ARTHUR'S NEWS GUITAR HERO III COMPETITION! Arthur's, along with NAMM'S national Wanna Play? campaign is sponsoring a Guitar Hero competition at the store in June. The competition is open to all ages with no entry fee. There will be weekly prizes per level with an ultimate Guitar Hero grand prize awarded at a play-off on June 28th. Guitar Hero is addictive for real guitar players as well as avid virtual players. So take your virtual guitar skills to the next level! Contact Arthur's for more information.    In our continual search for the new and unusual, we've just received a really cool new product -- the Jumbie Jam steel drum  kit.  This is an authentic steel drum on a stand, complete with mallets, songbook/guide and Play-along CD.  A really affordable way to add the steel drum sound to your music!! WHAT'S OLD IS NEW AGAIN! Gretsch is back. Just a few models in so far. The Way Out acoustic is tongue-in-cheek fun and the retro models are a real blast from the past. Nice quality at a nice price. BLUEGRASS IN THE GARDEN On the 2nd & 4th Thursdays of each month during the summer, we're sponsoring a bluegrass jam.  From 6 pm to 9 pm (weather permitting) bring your lawn chair, a non-alcoholic drink and join us in the hidden garden behind Arthur's Music.  Enjoy listening or bring your instrument and join in.  Call for more information. Or check our MySpace blog at www.myspace.com/arthursmusicstore.    Arthur's Music Store     Arthur's Music Store has been at the same location in Historic Fountain Square since 1952, and is still owned and operated by the Arthur family. Although a lot has changed in the last 50 years, the level of personal service that Mr. Arthur instilled in his family and employees is continuing to provide a high degree of customer satisfaction today.    While mainly a fretted instrument store (stocking everything musical except pianos, organs and recording gear), Arthur's Music is known for having a wide variety of products from guitars to hammered dulcimers. We are one of the few stores in the Midwest where you can find pedal steels, accordions and Irish tenor banjos along side guitars, basses, drums, amps and P.A.'s. We buy, sell and trade. Our used stock moves quickly, so just ask and we will keep your requests on file and let you know when something that fits your needs becomes available.    Arthur's Music offers on site luthier & repair service and stocks parts and accessories for do-it-yourself repairs and customizing. Our staff of instructors offer private music lessons here in the store for most instruments as well as voice and theory.    We are pretty easy goin' here, and don't work on commission, so there are never high pressure sales. We want you to be happy and keep playing the music you love! "The story of Arthur's Music, like the story of rock and roll, is about one generation passing down to the next..." -- Family Act, by Mike Redmond for Indianapolis Monthly Magazine Read the whole story! Thank you for visiting our website. Look around as long as you'd like. If you've never been in the store, come on in! We'd love to meet you!
