical instruments or not.
