    Used guitar was graded far too high. Disappointed to say the least. I would not have bought if it was properly described.

    I had my first guitar lesson with Sean and I thoroughly enjoyed it! I look forward to the rest of my lessons with him.

    We just upgraded my son's instrument here. Everyone is so nice and helpful. My son loves going in…read morehere and getting books. Prices in store are competitive. We've had really good luck here, and the staff is great.

    Scammy business practices, taking advantage of those who can't afford to purchase an instrument…read morewhile inflating costs and not presenting transparent numbers up-front. Mitsy at the Barry location couldn't provide the details on how they calculated my "pay-off" cost, and was still manually calculating things on her iPhone. It's frustrating to know they can easily calculate the cost to charge you on their plan, but not for a buy out. I initially called, and talked to a new person. When I asked for a manager they covered the phone and asked someone else if there was a manager available. The person behind the muffled phone said "Why do they need to talk to a manager?" In a tone that was condescending and rude. This is a great start to my request. I was then told to call Mitsy and talk to her. I called, I asked, and then ended up going in to discuss their less than customer-focused arrangement. - Details - Read your agreement, and take an accountant and lawyer with you. It's structured in a way where you return the gear, and you lose all your previously-invested money. I recently purchased a second trombone for my 11 year old. The school pushes you to go talk to Meyer Music, but this time I decided to ask what the price for the instrument was if paid in full. After three people from Meyer Music got involved, they finally manually calculated my final discounted price. It took them quite a while. They responded that the instrument would be discounted 25% (TWENTY-FIVE PERCENT), and by the time you drop three years of instrument protection, and their interest rates, the instrument was only 50% of the 36-month contract price. 13% APR, inflated instrument costs of 25%+, using the "law of 78's" interest calculations means you pay almost all interest at an accelerated rate earlier in the contract. This means that if you try to buy the instrument outright later, you end up still owing more than expected. I am not sure what value I gained by doing business with Meyer Music, but I can guarantee you I will tell everyone of this experience, and complain to the school district. I do not agree with their business practices. Ultimately they take advantage of a family/student who wants to try a new instrument, and if they don't like it, they keep your money. If they do like it, you end up paying a lot more for the instrument than it's worth. It seems like a disservice to the community and customers, taking advantage of those who cannot afford an instrument, or can't understand accounting tax laws. One more funny thing: While I was there, waiting for them to calculate my payoff and try to show me the actual formulae used, I heard a second person making collections calls. The person was hung up on once, and another time the individual sounded less than pleased. I guess it's business as usual at Meyer Music. Good riddance Meyer Music, I'll never consider you again for any music needs. Judging by the reviews on Yelp and Google, many others are frustrated with your attitude and lack of regard for your customers, the people who pay your bills and salaries.

    Second time walking in, ready to buy...anything. This time I was pretty set on getting an electric…read moredrum set. My buddy and I stood there looking at boxes of electric drum sets; no information written on them expect how many pieces were in it. Finally, my homie went to ask some fellah sitting in a chair around the corner scrolling (presumably) tiktok if he we could help us. The dude replied "what do you want." My buddy said, "we're looking to buy a drum set." Dude said "I guess.....since we only have 1 sales guy on the floor." This guy wasn't helpful. Quite the opposite. The boxes were literally more informative. I ended up looking up videos on youtube right in front of him. I asked if he found any information as he too had his face in his phone... he complained about the bad wi-fi. So sad... This isn't the guitar center I remember. The employees are zombies and the mini signs with employee faces and their "preferred pronouns" is a joke. It's even sadder that yelp with will probably remove this because I pointed out this foolishness. Lazy. So lazy. I'm was looking to spend thousands. Now I'm just going to buy a cajon off amazon or maybe just give up on music entirely. Seriously, it's that bad. This place used to get me amped (pun intended) to make music. Now, all I want to do is listen to Death Cab for Cutie on repeat and write dark experimental poetry.

    What a great experience! Was totally unsure about how to go about getting the equipment I needed…read morefor my in home set up but after Alec Smith took the time to speak with me in depth about products and price points in my budget i know exactly where I'll be returning to, to buy my studio equipment! Thank you Alec!
