These guys have anyways been great to me, every time I’ve been able to go on and make any purchase with no pressure – and even when I ask for suggestions, they don’t just point to the most expensive thing.
Very impressed with this store. Both Chris and Jim are very knowledgeable and super friendly and helpful. Jim helped me select a portable PA system for events in my clubhouse. He spent a lot of time with me explaining things as I only had a vague idea of what I really needed. When I came back to pick up my purchase Jim once again spent time with me showing how to connect things and explaining how things work. We did sound checks with Chris. I was very pleased with the equipment Jim recommended! I walked out one happy customer! I highly recommend visiting this store, and Jim and Chris!
Helpful and know staff. Great experience!

Dave and Tim and everyone else are super knowledgeable and always helpful. Highest recommendations, the guys at this store rock!
Most Helpful staff and pleasant enviorment!
When I need help they help me pick which one is better!!
Great staff, know a lot and are helpful. Huge selection of instruments, especially guitar. I took lessons here and the lesson rooms were too cramped. They have more than a dozen rooms and whenever I would go only 3-4 would be in use. They should connect some of them to make lesson-taking more comfortable. As is, it is certainly doable though. I, however, just started taking lessons at my teacher’s house.
I have purchased my Tenor Sax, 2 guitar amps, my combo pedal and 7 of my 8 guitars from B&B. I have worked with every salesman there and they are all helpful and mostly knowledgeable.
The inventory is a bit lacking, but it is a local music shop so that’s to be expected. You will not find many other brands other than Ibanez, Fender, LTD, PRS and Taylor here for guitars. Bass selection is mostly Fender jazz and Ibanez series.
Biggest reason I only gave 3 stars is due to their luthier service. Took my Ibanez AW custom in (purchased from them 8 years ago) to have it serviced. I had some minor buzzing happening due to some neck warping. Was charged $90 only to have it buzz more. I had been told that they were not great at this type of thing and it turns out to be true.
If you need servicing on your instruments, you’re better off looking for a local person that has more experience and time to work on it for you.

The staff was extremely helpful and nice but my only complaint is that the Strat I bought there turned out to be a knock of from China. The bridge and tuners are not made by fender and the neck warped within a few months.
Who in their right mind closes at 6 PM on a Saturday?!? Most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard. I would love to come in and give them my money, but literally every time I make the 20 minute drive it’s closed. That’s not how a good business works. You just don’t close at the height of the busiest hours on the busiest day of the week!!! That makes absolutely no sense!! That being said it seems like they have a very good inventory, i just wish I could come in the door and check it all out, but alas the ridiculous hours make that completely impossible. Thank you for nothing so far B & B.
Sincerely,
A seriously disappointed musician
