Steve's Music Store

Steve’s Music Store is an OG. Founded in 1965 by Steve Kirman, the shop quickly became a rite of passage for generations of players—especially those who didn’t fit the standard mould, from left-handed guitarists to teenagers with limited budgets and big ambitions. Stories of custom fixes, no-questions-asked adjustments, and patient staff echo across decades.

Steve’s has functioned as a classroom, hangout, and launchpad; proof that good service, honesty, and trust can turn a music store into a cultural institution.
