(to other review- If you don't know anything about sound/audio, then you shouldn't rent equipment to dj. If your going to bitch about $50 then go pick it up yourself!) Alvis Music has been supportive of local musicians and DJ's for as long as I can remember. I would not hesitate to go there for any need, big or small...

I entered and was amazed with the amount of stock they carried in what seemed to be such a little store. I told the man, my grandson will be 10 and wants a guitar. I don't want to buy a "toy", but I also don't want to invest a large amount of money until I'm sure he wants to pursue this path. He led me to the perfect guitar for him, and it was reasonably priced. I'm very happy with the purchase and hope my grandson becomes the next Keith Urban! ;)

Every time I visit this place, it just gets better…read more First, their selection keeps expanding. As a Gibson and Orange lover, I am in heaven walking into this place. Decent selection of used stuff as well (was sad to NOT see the Ibanez lawsuit les paul rip off in there this last time, but hope that means it sold!). By far the best atmosphere of any music shop in town. Has a very "Chicago Music Exchange" vibe, with couches and chairs set up in classy little arrangements, wood floors, and bare brick walls. It definitely has the feel of a higher end boutique shop, which is cool. Contrast that with the fact that the staff is extremely unpretentious, affable, and inviting. Everytime I've been in there, the employees have repeatedly asked if I want to play anything (which... yes, I want to play everything). Short haired blond lady, small shaved head guy, and taller brown haired guy all just seem completely approachable and like they're as happy to talk shop as I am. Love the staff there. Overall, this is a shop that I hope sticks around. I will definitely be making the effort to abstain from the online giants in favor of supporting these guys.

And as far as schools go, I don't know why you would look anywhere else. I know ownership has changed recently but the new owner, Kelly Patterson, has been with the company for almost 30 years. I don't expect the culture to change much.

There was a varied selection of instruments, but we spent all of our time this time looking at the electric guitars. We were quickly greeted by their tech, Derrick, and another salesman that made frequent check-ins to see how things were going. Derrick did tell me that their selection of guitars had recently gone up quite a bit. We ended up making an unplanned guitar purchase and we left happy. I saw the old reviews, and I would suggest that people give The Music Shoppe another look because things change, sometimes for the better.

Every time we visit the shop for something or need help with her trumpet they have the parts and service that we need - a couple years ago I lost a small important part for the trumpet and when we went to the store to ask for help they went above and beyond and gave us the part we needed for free. We didn't even buy her trumpet there so this was awesome customer service. They carry a complete selection of musical instruments, sheet music, accessories, and offer music lessons for all ages of students. I highly recommend this store!

I went in the store to "test drive" some guitars. It just so happened to be my birthday. I had a…read morepocket full of money and intentions to buy a Martin guitar, kinda like a birthday present for myself. I knew they were a Martin dealer from what I had read. I'm not from Evansville. We were visiting from Kentucky. I already own some Martins, but I wanted to add a D-18 to my collection. There was nobody in the store but me......and two employees, one older gentleman and a younger guy. I asked to play a D-18 hanging in the front room. The older man told me to take it in the acoustic room and play. I assumed it was acceptable to play any of the guitars in that room. I took the D-18 back to the front where it came from and hung it up. I went back to the acoustic room and played two other guitars. That's when the younger guy came in and basically told me to leave. His exact words were "I have to clean all these guitars after you play them and that one you're holding costs $7,000." He said it in a condescending tone, as if to say "there's no way you could afford that". I told him about one of the Martin guitars I own that is valued around $10k. I was hinting to him that I know how to handle expensive guitars. He said "Good for you", again with a smirky attitude. So I hung the guitar back on the wall and left the store. I will NEVER go back there and I wouldn't recommend it to anybody else. They have some nice guitars, but they treat it like a museum instead of a guitar store. The guitars are to "look at......but not touch". Again, I was the only customer in the whole store. It wouldn't have been that much trouble to come in the room with me, talk to me, ask me what I was looking for, offer to let me play some guitars. Instead, they just left it wide open....and then got mad when I played a couple of the guitars. It was a weird, unsettling experience. My advice.........STAY AWAY.
