In 2002, Empire Music was started with the simple goal of providing the highest quality guitars, amps, accessories and services with a one-on-one personal approach at a guaranteed price. Each day our staff aims to make sure that everyone who walks into Empire Music has an amazing experience. This approach has allowed us to serve thousands of customers with a passion that will be hard to find elsewhere.

Since our inception, we have grown from a small 800 square foot store to a 7,000 square foot guitar player’s dream. We are Pittsburgh’s premier choice for guitar players from beginner to advanced. Our inventory is so unique because each guitar is selected with the customer in mind. In addition, we have one of the country’s finest custom shop collections where you will be able to see the best instruments from Fender, Gibson, Taylor, and Martin.

We would love to meet you, answer your questions, match you with the perfect guitar or amp, and welcome you to our family. We promise that your time with Empire Music will be unlike any other experience.
