Aptos: Overview of the top 2 music shops

Friendly place with a nice selection of instruments, amps and related gear.

Expert advice and amazing guitar repair.

Great shop! Jody is very knowledgeable and willing to help. I bought a guitar there and took it in a couple months later because the action was high, he adjusted it on the spot and didn’t charge me. I highly recommend supporting this shop. You won’t get the kind of customer service and appreciation everywhere.

Good service but not much variety.

I take voice lessons here. Expect a bit of bleed from one practice room to the next. Nice display of instruments. Very friendly & knowledgeable proprietor.

Very competent. Your instruments are safe in their hands, but like many of the music shops around here they aren’t super responsive. If you can get in when they’re open they’re great.

Unfriendly customer service. wouldn’t let me try a amplifier, and told me if that if I had the $1500 then he would let me try it. I have never experienced this at any guitar store. I have shopped here in the past and it has always been a mediocre experience. the man who works behind the counter always has a mopey attitude and their products are usually priced over normal retail. Spend your money somewhere else (Sylvan Music, Midtown Guitar Company).
