I've been in the market for a good but well priced acoustic guitar for awhile now. This place has a…read moregreat selection of quality Canadian made guitars at really great prices, as well as the usual Yamaha, Ibanez, etc. The owner (Al) was on the phone when I came in, but he acknowledged me and let me know he would be right with me. As soon as he was done, he came and showed me some guitars, let me try them out, gave me some advice, and then gave me some space to think about it. He was the perfect amount of helpful without pressuring me. They also have electric guitars, keyboards, and all sorts of recording equipment. I have had such mediocre experiences with the chain music stores lately, I'm glad this local business is still around. I did some quick googling, and the prices are very competitive with the bigger stores too. All in all, a very positive and informative visit. I think I've found the guitar I want! I highly recommend checking them out.

If you're looking for a new guitar or bass... check out the West End Rock Shop!…read more Love supporting our local business owners! The owners, Ang & Al, also own Mr. Entertainment in West Ed and Londonderry Mall! The mall locations are great but their Rock Shop is phenomenal! They have an amazing selection of musical instruments and really care about their customers! You can find Al behind the counter or chatting it up with customers on the floor! So glad they opened this location!

I bought a new guitar here. Service was alright although I did not know that buying a new guitar…read moremeant you actually get the demo model or the one hanging on the wall everyone was playing with but I guess that's fine they did restring it free so all is good. My problem with the place is with the music school. I signed up for five private lessons. On the 4th, I had to call in sick 5 hours prior. End of the month I found out that it was a missed appointment and I would not receive any more until I paid up for another month. I didn't like this. If you're sick then you'd still better go or you'll lose $60. After some back and forth, they did finally offer the lesson but by then I was not interested and did forfeit the lesson. Don't pay 1 month in advance. Besides that, you may not like the instructor.

Amazing service and advice yet again. I wish I could give Bella Music 10 stars, and I say without…read morehesitation that this is the only shop string musicians should patronize. As soon as I came in today, Jim dropped everything to assist me. He resolved my chinrest problems, replaced the tailpiece, cleaned my fingerboard, and put on a new set of strings. I Iove this place, and Jim is just the best!

We bought an antique Adolf Minnig violin made in Switzerland (1945) from Bella Music on April 4,…read more2015. My son made this choice after Jim Doucet set out about 8 violins for him to try. He was very patient and made sure he knew our price range before we began the violin selection process. Jim never tries to sell you anything you don't need. My son is in his 5th year of Suzuki Violin and didn't need the $400 bow Jim let him use as he tried out the violins. We got a carbon fibre bow instead. We also left our antique French 3/4 violin with him to glue together - there was a gap. Luckily, there wasn't any other major work to be done on it. Jim said this French violin was setup very well and the pegs were still good. Again, he doesn't try to sell you stuff you don't need. He also explained to us what he was looking for as he inspected the antique French violin. I've recommended Bella Music to the other parents in Saskatoon Suzuki Strings

Would absolutely not recommend renting from this company. We rented speakers and a microphone for…read moreour wedding, and at pickup they did not give any instructions for how to use the equipment like we had discussed over the phone. They also did not go through the list of requested equipment and left out a critical cable that allows the speakers to play from a phone. This meant family members were scrambling until hours before the wedding began to find a local cable. Without this cord the speakers were not usable to play music. At return, staff said they could only refund $20 for the cord that was not provided, even though without the cord the entire equipment was useless to us. Two big ole thumbs down.

Resonate staff is absolutely outstanding! From the moment we first walked through the door, we felt…read morethe incredible energy they have created. After an extensive online search for a local music school, Resonate seemed most attractive. I went in to view our options, and ended up signing my kids up on the spot. Meghan was most patient and answered all of our questions. The teachers treat my kids with utmost respect and care, while keeping me well informed and up to date with their progress after each lesson. They are energetic, knowledgeable and incredibly pleasant. Resonate's innovative membership concept leaves no room for excuses. By offering lessons 7 days a week, including late evenings, everyone has an opportunity to enrol, no matter how busy their schedule may be. Having two young kids, I especially appreciate the opportunity for make-up lessons in case we can't make it in. Also, the liberty to switch to other instruments at any time if my kids change their minds, assures me that students truly come first at this school. There are numerous other details such as reward points on each visit, complimentary studio time, clean and pleasant waiting area with an iPad bar (an unbelievably clever idea!), charity events, and a wide variety of services offered that has me just so excited to recommend this place to everyone I know. Its innovative yet simple concept is what initially convinced me to choose this particular business, and now I really want to see it thrive. Edmonton needed Resonate, and I hope more people get to know about it and help it grow.
