Did you know.....we do the best guitar and bass setups east of the Mississippi?

That's what our customers tell us anyways.

Done in one day in most cases and only $50 for all guitars unless they have a locking trem then it's $60.

Do yourself and your guitar a favor......

What's New

(see "Guitars", "Amps" and "Other Stuff" pages for more info)

First of the new improved (if that's possible) Reverends. This is the Flatroc in cream. Featuring the new Reverend Locking Tuners (like 'em better than the Wilkensons) and two of the great Revtron Pickups for the ultimate in tone....yes it's true, low power humbuckers sound better ! Could be yours for only $599.

Still my favorite all time acoustic...the Seagull Coastline S6 Spruce. Solid spruce top and all the typical Seagull greatness for a mere $419. I can't fine a better deal....you won't either.

Godin Freeway Classic in Black Pearl. Silver Leaf Maple with Poplar winged body and a nice Rosewood board along with all the usual Godin Goodies. No other North American Guitar comes close @ $499 !!!

A 2X12" combo amp for only $199....with built in delay/reverb, chorus, 2 channels and the usual Kustom features??????

Yes, it's true. The new Kustom Double Barrel is all of the above !!!!!!!!

Heavy Duty!!!

The Bag End D12B (for birch) speaker cab with 2 EVM 12Ls. Can handle all kinds of power and sound great while doing it. Pretty much a deal and a half @$400.

3 P-90's. Set neck. Raised center for extra tone and sustain. New Reverend Locking Tuners. New block inlays. New bound neck. Bass contour Control. Reverse headstock. Killer Guitar @ $649.

MUST GO SALE

The owner of these two 4X10 bass cabs just called...they "MUST GO". A Hartke Transporter 4X10TP and an SWR Workingmans 4X10...either one for the ridiculous price of $179. Both in good working order, they just gotta go !!

Been around the barn a few times 1993 Martin D1...with Martin electronics. Just had Chris glue down a loose back brace and other than a few little nicks and dings she is in great shape now. Solid top and back, smooth/EZ action and tons-o-tone. $699 with original hard shell case....beat that!!!

"18 watts of tube tone"....says it all. The Kustom Contender is finally here. Some of the features of the Defender like a Master Volume Bypass Switch, Bright Switch, Eminence Speaker, solid pine cab, leather handle and tube preamp....all for a mere $159.

I got to thinking about the possibilities of the DPDT footswitch and realized that it can do more....the Switcheroo 2 is the result. It can do the basic Switcheroo, 1 guitar into 2 amps or 2 guitars into 1 amp, plus a whole lot more!! Take 2 guitars and 2 amps, plug them all in and see what happens. The Switcheroo 2 can send either guitar to either or both amps. How about either guitar to either amp at the same time?....no problem. That's right, you can play 1 guitar thru 1 amp, hit a switch and turn on both amps, put down that guitar and do the same with your other guitar....or....play both guitars at the same time thru either amp (didn't Steve Vai do that???). And that's only what you get when plugged in as labeled, backwards might even do more...the research department is just getting to that.

Hand made and wired right here at Gary's Guitars with a sturdy metal box, Switchcraft jacks and Carling switches....no cheap parts here !! Yes, it switches silently. A whole lotta switching for $59.

Now officially discontinued so grab one while you can....the fabulous Reverend Roundhouse 290. Still at the old price too.....$499.

Coming as soon as they release them:

The newest Reverend....the Double Agent

Don't need no stinkin' whammy bar? Have I got a guitar for you. The Godin Detour mixes a Strat style body with a hardtail bridge and 2 humbuckers. Made in Canada by the great folks at Godin Guitar Co. With a real nice gig bag for only $449.

For those of you not familiar with what we do here at Gary's, "service" is the word to remember. Next day guitar repairs, amp and electronic repairs by the end of the week. A selection of guitars, amps and accessories that we have found to be tried and true, always a friendly ear and words of advice as well as some of the coolest, hard-to find-gear. We strive to cover ALL the guitar bases 'cause we are the Seacoasts Guitar Specialists.

That's the Gordon Carlisle mural. I asked Gordon for something bright and, ya know, with a guitar in it. Voila!!!
