Love this place. Quality people, great selection. Best in Nashville. I recently had Jeff set up my Les Paul and I couldn't be happier with it. Been a satified customer for 15 years.

I tthink I got a good deal on a baritone guitar here. The guy that rang me up was very nice too. Overall it wasnt my greatest experience in a music store and certainly not my worst. The selection was good and noone was a jerk at all.

Wonderful locally-owned music store - great gear everywhere. I've been taking my guitars/basses to Jeff for set-ups/repairs for many years and have always been well pleased with the results. Thanks guys!

I called Jeff Marple at Corner Music in Nashville on 24 March and told him I would bring my bass on 4 April, and I'm coming basically from Huntsville, AL so I wanted to be sure he would be there that day. He said he would. When I arrived, I never got to meet with Jeff, instead I spoke with a helper who told me I can't leave my bass or get a place in line because he is so busy.

I informed him I had spoken to Jeff and I came from HUNTSVILLE (100+miles away!) but it didn't matter. Jeff Marple would not even meet with me and look me in the eye to tell me to go away. Corner Music doesn't want my business. The least one could expect is a business set appointments/reservations when someone is travelling distance to TRY to do business, OR, be told up front that its totally first come first serve. Neither happened. I DROVE 100+ MILES AND I HAD CALLED BEFORE HAND.

Jeff Marple is the absolute best at guitar repair you will find. He is a straight shooter and always goes %150 to give the best customer service you'll ever have. He treats every customer with courtesy and respect and goes out of his way to ensure outstanding workmanship. Five stars and two thumbs up!

A great inventory and store layout. I loved that their acoustics had a room dedicated to them and I felt very comfortable playing 3 different guitars. Their acoustics offered are diverse and there's truly something for anyone here.

I've been taking my gear to Jeff Marple for years and he is amazing. Best work. I have seen and amazing attention to details. The staff at Corner is also great. Same great service they have had for the past 35+ years.

Jeff is the man! He's worked on all of my guitars and he never fails to execute. Corner also has one of the best selections of gear in town!

Friendly and professional service, and Jeff Marple is as good as it gets for setups, repairs, and customization. He's worked on all of my basses, as well as taking care of guitars for every band I've worked with, and has never been any less than stellar, regularly going above and beyond. I've referred countless other folks to him as well, and never gotten less than great feedback from them. Great store, great staff, and the best guitar/bass repairs and customization you'll find!

I am glad Corner moved to the east side. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, the selection of Fender guitars is hard to beat, and the repair department is phenomenal. Jeff has over 20 years of experience in guitar repair and set-up. I never hesitate to take a guitar to Corner for service. It's cool they carry Guild acoustics, but I wish they also had Martins.

Most music stores do not make shoppers and browsers feel welcome and comfortable in my visit, the reverse was true. I live on the coast of SC, and my only option is Giuitar Center where the reps act like they are doing you a favor. I was treated with respect and courtesy snd sm going to use them despite shipping costs I will incur. This store represents how a music store should operate. George Palmer

Love this place. Have had several guitars worked on and they have a great selection of guitars and basses as well as tons of other equipment. One stop shop.

Cool store! They had a lot of interesting guitars and amps that I've had trouble getting my hands on before visiting Nashville. Their effect pedal selection was a particular highlight. Tons of pedals, and some tempting deals!

Larry Garris and the crew at Corner Music are by far the best in the business. Privately owned Larry, Ben and all the folks know music and the equipment thats needed to produce it. They will get you what You want or need at the best price possible. Give them a call or stop by, they are there to please you!

Hands down, the friendliest staff I've encountered! No egos, no bs.just a bunch of nice dudes who are really interested in helping you enjoy their gear and find what makes you sonically happy. I wanted to thank you for the great service and hooking me up with this amazing Yamaha FG-TA - my smile gets bigger every time I play it. Keep doing what you're doing fellas, you got a good thing going here.

Called about a piece of gear to see if they had it in stock. They told me on the phone that they did. Drove the 20 minutes to get there, stood around for a few minutes unacknowledged while they talked on the phone (by the way, you should take the more intense phone calls to an office). While standing there I noticed maskless folks just hanging around talking.

Once off the phone, I found out they didn't have the gear via an associate just looking around for. Never bothered to look at an inventory list or anything. No real remorse from the associate either. What a waste of time.

Corner Music is the best music store I've EVER been to! I'm a beginner musician and started taking courses for guitar when my instructor pointed me in the direction of this place. My strings were buzzy and I didn't know the first thing as to why that was happening. Well, Nolan, the Guitar Doctor himself was amazing at getting my guitar in a condition that is better than when I I bought it! Honestly!

He truly went above and beyond when it came to getting it to, as my instructor would say, "play like butter"! Seriously, I learned so much about my guitar throughout this experience as he was very knowledgeable and professional. The pricing for his services were very fair and affordable for a college student. This will be my go-to music supply store from now on!

Great store been shopping here since 1998. The staff is friendly, and they always have a great selection on the newest gear! Love my Marshall Studio Classic "Silver Jubilee head and cabinet." Glad to see they are a 5 star Gibson acoustic dealer, and recently brought back Gibson electrics. Keep it up I'll keep buying!

Friendly staff and a few unique guitars, especially in the back rooms, but the guitars weren't as well-kept as other stores I've visited. Most of them were out of tune, not setup well, or had dust on them, and the store in general wasn't very clean.

New location is amazing. There is tons of parking. Found a great starter guitar for the little one for a great price. Not only was it a great price to begin with but they were able to bring the price down and include a free case as well. Everyone who works there are outgoing, knowledgeable and very friendly. Will be back.

This guitar shop has a great selection of instruments and really friendly staff. I was psyched to see they carried Born guitars, a lesser known brand that makes great guitars.

What a groovy music shop in Nashville's 12 South neighborhood. It's such a great area to shop around so if you're a musician or music lover, you should definitely stop in. Our lyft driver is a drummer and he said that he loved this shop and the drum shop next door. Their the best in Nashville. The BF is a huge guitar lover and enjoyed getting to try out all of the different guitars and drool over the pedals. He had a blast looking around the store. On the plus side, it's also across the street from Edley's bbq which is definitely the best in Nashville!

Went in to this store today to buy an audio interface for my new laptop software Logic Pro X. Not much to say other than great customer service and great help from my man Cody helping me understand the software better and helping me make the right purchase.

Stopped by to grab some guitar strings for my son as he was moving into Belmont University. Didn't know what we were in for! What started as a 3 minute trip for strings turned into a 40 minute adventure complete with a "pick card" on the house AND home-made cookies from one of the sales reps (delicious, by the way). Definitely will be a "hangout" for my son while in Nashville. All the employees were VERY nice! Highly recommend! Thanks fellas!

Was just passing through Nashville on a road trip. Decided to stop to see if they had what I was looking for recording equipment. I found a mic stand I'd been looking at for a while, and it was only $22- compared to "retail 39.99" I'd only seen it for $35 on sale. Good location. Neighborhood is safe, very trendy.

Just a warning to persons who are accustomed to shopping at businesses firmly rooted in reality/this century-NO REFUNDS here. Of course, the first I heard of this was when I brought back my unopened items to return about two weeks from date of purchase. Luckily I paid top dollar for the items as well.

Out of town'ers that just stopped in to check out a local music store in Nashville. Everyone in the store was so nice and helpful. They encouraged us to pick up instruments and play and explained history of manufacturers and labels. Special shout out to Scott in the Acoustic Department. Thanks! If I were buying a new instrument, this is where I would be shopping.
