The Music Emporium

Our Spring 2025 Boutique Electric Spotlight features an inspired lineup of in-stock guitars and amps from today’s most inventive independent builders. These aren’t everyday instruments—they’re built by makers chasing tone, feel, and innovation beyond the mainstream. From reimagined student models to boundary-pushing originals, each piece brings a distinct voice to the modern guitarist’s collection.

Front & Center: Celebrating Women in Music

In celebration of Women’s Month, our latest Under The Influence Spotify playlist highlights some of our favorite female artists—past and present—who continue to inspire us with their sound, stories, and creative force. From trailblazers who redefined genres to rising voices shaping the future of music, this mix is a tribute to the women who’ve left an undeniable mark on the musical landscape.

Great tone, craftsmanship, and playability don’t have to break the bank. Whether you're looking for a stage-ready workhorse, a studio staple, or your next go-to instrument, these guitars are built to last for decades and prove that top-tier performance doesn’t always come with a top-tier price tag.

The Carr Skylark has become a go-to for players seeking an expressive, dynamic 6V6 platform with built-in power scaling and lush onboard reverb.

Now, Carr takes the Skylark to new heights with the Skylark Special—an inspired evolution that expands its tonal palette while preserving everything that made the original so beloved.
