I called them and they apologized for not actually having in in stock at all, and promised to refund my money. Six months later, I'm still waiting. No emails, no texts, no contact at all. Completely unreliable, perhaps even unethical. Looking at other reviews, I see I'm not alone in this experience. Avoid.

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!

We feel that we are So Blessed beyond any luck even - blessed- to have found MSI program so close to us.

Reading music, writing music, singing music, playing piano, playing percussion, performance poise accomplishment- music flows in her through her and from her. So good for her development- mentally physically psychologically emotionally. All her life, she will easily access this avenue of expression and creativity. what a gift to give to our children! thank you MSI Dallas you ARE the best.

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 was a 5-star rater of Tone Shop until I went to sell a collection of guitars. Took weeks for…read morethem to respond and I had to follow up daily and then the price they gave was a great deal for them - not me, but I was willing so after hauling the guitars to their store, then it was every little issue with the guitars. the jack has static - 1979 would have that and a simple spray of deoxit but that equated to 500 dollars off their offer. The deal was for them, not me - looking around at their inventory, everything was marked up high so they were going to make double or triple from every guitar in the deal so I decided this was not good for me and called it off. No help getting the guitars in and no help getting the guitars out. And they were stuck on one they wanted to get for dirt cheap. Not a fair offer but lowball. I work in business and know there needs to be a margin, but theirs is around 80% if not 90%. Forget it!! They may have great items but run! You can get a better deal anywhere else with a staff that is not trying to blead you of every dime. Too bad since I proudly wore my Tone Shop Guitar shirt, told everyone about how great they are and the shirt has been tossed. Bottom line - you will get ripped off selling to a store anyway, but the lowball price and then the minor items their skilled staff can easily go through were obstacles and they used that for leverage. Real sleazy practice and a waste of my time! Again - the waste of time was the largest insult of all! Great items and I'm sure the staff is nice, but after this experience I will never buy or recommend this store. This could have been so much better and I'm still very surprised with such a low offer I was willing accept and they wanted to reduce that more for a collection that they would have been making profit hand over fist with the traffic they get.
