We’ve just read Guitar Mammoth’s “Real Guitars Need Real Shops” campaign, and it couldn’t be more spot on.
Because let’s face it, no online checkout can match the feeling of walking into a guitar shop, picking up an instrument, plugging it in, and feeling that connection.
More Than Just a Shop
We’re not just here to sell guitars. We’re here for:
Some honest advice from people who play
– The chance to try before you buy
– Unexpected finds you didn’t even know you were looking for
– The buzz of chatting guitars with fellow players
When you shop local, you’re not just ticking off a shopping list, you’re supporting a community, a culture, and keeping that spark of live music alive.
But These Places Are Disappearing...
Independent guitar shops are closing down fast. Shops that once felt like home to musicians are vanishing and once they’re gone, they’re hard to get back.
That’s why Guitar Mammoth’s campaign is calling on players to make a stand and take the pledge:
"I pledge to buy from independent guitar shops whenever I can."
Because it’s not just about guitars it’s about people, music culture, and keeping the scene alive.
Support the Campaign
We’re proud to back this message. Whether you’re picking up your first guitar or adding to the collection, shopping local keeps independent music alive and kicking.
Let us know what you think about the campaign next time you visit and don’t forget to spread the word. Independent shops matter. Let’s keep them alive.
