They have live music all the time. Great bands. Great guitars. This place is a neat venue, and they’ve brought in some pretty cool artists. Its an awesome place to see go for a concert. Great atmosphere. Had a wonderful time. Really nice place for a small concert. They had drinks available. I was there performing, and I really like the stage. The lighting is very nice and the sound quality it great. Overall very nice,.

Not the greatest music store around, but an absolute jewel that is full of history! Certainly worth swing by if you are in the area with a bit of time to kill

Wonderful historic venue space! I’ve seen this space transform from a electric dance party, to a small space for a distinguished lecturer, to a networking space for young professionals, live music, and more! Love Les and his team, every interaction has been enjoyable. If you haven’t toured the vintage guitars or been to/hosted an event here, I’d recommend it!

Nice tiny venue for small scale events. Seating on the balcony is a better option if you want clearer sound. Restrooms are right beside the stage which is little odd. Staff is very helpful.

Had no idea how cool & big this place was on the inside. Saw a great show & enjoyed the ambience. Check it out for a live performance sometime. Ive disregarded this spot for 3.5 yrs but will likely be attending more shows now that Im aware of this gem.

Neat little venue! Seen lots of good artists here. The music gear for sale isn’t the greatest, mostly in pretty rough shape. Still a cool venue though.

I am glad that this venue is open to see local bands & specialty events. It isnt fancy but it does bring much needed space for entertainment to the area. Been the several times now and never disappointed.

This place is a neat venue, and they’ve brought in some pretty cool artists. As far as musical gear, it’s more vintage and old-school stuff, but still great.

Worst experience with a music store ever! Lack of knowledge. Limited amount of guitar strings. Just terrible experience first and last time there!

Local and awesome! Not just for instruments or a music venue. They can host just about any kind of event. Be sure and look for the old “Ford” sign in the balcony!

Went in for the Kiss-A-Pig 2019 preview party that was being held here and I must say that I really enjoyed the atmosphere that Meteor has. The guitars are simply beautiful, while the stage isnt too high from the floor, but also not too low. The acoustics arent bad either for the bands that play here, as Snapback was the entertainment for the evening, the audio didnt bounce off the walls as much as I thought it would due to the size of the room. Definitely a cool place to check out when in Bentonville!

Review №27

Nice little gem in the heart of Bentonville. Not just a typical guitar shop. Host to various style bands, movies during the Bentonville film festival, comedy shows, etc. Theyve made significant improvements to the place since my last visit. Every music lover should check it out.

Shaw Davis and the Black Ties were at the Meteor Guitar Gallery tonight from 9 pm to 11pm. This is the third time that I have seen them at the Meteor.They were just as good tonight as they were the last 2 times that I saw them.Shaw Davis is as good a guitar player as you will find anywhere. I am a big fan of many great guitarists such as: Joe Bonamassa, Joe Satriani, Eric Johnson, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Zakk Wylde, etc. Shaw Davis is just as good as any of these guitar greats. He is a must see if you love great guitar playing as much as I do.

Wonderful guitar gallery that includes an amazing old theater. They host many local musicians and also allow the School of Rock to present their student rock concerts. A true member of the local scene. Go check out their guitars and other instruments....and catch a show.

Les Key and his sons started the Meteor Gallery with a dream to have guitars available for kids with no instruments at home. A place for them to experiment. More or less a big garage for all the neighborhood musicians, except Less garage is actually a vintage theater rescued from years of neglect. The Meteor has evolved into a large guitar and art gallery as well as a busy venue that will hold 370 people. Joe Walsh played there during last years Bentonville Film Festival. Congratulations Les!
