Serving North Alabama's Stringed Instrument Needs Since 1979! Having started in a tiny storefront in historic Five Points, The Fret Shop has grown into one of the largest dealers of stringed musical instruments in North Alabama. We carry a wide selection of musical instruments, and our friendly and knowledgeable staff can help you find the guitar, bass, violin, banjo or mandolin that's right for y
ou. We also carry several lines of amplifiers, strings, effects, stands, microphones, PA systems and books. Our huge inventory includes brands like Fender, Taylor, Alvarez, Ibanez, Austin, Oscar Schmidt, Mackie, G&L, Roland, Ampeg, Crate, Tech 21, Boss, Eastman, Seagull, Gretsch, Shure, Rudolph Doetsch and Ivan Dunov. We take great pride in offering superior service -- both before and after the sale -- at the lowest possible prices.
