This place is probably the number 1 best music place in Modesto. I repaired my saxophone and it looked brand new I also got an AirTag and 3 reeds. The guy at the counter was very nice and patient even though I asked a bunch of annoying questions to him. So I think if your ever in search for an instrument in Modesto come to Langlois! read more

I really want to support local music stores over big box retailers or online sellers, and as a local, experienced musician I generally try to start local first. Unfortunately, my recent experience at Langlois Music Co was disappointing due to their outdated return policy. In today's market, where most reputable music retailers offer reasonable return or exchange options, their no refunds (or exchange) policy makes it difficult to justify purchasing gear here. I bought some speaker cables that turned out to not be an option for me. I hadn't even used them and they still wouldn't let me return or offer to exchange them or even store credit. Very odd. The staff was courteous, but policies matter, and this one ultimately pushes me away from advocating local in this case. I'm sharing this so other musicians are aware before making a purchase. I hope the store modernizes this policy in the future, because I'd prefer to support a local shop rather than a big box store or online retailer. read more

Beautiful store, professional service, and a Modesto gem. My son takes piano lessons here and it's been a year and it's a delight to listen to him play at home. They also offer packages for those who don't want to commit yet to a regular schedule. You can get your instruments tuned here and buy instruments and sheet music. read more

Langlois was recommended to us by a friend over a year ago. Our three kids go to Langlois for piano lessons and they are the best. Their teacher Theresa Smith is not only professional but very nice, approachable, informative, supportive and personable. In fact, all of the staff are, including the Owner Philip. They have created an environment that is conducive to learning music and we highly recommend them. read more

This is an amazing store. The staff is very kind and knowledgeable and they had a wide selection of high quality instruments. I could tell they love music and want to share it with others. They also have a lot of music books in store. This is definitely one of my go to music stores! read more

I have been wanting to get guitar lessons for quite some time and was very hesitant as to where to go. I came in today and was helped by Philip, who was very knowledgeable and helped steer me in the right direction. I bought I prep book from them and cannot wait to show up for lessons. Very professional people with a nice environment. I haven't had any lessons yet but will update when I do! read more

Brought a guitar in today with a pickup issue. It was around 2:30 when I dropped it off. I was shocked that they had it repaired within 2 hours. They were very honest with me and I will definitely go back if I have another issue. read more

I am recently retired and have always wanted to learn the piano. I stopped into Langlois Music and purchased a sweet Roland Piano keyboard. The owner, Phillip and assistant Zachary are absolutely awesome people to deal with. Great customer service and knowledgable. Didn't know at the time Phillip is the owner..... I also signed up and am taking lessons from Patrick Governor. Another awesome guy and an exceptional piano instructor!! Very laid back and friendly with the instruction and incredibly talented! If you are contemplating chasing your dream of learning the piano or if you just want to improve your piano skills, I highly recommend Langlois along with Patrick as your instructor! This has been really fun and am so glad I decided to move forward with the piano and lessons,,, Good Luck! Wayne read more

Kind and professional.. gave us honest advice and we walked out with a flute for my 12 year old daughter. It plays very well. Thank you.

Besides the mandatory friendly and professional staff, the loads of free parking in McHenry Village, and the clean bathroom, there are extras at this establishment that make this a business you'll want to frequent if you love music and instruments and love to play them. The waiting area and lounge for the parents and students taking music lessons has free wi-fi, very comfortable couches and over stuffed lounge chairs. The teaching studios are soundproofed and have see through glass doors and windows. There are numerous music teachers providing lessons in guitar, piano, drums, strings - four types , woodwinds, brass and brass winds, oboe and bassoon, voice, ukulele, and probably anything else you want if you ask. The music selection in stock is fairly complete servicing the instruments that are taught here, and the range varies from classical to rock to jazz to sacred and gospel. They will find any music wanted and order it if it isn't already in stock. The accessories for all the instruments sold there are routinely kept in stock. Their instrument and piano rent to own program supports students and hobbyists. There's lots of instruments to try in the store of varying kinds from glockenspiels to piccolos, violins, flutes, pianos, harmonicas, recorders, and on and on. They also repair, service and tune pianos and most other musical instruments. If you want something musical, these folks will be delighted and happy to help you obtain it. And they'll be quick, friendly and competent about it. I enjoyed my visit a few days ago to this store and think you will too. I'm looking for a large harp and a large glockenspiel. Maybe a cello and base for my instrument room. read more

Been coming here for years. The girls are always so nice. The sheet music they have is unbelievable. They have many composer's sheet music in many different levels, which is so convenient and fun! They also have tons of pianos, they do lessons, and they're great with kids! Highly recommend this place without hesitation. read more

I am happy to see this business is still around!!! In 1983, my parents bought a Kawai upright from Langlois for their musically curious 8-year old. I took lessons until I was 18 and it was a fine instrument for a young musician. I still play but I bought my own piano as an adult. The Kawai is still in the family and in beautiful condition. I am proud to say my niece and nephew take lessons and practice on that lovely upright Kawai. If well kept and tuned, it will last forever. Thanks Langlois Music Company! read more

If you plan to enroll your child for music/instrument lessons, make sure to read their contract very carefully and ask about when the automatic payment gets debited each month. I made a mistake of signing without careful review and counting on verbal agreement of a 3-months trial lessons during the summer. Therefore, I was charged for the month following the initial 3 months. At registration, I was told that after 3-months, my contract will be over and it would automatically terminate without any action taken on my part (since it was an agreed 3-month trial). However, now I'm told I have to physically terminate the contract otherwise my account will continue to be debited. I have been told two different things...at the time of initial registration and after they get you on auto pay. There is absolutely no refunds whatsoever either...once they get your money it stays there. On an unrelated topic, one of the two review of this store says it offers a nice waiting area for parents. While that may be true, they forgot to write how noisy and annoying the waiting area is because the door (that separates the lesson rooms and waiting room) is always left wide open by the staff and we can hear students and instructors talking and singing simultaneously! I could also hear some instruments though that's not as bad as the singing. The rooms are obviously not sound-proof! It was so noisy and irritating...I will make sure to go wait in my car for the remaining lessons. read more

My children have been going to Langlois for over 4 years. I have to say that I am beyond happy with the instructors they have had. Shelly and Phil are always there to greet you hello as you walk in. Langlois is a safe and encouraging learning environment. My children have been in several recitals with Langlois and we have watched many other students grow into there talents along the way. My son recently decided that the added pressure of academics made it too hard to keep up with his lessons so he made the difficult decision to end his guitar lessons. His biggest regret is that he would miss his teacher. That in itself should show how wonderful the staff is at Langlois. I would recommend Langlois to any parent looking for wonderful teachers to help their child learn a new instrument. read more

Have had my two kids taking lessons for over two years now at Langlois. I have become familiar with the friendly but professional staff. What has always impressed me is that I am always greeted each week when we return for our lessons always making us feel welcome. The store is always super clean and I love that I can peak in through the window of the lesson rooms without my kids knowing I'm watching them. Our two music teachers have always gone the extra mile with us making the process of learning for my kids as fun as possible. When we had a broken string the teacher quickly had the staff replace it. Basically... excellent lesson value with class for my kids. I feel like my kids are in a safe and professional musical place. I can't think of a better place for my kids to take lessons. read more

Pro: Good selection of items Con: These guys do not return calls or emails well, other stores in town are more reliable and will order things for you read more

If your going to rent a musical instrument be sure to read your contract carefully my family and i have rented a piano for about 7 years. Every month for that year we have been paying 60 dollars on it. Well after all these years we figured we woulda more then paid off the price for the piano and we would be able to keep it only to find out we have to pay 1000 dollar closing fee. So far we have paid around 5000 dollars for an instrument that costs no more then 3000 and they are still insisting we pay 1000 dollars to close our contract. Thats robbery right there. Dont go here to rent. read more

My husband and I have been taking singing lessons here for several years, and we really enjoy our lessons with Wendy. I purchased both of my pianos from Phill and I love them. A studio piano and a Roland. If you haven't tried a Roland you should ,it can sound like a pipe organ, a harpsichord, a calliope and much more, it's a blast! Everyone that works here is knowledgable and friendly and honest. They have a nice showroom with beautiful pianos, ukes, guitars, and many other musical instruments. Great service, we highly recommend Langlois. read more
