"International Vintage Guitars has a great selection of new and used vintage guitars. The owner Steve is extremely knowledgeable and will help you find whatever it is you are looking for. As a beginner, Steve made sure I didn’t rush into purchasing a guitar that was out of my skill range or budget."

"If there is a place to go in New Orleans to purchase a guitar or equipment, or, to take a guitar lesson, International Vintage Guitars is the place. it is operated by real, local, musicians who give you good honest opinions about what type of equipment you need. I also take guitar lessons from Steve. He is a REAL musician who plays in a well known band yet takes the time out to give lessons at a bargain price. This place is naturally New Orleans. I would not go anywhere else for my guitar needs."
