Message from the Business
Centaur Guitar is owned and operated by Kelly Manahan and Jason Snell, the dueling guitarists in Portland?s very own Muddy River Nightmare Band. We?re a full service music store with great prices, friendly service, and cool stuff. We pride ourselves on being members of the community that we operate in, and know what it?s like to play a thirty-minute set at midnight on a Tuesday for fifteen dollars and a couple of free beers.
We've been open since April 2005 when we realized there were no stores in the area that we felt like we were a part of. While other music shops in Portland seem to be moving in a ?bigger is better?, impersonal, mega store direction, we decided to open a small, community oriented, rock and roll shop.
We buy, sell, trade, and loan everyday from 10-7.

on Citysearch Jun 15, 2008I'm going to make a bold statement. Centaur Guitar is the best guitar shop in Portland. While it doesn't have the selection of Apple Music, nor the size of Guitar Center, it has something 99% of the other shops lack: ... (more)
