    The Baltimore Music Company is an essential resource to me. Not only have I purchased high-quality,…read moretough-to-find guitars and amps from them, including a 1961 Gibson Falcon amp, I rely on their luthiers for the maintenance of my guitars. I entrusted them with my 1965 Fender Jazzmaster to add a Mastery bridge and tremolo, as well as Curtis Novak pickups, in addition to a setup using their state-of-the-art Plek machine. The guitar now plays and sounds perfectly. Steve Blake and his team are far more interested in helping a musician sound their best than making a sale. More than once, they've talked me out of purchasing something from Baltimore Music Company. I've also enlisted their perspective on purchases I've made from the likes of Gruhn Guitars, Matt Umanov, Wilcutt Guitars and others. They've earned my trust again and again and again. Finally, in a world where most music stores are strictly an online thing, the Baltimore Music Company is a great place to hang. You can noodle guitars, basses, amps and stomp boxes in what is easily the nicest, most well-appointed music store I've ever been in. More than once, I've visited the Baltimore Music Company with a friends to shoot the breeze with the gang there before grabbing a beer at Union Craft Brewery a few doors down.

    I would not recommend going to this store. I've been there three times now, and two of those have…read morebeen bad experiences. For context, I am not a great guitarist, but I have been playing for around 30 years, and I regularly purchase guitar equipment. In the past two years, I have bought 4 electric guitars, 1 acoustic guitar, three amps, and 2 pedals from local shops. In short, I know most of the guitar stores here in town and have negotiated at all of them. This store is my least favorite in the entire Baltimore area. First, though, the positive. Overall, this shop has a nice collection of instruments. I'm going to focus on guitars and basses, but they also have a good range of brass and woodwinds and percussion. In terms of guitars, they have a good collection in all price ranges. In addition, their guitars tend to be set up nicely. Finally, their prices tend to be pretty good. I've read other people complain, but I think most of their listed prices are average to good. Because of these things, I thought this was going to be one of my favorite places to buy equipment. I was quite wrong. In fact, I won't ever be shopping there again. The problem is that the staff are a@#holes. There's not really another way to say it. There's one guy with long blond hair that pretty friendly and nice. Otherwise, the staff here are the literal worst. The first a@*hole is the manager. I stopped by with an original 1st run 1987 Ibanez Jem. The guitar has been repainted, and the bridge had been replaced. Obviously, this isn't a collection-level guitar, but a@*hole offered me $800 and told me that I should consider selling it for parts. The guitar is in nearly perfect condition and plays great. For context, I sold the guitar last month for $2700. However, it wasn't just the low-ball offer. It was his entire attitude. He came in talking about how he has a 1987 Jem (probably a lie) and how that may be worth $2000. He pretended to know everything about Jems and treated me like an noob. I chose to think he was just an idiot rather than dishonest, so I just left. Today, I purchased a Reverend guitar from this shop. Today is black Friday, so they had "deals" on quite a few guitars. They had a guitar that had been sitting on the shelf for over a year for $850. I asked them if they would take $800, which I don't think is an unreasonable offer. Chris (one of the a$%holes there) said that it was marked down to $850 already. I told him that I had been there about a year ago and that the original price had been $850. It was marked $899 online but $850 in the store. He told me that I was a liar, which I am not. When I told him he was wrong, he called me a liar again. So I told him that he could let the guitar sit there for another year. Ironically, as I was leaving, the nice, long-haired blond worker realized that the price on the guitar was actually wrong, and that it should have been $799.99. I bought the guitar because I thought it was worth $800, and I liked the guitar. I'm filled with regret, though, because that a#$hole called me a liar when the guitar was incorrectly marked then as before. I will never set foot in this sh#tshow of a store again. I will make sure to tell everyone I know to avoid it as well. If you want to get angry, this is a great shop to go to. If you would like a good experience, go somewhere else.

    Been buying guitars here for 25 years. Awesome staff and always a great selection and fair prices.read more

When I got there, he told me that they don't really sell mixers. They sell, guitars, mainly and repair guitars so he asked to see my mixer and took it in the back, took it apart and tried his best to fix it but I guess it was just dead. So While he was working on it, I met a regular customer of his who just happened to overhear my problem and told me that he had a brand new mixer board in his car and if I wanted I could borrow it to finish my gig so the guy at the shop, put my mixer back together, gave it to me, wouldn't except any cash for the labor that he put in so I shook his hand and told him that I was going to leave a great review for him on yelp. Needless to say the guy who loaned me the mixer everything was wonderful everything worked out fine, but if it wasn't for going to Brother's music shop and him having a regular customer in there, who happen to be a really nice guy I don't know what I would have done. So I give brothers music two thumbs up!
