GC Expands National Presence with Three Recent Openings

Guitar Center (GC) has been expanding its presence nationwide with recent store grand openings in Orem, Utah (June 30); Cary, North Carolina (July 14); and Norman, Oklahoma (August 11).

These three grand openings further underscore Guitar Center’s ongoing expansion and its commitment to serving growing music communities across the country.  

The Orem store, covering 8,843 square feet, can be found at 64 E. 1300 South, Orem, Utah 84058. The Cary store, a 10,000-square-foot facility, is located at 7123 O’Kelly Chapel Road, Cary, North Caroline 27519. The Norman store covers 8,000 square feet and is located at 2202 24th Ave., Norman, Oklahoma. To celebrate the new stores, GC recently held three Grand Opening weekend events.  

All three stores feature modern showrooms equipped with the latest products for musicians – from guitars, amplifiers, percussion instruments and keyboards to live sound, DJ, lighting and recording equipment. Customer services include Guitar Center Lessons, an in-house, state-of-the-art music academy for players of all ages and skill levels, GC Repairs, an on-site maintenance and repairs service, GC Rentals, easy rentals of instruments and other gear, and Guitar Center Workshops, offering free introductory classes and instruction on guitar, ukulele, and recording.  

Shoppers at these locations are also able to enjoy Guitar Center’s multi-channel “endless aisle,” which gives customers the ability to combine in-store, online and phone options to purchase music equipment from anywhere.
