My daughter also bought a ukelele from Jim's and it's fantastic! I just bought another one as a gift for my other daughter, and I liked how they didn't try to sell me the most expensive one. They have lessons to learn an instrument. Currently you get a free month of lessons. It's awesome! They also sell sheet music. Great prices, great atmosphere, great employees! I definitely recommend Jim's for your musical needs!!

Don't walk--RUN from this shop if you value your instrument!…read more I took a custom guitar a friend of mine made for me in the mid-90s to Luthier's Workshop in Green Bay, WI for a refret with stainless steel frets. I was charged about $500 for the work, which is a bit higher than industry standard, but the shop was local and claimed it was certified to do warranty work on Taylor Guitars, so I trusted them with my ONLY electric guitar. Not only was the fret job botched (gritty frets throughout, with visible filing chatter on the crowns), but their ham-fisted luthier filed grooves/gouges into the neck binding near EVERY SINGLE FRET. When I contacted the owner via email, he said he was "sorry" I was "disappointed" with the service. He then stated that his luthier had claimed that the gouges were "already there." I provided him with photographic evidence to the contrary. He offered to fix the issues, but at this point I would not trust his shop to restring a $6 plastic Hello Kitty ukulele, let alone do any work of substance on my custom guitar. No, I will have to drop another $120 to have another local luthier repair the damage done to my instrument. RUN AWAY.

This is a very very good dealer! Their repairs are cheap, but very good quality! I don't think I'll…read moretake my guitars anywhere else! My acoustic guitar is a Taylor, and they are a Taylor dealer, so I feel a bit more comfortable with the repairs. They are willing to try to achieve anything that you want, instance, they helped me re-route an electronics panel, and will even take extra information over the phone! Overall great!

I recently went to Mr. Frye with my 1974 Rickenbacker 4001, which was in terrible need of a setup…read more For a reasonable sum (especially considering I asked him to put new strings on it, he offered to leave the ones it came to him with on the instrument, a nice option), the piece was practically transformed, and pretty quickly too. First fret action was lowered, the intonation adjusted fantastically, and the string height set just right. Overall it plays leagues better than when it came in. Would highly recommend String Instrument Workshop for any of your luthiery-related needs.

I authorized for them to refurbish one of my violins, and the guy said he would send me the authorization via email. Never happened. I would send emails, and the would not respond. I finally went in to pick up my violins, and the guy said I brought them in in a cardboard box. Never happened and almost 30 minutes of searching for my case, he found it. It was so damaged I didn't recognized it. Do yourself a favor and go elsewhere.

So much of my jewelry and other accessories come from Brilliant Stranger, stuff you can't find in Chicago. Another bonus is that she stocks a bunch of great Alternative Apparel clothing and makes her own line, ReFab! I highly suggest that if you love fashion and expressing your personal style, then you MUST make a stop here.

I got the guitar center card because there was 0% finance for 48 months. so i thought. well i guess they randomly can change the months at purchase if they feel like it. After realising my payments were doing nothing to my total i called in to find out i only had 6 months of 0 percent interest and that it all gets charged to the card after 6 months. I would of just bought it outright if I knew they were going to be scums.

The store manager Corey helped me out with an issue where a Markbass bass cabinet that I ordered was unbeknownst to them no longer available. It would have been nice if Markbass gave them a heads up on that!! After that, I decided to ditch the Markbass rig and get an Aguilar bass rig. Corey went out of his way to get me set up with the new bass rig just in time before a big gig. Both of my basses are from Guitar Center as well. Thanks again for the great service and awesome gear!
