Prompt shipping, well packed, great pedals. One of the few places — if not the only — that ever has Ezhi & Aka pedals in stock. The Double Tape T is an amazing pedal for all of the craziness it can b... See more

Great experience, would buy from again

Item as described, packaged well, very fast shipping. Writing this review because I was worried they weren’t legit, but the excellent Reverb ratings and Trustpilot reviews eased my mind and zero regrets I did. Thanks.

Outstanding communication and…

Outstanding communication and transparency. I had a preordered product, which was delayed by the manufacturer, and the team at Sound Shoppe NYC were wonderful at sharing updates. Item shipped quickly and very well packed, too.

The best musical instrument store in NYC!

Sound Shoppe NYC is the best. Dave communicated regularly about the status of my pedal, which was on extended backorder, and informed me about his communications with the manufacturer. The pedal arrived in environmentally-sensible packaging.

Support Sound Shoppe NYC and other small businesses!

Excellent and expert pedals shop

I keep The Sound Shoppe bookmarked so I can see their latest offerings and to learn more about boutique pedals. Each time I've purchased from TSS I've received my purchase quickly and in beautiful and safe packaging. I will continue to be a customer!

Return customer

Return customer here. Sound Shoppe is the best. Phenomenal selection of pedals from small builders, and great customer service. They reach out via email after your pedal arrives to make sure everything is up to par. The personal touch is always appreciated. I'll certainly be back again.

Really great little pedal shop

Really great little pedal shop. Cool to be able to buy from a small business rather than a big box store that doesn't care about a couple hundred dollars

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Highly recommend!

I'm honestly not sure if they have a brick & mortar shop you can go to or if they just do online sales, but I have absolutely no complaints at all! Great place if you're looking for guitar gear, particularly Boutique or uncommon pedal brands. Shipping was super fast and the price was perfect! Highly recommend!
