Cross Street: Near intersection of E Providence Ave and N Oakland Ave
Wade Starck opened Wade's Guitar Shop across the street from their current location in June of 1989. For five
years it grew inside of that little 500 sq. ft. shop, selling and repairing only guitars. At that time they sold
mostly used and vintage guitars. In May of 1994, Wade bought the building they am currently in at 3490 N. Oakland
Avenue, on Milwaukee's East Side, just blocks from the shores of Lake Michigan. This building has given them the
room to grow and expand their selection, but stay small enough to be personal. They still carry a lot of used and
vintage gear, but are also proud dealers of C.F. Martin, Rickenbacker, Alvarez, National, Regal, and now Eastwood
Guitars. They also carry lots of parts, accessories, and effects pedals.
In the shop are Wade, Alex Ballard, and Dan Hinz, and they all share in the responsibilities of sales, repairs,
and ordering. They are all guitar geeks, so you can be sure that they are into what they do. They will soon be

Yahoo! User Review:
the only guitar shop that will ever have my business. i'm in there probably 2-5 times per week just to talk
to Al and Dan, and to play some great guitars. I’ve bought every single acoustic guitar I’ve ever owned from
there, and i always will. they go above and beyond what i would expect from even close friends. honest
recommendations (i.e. if a product is not as good as something cheaper, they will recommend the cheaper product),
the best prices on Martin guitars I've seen ANYWHERE, and I've looked EVERYWHERE! Customer service could not be
better. Absolutely wonderful Martin guitars and always getting new product. Couldn’t be happier, and they will
receive my business until the day i die.
