They have lots of instruments there. Reasonable prices friendly staff
Can’t say enough about how knowledgeable and helpful Larry was!
Best knowledgeable music store around gv they will even let you hookup and play a toon to tryout equipment they offer lessons and have a friendly helpful staff looking to fitt your specific needs and interests
great spot, great people. a bit overwhelming but take a min and its easily appreciable
Great guitar lessons. Great deals, they price match guitar center too! My son got a gorgeous electric guitar for Christmas to upgrade from his child-sized Ibanez, and the customer service was great.
Absolutely terrible service. POOR selection of instrument strings (they never buy them) They’ve fired their most charismatic workers. The owner/”manager” will ignore you if she’s on the phone. Had an amp in there for six months that was more broken when I got it back, than when I brought it in, due to their “guitar tech” Steve. Worst music store in North California, if I could give zero stars I would.
Drove there on Sunday, as Google said they were open. They were not.
Owners are rude

Seeing Kenny’s students perform together, it’s clear that he has a solid program that works to bring out a diverse array of talents. Music lessons like this and the opportunity to perform are the sorts of things kids desperately need right now.
Quality lessons at an affordable rate. Call Kenny Steel and learn how to play ANYTHING… except a banjo 🙂 Great music teacher with skills across the board a

Best customer service! Ron is extremely knowledgeable and is very encouraging to me and my young musicians.
Awesome place for anybody who likes music. They are very cheap and friendly. I brought my guitar in because I needed a peg fixed and Ron fixed it for free and practically gave me a guitar lesson on top! Definitely recommend this place as the best in town.
Friendly service! My go to spot for guitar strings moving forward.
Great owner….great place…..excellent information….
I’ve known the owner for many years. I bought an amp and he beat the best on-line price for the same product. So happy to do business local like that.
Friendly and fast service

I just found THE BEST music shop yesterday! Pete is a wonderful guy and VERY kind, helpful, honest, and knowledgeable about all the countless facets of music, instruments, equipment, gear, whatever you need….he has found a loyal customer for life with me.
Thank you again Pete, for helping me get all fixed up to begin my new musical adventure to rediscover my love of playing the bass. I’ll definitely be back to see you for my upgrade.
Great and hed helpful employee’s, as well as a wide selection of equipment
Hands down the friendliest and best place for all instrument needs. Had lots of hard to find parts even tubes! and helps me keep buying local instead of parts from Amazon!!
Tiny little shop. Nice owner though. Didn’t get much more than a tuner. Can’t really judge more.
Real nice hometown music store
I previously gave Soundcheck a great review but now I am not so sure. Yes, they guys are great there. But watch out for their prices. I was in a hurry last week and needed some basic acoustic strings. They charged me over $16. for the set and I didn’t think twice. But when I got home I realized they really should have been a lot les.
The MSRP on those strings is $6.99 Same price online or at most of the other local guitar shops.
So they charged me well over double for the same strings. I really want to support local business…but I am done with Sondcheck.
