Went in needing instrument supplies, but not really knowing specifics. The owner helped so much, we left more knowledgeable and with everything we needed.
Also, the store felt very welcoming inside!

Very pricey and will give you outrageous quotes for repairs when you can get the work done much cheaper elsewhere

Went in for my son's guitar lesson and ended up coming home with this new beauty! Always an excellent experience! Highly recommended!

This store is amazing! not only did they everything I needed for my new drum set but they let bang away on their showroom drum set for hours like Lars Ulrich from Metallica. Im new to drumming so I'm sure it sounded like I was beating a baby with a cat. but after countless hours and many annoyed customers later I was surprised that Bobby and his team hadn't kicked me out. Thanks again Bobby and the team I'll definitely be back!

A down home feel here. They have been around a long time now. I have never heard a bad word about them, so that says a lot. Tons of knowledge and experience about music performance and instruments.

My husband and I just purchased a guitar and lesson gift certificate for our grandson's Christmas present. Mr. Brandolino was very informative about his merchandise. We had previously done research on what we were interested in. I have been purchasing gifts on line, but talking one on one to someone who is knowledgeable about musical instruments and being advised of our grandson's teacher's credentials was worth taking the time out to visit this store.

They gave me a quote on fixing my guitar that was out of this world. They said it would cost more to fix it than the guitar was actually worth. Whoever I talked to said they would have to send it out to a different tech. Long story short I got a second opinion and it only cost me $15 to get it fixed. Good place to take lessons but don't take your instruments here to get fixed.

This place does not do instrument repair, and has not every time I call for the past 6 months. I finally took my Electric Guitar to West Side Music Center. I haven't actually been able to go inside for some time because they leave their neon "OPEN" sign on even if they are closed.
