Friendly & sincerely helpful people.My kids occasionally get life lessons from the gentleman behind the counter. No apple pay,no biggie. Don't pick the low hanging fruit of Amazon & get the sweetest one(KYR). read more

Great school management and excellent teachers! I have been there for my cello classes for more than one year. I love the school! Highly recommend if you like to play any music instruments! read more

Very kind! Restrung my guitar right there and I purchased a new one; very helpful in discussing the difference between options!

I would like to think Kevin and Mary Kevin help me use my rewards and was very polite. Impatient with me at the register while Mary help me pick out a book to read that will keep me hooked. Can't wait to get started. read more

KYR Music - The books I purchased with there help - Musical Instruments & Teachers Near Me - Chino, California

They rent out instruments that have been in circulation for many years (14+ yrs) and have sustained dings. Even if you bring up the damage when initiating the rental, they will say "don't worry about it, it's all noted." But be aware, they will get you when you return the instrument! They will charge you and blame you for previous damage the instrument sustained. They are very deceiving and charge you as if the instrument was brand new. Be aware and stay away, go rent somewhere else. read more

I came in to buy a couple reeds for sax. The gentleman at the front was helping a customer but told me he would be right with me. He asked what size and brand reeds. He said they only had 3s in vandoren but recommended rico. That was fine with me. He made small talk and sent us off. Very good customer service. Prices were also fair in my opinion. I will definitely be back since my local music shop is closed. Thanks KYR! read more

Showed up for a trial piano lesson for my almost 6 year old daughter. The teacher wasn't there, it seemed something got lost in communication with Richard. I understand these things happen. Pretty sad but it gave me my answer as to whether or not she will take lessons here. Call before you venture over there to make sure the teacher is there for trial lesson. read more

Dropped in today to buy some new strings for my guitar. When we walked in we were welcomed by a gentlemen named Rob. Rob was so very helpful in explaining the advantages of each string gauge and had a lot of knowledge in general. Thank you Rob for making our experience at the store a great one! Definitely will be back! read more

Great people at this store. Brought my son's BCP guitar that was newly purchased from Amazon for restring. #6 string would slip out upon tension right out of the box, would not stay in its place. Brought the guitar in to KYR for restring, thinking I have to pay a labor price. The kind folk there spent his time to tighten the string back up correctly and even tune all 6 strings for my son all free of charge! It's hard to meet kind folks like these nowadays, provide service just to help others. Will definitely go back to this store for future shopping of music accessories just show support and any music instrument needs. read more

As a junior high band parent we love this place. Everyone is very helpful and has a variety of instruments available for rental.

I came here to get my son's guitar re-string. First time and I appreciate the easy transaction. He knew what I needed and also did it himself while I waited. I appreciate that he also checked all the strings if it needed any replacements and also tuned it. Awesome work!! We will be back and may have my son get lessons. read more

Daniel was super informative & such a kind soul. He was very helpful & knowledgeable. I am so glad I was able to meet him today because you don't meet a lot of kind people like him anymore & if you do it's very rare. My little brother is looking in to buying a guitar & Daniel provided all the information needed! Truly recon this hidden gem for musicians & talented artists!! read more

One star is the lowest because there's no zero star. I paid $40 for half hour piano trail class and the teacher played the phone all the time during the class and they still charged $40. Unbelievable. read more

Love this place! All they do is repairs, so you know they are experts. They do a great job! My sax was overhauled and now plays like new!

They're chill and I really enjoyed the service. Good prices as well. I highly recommend them. 5/5

I had rented a trumpet for my son for elementary school use. The first one we rented had an issue and they replaced it right away with a working trumpet. The rental fee was reasonable and the monthly auto-deductions worked well for me. The staff is knowledgeable and very welcoming. I never left the store feeling ignorant because they take the time to give respectful explanations. My son used the trumpet for two years and we recently returned it. I would use KYR again at any time. They have been a pleasure to do business with. read more

We ended up only going through with lessons for the littlest nephew because the older one's schedule is just too packed. And, it's been about two months of lessons now and I have to bump up my previous review by a star. This place is EXACTLY what we wanted for him: he loves coming here, loves the guitar we bought here, and loves his teachers (Emil and Georgene). Emil is his main teacher for guitar and piano but whenever teachers have scheduling conflicts, others easily substitute in and out. Fantastic set-up! There are, of course, the little things that could be fixed up just for the sake of aesthetics in the shop itself, but seriously, that's not what we're there for. Really lovely place to introduce the little ones to music. As a lifelong musician and a former piano teacher myself, I highly, highly recommend it. read more

We took our son's trumpet there to diagnose an issue and they were able to identify the problem right away. Had them clean the valves and it was ready as scheduled. Would recommend and use them again in the future. read more

Disappointed. I rented a trumpet for my son in the 6th grade. I paid $31 a month for the school year. They gave me the trumpet and I'm not a musician, so I didn't know to take it all apart and check it out to make sure they gave me a good one. I just went to return it and they take it all apart, but say a certain part is stuck. They told me my 11 year old son should've known to take it apart, clean it and grease it. I'm a working mom with a son who wanted to try the trumpet, and I wish when they handed us the trumpet and I paid the rental price, they would've taken the time to explain the trumpet needed to be taken apart, cleaned and greased. They said it's common for people not to know...I'm left wondering why they don't take a minute to warn their customers at the start of the rental. They said they would send the trumpet for repair and let me know how much I would have to pay for the repair. I paid for the protection plan every month, so they said that would mean I only have to pay half of the repair bill. I feel scammed because I honestly don't know if the trumpet part was already stuck when I got it and now if I'm just paying additional to repair their trumpet after paying months of rental and payment protection. Hopefully this review helps other hard working busy parents in the future. read more

Awesome place. Emil was my daughter's music teacher. The following link shows how her craft was honed by KYR : https://youtu.be/b5z1NajDs28 read more

Love this place . They are so helpful, specially Andrea. My kids are coming to Kyr for 7-8 years.There coaches are great.

We have been coming here for years, and we have yet to be let down. This visit involved having a violin restrung and tuned. The employee was nice and assured us the job would be done within 24 hours. To our surprise, we received a telephone call two hours later. The work had been completed, and the violin was ready for pickup. Upon arriving to pick it up, the employee was friendly, and the service was fast. read more

Great music store. They offer lessons and have a small decent store to purchase equipment from. It's obviously not huge or cheap but not bad priced either. I recommend taking lessons here read more

Excellent neighborhood music store. Super friendly and helpful. Helped out my family with a broken trump.

We decided to purchase the bells kit for beginning band. The young gentleman that assisted us took the time to show my son how to assemble the bells stand, gave him the opportunity to take it apart, explained what each piece was and how to attach the music stand. This gentleman (I should've gotten his name) was very patient with my son and very courteous overall. Great customer service. Highly recommend purchasing or renting from KYR. read more

Terrible customer service. Walked in, no other customers there. Just asked to drop off for a guitar restring. The older gentlemen there asked what I needed, i told him, and then for about 10 minutes he took multiple phone calls and typed into the computer, just having me stand there with my guitar. After standing there like an idiot for 10min I walked out, taking my business elsewhere. read more

Went here the other day to get my son's trumpet looked at and the service was excellent! I was charged very little for a repair that probably would've cost me an arm and a leg in a major store. I will keep coming here for all my family's music needs. A 10/10 establishment. read more

I come here for my instrument overhaul and they are so good! My instrument looks brand new when we get it back. My daughter has been begged to sell her instrument because it's so beautiful and works so well. Their turn around time and price is WAY better than Music Mikes! read more

Great local music store. Very friendly and helpful staff. They got my guitar up and running very quickly. While I was there I was chatting with a teacher and got some good insight on some equipment purchases I've been considering. read more

My son took guitar lessons for a little over a month and she just focused on a song not teaching basics and was a big waste of money I do not recommend this place. read more

My daughter recently joined the school band. We had a list of supplies to purchase, the gentleman who helped us did so very nicely. One of the items (horn grease) was out of stock so he graciously gave us a half full bottle for free. The other supplies were in stock. I braced myself for a costly check out but in the end I was shocked at how inexpensive our purchase total was. This will definitely be our go to music supply store. read more

I recently was given the guitar my mom had as a teenager, and being that I'd never really learned to play guitar before, I had no idea what kind of work it needed or if it was even playable. Sam Ash made a big deal about looking at it so I decided to call KYR and see what they had to say. Ended up bringing it in and the gentleman that helped me out literally could not have been more helpful or kind to my low-confidence in both its playability and my own ability to learn this late in life. He cleaned it up, got it looking fresh and spiffy, helped me out with strings and tuning too. I didn't feel like he was trying to like, sell me things I didn't need either. He was very honest throughout helping me, had great customer service. Most importantly though had the knowledge that I had been looking for with regards to this guitar. Knew what needed to be done and made it happen. Didn't try to make me replace all the original hardware that I wanted to keep. I'll definitely be coming back here for all my musical needs. Seriously, thank you again for everything. read more

Easy in and out transaction. Very knowledgeable staff, and they have a great process for instrument rentals. My son loves his trumpet and is excited to learn read more

Great customer service. Owned by a great family and always a pleasure to recommend this music store.

Love this store but they need to stock more supplies. Lots of their stuff is out until the next shipment.

We recently began online lessons with Adrien through KYR. Not only is he professional but so accommodating, patient, skilled, and talented. He is very willing to teach at different levels and meets a student where they are at in their progress. He treats his students with respect and displays the perfect balance between being patient and encouraging them to strive for more. The supportive staff at KYR has also been incredibly kind and helpful. read more

Took my daughters trumpet in for cleaning and repairs. VERY pleased with the outcome and service. Highly recommend!

Scheduled an introductory guitar lesson for my daughter with intentions to continue lessons. Got to the appointment to find out the instructor had already left. My daughter is disappointed and I am frustrated with poor customer service and a bad first impression. Planning to take our business elsewhere. read more

Sally is an awesome piano teacher...you can tell by how so many of her students perform during the recitals without being dependent upon reading the music. I have seen so many of her students get really excited when they see her also. Whether they need to learn to read music, learn the basic, learn more advanced proficiency, or even get a chance to compose and write their own musical dreams - she has the heart, soul, and experience to guide them through. read more

Similar to a previous review, I had a bad experience with the manager in charge, think his name was Rob. When I had checked in to see whether or not my instrument had been repaired and returned, I was given a speech about busy business due to band season. I understand the whole situation and am literally part of the "band season customers". What is more concerning is that I have to go out of state, and literally cannot retrieve my instrument unless it is finished before my departure. What i don't understand is why my service is not in progress when I sent it in a week prior, but customers who just sent in their instrument and demand it be done the following day are used as an excuse by the manager to not finish my instrument, talk about relative urgency and priorities! The only repair that had to be done was changing one singular pad. I was literally told "if you wanted it to be done, you should've sent it in weeks ago." Promises as to when it would be returned were literally backtracked and denied when it seemed that the instrument would not be here on time, and for some reason, the manager became upset and felt disrespected when I had tried my best to be polite. To be CLEAR, they failed to meet TWO deadlines. People deserve second chances, but the bad ethics, do not recommend. read more
