Guitars – the Museum is a museum located in downtown Umeå, Sweden. The museum is located in a brick building that previously hosted the school Vasaskolan. The building dates from 1904. It shares the venue with a rock club, a restaurant, a music store and a record shop. The museum opened in late January 2014, in connection with the inauguration of the European Capital of Culture in Umeå.
The museum is run as a joint venture led by the people behind the music store, 4Sound, and the rock club, Scharinska, (which has retained the name even after the move from Scharinska villan to Vasaskolan), whom also are behind the investments in the guitar museum. Umeå municipality has supported the museum enterprise both through renovation and adaptation of the premises, and with an annual co-funding of 2.4 million Swedish crowns during 2014 and 2015.
It's a must visit for anyone into guitars and/or rock n roll. Wow!

One of the most fascinating museums I've been to. I was lucky enough you be guided by one of the founding brothers and I can assure you, t was a performance, not a regular visit - it was excellent! The knowledge they have, the musicians they know, the act they play, the collection they have, and the stories they can tell. It seriously must be one of the finest museums in the world, unless you hate guitars.

A must visit place if you love guitars. The brothers have an unique collection of the legendary masterpieaces of the 50’s and 60’s era, the born and the beginning of the electric guitars. There are some guitars you can see only here! They make a guided tour, on english too, it’s about 45 minutes. Totally worth it!
