PRODUCT IN STOCK NOW! JUST UPDATED JULY 8, 2010!

Boston MA, July 8, 2010 — You've reached the future website of UpFront Guitars and Music. UpFront Guitars is a new business with a mission to offer unique, high quality products for the serious hobbyist, and performing musician. Rather than trying to be everything to all people, UpFront Guitars will focus on regularly stocking a few selected brands that offer high performance, exclusivity, and the quality and durability to be used and enjoyed daily. We are offering such brands as:

• Rivera Amplification — Rivera Amplifiers are hand-crafted in California using only the highest quality components and fanatical attention to detail. Rivera amplifiers are feature-packed but never lose sight of the fact that no amount of knobs can replace fundamentally good tone.
• G&L Guitars and Basses — G&L is the logical extension of the classic Leo Fender designs updated and improved upon by Leo himself before his passing in the 1990's. All G&L USA guitars are built to order and we have a large number of guitars and basses in stock. None of our G&L guitars will be "plain vanilla". We have years of experience with the G&L line and each instrument will feature the options, woods and finishes to make each guitar both beautiful and highly functional. We can also custom order any G&L USA guitar to your exact specification.
• Godin Guitars and Basses — Without a doubt, the Godin product line offers some of the best values and features in a North American built guitar. Built in both Quebec and New Hampshire, Godin offers solid bodies, jazz guitars, basses and the unique Multiac line of acoustic-electrics. Godin has the guitar for any style of playing, often priced competitively relative to the imports. We have many of the Godin Performance series in stock now. The Godin factory keeps a large inventory of product on hand, and if we don't have it now, it's normally just a few days away.
