MEET ART OF GUITAR

Established by music industry veterans with over 100 years of combined experience, alongside passionate collectors with auction level valuation and assessment experience, Art of Guitar was ‘born’ in the UAE 5 years ago. Today Art of Guitar is the leading guitar destination and largest retailer of rare and vintage musical instruments and memorabilia in the entire Middle East. Our flagship store, which is located in Dubai’s Courtyard and art district, is one of the top 10 places to visit in the UAE. Our growing locations across the region allow you to play and learn at your own pace, spend time with our luthier, focus on genres and techniques, record your own music in our studios, attend our community and live events and be part of our vibrant regional jamming community.

The Flagship Gallery was created by converting an existing Art Gallery into a multi-room, dedicated, homage to the world of Fine Rare and Vintage guitars - where each element of the Art of Guitar has been curated to ensure that the merchandise is stored and displayed in optimal surroundings within a climate-controlled environment. Our unique concept combines music instruments, memorabilia, repair services, AV recording, professional audio setups, studio rentals, music lessons, academic certifications, trade-in programs, regular community jams and concierge services which collectively deliver an unmatched experience specifically focussed on today’s discerning customers.

THE FLAGSHIP GALLERY IS UNIQUE IN THE MIDDLE EAST;

a destination for enthusiasts, musicians and collectors alike. The various rooms, vaults and alleyways are designed to give the customer a bespoke journey that can excite, entertain, educate and service in style.

The onsite Luthier room, with certified professional staff, ensures that all stock, whether brand new, pre-loved artist signatures, or vintage, are perfectly set-up and fine-tuned to demo the very best experience. The sound-proofed listening rooms and lounges create the perfect environment to judge the sonic and aesthetic qualities of single luthier builds.

The Vault is focussed on rare and collectible vintage guitars spanning nearly 100 years of the finest instruments available. Our Pro-Audio studio is for enthusiasts and musicians, looking to learn, produce and record.

Our german-designed sound-proofed lesson rooms make Art of Guitar the best in class for all our customers’ learning needs; whether they’ve just picked up the guitar for the first time or are perfecting their skills.

Our approach to selling a guitar resembles that of selling a high-end watch; Our team are partners who help their clients build the range of guitars they are looking for, and continue to service them, expanding their interest and knowledge, while providing opportunities to trade-in or trade-up, if the customer so desires. With an overt focus on service, NPS, returning and repeat customers, every customer interaction is seen as the first step taken together on a lifetime musical journey.

By staffing our stores with experts and gigging musicians and fully certified luthiers our reputation as the true experts in the sector has already been well and truly established.
