Jay fixed and did a set-up on my Epiphone Casino (a re-make of the Gibson John Lennon Casino, seen in the Beatles' rooftop concert) and I got it back today. It had some tuning issues, bridge problems and the intonation was a bit off, but now it plays like a dream! I am happy I live so close to this awesome shop in Calgary downtown and I highly recommend them for friendly service and professional guitar expertise.Read more

It was kind of a crazy idea way back in 1989 when Guitarworks first opened. A store with only… guitars? But several decades later, we have grown to 3 brick and mortar stores, all located in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, and all dedicated to all things guitar. If you are here, you are probably just like us. We are you and you are us. Guitar lovers and enthusiasts and nerds. Some of us play in bands. Some of us play alone. We all play.
Literally dialed the wrong number. Meant to call another guitar store. The owner Mark answered the phone and I apologized for the mix up. He said no problem and asked what I was looking for. Within an hour I had purchased an amp from him. I’m in Ontario and they are shipping free. No pst so I’m saving $$$. He put one of his techs on the phone to help walk me through the product and help me with a decision. These folks are knowledgeable and have a great service structure.
Great misdial Read more
