Make Music Day 2026
Free events to improve your guitar playing – no strings attached!
One of the best and easiest ways to improve the sound of your guitar is putting on a fresh set of strings—and no matter your skill level, from beginner to seasoned player, this event is for you.
Come to Open Chord Music Shop on Make Music Day, Saturday June 21 and attend a free string-changing session that comes with a free set of the new Elixir Attune Strings (for the first 12 registrants at each store). All are welcome—whether you’ve never changed your strings before or you’re a more experienced player looking to pick up a few tips from a pro guitar tech.
Building on decades of innovation, the Elixir Attune Strings are a next-generation acoustic set with a crisp, clear voice and a remarkably natural feel, without sacrificing long-lasting tone. Powered by proprietary technology, Attune feels nearly uncoated while delivering exceptional durability—redefining what players can expect from coated strings.
