Dropped in for a quick visit to see if they had any hidden gems. Music store was nice and selection was great. The folks at Frisco Music center were very welcoming and knowledgeable. I had a great conversation about gear and things. It looks like someone was dropping off equipment for a service so service looks to be an option. All in all, great music store that carries most things. Highly recommend read more

I visited Frisco Music Center because I was on the hunt for an electric guitar I couldn't readily find in other shops. Another music shop tipped me off that this place had several in stock, and upon calling I was delighted to discover that they did. Although they were initially asking over $100 more than some bigger guitar shops online, the manager agreed to match that price and I was able to take home a Yamaha Revstar! The shop itself is pretty cool. When you drive up on Main Street it appears there's a lot of construction and NOT a lot of parking, but this isn't the case - they have a spacious lot in the back. Enter through the black door and you'll find yourself emerging into the shop near a wall of ukuleles. The store basically appeared to have three areas. The first room had the strings, acoustic guitars, (maybe drums and keyboards, I'm not sure), etc. The second area seemed to have equipment for recording and maybe some effects. The third room was well worth traversing the labyrinthine layout for, because that's where they kept the electric guitars and pedals and guitar straps. Despite being a small business they have a great selection. The manager seemed super knowledgeable and helped me pick some extra strings to go with my new guitar at my request. One of the things that really stood out to me too is that they offer a 50% discount on set-up service when you buy a new guitar from them. Although the person who does it was out for the week, I fully intend to bring my guitar back in to get it set up for only 30-something dollars! (Although, it seemed to play great off the wall.) Overall this is a great local music shop and should be on every guitarist's radar. read more

Frisco Music Center - Here's the beautiful Yamaha Revstar Standard I purchased at Frisco Music Center. - Musical Instruments & Teachers Near Me - Frisco, Texas

These guys are great. I haven't played a guitar in 20+ years and hardly did back then, so starting from scratch. Most of the time in that scenario shops direct you to.. whatever they want to sell. Not the case here. He listened to what I wanted and I got great explanation of the differences in the guitars and the significance of them with no push on what I should decide. Just exactly the information and help I needed to make my own decision explained in plain english with no weird attitudes. I went back and researched what I heard just to be sure and yeap it was all spot on. Definitely go to these guys if you are starting out. I had previously stopped at that large chain most go to... and might as well have stayed home and browsed online. read more

Frisco Music Center - Yamaha FS830 - Musical Instruments & Teachers Near Me - Frisco, Texas

See all

Great experience with Frisco Music! I took a shot in the dark on the internet to find case for my Yamaha Revstar and Frisco Music had one in-stock. I called first before committing and they were very helpful to ensure I was ordering the right case. Everything lined-up; they're a legit business, had the lowest price and they shipped immediately - the case arrived in three days. Will add Frisco Music to my Rolodex of gear needs. read more

my wife and I were visiting friends in Frisco and I needed strings for my ukulele. Their website also featured a Kanilea ukulele up for sale. I came in for strings and left with strings and a ukulele. The folks there are incredibly friendly and gracious. Great selection and a fun place to shop. read more

I would highly recommend Frisco Music Center if you need guitar work! I recently bought a beautiful partscaster off someone who was not skilled in the set up department; for cheap. Upon bringing the guitar home it had some issues such as sharp fret ends, dry fretboard, fret buzz, and a ground buzz issue. I wanted it to get fixed so I could play it. I decided to bring it in to a gentleman by the name of Steve who was very grateful for the opportunity to work on it. I explained this to Steve all the issues I was having and he said that he would take care of it. A few days went by and I was notified that the guitar was ready. I stepped into the shop and saw my beautiful strat hanging on the wall, I pulled it down and was really blown away by the work done on it. The difference was night and day. The action height was sent properly, the fret and ground buzz were gone, and the fretboard was polished and the sharp fret ends where taken care of. Most importantly, Steve informed me that if anything is wrong bring it back to him because he stands behind his work. I would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a good set up. Steve will take great care of you! read more

Frisco Music Center - Stratocaster set up by Steve - Musical Instruments & Teachers Near Me - Frisco, Texas

I took two guitars to Steve to be setup. The first one had some issues with high action and fret buzz. When I got the guitar back, the exact same fret buzz was there, so I'm pretty sure nothing was even attempted there. I took it back and he got rid of the buzz, but by raising the action which was already a mile high. I followed some YouTube videos on fret leveling and made some cardboard shims, and it plays great now. I don't think he wanted to take the time to fret level. I also took a new acoustic guitar to Steve to be setup. The action was way too high for my tastes. When I got it back, the action was exactly the same. I again followed YouTube videos on setting up acoustic guitars, and looking at the nut and saddle, I'm 99% certain that the only thing he did was adjust the truss rod and charged me $54 for it. The nut and saddle looked completely factory new. I've come to the conclusion that no one cares about my guitars as much as me, and so I will be doing all my own setups from now on. read more

You can tell when a music store is ran by people who are passionate about music and instruments. Pretty nice selection of guitars. Eli (I believe that was his name) is helpful and welcoming. Go to a local store any day over Guitar Center. read more

Good guys. Good techs. Answer questions well. Also pretty good selection of guitars on hand. I definitely enjoy doing business there read more

I was in a huge bind- my volume pedal had broken and it was 30 minutes from all the guitar stores closing. I couldn't leave rehearsal, and I was looking for options. Bob at Frisco Music Center was an absolute lifesaver and found a way to get a new pedal to me after hours. Who does that?!? Love this place- highly recommend!!! read more

If you are looking for guitar lessons do not go here. They tell you to contact them to set up lessons but they never text you back or call. How can you run a business if you do not communicate with your customers? They do not value your services take your business elsewhere. read more

I've been looking to buy an Ibanex AZ242 guitar. So I tried to contact them. They have no email contact, all you can do is call. I tried to sign up on their website, but that failed because they never sent the confirmation email. Given their poor online presence, I can't imagine how bad the store is! I don't call p[laces, that's the stone age. read more

The only reason they get a 2 star is because Mike and Steve Anderson are great guys- both friendly and knowledgeable. However, I was looking to buy a guitar and played 3 different models in a 45 minute span when a white haired man asked if I was going to buy the guitar and when I said probably not today (because I wasn't sold on which one I wanted) he rudely told me I was done, took my guitar, and unplugged my amp. My friend was actually looking to buy an acoustic that very day in the store because of how friendly Mike and Steve were, but we decided to take our business elsewhere due to how the white haired man treated us when we were trying out guitars. read more

Heard about this shop from a client of mine and decided to check them out. Great bunch of guys, quality selection of gear and instruments. I worked a trade with them for a Telecaster copy and couldn't be happier. Never felt like they were trying to lowball me. Good, honest people. Will do business with them in the future. read more

my boyfriend just got a guitar and needed some strings! He hasn't played before so he didn't know how to change the strings/ which strings to buy. He called this place to ask a few questions- i believe his name was Rob... he was SUPER nice and had great customer service in the 10 minutes we spoke via phone & pick up... we only came for curbside pick up but he was so helpful and kind to us!!! this place is awesome!- and we will be back for any music needs! read more

Mike and the guys at Frisco Music Center are great to do business with. Up to this point, have done all my guitar purchasing/trading with Guitar Center. That changed today, I worked a trade with them and I am very, very satisfied with the transaction. If you want a no nonsense, honest music store to deal with, Frisco Music Center is it! I will definately do business with them again! read more

I noticed this place recently, and decided to stop in and check it out. They've got a nice selection of ukuleles. I don't think I've ever seen that many ukuleles in one place before! The best thing about this place is the staff. When I walked in, I saw all of them helping somebody, and they all had smiles on their faces. The staff members sat down with me for a long time, showing me different guitars and playing techniques, and explaining the way that the electronics work. In general, I could just tell that the staff enjoyed their job and were very knowledgeable about the products that they were selling. These guys are true musicians and luthiers. I had a great time visiting with the staff, and I plan to make this shop my first choice from now on. read more

I had an issue with my Taylor and I'm driving by and decide to stop in. Talk to Steve Anderson and describe the problem. He asks a few questions, then says, "I think it's very likely *xyz*, you can try dexoit on the leads and it will probably fix it right up, if not, bring it in and I'll take a look". I did what he said and works great. Wow, honesty, and... he nails it the diagnosis from my description. I'll be back and I'm gonna start going in there to buy stuff. read more

Steve Anderson put together a Les Paul for me. It turned out amazing and plays like butter, sounds even better. Very talented luthier, glad to have him close. read more

Frisco Music Center - Thanks Steve, she's amazing - Musical Instruments & Teachers Near Me - Frisco, Texas

Neat place to check out. Lots of guitars. Cool peeps. Enjoyed talking with employees. Wil return soon.

Great place to shop with informed staff and musicians. If I lived closer they would be in trouble seeing me at least once a week. These guys really know their stuff and they take the time to inform you what is the best for the bang-for-your-buck! Thanks, David P and entire staff read more

Incredibly nice staff. Made you feel welcome and is well stocked with everything you would need.

I grew up with Spier music out in the Grove. When it shut down and GC moved in it spoke doom for a lot of places. I went online to find a easily priced keyboard for my daughter of 6 years. I discovered this place. I walked in and it just took me back. The individual that helped me was knowledgeable and I felt I could ask any question no matter how dumb it might have been. This place is a throwback and I look forward to purchasing my kid's instruments from here in the future. read more

I have to say, this is a great music store. I stopped in (for the first time) to look at guitars, and the owner's immediately acknowledged me, and came to talk to me about what I was looking for. We spent a good half an hour testing guitars, both me playing and them playing so I could listen and make the right choice. Overall, I was very impressed and will be back. Nice friendly place. Yes, I walked out with a new guitar at a very competitive price! read more

Nice small size family guitar music store... Take your kids here if you want a guitar instead of GC.... They will be a lot more into getting a guitar you'll keep for years. I wish this store was the norm instead of the giant music store chains...Plus they got real amps !!!! Not some proprietary solid state junk amps that you won't like the sound of the moment you bring it home, that you only bought after a rock star salesman at the giant chain store begged you to buy and pushed you into it. read more

It was wonderful to meet the shop owner and employees today. All were very personable, knowledgeable and helpful. I highly recommend them and will be back for lessons soon! read more

Great selection for all price ranges. Good variety and friendly, knowledgeable staff.

I'm a musician and other than selection, this store wins in every category. Staff is nice and knowledgable. They have easy access to the amps and guitars and they have all these pedals set up on an Orange Crush amp. Much more friendly than a Guitar Center or Sam Ash. read more

I am not musical but I have a 10 year dieing to learn the guitar. I bought a cheep guitar for her from Amazon. Me being "helpful" of course I broke it. I stopped in today and after a few short minutes he had fixed the guitar. I hung around to chat for a bit, very friendly welcoming shop. They will be my go to source for music help as I try to raise a musical kid. read more

Want to support a hard working LOCAL business? Amazing staff, excellent and continuously growing inventory. Big box may have a parking lot, but you can't beat customer care here. The best!! read more

This is a fantastic store! Steve is a guitar setup wizard. I took him my brand new ESP E-II HORIZON-III with a factory setup. The action was a bit high and I was slightly disappointed with my online purchase from another store, but not now. The action is super low and the setup is perfect. It feels and plays like a million bucks. Thank you Steve and Frisco Music Center. I'd give you guys 6 stars if it would let me! read more

Nice store. Friendly staff. Kind of place you could spend hours at and be welcome to do so. Nice selection. Just like the store and people where I bought my first guitars 50 years ago. Glad I stopped by. I'll be back. read more
