At Guitar Center, our mission is simple yet profound: to ensure music persists. More than just a retailer, we are a family of brands, collectively known as The Guitar Center Company, dedicated to placing musical instruments into the hands of more individuals globally than any other entity. From our headquarters, we orchestrate a symphony of services and products designed for musicians at every level.
While Guitar Center is synonymous with guitars and basses, our inventory extends far beyond. We provide a comprehensive selection of musical instruments, essential gear like amplifiers and recording equipment, and solutions for lighting, live sound, and DJ setups. Beyond products, we offer vital services including music lessons, instrument rentals, and expert repairs. This holistic approach is powered by our passionate and knowledgeable associates, the heart of Guitar Center’s commitment to music.
