    Lloyd's cap is one of the most beautifully broken in ones I've ever seen!

    I just talked to Lloyd on the phone today about doing a long distance trade. I was immediately taken with his immense knowledge of guitars & congenial personality. What a down to earth genuinely authentic dude. He politely listened to me babble about gear for over a half hour.
    Watching this interview makes me want to support his store and business even more;)

    I once asked a successful guitar shop owner how to make a small fortune selling guitars. He suggested starting with a large fortune! 😎

    I found their shop and visited it last September, I recall Lloyd being very knowledgeable about every item in the place, they had a great selection of new and used pedals as well. I live halfway between Clarksville and Nashville, so I’m Glad to see they are still open and thriving!

    It’s funny, I don’t know much about guitars, other than the feel and tone I am looking for. Outside of that, I seek more seasoned guitar gurus to help me with the specs that achieve this elusively meandering goal. Keep shining!!

    I have what could be a dumb idea to make guitars from kits... Set them up really well. Upgrade them. Sell them at players prices. Full disclosures. Also used guitars. But only those strange uglies that sound way better then they should type instruments.
    And coffee... Stupid idea for a guitar shop?
