Ye Olde Guitar Shoppe is a guitar shop and music school. Founded in 1977 by master guitarist Paul Wilson, the shop originally only offered classes. But, after finding that having an inventory of guitars on hand could motivate students, Wilson expanded and YOGS began selling instruments as well. Today, the shop features a range of classical guitars at various prices, and offers instruction to students at all levels. The staff members take their craft seriously. Galleries of trips to guitar manufacturers can be viewed on the website.
