House of Guitars, Inc. (shortened to the HOG) is a music and record store located in Irondequoit, New York.

In 1972 the Schaubroeck brothers relocated the House of Guitars to its present-day location in the former Irondequoit Grange Hall building.

consider a bizarre 'maze' like layout, where separate store rooms containing music related equipment are connected via long hallways, sharp turns, un-level floors, et cetera.

The floors creak loudly under trampled carpeting, and so many bands have signed the walls that the messages are nearly illegible.

This includes an August 1997 issue of People magazine, which features a page-long article on Armand Schaubroeck and The House of Guitars.

Several popular musical acts/bands have at one time or another shopped at the House of Guitars, including Metallica, Ozzy Osbourne, Mathew Sweet, Aerosmith, Jon Bon Jovi, The Ramones and Mötley Crüe.
