— Our history

The history of Legato Guitars dates back to 1971, when shop owner John Smith went into business. His passion for music dates back to the 1950s when he began taking classical piano lessons. In the home parlor where he took his lessons, John's passion for guitar was born.

Throughout being in business in the '70s and '80s, Name realized his passion for guitars could be translated into another area — sales. It was during that time that he committed to selling the best guitars possible and made that the focal point of his business.

— Our way

Some guitar stores only care about moving as many products as they can, and that’s fine for them. At Legato Guitars, however, we firmly believe that instrument quality is paramount to anything else.

We are incredibly particular about the brands that we carry, but perhaps most importantly, we diligently research the individual models that we keep in stock. This ensures that each guitar in our inventory meets our high standard for quality and brings something unique to the table — you will not find the variety of guitars and amps we carry in your average music shop.
