Today was our second visit to Star City Music. Last year we purchased a used clarinet for my…read moredaughter (her old one was well loved for over 40+ years) and desperately needed a break. We have had 0 issues with it, it has had a successful marching and concert band season. Because our kid loves music (plays multiple instruments), we decided to purchase a used base clarinet too (this one by far was the most affordable option, we tried it before we bought it as well). She has played base clarinet for over 2 years now. She has used the schools, it was ok, but could probably use a bit of TLC itself. Star City Music by far had the best prices on instruments and reeds. I definitely recommend the trip--I'm told they can even deliver to local schools for reeds, repairs, etc. Both encounters have been knowledgeable and helpful.

This place is great always has what we need at a better than internet price. Fast repairs too.read more

She brought the in-house jeweler to see what he could do to repair what the other shop had had done. AmRhein's jeweler listened to my concerns, examined my finger size and shape (older with arthritic knuckles) and asked about my daily activities (). He suggested some options, told me that he could and would work the repair I chose and DID for 1/6 the charge from the store which broke my band. I am now an AmRhein customer and so glad to be!

What an incredible job AmRhein's did. The set, vintage 1950's, looked almost brand new when finished.

In addition, I have had AmRhein's repair and resize several pieces of jewelry for me in the past year and they have done an excellent job.

While exploring downtown Roanoke I stumbled upon Fret Mill Music. The display windows of guitars…read moredrew me in. Even though I don't play guitar I appreciate the instrument and did once play an instrument. The owner was strumming a guitar and asked if I needed help. The store is packed full of guitars floor to ceiling, They also have two rooms for lessons or demonstrations. They also have wall displays of guitars. The store had brisk business on a Saturday which I was delighted to see. A very, very cool store and my guess is the best in the area.

I didn't know if it was junk and needed to be returned or could be properly setup. Alex down at Fret Mill Music was very kind and jumped right on the repair. He worked on it and got the Sweetwater mess straightened out. I will never buy another guitar from anyone but Fret Mill Music again. It isn't worth shopping anywhere else. Thank you Fret Mill Music Co.!
