The place quickly adopted new technologies and developed a new app and using online lessons. My daughter has been taking lessons for 3 years now and she loves the one on one interaction with the instructor and she became very good friend with the instructor, Frankie! The app is wonderful for checking lessons, practicing, cancelling or rescheduling the lessons. It's very great for parents because it's so flexible since sometimes things come up. Other instructors for make up lessons are also great, Sydney, Sam and Jin! The price is very reasonable as well!

They have learned so much and have had so much fun. All the instructors have such a positive and encouraging teaching style. I highly recommend Sydney and Jin!

As soon as I walked into the store, a staff member greeted me and offered help--even though he…read morelooked busy handling some paperwork. He asked what I needed, and I explained that my acoustic guitar had a broken peg tuner. I already had the replacement part with me, so I handed it over. Instead of jumping straight into recommendations or upselling, he immediately tried to fix it on the spot. Once he confirmed it was repairable, he quickly cut the string, replaced the tuner, and got everything back in place. The whole process took less than 10 minutes! I live in Carson, so driving out to Lakewood and getting it fixed the same day was such a relief. This guitar isn't for professional use--it's for my daughter who's just starting to learn--so having it ready right away saved me a lot of time and hassle. He even tuned it by ear in seconds, which was really impressive. Overall, a smooth and pleasant experience. I really appreciated the quick, no-nonsense service and would definitely come back again for future repairs!
