There can be few places that are so in tune, pardon the pun, with their customers’ needs than Sheehan’s. Whether you’re just looking, have a few pounds to spend or are about to buy the instrument you’ve always dreamed about, you’ll get the same expert and courteous service from Jason and the team. I’ve been in and out of Sheehan’s for many years now and been delighted with both the help I get and my purchases whether guitars, mandolins, ukuleles or harmonicas. The after service is terrific too so when it comes to the time for a new set-up the guitar will come back as good as new and will play just as you want. They also provide all sorts of opportunities to learn to play and the annual Acoustic Avalon event where some of the best guitarists, as well as some of the best guitars, in the world appear. If you’re like me and you don’t like people to try and sell you things then Sheehan’s is the place for you. They’re never ‘pushy’, always friendly and give you lots of time and help as you weigh up what seem like endless possibilities: Sheehan’s is a seriously well-stocked shop. Jason and his colleagues will talk you through your options and make sure you use one of the quiet rooms so you can properly compare guitars and compare and contrast instruments. So, what’s not to like? Go and meet Jason and the rest of the team but be warned: it’s addictive.
