Olde Town Pickin’ Parlor

I started playing guitar professionally in college in 1975. I moved to Colorado in 1980 and kept playing. Started a store in Olde Town Arvada in 1991 around the corner in the building where Rolling Sands is now. I moved to my current location in 1996 (Olde Town Pickin’ Parlor, 7515 Grandview Ave.). The space was previously a music store that competed with big box stores like Guitar Center. Now, half the store is dedicated to a repair shop and lessons.
