Sims Music Inc. has served Columbia’s musical community since 1979, when founders Jerry and Debbie Sims established what would become one of the region’s most trusted music retailers. Today, with son Justin Sims continuing the family tradition, the store maintains an exceptional repair shop staffed by experienced guitar techs who handle everything from basic guitar setups to complex fretwork and restoration projects.

As a Gibson Authorized Service Center, Sims Music’s luthiers have the specialized training and genuine parts required to properly service Gibson instruments, ensuring these premium guitars receive factory-quality care. The repair shop’s expertise extends well beyond Gibson, with technicians skilled in instrument repair across all major brands. From electric guitar electronics troubleshooting to acoustic guitar bridge work, their comprehensive repair services keep instruments playing at peak performance.

The shop’s commitment to quality guitar repair reflects the same attention to detail that has made Sims Music a destination for musicians throughout South Carolina. Their knowledgeable repair staff takes the time to diagnose issues properly and explain recommended work, ensuring customers understand exactly what their instrument needs to sound and play its best.
