They also sell a good selection of effects, amps and accessories. Jim, the owner, is like a walking encyclopedia of guitars. His team handles the normal transactions but he handles the high end retro stuff. I have purchased one vintage guitar and felt I got a solid deal. They allowed me to bring my equipment in to test it out and I was very impressed with the service I received. If you are in the market for some high end vintage gear, there are few better places in the whole US.

Then when I tried it out for one day, and wanted to return it, they said that my "7 day return" period had passed. This place must be the "used car" dealership of guitars.

On my first lesson, I was surprised that I learned so much about the keys, considering that I…read morealready had a good bit of experience. I learned the key names and how to read music notes. Then, I was taught the basics of how to play Seven Nation Army! On my first group rehearsal, I got together with two other students, a guitarist and a drummer. We got to know each other and learned how to work together as a band. We learned how to pull apart a song and create a music map. Then, we used what we learned and played the entire Seven Nation Army song together. It was so much fun, just jamming and playing a song together. I can't wait to go again next week!

I have bought a lot of instruments from them and am so happy with all of them. I will continue to drive the 1-1/2 hours to shop this store. Just wanted to express the immense amount of gratitude for Chad and the staff today! Chad, your gift of a harmonica to my friend Ben absolutely made his day and probably his month! Once again just a showcase of your generosity and kindness. Brenner, you certainly lived up to the hype I threw out to my friend about you as a knowledgeable and caring salesperson. His son is so happy with the guitar you helped them select. I live in Baltimore again now but you guys will be my store for life! The selection is fantastic. The prices are amazing. The staff is absolutely top tier. You walk in and feel so welcomed you never want to leave. I have no experience with the lessons but I have met some of the teachers and I have heard nothing but great things.

"we don't take those".. I even asked "what do you take then ?" when I was last told no and to that she says "we take Apple products, that's what people want".. I then bring her an iPad (9th Gen) with a cracked screen to her and asked what she would give me AFTER I personally got the screen fixed for her to tell me it wasn't worth it that she would only give me a small fraction of what I paid for it and its repairs. Quality of service is dependent on what you're bringing or buying !!.. I would not recommended taking ANYTHING to this store unless you called and asked first, or are willing to get lowballed for WHATEVER it is you're trying to get rid of..

My child attended lessons here and would come out upset thinking the teacher was angry with her…read more When questioned why she felt this way my daughter told me "she doesn't tell me that's she's mad but when I do something wrong she takes a deep breath or sighs." Homework is required for 30 minutes 5 to 7 days a week. You're required to sign and date a four page policies and procedures document. In the four page document, you will find you must pay 3 months in advance which is close to $400. If you decide to cancel anytime within this 3 month period, you will "forfeit" your tuition. You're only allowed one make-up lesson within a 3 month period (if the schedule allows). If your child is sick more than one time in a 3 month period, you will be paying for a lesson your child will never receive. There is a $35 late fee if you do not pay your 3 month tuition within 5 days of the electronic invoice. This invoice is sent a month ahead of time. You're not allowed in the 'studio' (house) during lessons and must wait in your car until lessons are over. Additionally, be sure of your commitment before ordering books which you're not allowed to return to the music store (over $60 to start) or the app which is used with lessons ($30 access fee). After providing notification of our decision to discontinue lessons at the end of our 3 month period, the teacher did not reply to our correspondence or thank us for the business.
