Who is Savage Classical Guitar?

Savage Classical Guitar is confirmed as the largest classical guitar dealer and gallery in the world. Our unique and 2500 sq. ft. spacious classical guitar shop is located on the South Shore of Long Island,  NY, where we take pride in offering an array of classical concert instruments that goes above and beyond even the most discerning ear.

Over the last 2 decades, we have developed our stellar reputation and passion for curating outstanding work from the finest luthiers around the world. We have made it our purpose to find guitars of unprecedented quality and sound, bringing them together under one roof.  It is because of this, our extreme attention to detail and quality, that we only offer guitar showings on a by-appointment basis. This ensures that we are giving you the time, attention and space needed to discover a guitar that will change your relationship with music.

Through this process and the unique classical guitar store we have built, we believe that we have crafted a unique experience for artists, collectors and hobbyists to find a new voice with zero pressure.  It is up to you to find the guitar…we simply aid you in your quest.

We believe in one simple principle: You do not choose the right guitar. The right guitar chooses you.

The crisis regarding Covid-19 is clearly affecting all of us, in one form or another.  The need for separation, social distancing and intelligent behavior has to be recognized by all of us.  Clean protocols need to be in effect, as they are here in my gallery at all times.

My point here is that we are always practicing clean protocols, wiping guitars, cases, boxes and packaging down with virus killing disinfectant (boxes and cases, not guitars!  Yikes).  The gallery is spotless as well.  I sustain inspection and cleaning on every single one of our instruments here every 3 months.  We begin our cycle at the beginning of every quarter, taking us 2-4 weeks to complete, where we are ramping up for a new round of maintenance as of April 1, 2023. Please note that Ryan and I are also vaccinated against the virus, having had my Booster Shot in mid-November, while Ryan had his as well.  To be clear, you must be vaccinated against Covid-19 to enter my gallery!  No exceptions.

We are OPEN for business, where Ryan and I are working regular hours of late, where we are still “clean vigilant”, but the secret is, we have always been, this is nothing new for us, including the above stated cleaning and maintenance of our guitars.   I am available to you most anytime of the day via my phone/text and email, 631-335-5447 and rich@savageclassical.com – We are committed to sustaining our community with the beauty of music, the pure safe haven of joy regarding the instrument we all love and cherish, and the people that support our great society.  Be well, be safe, be smart all while knowing that I am always here to listen and provide you with this wonderful outlet of creating music.
