Minda also teaches lessons, so I signed right up. Great experience. She's patient, willing to explain things to my engineering brain, and brilliant. More, when it came time to change a string, Minda gave me a lesson. She even let me change a few strings on a harp she was working on. Telling me how to do it, showing me how to do it, then letting me do it but talking me through each step. Finally, doing it on my own but with her watching. Great way of learning. I was able to go home and confidently change the string myself. Five of five stars. And an extra star because she's just so darn nice about it.

I had a phenomenal time picking out a guitar for my birthday gift. I was in the market for an…read moreacoustic and was floored by how much selection they had in store. I really love that. They had a dedicated practice room where I could try each of them on and see how they sounded with their built-in electronics through dedicated acoustic amps. I found a couple that were really lovely that had a tuner on board which I had never seen before and ended up picking up a beautiful guitar that had softened beveled edges and was so comfortable and the best part was it was on sale and I didn't realize it! The staff were super helpful and very friendly with me and my three kids who are all musical and got to explore the drum sets together and learn something new about music. It was an inspiring and fun memory for the whole family!

Tone Shop is one of the best guitar stores in DFW, if not the country. The staff are really…read morefriendly and very helpful. Tone Shop stocks a wide variety of new and used instruments, as well as amps, pedals, etc. In terms of new guitars, you can expect to find Fender, Gibson, PRS, and Reverend - and maybe more - for electric. Taylor, Martin, Gibson, and more for acoustic. The cool thing though is they carry a range of instruments in these brands. You can buy anything from a Squier, Epiphone, or PRS SE up to a Core PRS or even a Custom Shop Fender or Gibson. And I don't just mean they have a single custom shop guitar on display, they have like a whole wall of high end Fenders and another for Gibsons. It's kind of fun to go in there and see all those amazing guitars. They've got guitars that cost hundreds and guitars that cost thousands. While they might not always have the same range of brands as the bigger store (no new Schecter, EBMM, etc.), they have an amazing selection within the brands they do carry. There's something for everyone. They have a decent selection of pedals, including Boss, Strymon, and more. A small selection of pickups too. I bought one of my favorite guitar straps from them. They've really got a lot of cool stuff! They also have sales periodically, and some great deals can be had! If you sell used gear to them or trade in toward something else, their prices aren't going to be as high as you could get selling it yourself online - but are fair for selling to a retail store. I think you can do a "sell in store" deal through Reverb with them too. I've been really happy with the guitars I've bought from them, and the shopping experience. They also do repairs, pickup swaps, etc. I'm pretty sure this location also offer PLEK. I've never done that myself, but I'm kind of curious about it and might take a guitar in go through the machine some day. Sometimes they host events at the store too. Overall I'd highly recommend Tone Shop in Addison.

I purchased a 1965 Gibson ES-335 from Charley's Guitar Shop in April 2021 after seeing it listed on…read moreReverb. The listing described the guitar as having "no breaks, no cracks, no repairs other than a refret." Recently, while preparing to sell the instrument, it was inspected by a respected luthier in the UK. During this inspection, it was identified that the guitar has previously undergone a neck reset, with associated finish work around the heel. The luthier has advised that this work appears older and predates my ownership. As many will know, a neck reset on a vintage ES-335 is considered significant repair work and can materially affect both value and collectability. It is also the type of work that would normally be disclosed at the point of sale. I contacted the shop to raise this and to try to resolve the matter amicably. Despite multiple emails, a phone call, and a clear proposed resolution, I have not received a response to my follow-up correspondence. I have now sent a further formal email requesting a response within 14 days. I remain open to resolving this fairly and would welcome the opportunity to discuss it directly.

This amazing woman rocked my world! Her knowledge of how the human brain works combined with her music carrear and life long quest to be the best teacher she can be, is making a huge difference. She also believes that if a student doesn't improve, is the teacher's job to find the way to help a brain that is stuck! She brought tears to my eyes... I am devoted to my piano practice; used to practice 2 hours a day! Developed pain in my thumbs saddle joints to the point of interfering with my job... that's when I quit; a year into it. Than I met Mrs Wunsch... she asks you to practice 10 minutes a day, twice a day, both hands TOGETHER in a certain pattern of the sheet music... Her lessons are only 30 minutes long; when the brain gets "mush" is useless, she says! She is also happy to share her unique story in the music industry, her life in Europe as a student and more. Bela Bartok is what i am studying as a beginner... and it works! Thank you, dear Cynthia, for bringing the joy of music back into my life. With respect and love, Stefania
