A little resonator noodling never hurt anybody…

The Fender FR-50 just landed at Donley’s Music, so naturally I had to sit down and make some noise on it. 😎🎸

That classic resonator sound has a whole vibe of its own. Come by the shop, pick it up, and see what you can get out of it.

American heros choose Donley’s Music! 🇺🇸🎸

We’re always thankful when someone chooses Donley’s Music for their next instrument, but this one is extra special. We appreciate Mr. Joel’s business, and most importantly, we thank him for his service to our country. 🇺🇸

We hope you enjoy that BR-140A for many years to come, Mr. Joel!

One of our favorite things about Donley’s Music is when a customer picks up a guitar and shares a song with us. 🎶

Colby Passman stopped in and gave us his take on this classic — and you know we had to grab the camera. 🎸

That’s what a music store ought to be. Good people, good instruments, and music being made.

Nothing better than seeing our lesson families grow in more ways than one! 🎶

Jessica and her son both take lessons here at Donley’s Music, and this time Mom decided it was her turn for a new guitar! She’s taking home this beautiful Crossroads Professional Series acoustic. 🎸

Thank you, Jessica, for trusting us with the lessons AND the guitars. We appreciate y’all!

From smooth, warm overdrive to that classic mid-pushed crunch, the Horseman packs some serious tone into a tiny pedal. Hear it for yourself and let us know what you think!

🚦 NEW TRAFFIC LIGHT AT STRINGER RD & HWY 140

With the new red light at Stringer Road and Hwy 140, we know getting in and out of the area may look a little different.

We’re open, we’re easy to get to, and we appreciate y’all continuing to shop local and support Donley’s Music! 🎸

Fumbling my way through “Wayfaring Stranger” on a 1929 National Style 1 Tricone Squareneck. Nearly 100 years old and still has a sound you just can’t fake. This one also has a 1970s DiMarzio Filteron pickup installed—a seriously cool piece of vintage history. 🎶
