Top-10 of music shops in Artesia

Yes . I liked it .

i had came here to buy some jewelry for my cousin’s wedding. The best part was the jewelry i was trying on was so lightweight and i was looking for something exactly like that because my ear start hurting when i wear heavy earring but there earring were so light and looks amazing with my outfit.. and it’s not only jewelry they sell here there is soo many other stuff they sell like bangles,stuff for ur home ,etc i’m in love with everything they have and would definitely be coming back

nice store

Very wide selection for Indian music and DVD movies

Good price and enjoy walking and shopping.

I went here specifically for mens mojaris. First I went to the store next to the jewelry store and the helpful lady told me to go around the corner to the main store by the same name. The Aunty there was very helpful and nice. I ended up buying a pair from each store. The lady in the first store said she couldn’t lower the price and charged me 35$. The man in the next store (probably the owner) punched in the number and then I asked if he could do 30$ but he just showed me the register which read 38.49$. One of the pairs is clearly worn (which I found out when I got home). He charged me tax for goodness sake and didn’t even give a receipt. I mean come one act somewhat pleasant and thankful that a customer is buying from you. After walking back and forth between each shop they could’ve easily given me 10$ off but chose not to. Nor did they pull any pieces out from their back stock to show me. Basically made me do all the work.

Beware of this place.
I bought audio CD, which was wrapped in plastic like original CD but when I went home and opened it , there was no CD inside the pack.
I went and told them, they denied to even look into it..
They are pure cheater and selling pirated CDs and DVDs

I came here to gift my boyfriend some stuff for Diwali. Little did the owner know I speak and understand Hindi… he let the guy in front of me get a discount and then it came to me he laughed and said no discount in Hindi … I came back to try and return but he gave me $3 as a discount instead. What horrible service. I told my boyfriend and he said they definitely took advantage of you thinking your white and won’t understand Hindi…

Very expensive! Not a good service!

Bought a Gibson SG.. love it!

I love this place I took my boyfriend their for his birthday to surprise him.

Guitar Center is a little less personal now but back in the day you would walk in or call to see if “your salesman” was in or make and appointment to see him or her. Many times when talking to “your salesman” you could negotiate a price much like buying furniture. It is to bad that those days are gone. I do like GC and hope that they get some nice Sales People in there, I’m vintage so I’ve already had it and actually sold a hollow body guitar to a guy at Christmas time he was so impressed on the tone it had compared to a semi-hollow body. I had someone at the counter ring him up!

This place has really cut back on it’s inventory. You have to order something now and wait it come in.

Brought the kids to see what would really grab their attention. Drums for both, of course! My son gravitated to the guitars…ok now, we’re getting somewhere now….daughter seemed to stick to the keys. Fam band, anyone?

The staff is not very friendly.

The customer service was terrible. Only one person was professional. I didn’t get his name. But he was very helpful. The rest sucked including the so called store manager.

Disappointed, went there hoping to get the end jack of a pickup soldered on but the person there gave me nothing but excuses on why he could not do it… just soldered it on dude, forget about “what is it for?”, “I’ll need to see the instrument”, and “there is a lot of factors to consider” BS.. if I’m asking to soldered it JUST SOLDER IT!

A bunch kids, ,manager is no help at all I will never go there again

I’ve been studying with Anthony for years now and he went from me not knowing anything to now knowing how to play full songs and enjoying the learning process!

Been with Anthony for years and I can say so confidently that if you’re looking for a great value and great quality instrument lessons then check out Thurmond music! Bc of these lessons Ive not only excelled but enjoyed music in and out of school, so I greatly recommend this place!!

Good. Fast check out renting a flute. But requires a couple id’s and 3mo prepaid for the rental.

Great mom & pop shop.

Staff Always ready to help

Small place packed with a lot of instruments. For school, you don’t go to places like Guitar Center…but you come to places like this.

Great customer service!

I visited on 8-31-2022 this corner shop has a ton of instruments new and used some might even be antiques! So cool! Staff was nice and helpful as well!

THIS PLACE IS WRONG I DROVE OVER 50 MILES TO PURCHASE A LESLIE SPEAKER FROM THEM,BUT THEY HAD IT PUT UP SOMEWHERE IN THEIR CLASS ROOM, WHERE YOU CAN’T GET TO IT! THEN THEY SAID THAT THE LESLIE I WANTED TO BUY, COMES WITH A HAMMOND ORGAN BUT THEIR ADVERTISING ON THEIR WEBSITE DIDN’T SAY THAT!!! I’M SO HURT WITH THIS TYPE OF TREATMENT I’LL NEVER COME BACK HERE AGAIN!!!

They are nice until there is something wrong .
My situation is even too long to write I’m very disappointed with their lack of customer service after being a customer for 1 1/2 years.
They said I needed a piston replaced after their rude service we decided to take our business else where. The other music store said the instrument was dirty and cleaned the oil and told us the piston was not even damaged as Bellflower said.BEWARE NORTHPARK ACADEMY OF THE ARTS ..PARENTS GO SOMEWHERE ELSE

I rented a pretty old tenor sax from Bellflower Music back in August for my daughter, who started on a HS marching band. I signed an agreement, purchased insurance and pre-paid for 3 months. Yesterday, I went to return the sax as the director of music and the sectional leader all complained about the sax that is out of tune and the buttons are not working. In my defense I didnt want to purchase an instrument right of the bet because I wanted to see if my daughter continues to show interest and if she is committed to marching band. As the rental was coming to an expiration on the 19th of October it was time to return the instrument back to Bellflower and purchase a good working sax. We found an excellent but used Chateau at Long Beach Woodwinds and they helped us there compare between different saxes by trying them out. The feel, the tone, the buttons…no comparison to the Conn we rented from Bellflower. I understand you rent out instruments to many people, but take the time to make adjustments and test them before renting them out. I was surprised that no testing was done when we rented the sax but when I returned it yesterday they were testing everything. No comments were done on the contract when we rented the sax in regards to the condition but they put replacement cost for the sax equal to a brand new one. In addition, they now wanted me to return a strap that they never gave us. The guy insisted the sax had a strap but we neither got one, neither the accessories issued were noted on the contract. However, he told me I can come back another day and discuss with the manager. There was no way I was going to drive 1 hour round trip to discuss a missing strap and get charged for another month of rental. He refused to accept the rental back without me paying for a strap. I saw the bin with the straps and it says $5 for a generic strap I said here let me pay you for a strap and get out. He pulls a brand new Yamaha strap and demands I pay for a brand new branded strap. Let me reephasize… no strap was given to us, it is an used instrument…heavily used…with no list detailing accessories on the contract, with an insurance purchased for missing and broken parts…and now I was expected to pay for a brand new Yamaha strap, not the generic kind. I told him I am not paying for a brand new Yamaha strap to which he again said he wont take the rental back. He ended up giving me a discount on the Yamaha strap so we can close out the issue. Bottom line for me, as far as their instrument rental services go, is do not rent from Bellflower. Go to a place that lets you test the instruments, provides a guidance on what you need, especially as a beginner, and do not give you some super old untested instrument and then demand you pay for an accessory that they never gave you. I am not for $5 but for the whole service which seems to be concentrated on renting out malfunctioning and not tested instruments and then skimming more money by trying to say something is missing or broken. The guy was testing the instrument for so long trying to find something but as soon as I mentioned that we have insurance I kid you not he said “no, everyting is fine”. Thank God I purchased that insurance. I am so confident if I didnt he would have found millions of things wrong with the instrument, an old, beat up and u tested instrument….

Went shopping for a violin here. Very helpful and accommodating staff. Very nice people. They had a very nice selection. Not just in violins but in all other musical products too. I didn’t end up taking a violin home with me but I’d be sure to recommend checking this place out to others.

They have anything and everything when it comes to instruments! The place to be

Great selection of orchestral instruments and related doo dad and we got terrific help by the staff.

Good service.
Knowledgeable.

I don’t know much about this place because I just visited it once while I was in town for a meeting. What I saw was very impressive. While fairly small in size, it contains an extensive selection of (mostly) orchestral instruments. There are separate showrooms for each group of instruments and it appears that they encourage serious customers to audition the pieces in a calm setting. The back of the store contains a large repair shop that is glassed in so that you can observe the technicians. Normally, I do not include this sort of thing in my reviews, but I must make an exception by mentioning that one of the sales personnel is a tall, absolutely gorgeous young woman with long light brown hair and sparkling eyes. She is simply too beautiful to avoid taking note. By the way, they did not have the accessory I was looking for, but they made a good recommendation to another store. If you are looking for a personal shopping experience, this family-owned shop is highly recommended.

Great place. If you love Music this is your place.

They didn’t everything wrong. Intonation was wrong and set up was inferior. They put the right strings on which is basically all that was right. Took longer than they promised and didn’t bother letting me know it was done.

I don’t know what to say about this place but it’s been one of the worst places I’ve ever been to and the prices are very high plus they treat you very rude

I will never shop there again. This morning 12/26/18, I went to the store hoping to buy a new cello case. I entered the store and walked to the back of the store to look around. Not one worker even tried to assist me. After looking at the cello cases, I walked toward the front of the store to look at different violin/cello method books because I play and teach both instruments. During that time, a few customers walked in and the workers quickly greeted and assisted them. This is about the third time this has happened to me. I will never shop there or refer any of my students to shop there. I will just have to purchase their supplies elsewhere and have my students purchase the products from me. I will also go online and purchase my cello case elsewhere. That’s too bad because they really do ha e nice, quality products.

I found everything I needed. Thank you for the best service.

It’s amazing place and cool guys work there

The best Smoke Shop I’ve ever visited. Finally, I found a smoke shop where I can find everything. talking about the interior is redundant: the atmosphere is the coolest.

It’s the nicest looking smoke shop I’ve been to in a while. They also have a great selection of items

Stopped by to grab some papers and wanted to go to the Indian grocery first. They assumed I wasn’t going to shop here and made me move my car. I would understand their concern if it was busy, but the parking lot was practically empty. Maybe management should lighten up.

They don’t answer the phone. Why provide a form of contact.

The staff is very helpful and knowledgeable. The store caters to all ages. This branch also offers lessons which is very convenient for beginner musicians -strings/ percussion. Parking is a little cumbersome but it’s available and workable. Overall, my experience was great. Will return anytime to fill my guitar’s needs and more….

Ordered electronic drums online and picked them up in 30 minutes.

The female associate was very informative.

Best around for sound

The staff knows what they are recommending and suggesting . I recently bought an acoustic guitar and I’m glad they helped me choose what I need and what fits me as a lady.

Great prices and selection but not a lot of customer service help

It was one of the worst visit I have ever had at any place of business.. Very unprofessional lack of service….. I waited for 30mins b4 I went to seek help in a section that had no one to over see/to help anyone, I was then told I’ll be helped, waited another 10mins & walked straight to my car & went too Sam Ash….. I Recommend Sam Ash! Received not only the pair of sticks (that’s all i needed) but the awesome service that was impressed from entering in the door to me leaving

Associates seemed unconcerned. They all hung out behind the counters. I walked the entire store without being asked if I had any questions.

I placed an order with this store to receive a brand new Marshall cabinet. I was emailed that my product was not in the original packaging (open-box). I paid full price for something that could have potentially been tampered with or used by another customer. Very unprofessional and not what I paid for. Would I have bought an open-box product? Yes, but not full price and not for a cabinet.

One of the best studios in SoCal. Immaculate vibes and studio equipment for all.
