<p>Acoustic guitars, mandolins, and banjos are still the mainstays at Gryphon, as they have been for over 49 years, though our inventory of steel-string acoustic and electric guitars and ukuleles continues to grow as well. In recent years an important part of our growth has been in instruments by very small companies and individual makers, as we continue to keep one foot, or at least several toes, outside the mainstream music industry. Through all this growth, the constant has been our reputation for being able to provide lots of information about the stuff we carry, and for being able to repair and maintain what we sell. There are still no commissioned sales people at Gryphon, and even when it comes to accessories we emphasize what works, not just what sells.</p>
