About Us

A guitar shop with a human touch

Dale's Guitar isn't a warehouse with a checkout counter — it's a place where musicians come first. Located right off Geer Road in the heart of Turlock, we've built our reputation on one simple principle: help people find the right instrument and the right advice.

Maybe you're a parent looking for a first guitar for your kid. Maybe you're a gigging player who needs a reliable amp upgrade. Or maybe you just want someone to look at your vintage Strat and tell you what's going on. however you walk through our door, we'll treat your music like it matters — because it does.

  • Hand-picked selection of guitars and basses
  • Expert setup and repair services
  • Honest recommendations — no upselling
  • All local, all the time — Turlock born and raised
