The store is clean and bright and a nice place to be. The employees were so helpful and kind. I felt like they were sharing me because everyone seem to have some thing of value to add to my visit. They have a nice assortment of piano sheet music. I bought 4 books which I am very happy about. They were very reasonably priced. It was very nice that I could hear a student playing the violin; It was very beautiful. They give lessons here for various instruments. I will be back. This is a very nice store with much to offer to the community.

Sent a Student there with an Alto Sax that needs cork replacement, octave key adjustment,…read morelubrication, pad and key check (possible replacement on some pads) and air leak check on an older Sax that is in good condition, just minor repairs. They wanted to completely bend the Horn and wanted $800 for it. This horn was checked by pros that only play this brand of Sax because it is a quality brand. It is perfectly fine, it doesn't need to be redesigned, just usual and customary maintenance. Received very poor communication from this shop. They shipped it out to somewhere in San Antonio, kept it for 3 weeks, did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to the horn, not even the cork and wanted an arm and a leg to fix it. Everytime we called it was something else wrong with it and supposed to cost a lot more than just a cork replacement and an octave key tweak. Meanwhile my student does not have his Alto and has no idea when it is coming back... Our mistake was the person bringing it in saying he didn't know much about these things and wanted it fixed. Which prompted them to think how much could they soak us for repairing this horn. BOTTOM LINE: GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!!! THESE PEOPLE DO NOT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING! They are bogged down with repairs from school districts and don't care about communication or quality service. Bait and Switch Place. DO NOT USE THEIR REPAIR SERVICES!!!

I purchased a Fender Uke from this location. I brought it to my local guitar store in town to have…read morethem show me how to use an electric instrument, this is my first one. Imagine my surprise when I found out that the installed Fender tuner didn't work. I called this Guitar Center and they told me to return my uke. Meanwhile, the owner of the store I was in called the Fender company, and was told this uke's installed tuner (and maybe all Fenders, IDK) is designed to only work when it's plugged into an amp. WHAT???? I called my store, they didn't know this very basic fact about FENDERS? Shouldn't they know that? How can someone who works in a guitar store not know the installed tuners don't work on something they sell (unless plugged into an amp)? Additionally, when I purchased this uke, they just handed it to me and went back to their computers, they didn't ask if I needed to know anything about what I just spent hundreds of dollars on. They could have asked me "do you need any help understanding this instrument?" Nope. They just went back to their business. There was no personal service in this store at all. But they sure did want me to positively review them.

Susan Leach of Premier Music Academy in Round Rock, TX must be the most professional and quality…read moreoriented private music academy instructor have ever worked with in my 35+ years of being a fellow musician. Susan Leach has been providing flute lessons to my son over the past 2 years with the first year being virtual due to the pandemic. My son as a beginning flutist entered into his second year of middle school already propelled to the highest of 3 bands at school. Furthermore, he earned top tier position in performance by winning district level and competed at regionals within his first 3 months of playing flute with other musicians in a live non-virtual setting. Susan's capabilities as an outstanding musician are well established given her tenure as a professional flutist in orchestra of which she performs, but not just anyone can also take that level of talent and teach another person. She is flexible on schedule and always has been accommodating. Premier Music Academy as a business is fantastic at communication and every one of my engagements involved working directly for the owner and manager of the school. All that being said, Premier Music Academy is my ONLY recommended school for private instruction in the area and they offer a wide spectrum of top tier instructors across an array of wind, brass, string (including all styles of guitar), and percussion instrumentation (yes including Piano and Keyboard) along with vocal instruction as well.

Fantastic teacher, soooo sorry to lose her!…read more It is my bad luck that we found Silvia this late. It took me a while to convince my 10-year old daughter to take violin lessons, so we only started seriously looking for a teacher at the end of the school year. Silvia had already had plans to move away from the area, but reluctantly accepted my daughter as a student. After the very first session my daughter was hooked! It is hard to describe in a few words the honest, truly satisfied smile on the face of a 10-year old... My daughter couldn't wait to go back, and insisted that we take two sessions each week. She practiced dutifully every day and could hardly wait to show off her progress to her new teacher. She was ecstatic after less than 2 weeks when she played her violin and teacher accompanied her on piano. Silvia has the gift of magically drawing in the student's curiosity, she is also a brilliant musician, and produces results very quickly. My daughter and I are both very sad to see Silvia move away. We are practicing diligently so that we can show progress for the first Skype session, which for my daughter cannot come soon enough!

Having two locations also makes it convenient for the summer camps that are offered and also if we need to reschedule and get a makeup lesson at the other location. There are also several recitals throughout the year so my son has really learned the performance aspect of being a musician. My son has ADHD and his teachers are able to engage him throughout the lesson.

He has taught my daughter for about two years now. She started from scratch, using a 3/4 sized guitar and has now graduated to a full-sized one. She plays so well that she can probably busk for pocket money. Chris is now also teaching my son, who while still a beginner, is making very good progress. We rented a guitar when my daughter first started. Rental of a 3/4-sized guitar (from Rock 'n Roll Rentals) was very affordable at only $6/month. We ended up purchasing it as it was more cost effective in the end, with two children using it one year after another. A nice bonus at Childbloom is that siblings are only charged half the price for lessons.
