As a drummer, I can tell when something isn't right. The cymbal area is disorganized & nerds improvement. Things are mislabeled. If you want to sell, you have to have your items labeled correctly.

I'm always able to step inside and rattle off some beats on a drum set and since they are all musicians, no one ever cares. So as a drummer, Its always been the drum section for me but today I came in because I want to start learning something new. Injuries to parts of my arms make it difficult to play guitar but since I've always loved piano, I decided that's what I would try. I first looked on line and found some used equipement but decided to stop in and see what Guitar Center had. Shayne was the first person I spoke to. He gave me a lot of great advice and really tried to educate me on the equipement I was looking at. He gave me all the pros and cons of each piece, he didn't try to over sell me, and he even told me how I COULD save some money finding something used on line or even on their web site. The thing I liked the most is how Shayne actually explained the pros and cons of buying used and gave me the perfect amount of information to make a very educated decision on what I ended up buying AFTER I was invited to take a day or two to do some research on my own before making any kind of purchase. I did buy new, and I did buy it from Guitar Center, and it was because of the service I received from Shayne during my two visits with him. The shop is one of my favorite places to shop but it was Shayne that captured the 5th star!

While I was in town visiting my son, he mentioned that there was a music store not far from us that he'd like to visit. I wasn't prepared for the size of this place-it's far more than just a "music store." He had a gleeful look of awe as he admired the selection of brass instruments and was able to play a few of them too. He'll be ready to make a purchase soon, so he wants to know for sure which one is just right. If you don't quite know what you're looking for, or need some elevated service, you might find someone, you might not. It's a more laid-back approach to customer service-we had to seek someone out for help. But I suppose I prefer that over an in-your-face sales person trying to close a deal.

Kindermusik at The Musik Box

The Musik box is a pretty unique concept that really draws upon a lot of low-level things humans…read morereally thrive when they have it. Since I didn't have a lot of music training or general incorporation past early years, I feel like this has been a pretty magical experience of professionalism, well-researched theory, practical application, and most importantly joy to my child. We've been coming for over a year now and mostly kept with it in that duration, only taking a break for a small while during holidays. The Jamisons and co. that run the place really are passionate about their work and use well-defined structure with silliness to keep the kids engaged and thinking constantly using their methodologies. Really, the value is pretty great and while it can be a bit on the pricey side for those that are on the fence. While traditionally you may only have 1 parent relegated to taking to a "feeling" kind of class, it's really welcoming (and encouraged!) for all family members that want to join. Some of that value you that isn't on the box is building a community of people walking the same steps you are. Between the developmentally appropriate learning, lots and lots of options as far as times/days/age-ranges, and generally a well-put-together program - I'd wholeheartedly recommend parents give it a try if you can afford it!

This program is a great value for the monthly cost, my daughter is learning and growing and looks forward to attending music class every week!

I have had the wonderful experience of learning and playing music for over 50 years and when I decided to learn piano, last year, I was lucky to find Dr. Jeff. I have had many music teachers and he is one of the finest, if not the best. Dr. Jeff teaches more than the piano, in fact he can teach many, many instruments and many styles. It's so subtle. You have to be encouraged but challenged. You need discipline and gentleness. Dr. Jeff gets it right as teacher for older people. He knows our limits and pushes us just a bit beyond. Each lesson is a reward. I feel so much calmer and happier when I walk out the door. Totally worth every penny. Please give the treasure of music to your soul. Dr. Jeff will show you how.

We witnessed a man on their team publicly berating a parent just for following up on cancelled lessons (the school cancelled - not the mom). He screamed at her and hurled racist slurs! The words that were said made no sense, ignored their own errors and failings as a school, and focused only on bogus assumptions about the mom (who was as polite as can be despite the onslaught of hate). He made it clear it was for no other reason than because her skin was brown and she spoke with an accent (even though her English was absolutely perfect!). He included a comment about her "inability to communicate being the reason for her lack of success in life" (he didn't realize he was talking to a PhD with a double 6-figure job!). Still shaken by the lack of professionalism. The school also said they would refund for lessons that were paid for, but never delivered - then failed to refund. This place should be shut down. A lawsuit waiting to happen. Avoid avoid.

After trying some failed musical lessons for my daughter last year, I was very hesitant to try lessons again, but I thought I might give it another try. I'm so glad I did. My daughter begs for "piano time" with Ms. Becky. Whether Becky brings in drums, Xylophones, stickers or her British accent, Becky makes learning piano FUN which is very motivating for my daughter. My daughter can play several songs already and she's only been in lessons a relatively short time. As a side note, Becky has her Masters in music, was a music teacher for several years and is always on time and a delight to talk to. We feel very blessed to have found such a wonderful Mrs. Kelly! I would highly recommend her to anyone. Also, somehow she can teach in my messy house, with my three year old son running around and trying to bang on the piano keys! She doesn't even flinch being a seasoned Mom herself!
