I've been coming here for forever. They're always friendly, helpful and above all knowledgeable. This is where I got my first flute and now a customer for life.

Had a fall on my tuba (Mienl Weston 2155) and crunched the bell. They did a phenomenal job on the dent removal, brace resoldering, felt and cork replacement, and ultrasonic cleaning! Thank you for the great repair work and tuning up my "old heap". Hasn't played this well in years!

Our experience with PM Music Center was nothing short than excellent. We were there for an exploration session. Our goal was to get an assistance in knowing various instruments in preparation for middle school music class. We were assisted by Hayley, she was very very knowledgeable, patient and brought in a very light mood to the session to which allowed my daughter to on her own choose an instrument, get excited for middle school and also showed interest in further taking up private lesson. Hayley and PM Music is highly recommended.

I have been going to PM since middle school. The staff is incredibly helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. I had some work done on my flute, and developed a newfound love to start playing again.
