What Our Customers Say!

"I cannot say enough good things about NH guitars. I discovered them when I was shopping for a first guitar for my son. Paul was so helpful and friendly. After my son got his guitar we started lessons with Paul. I loved the fact that he talked to my son about what he wanted to learn to play and that is how they structured the lesson rather than making him learn scales etc. This really bolstered enthusiasm!! Several years later and my son is really into his music and has several guitars. Paul has been great about helping us source them (like his 12 string). He meets the kids where they are, makes things fun for them and challenges them to learn."

"I love small independent music stores!  Had a great time hanging out at NH Guitars in Salem, NH this week!  Owner Paul German has created a welcoming space that nurtures the local musical community....it's exactly what a local music store should be!  Matt Frotten did a quick and flawless job replacing volume pot in my favorite flat wound strung Fender Precision bass.  If you find yourself in the area, stop in and see them!"  - Mark Damon, Bassist, The Pretty Reckless

"Honestly the most comfortable and welcoming guitar store we have ever visited. My 13 year old son begs me to visit guitar stores every weekend. He prefers this store knowing the drive is over a half an hour each way. The staff make him feel right at home and eagerly answer all of his questions. Lots of questions… He learns something new every time we visit. NH guitars keeps a great variety. Charlie is learning what style best suits him. He has fallen in love with a very worn in Martin. I have enjoyed watching the process. Thank you Paul and Matt for being so kind and encouraging young musicians. You are appreciated !!!."

"There's nothing better than getting a great guitar back in action!  A HUGE shoutout to my friends Matt and Paul at NH Guitars in Salem, NH.  These guys did an amazing job getting this guitar working and sounding as good as it does.  They're fantastic to work with, know their stuff, and genuinely care about what they do.  If you're a guitar player in New Hampshire or the surrounding area and need some work done on your instrument, I can't recommend these guys enough!"
