The Air Guitar Story

People ask us all the time how Air Guitar got its name. It all started when we were picking up one of our founders Eric at the San Diego Airport and he jumped into the back seat while Guns n Roses song Paradise City was blasting on the car stereo. He was so stoked that he started playing the Air Guitar feverishly and everyone thought it was hysterical.

We then went and drank a few too many margaritas on the beach and decided that Air Guitar was a great name for this place. If you think about, playing the Air Guitar usually happens when you are in a great mood and super excited and that is what we wanted this store to feel like all the time!
