El duenos es muy amable , flexible y contesta tus preguntas!
Repaired daughter’s “starter” clarinet for us. Was fast, efficient, and thorough. When asked about getting her a more permanent instrument he was knowledgeable and personable. Did not try to over sell or push any big ticket items. Asked what her, amd our, goals are and then made recommendations based upon that information.
I am a professional musician. I had my Haynes handmade flute completely reburbished. It looks and plays like a dream. I also had my Gemeinhardt ALTO flute refurbished. All new pads, some fine tweaking, and it – too – exceeds my expectations. Dave is a gem – in the small city of Elberton.
3. Jackson’s Music Store Inc
Address: 1651 Horizon Pkwy #500, Buford, GA 30518 , Arcade , Georgia , United States
Great store!! Doug and Joey are great folks and very helpful.
I recently had my sons alto saxophone repaired through Jackson’s music store. The staff was super friendly and very helpful. The repair came back quickly and at a very good price I recommend them to anyone in need of service or equipment. Fantastic staff and thanks again!!!
Very friendly staff. They make you understand about the different instruments if you have no knowledge about it.
Great shop for band instruments as well as player instruments.
Good selection of accessories
Staff is nice, small selection tho. Mostly beginner instruments and school band instruments.
We just went to this place to rent a student flute for my daughter’s first year in band. My first red flag should have been that they told me they, “weren’t sure” if they would rent an instrument for fifth grade. It kinda rubbed me the wrong way. Mind you- the only reason we went to the store in the first place is because the school gave us a flyer advertising their rental options. We sat and waited for them to “process and pull” the rental and print my rental agreement. A different person than I initially spoke with came out and told me that they could not approve me for the rental. I’d say that their standards are pretty stringent. I have a great salary job on my application. I can get approval for a credit card, a car note, but not a student flute? They collect your card and account info. How high risk can it be considering that they can withdraw my 30 bucks every month? I told the man “You know what? That’s ok, I can have my mom come up here and do it, she has great credit.” He then proceeded to tell me that he will not allow grandparents the rent instruments, only parents. Uh…What?? What difference does it make? What about the kids whose guardian is not their parent? It’s just a bit much for a 30 dollar a month commitment and a 400 dollar instrument. He told me of their rent to purchase option. You end up paying 850 bucks for an instrument that retails half of that and pay more than the instrument is actually worth in a down payment. No thanks. He also offered to sell us one for 250. For a first year music student who may end up not liking band? I think not. We took our business to New School of Music 5 minutes down the road and it was quick, easy, and actually more affordable. My husband is always in the market for another guitar (purchase not rent) and we will be getting guitar lessons for my middle child. We definitely not be purchasing any of our instruments or lessons from Jackson’s.
We have appreciated Jackson music for years, Joey the owner is very nice. I could not get my Mic to get sound out of it so the employee was helping me out Saturday,, he said try these cables and let’s see what happens,, it did not work because the problem was in my floor sound box,, gain was turned down. , I brought back my cables on Monday and different employee said it looks like you probably used them all weekend and now bringing them back? I said no that’s not the issue, he’s giving me Grief on $20 cables for 20 minutes,, wants restocking fee lol, I said to him this is bs, than he said he not going to refund me because I’m cursing him , I was no way shape or form cursing him,, he took $5 out for restocking fee,, pathetic
I had been going in the store for music lessons for boys and now it is on the way home from work.. I paid almost $60 for a microphone and a piece that connects it to the speaker. I like support mom and pop shops. The microphone did not work. When I tried to switch it with the same sales person I bought it from 3days before. He remember me and accuse me of damaging it and lying about it. He pulled it up and it did not work. Instead of apologizing he said if the new one broke I could not bring it back. I told he did not need to worry because I would not be back to that store. I went to speak to the owner and she ask him to apologize which he could not do and I told her it was okay and not necessary because I would not be back. I guess next time I will order it off online and pay 1/3 the price and not get such horrible treatment.
4. All Star Music Center
Address: 3981 Athens Hwy, Loganville, GA 30052 , Arcade , Georgia , United States
Love All star Music Center. The owner is very helpful, very nice and most importantly honest!
Really cool place. Very knowledgeable!
John was insanely fast at giving my guitar a setup, and the price was very reasonable. He’s a cool dude, and I look forward to going here for all my guitar needs for the foreseeable future.
Great plce.Friendly staff.
Very friendly place, with knowledgeable people, but the used gear is over priced. Perhaps they like their equipment and instruments like their wine: aged, dry, and of course with heavy wear and tear. They offer a number of new products as well, lessons, and great repair jobs!
Guy running the store was very helpful and knowlegable.
Literally 4:08pm on a Saturday I show up. They were not open. Sign on the door says 10am-6pm. Very disappointed.
I’ve been here 3 times during store hours. nobody at the store go to another shop.
Place needs to just close! doubt me, go see what I’m talking about.
5. Music Go Round – Atlanta/Duluth, GA
Address: 3675 Satellite Blvd # 100, Duluth, GA 30096 , Arcade , Georgia , United States
Go see Paulie and the rest of the staff at MGR – Duluth. I brought in a bunch of old stuff I no longer used and was treated so fairly I walked out with a bass that I had only dreamed of owning. Always a sale going on.
Very kind
Great service and great prices.
Great selection and great prices. Very helpful and friendly staff.
It’s a really awesome place I love that they mainly have used instruments
It’s wall to wall musical instruments. Some of the cymbals are of an era when I had my paper route and I was just beginning. Other than that…go to town for your heart’s desire.
Guitar Center offers more for your used gear
I’m sure this will be looked at as the “just a bad experience review” but I’ll just lay it out and let you decide.
Monday – Brought my bass in to be setup. Waited about 2 and a half hours to be told that they don’t do setups in house. I was also told it would take at least a day.
Tuesday – called in in the afternoon and it still wasn’t picked up.
Wednesday – had a gig Wednesday night. Called at 1. Asked if my bass was picked up. I was told it wasn’t yet. I responded sayibng that I needed my bass for gig. Do not send it off. I show up at the store at 7pm that night to pick up my bass. The store clerks tell me that my bass was already picked… At 12 and whoever was wrong. The clerk tried to call the guy who does their setups and it went straight to voicemail. He told me that he could rush the setup and could have it back early Thursday. I decided to just to borrow my guitarist’s bass and pick up my bass Thursday.
Thursday – I show up to the shop at 7pm. My bass is behind the front desk waiting for me. I tell the clerk that I’m here to pick the bass up. He hands me the bass and tells me that i denied service so nothing was done with it. I left the shop with my bass in hand and never stepping foot in that shop again. I’m also sending my students elsewhere.
Update: my bass is chipped…
The drive threw took 20 minutes so many cars in line to order inside was closed. They need more help inside so people want have to wait so long on the order.
6. Town Center Music
Address: 4072 Suwanee Dam Rd NW, Suwanee, GA 30024 , Arcade , Georgia , United States
Coolest music store around!! Dozens and dozens of the latest and greatest effects pedals and noise makers. Super friendly staff that really knows their stuff. Just had my guitar worked on by their tech and I couldn’t be happier with his work! TCM is THE place to go for all local musicians.
I really regret that I didn’t know about them until now. If I had known earlier, I would have bought Musical Instruments from them to support local businesses. They are really willing to help me .I will come next time for my kids instrument, also I know they have music lessons.
I’ve been shopping at Town Center Music for years and it’s always been an amazing experience! The owner, Aaron, is incredibly friendly and the staff has always been very helpful in finding what’s right for me. They have helped me with guitars, pedals, and everything in between.
Also, the repair team is second to none. I don’t trust anyone else to work on my guitars!
Taught my kids to play guitar
Good
Much better store I not been here in a while the past manager was not a music guy or a manger known as a air head I will be back
Wow. Just called Town Center Music. Someone answered. I started asking about a guitar I’m looking for and got cut off mid-sentence by the guy talking loudly to a co-worker. When he stopped talking I said hello? Hello? Nothing. A few seconds later he hangs up.
Went in there a couple days ago. Not a huge fan. Workers aren’t very pleasant people and they come up to you every 10 minutes kind of giving you the hint to leave if you’re not gonna buy anything like you’re in there too long.
Great for beginners I guess. Don’t come in here expecting higher quality equipment and experience. Name of their game is to hook beginners onto cheap equipment (which is totally fine) and get you out. No hanging out in there jamming for an extended time.
Maybe I came in on a bad day.
Took down my review. Owner ultimately seemed to care about his customers. Too bad everything is so politically incorrect. Anyone still remember Archie Bunker?
But to clarify what idiot would try to exchange something opened, like a reed.
Amazon prime still winnnning.
7. Ponce De Leon Music Center
Address: 1060 Dahlonega Hwy, Cumming, GA 30040 , Arcade , Georgia , United States
Friendly staff. I had an old guitar cleaned up, new strings and more. Very responsible pricing. Highly recommended.
This is our family music shop. They either have what you’re looking for, or they provide any service you may need. Weather you need lessons, or a tune up on your electric guitar. It really is a music lovers one stop shop! Family business too!
Friendly staff with a great selection of musical instruments. Different than other musical stores I’ve been to and had a welcoming family feel to it.
Very knowledgeable, always helpful.
Very friendly staff!
Good place for lessons and instrument maintenance. I have had them work on my guitars several times with no complaints. This last time they replaced strings and I was in a hurry and just paid and left. Getting some fret buzz from 5th and 6th strings that I would have noticed had I checked it out before leaving. My bad. Overall they are great people and do great work!
Had to make a quick stop to grab a few things. I know it was closing time. I was trying to make it quick. When they started harassing my husband reminding him when they close he left and we took our business somewhere else. Customers want to feel welcomed, not reminded how unfortunate you are to have to lock the door right at 5:00.
The customer service is awful I definitely won’t be back there every again
8. Atlanta Musicians Exchange
Address: 2619 Lawrenceville Hwy, Decatur, GA 30033 , Arcade , Georgia , United States
They were very friendly and patient and helped me find what I was looking for.
Very friendly and helpful staff.
I have an antique Japanese shamisen (looks like a skinny banjo) that needed refurbishing — new skins, new strings, tightening of joints, etc. I brought it to Mike at Atlanta Musicians Exchange, and he found a specialist to work on it. The results were amazing! The piece is now beautiful again, and I will display it proudly. Happy to recommend this shop for repairs of even exotic instruments!
The repair shop sucks
Horrible Customer service and NOT HELPFUL!! Instead of helping we with appropriate prices for my gear, I was ridiculed by the prices I thought might be appropriate. A ‘good luck with selling your stuff at those prices’ is all I got. I don’t appreciate the attitude and lack of consideration. All they could have said was ‘those prices are higher than market currently…have you thought of selling them for $$$$?’. Unfortunately the response I got causes me to NEVER want to shop at this place. Sellers BEWARE.
The photo of the wall of guitars is pretty much their entire stock. I’ve seen low-end pawn shops that are less cluttered.
9. Jennings Music & Education Center
Address: 3595 Canton Rd Suite 308, Marietta, GA 30066 , Arcade , Georgia , United States
This place is a great little music shop. Friendly staff and a wide selection make it a must for locals, and passersby alike.
Great store! The husband and the wife are beautiful people and very helpful! Thanks for being so nice.
This business cares about customers, music, and kindness. I have experienced many examples of good service and I highly recommend them!
Edit: I was called the day of this review and my issues resolved within the week. I have never received such a quick response to a complaint and it counts for a lot in my mind. I can tell that their reputation and customer satisfaction is important. I’m going to give them the benefit of the doubt regarding my previous experiences and change my review. I’m not sure why the ball was dropped previously but they made sure to fix the problem and apologize. Everyone makes mistakes but their willingness to take responsibility and handle the situation was refreshing.
BEWARE BEWARE BEWARE!!! I signed up for a lease to own plan for a bass at this store. The plan is supposed to include repairs and a size upgrade because my son is 13 and still growing. About 8 months into the plan the bridge was broken on the bass (a simple fix) and I was told to expect 3 weeks for repairs. 3 weeks turned into several months. I had to start going in person everyday and basically harassing the staff to give him his bass. They never gave him his bass back. They gave him a very beat up bass and told me not to worry about the appearance as he would not keep this bass and would have one in better condition once the contract was up as the size would be upgraded. However, once I took the bass home to my son he informed me that this bass was smaller than the original one he was given and so he couldn’t practice at all. I informed the store of this in August, it is now January. The store is completely unresponsive and unless I start harassing them again, they’ll leave me with a product I can’t use but still charge me monthly for it.
Nice store. Very friendly and helpful. If I ever consider leasons for anything, I’d definitely consider them.
The people there are very friendly, courteous
These people were extremely rude and impatient this evening. I was trying to reach a salesman that left another store. I need a cello but I will not buy from these people. Instead of trying to sell me something they simply hung up in my face. I called right back thinking it was a mistake and they were not kind. They lack good communication skills and have no customer service skills at all. I was expecting them to say, “… the person you are looking for does not work here but we would love to assist you with a purchase”.
Way over priced !!!!! My son in high school needed a mouth piece for his instrument. Jennings wanted to charge almost $70. You can get them for $20 in Kennesaw and YES they are acceptable and standard in the class room. Wow! I am so tired of this area trying to over charge.
10. Righteous Guitars
Address: 1455 Hembree Rd, Roswell, GA 30076 , Arcade , Georgia , United States
Alex was very helpful. I appreciate all of their knowledge, perspectives, and the lifetime warranty.
Super nice people! Lots of fun stuff to look at.
I purchased acoustic guitar strings thru their website and Ben helped me out with the purchase. Very easy to deal with, excellent communication skills, fast response via email and very accommodating when I spoke to him on the phone.
Very fast shipping as well! Excellent customer service and satisfaction in my experience with these guys.
Prices are a little high, outstanding selection of guitars. Very knowledgeable and polite staff.
This is a beautiful store with a magnificent display of guitars. I was never ask if I would like to play one through an amp.
The salesman at Guitar Center did ask if I would like to go into a private room and try out a few guitars.
I love my new PRS from Guitar Center.
I took two of my guitars to be setup. They did an amazing job. My strat was virtually unusable beforehand. They made some adjustments to the pickups and it’s like a whole new instrument. All my guitars will be going to them from now on. I’ve tried several luthiers in the area, they’ve done the best job.
Nice place. A lot of over priced guitars.The service was condescending and rude. The owner Jeff Gans was very patronizing. Me and my friend wanted to play two guitars together and we were told there is only one guitar chord. More than 200 guitars and only one guitar chord, interesting. I believe I received such terrible service because they did not believe me to be capable of purchasing a guitar. So if you don’t drive up in a BMW and flash a Rolex don’t expect receive service. I think I’ll spend my paycheck elsewhere.
Went in yesterday and had a terrible experience. I have purchased high end guitars all over the country and never experienced such rude and condescending people. Don’t waste your time going there.
So, I brought my project guitar to Ruth Guitars that I’ve been holding onto for years. I asked him to build it how he would like it. Oops! Turned out way better than I had ever thought! He was able to install the neck, wire in a crazy cool pick up, added strings and locking bar for the tuners. Superb work! I’ve played several of his guitars and they all have great action and are super comfortable! Highly recommended!
Chris at Ruth Guitars is pretty much the only person I trust w my gtrs. I play over 200 shows a year, and trust Chris w all my electronic work, set ups, he’s even lent me a couple custom made LG Series guitars for high profile gigs. His custom builds come standard w superior hardware including premium handwired pickups. From repairs to tone-shaping and beyond, Chris at Ruth Guitars always goes above expectations and over-delivers a product that is eye-catching, fun to play, sounds impossibly good, custom made to your specs, and affordable. Call him TODAY for any repair or maintenance, its getting cold out! You’ll want to get your hands on one of his numerous custom builds (If you can get it off his wall long enough I recommend the black LG model) and start spec’ing YOUR handmade custom model. Pictured below is the TC model w literally too many tonal options to list here. Your tonal palette is only limited by your own imagination. Chris can bring your dream sound to your hands! I wish I could give more than 5-stars!
12. Guitar Center
Address: 2480 Briarcliff Rd NE Suite 13, Atlanta, GA 30329 , Arcade , Georgia , United States
Always a pleasure to shop at Guitar Center. Great selection of instruments and friendly staff!
Got some awesome help from John in the guitar department. Musicians taking care of musicians is the best
GOOD SERVICE
Had a list of 12 things I needed. All run of the mill stuff. They had one thing in stock in store. Not worth the awful drive to the awful location.
Good service
Buen servicio, atención amable.
I drove 2 hours roundtrip to pickup a guitar that they didn’t have or an employee snatched it. The guitar was on the website as available however, mysteriously it sold overnight over the internet.
The Store Manger and other employees we’re totally unconcerned offered no apologies.
I was told of all things to contact IT regarding the lag time between internet sales and updating the system as far as in store availability. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? IF IT’S ON YOUR WEBSITE YOU SHOULD HAVE IT, END OF STORY!
I guess I’m supposed to believe that with all of today’s technology that Guitar Center can’t figure out how to remove a item from inventory once someone buts a item over the web, yeah good luck with that one!
No wonder all of your stores in the surrounding areas are CLOSING!
NEVER EVER,EVER SPEND ANOTHER DIME IN YOUR STORES!
Crazy ppl..hold me for 45mins then said come back tomorrow…really!!!!@@
Is it any wonder retail stores are going under? Went here to purchase a $1000 keyboard and looked around for a good 15 minutes and nobody offered to help (with many salespeople literally standing around.) Finally go up to one for help “oh, so and so can help you in a few minutes.” I’ll just buy it online from Sweetwater, which is what I should have done in the first place.
13. Music & Arts
Address: 119 Cobb Pkwy N, Marietta, GA 30062 , Arcade , Georgia , United States
Enjoy shopping at ken Stanton today found everything I needed always do it thank you very much
Great store! Largest selection and nicest staff in Atlanta.
Good people
Recently started teaching myself guitar, after over 30 years owning one and never learning. My guitar needed new strings and they explained how to install them. Didn’t try to sell me anything else, although I’m sure they would’ve been more than happy to. Recently went into a Guitar Center and got horrible service; false advertising issue. I will return to Ken Stanton Music whenever necessary.
They always have the right drumsticks and reeds.
Ordered a guitar in 7/22. Got it on 8/5. Great guitar, customer service not so good.
Great customer service
my favorite store to go to for guitar things but i guess they don’t actually need new employees like their sign says … submitted multiple applications and called/visited to ask about it numerous times and they always say they’ll check up on it and it goes no further. it would be nice if they would at least let me know that they’re not interested instead of me calling visiting and sending more applications for no reason.
They had posted an incorrect used guitar model for sale at the wrong price and at the wrong location, then said it had sold the day before from their other store but they did not remove it from their web site. I drove 1/2 hr one way to purchase it because it was active on their web site.
14. Big House Guitars
Address: 2323 Cheshire Bridge Rd NE, Atlanta, GA 30324 , Arcade , Georgia , United States
I’ve learned about this store from a record group that I belong to. I live in another State, and from the beginning they were very responsive, got my records reserved, easy and smooth pay. Most important, great customer support, attention, second to none. Very, very honest. Highly praised and recommended
Super friendly and knowledgeable staff, awesome collection of guitars and sweet records. Will definitely be back
Had an emergency guitar repair that needed to happen fast, they took great care of me, quick turnaround, friendly staff, and a great selection of gear!
Friendly and professional. Offer a fair price and paid promptly
The staff was very friendly and very attentive. All the gear seems to be in great condition, but overall the prices are a too high for this musician’s budget. Watch out for that undisclosed “checkout fee” 😉
Beautiful collection of guitars on sale and consignment, plus a pretty decent record shop!
Went to Big House for son’s 24th birthday present: his first ever guitar. Unfortunately this is not the place for that. If you’re not an experienced guitarist, expect to get dropped like a hot potato.
I don’t like writing negative reviews and try to work it out in good faith before. I spent a LARGE sum of money on instruments at Big House Guitars and got burnt. Upon the inspection I (luckily!!) requested, the $$$$$ vintage Les Paul turned out not to be true to representation (only 1 PAF pickup instead of two … oops, sorry for the mix up!). I still decided to proceed and worked out a deal including several trade in instruments. They simply didn’t honor it: I received one guitar with cracks, which they half-assedly tried to pin on UPS before telling me it was like that when I tried it… Nice! They never took my guitars agreed as trade-ins, leaving me on the hook for selling them… I called Russ the store owner many times, who ghosted me, leaving me to receiv lip service by email from the crew. VERY disappointed. It’s a cool shop and the guys seem friendly. But sadly, I wouldn’t buy anything ever again from them. BUYER BEWARE.
The owner of this business scams customers online making false claims regarding the authenticity and value of his Guitars. Have a luthier you trust look over your next axe from this con-artist.
15. Attina’s Music Store Inc
Address: 155 Jonesboro Rd, McDonough, GA 30253 , Arcade , Georgia , United States
Tuned daughters clarinet several times, they do outstanding qork
Russ knowledge and expertise helped my students’ parent decide on what flute to purchase. What a great day!
Very helpful
Friendly service .
Quick and efficient service! I called to confirm that had an item in stock, and they did. When I arrived, they had the item at the register, I paid, and left. Perfect! I was there all of 5 minutes!
Kind, thorough, customer service!
They were friendly, but we kinda felt they were stand offish because my husband was asking all kinds of questions and we kinda felt that they was tired of being asked the many questions that my husband asked. They had a low selection of items and we felt that we was being pushed out of the store because he asked us a few times if we was ready to check out. So after a few times of being asked we checked out and left. Not sure if we will be going back or if we will make the hour trip to Fayetteville for all of our needs.
16. Ken Stanton Music
Address: 3636 Dallas Hwy SW, Marietta, GA 30064 , Arcade , Georgia , United States
As someone who loves music performance, I feel lucky to have such a place within driving distance. I have given this particular location so much money, it’s not funny, since my son is in middle school band. The staff here are friendly and all of them seem to play some type of instrument, so they can give you that much more insight on whatever you’re looking for.
The sales team was very friendly, helpful, and very knowledgeable regarding recommendations for the specific items that I needed to purchase for my children’s instruments. I highly recommend Ken Stanton Music.
Clean bathrooms!
Smaller than the one on Cobb parkway. Friendly staff. No complaints. Just a pretty limited selection.
Wasn’t able to be in this store for 5 minutes trying to find my 4 year old an instrument to learn without two of the employees hounding him to not touch anything. As a professional musician trust me I have my son trained to be careful around expensive instruments. I also picked up a guitar to play and think about purchasing it but the guy told me they are supposed to bring it down and hand it to me, I said I know how to handle a guitar and he says “not a $1,300 guitar” I’ll take my business elsewhere.
Staff is helpful to get the sale but be careful… Merchandise is expensive and there’s no returns because of Covid. They don’t tell you about that detail before you spend your money!
I find it hard to believe a store would go out of their way to lose a potential sale. I live in Carrollton Georgia so I don’t get out there much and I asked to exchange an un-used microphone I purchased from them (over 90 days ago) for another item. They told me no. That’s basically it. Who says that to a potential customer? I know your starving for business but ok I’ll purchase elsewhere from now on. I like companies that are interested in my business. I recommend Willcutt guitars
17. Paulding Music Center
Address: 10175 Dallas Acworth Hwy # 121, Dallas, GA 30132 , Arcade , Georgia , United States
I love this place from the staff to the equipment its an amazing store i take Guitair lessons there and my teacher has really helped me alot both with playing and feeling confident in playing and the staff have helped me find a guitar that i want and love twice now . Its a great spot I highly recommend it for any music lover.
Great owner named John Walsh. Very helpful and music instructors are the best
Great place to get anything musical. They have a good selection of band instruments and guitars. The people here are super nice and ready to help you with anything you need.
Great customer service and good and understanding staff
Poor teaching, and don’t miss a lesson without notice, they will not understand and will continue to take your money.
I’ve been shopping here for over a decade. This is the first time I have EVER had to make a return was today. I was told there was a 7 day return policy. NO WHERE on the receipt does it indicate a 7 day policy. Very disappointed that the owner John (after all these years being of being a loyal customer) argue with me over this return.
Do not shop here, don’t bother asking for shipping either they won’t do it. They make Facebook listings than ignore customers after denying purchase.
18. Firehouse Guitars & Music
Address: 612 Medlock Rd, Decatur, GA 30033 , Arcade , Georgia , United States
I called to get information about Guitar Lesson
Pete was so helpful signed up for Saturday classes
And the prices are reasonable ❤️
Great store based on excellent service. Took my acoustic guitar in to get the nut on the neck replaced. They not only replaced it but also made the guitar sounds better than it did when it was purchased! Support your local music shop!
Awesome customer service! If you live in or around Decatur you should visit. I got such a great deal I drove over an hour one way to do purchase it. I was in communication with them for multiple days and they helped me pick out exactly what I needed. I look forward to doing business with them again in the future.
This is a pretty good little store. I bought my guitar and amp here
Rip off.go elsewhere. I use to really like bringing my daughter here but they must be under new management. Prices have gotten ridiculous!!!
19. Atlanta Discount Music
Address: 3514 Chamblee Dunwoody Rd, Chamblee, GA 30341 , Arcade , Georgia , United States
FAN TAS TIC music shop! Exactly how a music shop should be , walls lined with instruments and friendly knowledgeable staff that Insist you play the instruments. Talked with several of the staff about different effects pedals and accessories for them I was looking for. Went in for a effect pedal and ended up Putting money down on a guitar… These guys literally have guitars I’ve never seen in my hometown in 30 years ! They’ve got no problem with letting you try instruments with different amp and pedal combinations and are extremely happy to accommodate you to do so. Wide variety of instruments from Gretcsch , Fender , Ibanez , vintage Tiescos from Japan , Schecter you name it! This place was a pleasure and I look forward to visiting it when I’m in town!
Amazing equipment, Great place to buy a used guitar.
Excellent set ups / fret work. Best experience I’ve had in Atlanta
Really good instruments and place to replace strings for guitars
Ok people
Great place to hang out and try out some cool stuff. Staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. Pretty cool guys.
They weren’t very friendly or helpful with what I was looking for. Their prices are actually higher than most other places I’ve been in. My advice would be to shop for your musical items somewhere else.
Don’t drop your amp here for repair. Paid close to $200 and when I got home, the amp still didn’t work. Total rip-off
Bought a mic cord there a few months back , tried to return it but they said it wasn’t theirs, no receipt,
I know it came from Atlanta Discount, the guy acted like I was some kind of criminal,
I’m 59 years old, been playing for 50 years, don’t need the disrespect man, no wonder Guitar Center is kicking their ass
20. Dirt Cheep Pro Audio & Musical Instruments
Address: 2415 S Cobb Dr SE, Smyrna, GA 30080 , Arcade , Georgia , United States
There is no feeling like finding something you are looking for locally. I stepped in to purchase an interface. I wasn’t completely sure if Dirt Cheep would have it. The gentleman reached behind him and I snagged the last one. I could have gone to a big box store but I’d rather keep my dollars local and support my community. Excellent place, great knowledge and service.
If you need a recorder for your kids school Dirt Cheap is the place to go get them
Simply amazing customer service and just one of the best music stores I’ve ever been to!!!!!
Always find what you need and more…Steve is awesome exceed expectations
Slow service
Really well known place for musicians and p
Pros. Good customer service and great deals.
I was not pleased with their return policy. Just make sure that whatever you get there, you never plan to return it. They left a very bad feeling.
They charged me a 10% restocking fee for an M-Audio USB interface that had flaky drivers for Windows 7 64-bit. When I told them about this problem one of the guys asked if I was running SP1 or SP2 for Windows 7. When I told him no service packs are out for Windows 7 he looked it up right in front of me and had the audacity to say that M-Audio had drivers for Win 7 SP2. This guy was totally clueless. So I got charged $36 because M-Audio had bad drivers. I won’t be going back.
Terrible quality even for the low price, employees work for commission, talk you into buying things you don’t need. I bought a viola there, and it was good since I had just begun. Two years later the thing sucks.
