Amazing as always JR is the best been guitars from him since I was 13.
Great service and knowledge. Made my guitar play better than it did new!
Great selection and prices
Neatly kept. Helpful but no price tags for browsing.
Nice person that really helped us
This may be the place to get an instrument repaired, but certainly not the place to buy. It does not look like the photo inside. I would compare it to looking like a run down flea market inside. As other reviewers have said, it was very overpriced. I asked for ukulele strings and they didn’t even have any. Most items on the shelf were very outdated and dirty. The selection of music books was awful. I can’t even see why they are still open as a music store.
Selection is sub-par and overpriced. You are always able to talk them down on the price however and the staff is serenely helpful and extremely knowledgeable. You can find a few brand name guitars and a large selection of drum kits. I think it deserves repeating the staff is fantastic!! (no I don’t work there) ha
They had barely anything and it was all used. They were very rude to me because I was a teenager!!!!!!!!
3. Big Event Music
Address: 149 E Grand Ave, Hot Springs, AR 71901 , Alba , Arkansas , United States
“BIG EVENT MUSIC” store! A must visit if you would like to learn how to play an instrument, rent musical equipment and/or purchase a musical instrument of your very own! Brent and Doug are two of the kindest, most knowledgeable individuals who totally LOVE music and know what music MEANS to their customers.
Guitar lessons, and much much more abound in this twelve year old well established business near downtown Hot Springs, Arkansas.
Great place to get what you need
Very Helpful! Thank you for your service to our community.
The guy I see on weekends named Douglas is always friendly and a big help.
Excellent service
Not enough inventory
Holy cow. I didn’t even know this place was open until I went inside. Not very inviting and the whole building needs renovations. Seemed very trashy. Almost made me feel like the items there have less value just because of how badly ran the building is.
I bought a lot of things from Brent when the store sold instruments and amps and was always happy with them. Unfortunately, things have changed. I brought a guitar in that needed a rewire job. I was aware they were busy with festivals but they kept my guitar for 2 months and finally called and told me they didn’t have time to fix it. Needless to say, I wont be back.
4. Music Center
Address: 2809 W 28th Ave, Pine Bluff, AR 71603 , Alba , Arkansas , United States
I love this place. They have a great collection of musical instruments and hard to find musical accessories.
Nice people, we haven’t purchased anything yet but we will be back.
Excellent staffers and great merchandise selections, very neat and organized. Have excellent repair group and any kind of lessons you desire
Good products and nice folks.
Good selection, kind of pricey. I had to wait nearly ten minutes to pay for guitar picks. There was only one staff person at the time I visited. I will still shop there, they are conveniently located on J street.
Good customer service fair pricing
They ended up not being able to fix my guitar. Horrible. They scratched the finish on my custom guitar. Didn’t put my pickups back on correctly, or even all the way. They also thought my input jack was glued in, when it clearly isn’t. Made a passive-aggressive about the guitar. Don’t take your instruments here.
Case And bow is falling apart. I wouldn’t recommend musicworks to anybody. Complete rip off. I got a 15 inch viola and within a year I had to get rid of it, because it was poorly made.
I thought I would take a chance on them, and bought an AllParts p90 spacer kit. Simple enough, most p90’s dogear covers are the same or very close. The All Parts one is WAY too big for Gibson, Epi, Lindy Fralin, and most dogear p90’s. Had they adequately given the measurements on their ad I would have bought elsewhere. They will refund, but with a %15 restocking fee because I opened it to see if I could make do with it, but it is almost 1/4″ too wide and 1/8 too long. What a waste of time. I went to a nearby autoparts store and bought a set of gasket materials and cut out my own in 15 minutes. Don’t buy the ALL PARTS p90 spacer kit. Or any of the others for that matter get a gasket kit and cut your own for $11, any height you want.
6. Quattlebaum Music Center
Address: 101 W Arch Ave, Searcy, AR 72143 , Alba , Arkansas , United States
You won’t find better people, and no one can beat their personable service
Great Store
The staff are friendly, the products seem pretty good, and it’s generally a good place to fulfill your guitar-based needs. They also sell things beyond guitars, like music books for brass, percussion, woodwind, and other string instruments, which would definitely be helpful to anyone looking to learn. From my experience, don’t be afraid to ask seemingly stupid questions; Quattlebaum is a safe place for a beginner to reveal their lack of knowledge.
Very friendly and helpful. Really nice place .
Small, quiet, local run music store. Good prices and owned by a knowledgeable friendly man who is happy to answer your questions. I’ll definitely be returning.
Very rude to my wife and all she did was ask a queston please don’t do business with these people we don’t need rude people in this town.
I’ve purchased things from here before, but today, I felt as though my business was not wanted. I took a violin in due to having issues tuning it and the bridge popping off. Was told what I need to do. Told them thank you and asked my daughter if she wanted to look around. Was told to have a nice day. Was not asked if I needed help with anything else. Employee just walked away
it’s alright. selling broken guitars for the pieces they’re asking is outrageous, though.
Great collection of guitars,, but it’s not really a museum. It’s a performance space built in an old theater. I did not have the pleasure of witnessing a performance, but I tried the sight lines of every seat and was highly impressed.
Enjoy the venue every event!
Worst experience with a music store ever! Lack of knowledge. Limited amount of guitar strings. Just terrible experience first and last time there!
Canceled concert and never got refund
10. Saied Music Co
Address: 2880 Point Cir, Fayetteville, AR 72704 , Alba , Arkansas , United States
I’ve bought two instruments for my daughter here. Quality instruments, fair prices, easy to do business with.
All the employees are super helpful and kind. They are willing to take the time to explain options and help you.
Good customer service
The repair guys are always fantastic!
Always very helpful. Some hard to find items too.
Do not let them store your debit card on file. I have an unauthorized charge on my account. ONLY PAY THEM THROUGH THE WEBSITE, NOT OVER THE PHONE.
Awful service. Bought strings for my guitar, and since im not very good at putting them on and they were the most expensive strings, i left my guitar for them to put the strings on for me bc they said theyd do it for free and that they would call me within a day or so. I waoted almsot a week and figured that i must have missed the call and went there to get my guitar. They hadnt even touched it and told me that it would be several more days before they could get to it. I just went ahead and took my guitar. Never getting my business again im just gonna go to guitar center.
When I got there I was excited to be buying a ukulele something I’ve been wanting since I was little and when I asked how much taxes were because $82 up from the $54 seemed outrageous the man said idk and didn’t even check it just took an extra $21 and when I was asking questions about other instruments he had. No information literally making me. Still waiting on the money to be back in my account had to go to bed hungry tonight
