I came here to get some information on music lessons, the people at the counter seemed nice. I only…read moregave them four starts because I really did not need their help so no question was asked except for " do you have a flyer for music lessons" lol. I did walk around and the place was nice , clean and organized. Taking a look at these prices of the instruments they have to be top quality stuff, nothing wrong with that. It's a small store but nothing is wrong with that. It's sits in a shopping center so you may miss it if your not looking. My experience here was short live, but it was nice to see the instruments and knowing there's a place by my house to visit.

I'm shocked at the negative reviews this place has because my kids and I have always had a great…read moreexperience. From shopping for new guitars, to dealing with unfortunate events like returning broken guitar and receiving store credit with protection plan, to signing up for guitar lessons just great customer service. George was an awesome teacher to my son, unfortunately I heard George pursued a new career so best luck to him. Milton was a great instructor for my first lesson, and Chris who helped my son after George left is also great. Tanner was helpful and showed my son and I how to change guitar strings for the original piece we still own. So much personality in these individuals, makes the lessons and visits so much fun. I had to cut my nails to get proper finger placement on chords. My son is taking a break from lessons because he wants his summer, but once school is back in session he will return. I know protection plan seems like a waste of money but trust me when you invest so much into your product you want it to be covered. This place actually lets you try out instruments like keyboard, guitars and drums which I think is super cool.

We had the pleasure of purchasing a piano recently and the process couldn't have been smoother…read more Daniel was extremely professional, very responsive and so knowledgeable. The store had a good selection and we were happy with our choice. The delivery process was also super quick, professional and hassle free. After the piano was delivered, Daniel came over to make sure it sounds perfect. He was thorough and found a slight issue, which he spent a good half hour fixing. I'm so thankful for his time and expertise. We're very happy with the instrument we purchased because we definitely got it for a competitive price and are very pleased with the value. Thank you to Daniel and everyone involved in this exciting process for my family.

My son needed new strings for his bass guitar so we went together (I'm a drummer, so I'm always…read morecurious to see what's out there. James gave us a very friendly greeting as we walked in. We told what we were after and he offered a couple options. Their prices on set of bass strings are about the same as Amazon, if not slightly less. But I did pay them to install them for us, which they did right away. As well as do a mild cleaning on his bass (which it was in dire need of). The drum department has lots of the essentials, and pretty fair amount of used gear at fair prices, but not a plethora of options. But I get it. I was in retail in a previous life. It's brutal. I support local when I can but I'm part of the problem.. I also order stuff online at 1 in the morning cuz I can get price and product comparisons and see what fits my needs and budget at the moment. I hope these guys are here for a long time. We need stores where we can walk in and touch and feel and test out stuff, and talk with people who are knowledgeable and passionate. Long live small businesses. Long live capitalism. Long live entrepreneurship. Long live the arts.
