Guitar Center Celebrates Grand Opening of New Store in Yakima, Washington
New location offers services to meet any music-related needs, from the latest gear to onsite lessons, repairs, rentals and more
Westlake Village, CA (January 31, 2022) – Guitar Center, the world’s largest musical instrument retailer, celebrates the opening of its latest retail location – a 10,800-square-foot facility in Yakima, Washington (2507 Main St., Union Gap, WA 98903). The store offers an expansive set of services and gear to serve the music needs of the Yakima community. The grand opening took place on Thursday, January 20, 2022. The opening of the Yakima store represents part of Guitar Center’s long-term growth strategy, and a continued re-engagement of Guitar Center’s grand opening itinerary, which was put on hold during the height of the pandemic but was resumed in late 2021.
The new Yakima store features modern showrooms equipped with the latest products for musicians — from guitars, amplifiers, percussion instruments and keyboards to live sound, DJ, lighting and recording equipment. In-store services include:
- Guitar Center Lessons, a convenient and affordable music education experience for players of all ages and skill levels, offering students the opportunity to learn to play the music they love
- Guitar Center Repairs, an on-site maintenance and repairs service
- Guitar Center Rentals, providing easy rentals of instruments and other gear
- Hands-on DJ Experience, where shoppers can try their hand at modern DJ techniques using the latest gear
Yakima shoppers are also able to enjoy Guitar Center’s multi-channel “endless aisle,” which gives customers the ability to combine in-store, online and phone options to purchase music equipment from anywhere.
Guitar Center Yakima store and studio hours:
Monday – Saturday 10:00 a.m. – 9:00 p.m.
Sunday 11:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m.
