    As far as I'm concerned, SIR is the ONLY backline vendor in the greater Seattle area. Dave has…read morefielded countless unreasonable requests from me over the years & has NEVER let me down. Truly a top notch / pro vendor with one helluva Manager in Dave D. Thank you SIR & Dave for all you do to keep us Rockin' in the North Left!

    I was in a pinch. I was looking to rent a bass amp for a show, and my original place fell through…read moredue to their rehearsal studios losing two bass amps that week. So I looked around, and a friend of mine told me about SIR. I didn't know there was one in Seattle, as I was only familiar with their large Hollywood, CA location. I took a look on their website and saw what they had available. I really only needed a combo amp since the venue was small. So I called them, and the staff there was very friendly. I asked about a bass combo, which is something they don't get a lot of calls for...so all they had was an Ampeg BA-500, which is a pretty solid combo and would work for what I needed. It was a bit tough to find the place, as it is only a block East of Stone Way. I got there and talked to Dave and Andre, who found out that two hours after I called THAT amp went out too. So they took care of me and gave me a deal on a GK 800RB head and a 4x10 classic Ampeg cabinet. A bit more than what I had anticipated on hauling, but good thing my girlfriend has a good sized back seat in her car. The gear got me through, and the process was quick and painless. The show went off great...and my bass sounded amazing. The lack of selection of combos was what was teetering between a 4 and a 5, but their service pushed them over the top. They were friendly and they knew what they were doing. If you need a quick rental, I highly recommend SIR.

    Steve and Kristy Smith are great owners and really kind people. Steve is very knowledgable and his…read morejoy in helping his students succeed as drummers is apparent in every lesson. He is also an excellent player and that translates 200% into his teaching. In my years studying with him I learned an incredible amount in terms of complex musical concepts applied to percussion, simple straight ahead groove and feel, and the art and science of professionalism. Everything he taught me is extremely valuable and directly applicable to being a better drummer. 35+ years after taking my first lesson with him and I am still using his original material religiously in ways that I never dreamed of. I just can't offer enough praise.

    I've been taking drum lessons here for years and love it!! Steve Smith is an amazing instructor!…read more He's a talented drummer and does an excellent job teaching and coaching me. I enjoy my lessons because Steve challenges me and my drumming skills have improved exponentially over the years. I recently started taking voice lessons with Natalie and she is also an awesome instructor! I've really enjoyed her teaching style. I'm not the most confident singer and was a bit nervous when I first started; however, Natalie has helped build my confidence. Even though It's only been a few months, I feel a lot more confident and am a better singer. The staff at the school is top-notch! KZ handles everything at the Georgetown location. She's very patient, super smart and funny! She adds a fun energy to the school.

    It had been about 5 years since I last played my clarinet and I decided I wanted to start up again…read more My instrument needed an overhaul repair, BADLY. After doing some research online, I found Granlund Woodwind Repair. The owner, Scott Granlund, had a lot of recommendations from professional musicians in Seattle, so I decided his business seemed reputable enough for me to give him a shot. The shop is a bit confusing to find. It's a single room workshop located behind Clever Bottle in Belltown, and I mean literally. You actually have to enter the bar and walk through a door in the back to get to the place. The shop itself, though cluttered wall to wall with instruments, parts, and tools, is charming. Scott immediately plopped my instrument on a table and appraised the work needing to be done. He wrote up an estimate, told me it would take about a month and a half to completed everything, and I was in and out in about 10 minutes. Now I ran into problems when it came to the estimated time of completion. Though Scott had told me 6 weeks, 6 weeks turned into 8, which turned into 10. I was getting a bit frantic, but after several sessions of phone tag and some tense emails, we arranged a time for pick up. Overall, I was pretty happy with the repairs. His quality and craftsmanship were very good and I could definitely feel the difference when I started to play. It's a shame it took so long to have everything done, however. I would have given him 5 stars if it wasn't for that fact.

    Mr. Granlund is pleasant enough to converse with but I could not get him to work on my instrument…read morein a timely fashion. It was in his possession for a few months. I ended up retrieving it and having the work done elsewhere. Perhaps the turn around is faster for professional musicians.
