Along with classic vintage instruments, we handle many guitars that fall into the category of extremely rare and bizarre. No re-issues. No custom shops. No so-called "relics". Just genuine old smelly instruments. As a long time customer once put it: "...all your guitars have that Granny's attic smell". Music to our ears - and noses..... Every consideration is given to preserving and enhancing each piece's individual heritage, tone and character. We like instruments that are dead mint as much as guitars that took a lickin' and kept on pickin'..... New York String Service, our parent company, was founded by Steve Uhrik in 1983. Since then, we have been serving musicians and collectors both locally and worldwide from our shop in downtown Brooklyn, NY.....

..Retrofret Vintage, Rare and Unusual Fretted Instruments
Along with classic vintage instruments, we handle many guitars that fall into the category of extremely rare and bizarre. No re-issues. No custom shops. No so-called "relics". Just genuine old smelly instruments. As a long time customer once put it: "...all your guitars have that Granny's attic smell". Music to our ears - and noses.
Every consideration is given to preserving and enhancing each piece's individual heritage, tone and character. We like instruments that are dead mint as much as guitars that took a lickin' and kept on pickin'.
New York String Service, our parent company, was founded by Steve Uhrik in 1983. Since then, we have been serving musicians and collectors both locally and worldwide from our shop in downtown Brooklyn, NY.
