I was impressed by the personal attention I received from Frank and Maria, the shop owners. Its the kind of place you can walk into not knowing anyone (or anything about guitar for that matter) and leave feeling empowered and excited to try something new. They have a wide selection of guitars and equipment too. Im glad to say I found a local one-stop shop instead of wasting time on the internet trying to understand something that should be experienced in person - music!

I walked into the store to find a peg for my nieces guitar that I borrowed. Owner went the extra mile to try to find one that would fit. Although nothing was readily suitable he went out of his way to help me tune it so I could practice for a gig next day. While at the store I saw this beautiful guitar 🎸 leather case, so unique and at a great price so I just bought it on the spot. Im very impressed with tbe customer service and I encourage all my musician friends to come to El Cajon Guitars where they are very friendly to the musicians. They also have a nice unique selection of cajones and other percussion instruments.

Purchased my beautiful guitar from the owners here. They were kind and considerate. Let me take my time trying out anything I wanted. When I heard this guitars sound, I knew she was mine but I was enjoying my visit so much I lingered in the ambiance a while and enjoyed the company before I told them Id take her. They moved heaven and earth (boxes and bins) to find a case that fit her since she is a traveling size, not full size. I bought her months ago and still remembered fondly how well I was treated. I just had to come find them and make a point to let others know. Please go see them if you are interested in guitars, guitar anything.

The only reason I am putting a 1 star is because their hours posted online are wrong. It states they open at 2:30 pm on Sunday. Well I drove there with my daughter to get some strings for her acoustic guitar instead of just ordering them on Amazon. We got there only to find the place closed and posted hours on being closed on Sundays. Normally, I wouldnt care since I live in El cajon anyway, but with gas being so damn expensive, it blows! Well, hopefully, Ill have a reason to shop here when theyre open and experience the shop, but for now, they get a 1 start. Sorry, but please update your hours online.

Initially stopped by last week to get an adapter for an amp, and some strings. The owners are great, they went out of their way to find precisely what I needed, and have earned my business for life. Ive since returned to buy an acoustic bass, and I love it.Excellent store with a great selection of affordable instruments and gear run by awesome people. A hidden gem of local business. If youre in the neighborhood, definitely check them out.

Classic hidden gem of the music world!Frank and Maria together ready to help your music needs. Franks knowledge of product is quite impressive. If youre able to get him to play for you will be impressed. Excellent selection of instruments... if you dont see what youre looking for, Im sure they can get it.

This place rocks, pun absolutely intended. The owners are a great duo knowledgeable about all things guitars and beyond. My brief, spontaneous stop at their shop became a joyful hour-long excursion in my day. If you have the time, are a music fan, and are in the area, I highly recommend a stop here.

I was literally wowed at Frank and Maria’s store and their customer service. These 2 know their stuff, and are so kind and gracious with helping the mom of a couple budding musicians, I felt welcomed and left informed. I find it rare to develop such a strong and trusting relationship in such short order, but Frank and Maria are the real deal. They truly are happy to to see each person that walks in the door, they greet their customers as though they’re all long lost friends, and it’s honest and authentic. I cannot recommend El Cajon Guitars and Music enough!! I will be back!!!
