Business Description
Own a Piece of Savannah's Music Scene
This is a profitable, long-established guitar-focused music store and private lesson studio located in one of Savannah's most desirable island communities. For well over a decade, this shop has been the trusted go-to for instruments, accessories, repairs, and private music instruction. It has loyal customers, real cash flow, proven vendors, and a location that genuinely cannot be replicated.

And now, it's priced under $100,000 — making it one of the most compelling owner-operator opportunities on the Georgia coast.

Why This Price Is a Real Opportunity

The seller is motivated and the price has been intentionally set to create a clean, fast path to ownership. At $99,500 for the business, plus inventory and FF&E at cost, here's what you're actually getting:

• ? Over a decade of brand equity — the community already trusts this store
• ? $249,653 in annual revenue — real sales from real customers
• ? ~$51,000 SDE in 2024, trending toward $58,000–$60,000+ in 2025
• ? Established vendor relationships with recognized instrument brands
• ? A loyal, recurring student base for private lessons
• ? A favorable, affordable lease in a high-visibility island shopping center
• ? Everything in place to operate on Day One — no build-out, no waiting

Building this kind of trusted, community-rooted music business from scratch would likely take five or more years, significant capital, and a lot of luck. Here, the brand, the customers, and the cash flow are already working for you.

The Location Is a Competitive Moat

Wilmington Island is not just an address — it's an advantage.

This tight-knit, higher-income coastal community sits just minutes from downtown Savannah's historic district and one of the most active tourism, retirement, and relocation corridors in the Southeast. The area consistently attracts:

• Young families looking for quality after-school activities
• Retirees and semi-retirees reconnecting with music
• New residents from across the country who are actively seeking local, trusted businesses
• Tourists discovering Savannah's rich musical culture

The store's position between residential neighborhoods, schools, and churches — with easy parking and strong visibility — gives it a natural community anchor role that a national chain or online retailer simply cannot fill.

The Business: What You're Stepping Into

Retail Sales
A thoughtfully curated selection of guitars, amplifiers, accessories, strings, and supplies. Approximately $40,000 in fresh, in-demand inventory at cost transfers with the sale.

Private Lessons
An established, recurring lesson program with a loyal student roster. Lessons are a high-margin, low-overhead revenue stream that bring customers back week after week — building relationships and driving accessory sales simultaneously.

Repairs & Services
Guitar setup, repair, and maintenance services provide additional revenue and serve as a key differentiator from online retailers. Customers who trust you with their instrument become customers for life.

Intangibles Worth Real Money
• Established brand identity and community reputation built over 10+ years
• Online presence with room to grow
• Long-standing vendor relationships and favorable pricing
• Optional transition support from an owner with 28+ years of retail experience

Market Outlook / Competition
This business serves a tight-knit, higher-income island community with above-average family density and a strong preference for local, convenient after?school activities. The store has become a trusted “first stop” for lessons, gear, repairs, and advice.
National online players cannot replace:
- Hands?on experience – customers want to feel and hear an instrument before they buy
- Local trust – parents want to meet their child’s teacher, not just click a button
- Community connection – recitals, student showcases, and word?of?mouth referrals
Opportunities for Growth
- Grow Lesson Programs:
- Add more teachers, instruments (piano, voice, strings, drums)
- Build Recurring Revenue:
- Launch instrument rental programs (school band, orchestra, and guitars)
- Enhance Online Presence:
- Expand e?commerce for guitars, accessories, and local pickup
- Events & Community:
- Partner with local schools, churches, and venues for referrals and cross?promotion
- Product Mix & Margin:
- Increase focus on higher-margin accessories, boutique brands, and exclusive lines
- Expand repair and customization
