Bizarre Guitar was established in 1976 by Bob Turner in central Phoenix after years of wheeling & dealing vintage and used guitars from his apartment. Bizarre Guitar opened with 11 used guitars in a 300sf space! New guitars were added in 1978, Martin being the first with drums added in 1983. Of course, all this new gear required more space and the store has moved several times over the years. Bizarre Guitar is now 5000sf packed with over 1000 guitars, drums, amps, and P.A. Bob is a renowned expert in vintage guitars and has bought and sold 1000s worldwide. His client list includes famous musicians, personalities, actors and artists. He has co-authored and contributed to numerous guitar textbooks and trade magazines. Over the decades, Bob has sold the kind of vintage guitars that would make a grown guitarist cry (and he does when he thinks about some of them) ! Authorized Dealer: We are an authorized dealer of all brands listed on our website. We are a brick & mortar store dealing in New, Used, and Vintage. We guarantee that your purchase will be absolutely new and factory fresh unless noted as "used". How to Purchase: You can contact us by phone 602-248-9297 to purchase any product. Due to manufacturers' policies regarding brick & mortar stores, we cannot sell directly from this website as stated in the dealer contracts. We wish that were not so, but have no control over this policy. Payment: By phone or mail purchase, we will ONLY accept bank-to-bank wire transfer. It's easy! We can give you instructions and your bank will handle the transfer. They can also charge it to your credit card. We do NOT accept checks. We will accept credit cards in-store only with proper ID. Sorry but too many crooks have spoiled it for everyone else. Shipping: We ship within the 50 U.S. states via FEDEX. Shipping rates depend upon weight, size and zone. If you reside outside the U.S., please arrange your own shipping and contact us with instructions, we will have it ready for pickup. Sorry, due to the increased paperwork for customs since 9/11, we no longer process international shipping from our end.

As soon as I went through the door I saw the posters they are selling that manage to mock both mentally and physically disabled people. I'm not that thin skinned but as a disabled wheelchair user...
