I had an excellent experience with Ulysses! He did an amazing job working on my bass, and I'm…read morereally happy with how everything turned out. His attention to detail and quality of work really stood out. What I appreciated most was the great customer service. He took the time to explain things to me and recommended some products and tips to help me properly take care of my new bass and keep it in great condition. It's always nice to work with someone who genuinely cares about their craft and their customers. I definitely appreciate Ulysses' work and would recommend him to anyone looking for quality bass setup and service!

I am extremely disappointed with my recent experience at Guitar Center. I ordered a brand-new…read morespeaker Mackie Thump215XT 15" 1,400W and paid for a new product, but what I received was clearly a used speaker, Mackie Thump 215 which is a different model. The packaging appeared to have been opened, and the item showed signs of previous use. When customers pay for new equipment, they expect to receive exactly what was advertised. Receiving a used item instead is unacceptable and reflects poor quality control. This experience has made me question Guitar Center's commitment to customer satisfaction. I hope Guitar Center takes responsibility for this issue and improves its processes to ensure other customers do not have the same experience. I suggest is that you check everything before you leave the store make sure you're getting what you paid for!

I have been taking lessons from Frank for a couple months now, and have been throughly enjoying…read moreevery lesson and also seeing a lot of progress despite not having any drumming experience. Frank's teaching style is very open and catered to the student and he makes learning very fun and is also very encouraging especially for beginners! I would highly recommend if you're looking for a drum teacher/lessons, Frank is very helpful and knowledgeable!

I am completely dumfounded that someone could leave a negative review of Frank's efforts in any…read morecapacity, whether they be studio drumming, lessons, recording--you name it. He is a consummate professional and one of the hardest working people I have ever met in my life, who makes this look easy (doing music professionally). The only people who would leave a negative review are posers and reverse-shills. Having worked with Frank in nearly every facet, short of being taught how to play drums (I have taught with him though for years), it goes without saying for me, that he is worth every star I just gave him, because that is what he is: a star and a sun. If you don't believe that as well, it is because you reside in the shadows, where you belong. A bright star casts a dark shadow, and there you are. Frank has played on many of my songs and has recorded and engineered on more songs than I can count well beyond my meager contribution to music as an art form. You don't need to take my word for it. Try him yourself, and then one will not be speaking from a place of ignorance, in the shadows.

The approach Yamaha takes is to teach it like learning another language ( I think that's how I remember it explained) and they pick it up quickly. It is so sweet to watch our little one learn and enjoy class. Parents sit in on this class because the kids are so little and it's really fun! I think it's well worth the monthly fee. I know they have classes for older children as well, from what I've heard, they perform remarkably. I recommend yamaha piano classes to all of my friends!

As soon as I walked into the store, a staff member greeted me and offered help--even though he…read morelooked busy handling some paperwork. He asked what I needed, and I explained that my acoustic guitar had a broken peg tuner. I already had the replacement part with me, so I handed it over. Instead of jumping straight into recommendations or upselling, he immediately tried to fix it on the spot. Once he confirmed it was repairable, he quickly cut the string, replaced the tuner, and got everything back in place. The whole process took less than 10 minutes! I live in Carson, so driving out to Lakewood and getting it fixed the same day was such a relief. This guitar isn't for professional use--it's for my daughter who's just starting to learn--so having it ready right away saved me a lot of time and hassle. He even tuned it by ear in seconds, which was really impressive. Overall, a smooth and pleasant experience. I really appreciated the quick, no-nonsense service and would definitely come back again for future repairs!

As soon as the student enters the house, shoes are off, hands are washed, masks are in place, HEPA room purifier is going and once lessons are done, everything is wiped off. Thank you for making lessons fun for the boys and setting all those safety measures for the parents' peace of mind.

Ms. Ruth is an experienced piano teacher who truly tailors her approach to each child. When my 8…read moreyear old asked to be graded (because apparently he thinks piano lessons should come with report cards), she just smiled and happily agreed. From the very beginning, he felt a sense of ease with Ms. Ruth. That comfort allowed him to ask questions freely, without ever feeling judged or treated like "just a kid." I enjoy listening to them having those mini conversations. You can sense the level of respect she has for a child's curiosity. Ms. Ruth is genuinely in tune with each child's personality, and that sets her apart from the typical piano schools that treat kids like a transaction. You can tell she's just as invested in them as you are.

We were lucky and got to experience Liron Man play for us since he was here for a music convention. He's been playing for 20 years and you can definitely feel how much heart he puts into his music. It is Dave's shop and he was very sweet. He actually makes the hand pans which is very cool. Daniel was our instructor and he was very engaging and funny. I loved his energy. He told us about the different types of handpans and went over the rhythm, melody, harmony, and silence. Daniel was kind and went around the room to individually help everyone. I'm so glad I got to try it out. I'll definitely be coming back as it's $75 for an hour lesson. It's also $150 a month to rent out a handpan which also goes toward the payment for if you decide to buy.

After a quick introduction, the story, and the lesson, I realized I indeed wanted one... just a matter of when. The lesson here was amazing. I didn't leave playing a full-fledged song (I'm a first-timer), but I left with knowledge, motivation, and a thirst for more. There was no pressure to buy any instruments or to sign up for any products. The only difficult part was finding parking. The plaza is U-shaped, with businesses along the U but not much parking around for customers. Some cars were parked in unofficial spots, so I would recommend planning for parking during your visit.
