Nottelmann Music Co has served the St. Louis music community for decades as a comprehensive resource for musicians of all kinds. While the shop built its reputation primarily around orchestra and school band instrument support, their repair department extends expertise to stringed instruments including guitars. The technicians at Nottelmann understand that quality instrument repair requires both technical skill and an ear for tone, whether working on fretwork, performing detailed setups, or addressing electronics issues.

The repair team approaches each guitar with the same attention to detail they bring to their extensive orchestral work, ensuring proper intonation, action adjustments, and structural integrity. This cross-discipline experience gives their guitar techs a unique perspective on instrument construction and acoustic properties. Beyond repair services, Nottelmann operates as a full-service music center offering lessons, rentals, and a well-curated selection of instruments and accessories.

Their commitment to music education shows through their dedicated Music Educators Corner and ongoing webinars, making them more than just a repair shop‚they’re an active partner in developing St. Louis’s musical culture. The luthier work and technical services complement their broader mission of keeping musicians playing.
