We had a poor experience from start to end unfortunately…read more I had called and left three voicemails over the span of two weeks, different days and different times. I never got a call back, and I decided to try once more where I finally got someone and booked a session. (Our other local music school was relocating farther from us, and my daughter really wanted lessons.) Our lessons were.. okay. They didn't always start promptly and they were usually in tiny, hot rooms big enough for one small folding chair (plus instrument and standing student with teacher). We tried it out for a couple months and it was not for us. When canceling, they assured me it would be okay, but of course they continued to charge us the following months. I called, and again no return messages. I called again, spoke to someone and they said James would call me back, but not a word since two weeks ago. I had to dispute the charges with my card, but save yourself the effort I went through and seek lessons elsewhere.

They did not have the brand that they quoted me the price on in stock and only had another brand that was around double the price quoted. Also the price of the strings they were trying to sell me was priced much higher than retail. Needless to say I will never go back.

His help was incredibly valuable and made the experience both enjoyable and stress-free. Gabriel was patient and knowledgeable, introducing me to several options and allowing me to hear and understand the subtle differences in each guitar.

Thank you, Gabriel, for your excellent service and for making this a memorable experience!

The problem with the triple shot installment was that it would not fit with the stock set up. Alex was able to cut out the pickup area for my P Rails to fit. He was able to do this all within 24 hours for me for next day pick up! Not kidding!! He works in a very professional environment. My Guitar came back to me set up to perfection. My Guitar was cleaned nicely and restrung. This was all done for an unbeatable price. Alex takes pride in his work and it definitely shows. He works until YOU are 100% satisfied with the result. I would recommend him to anyone looking for any kind of instrumental/electronic work. I will definitely be going back for road cases and pedal customization very soon because he does it all!

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!

A very disappointing experience! I came in with my two…read moredaughters--one needed to have her violin repaired, and the other was hoping to purchase a violin. The elderly lady who helped us showed clear disdain when I mentioned I was looking for a violin in the $100 to $200 range. She said buying a violin at that price was a joke, and repeatedly remarked how poor the quality of the violin I brought in for repair was. I found her attitude extremely uncomfortable, and my daughters felt embarrassed as well. I don't believe anyone should be treated with disrespect just because they are purchasing a lower-priced instrument. I was very put off by the experience, and I truly don't understand where this Korean lady's sense of superiority is coming from.

If you want more reviews, check out Jon's page on google. This is the same review i left there…read more Jon is a genuine master of the craft. As an engineer by trade, he approaches guitars with that same precision and attention to detail. When I brought my electric in, he didn't just jump into adjustments -- he evaluated the whole instrument first: the materials, the condition, the setup, and what I was hoping to improve. He carefully inspected everything from fret wear and neck curvature to pickup height and electronics, then clearly explained his assessment and game plan before starting any work. What really stood out is how much he genuinely cares about getting it right. My guitar came back playing better than it ever has -- smoother, cleaner, and perfectly set up. Skip the guitar center that charge $150 for a quick nut replacement and take your guitar to Jon instead. You'll be in great hands. I'll definitely be bringing the rest of my guitars to him.
