Here are just a handful of the fine Rickenbacker guitars we have in stock here in Sun Prairie. Give us a call at 608-405-8770 or shoot us a message to talk pricing on these beauties.

We’re very happy to have these wonderful acoustic instrument preamp/direct boxes from Grace Design back in stock! There’s a reason all the best players in the acoustic game use these things to amplify everything from acoustic guitar to upright bass. From the stripped down, single-channel Bix to the feature packed dual-channel Felix, all are built in Lyons, Colorado and covered by Grace’s 5 year transferable warranty.

Looking for a great solid wood dreadnought but can’t deal with the price-tag on a D-18? This used Tacoma DM9 is listing at $450! Made in the USA, solid Spruce top, solid Mahogany back, sides and neck, and a killer sound to boot. Price is lower than usual due to a top crack that has been repaired but is very solid. All guitars sold at Dave’s Guitar Shop include a full setup from our pro guitar techs with your choice of strings! Sound demo in comments.

We’ve been loving these Universal Audio stomp-boxes since they came out and now love them a little bit extra at sale price! (New prices listed below).
