One of the better Walmart’s around. Clean and friendly place. The selection here seems to be better than other Walmart’s. Goods are stocked better here too. Employees are helpful as well.
Great variety
Excellent walmart.. great selection. Friendly employees
Did a great job on my wife hemi truck 4 new tires
It has everything
Largest variety
Not necessarily the store. The return was unacceptable if I return something on a debit card I expect cash immediately on my card I had to wait several several days for a little over a hundred dollars. If I told them they had to wait until my check cleared before they could take it out of my bank account they’d have me arrested on the way out of the store the hundreds of millions of dollars that you guys are holding for several days that’s called Bank theft as far as I’m concerned.
I left a full buggy of food sitting, and walked out the doors. Trying to force people to use credit cards makes me so angry. Unbelievable
Not a fan of any Walmart. People are rude,in hurry and just nasty.
3. Heartland Band Supply
Address: 202 Circle Park Dr, Sebring, FL 33870 , Avon Park , Florida , United States
Great place to get reeds for your sax. Very nice guitars and band instruments. Excellent service.
Great family owned business. Always friendly
Ive grown up knowing Rick and he has always treated me like family. He just did a difficult but amazing job setting up a new Floyd Rose bridge for me. I know it’s a difficult job, but he got it perfect and she practically plays herself now. Thanks Rick and Daniel for all your help and support. Love you guys.
Very helpful people. He tuned my instruments when i started out and has very useful equipment for not too expensive.
They had the mandolin strings I needed. Thanks
I bought some guitar picks. The entrance is on the side of the building, go up the stairs and down the hall. They have guitars for sale and give music lessons.
Would not restring my guitar at 340pm when they close at 4pm. Poor customer service. Loss of prospective customer.

Found just what I needed fantastic price staff loaded it into the car couldn’t ask for better service great job
Wonderful Thrift Store great prices awesome stuff and Friendly staff!!!
Great thrift store
I had alot of clothes, shoes very good stuff, so decided to bring it to Arc.It took me awhile to find It.I was getting out of my car to bring in some clothes in a big bag, I use a cane, someone came out , didn’t even acknowledge me and went on her way . I entered the store & left my bag on counter..The two women I saw were not friendly at all .I left disappointed, thought it would be a great place to give my belongings as it’s a good organization. They need better help or customer service training . Just a Thank you or Hello would of been nice .
Great items in the store. Clothes, furniture, and homes area too. A little expensive for a small local thrift store. Check out days where things are 20% off for better deals.
there very helpful ..nice place to dig around…
I would give zero stars if possible… rude employees and the way that they were speaking down to the disabled help was unacceptable… will NOT be returning to this place!
They need to at least update there pics on there website show diffrent newer pics of the store inside and out
Says they are open tell 5pm. I arrived at 3:50pm. As soon as I walked in the door the woman at the counter held up her hand signaling they close in 5minutes. I then proceeded to try and loop the store quickly however was motioned by a gentleman in the back of the store and he told me to exit and said they were closed. I showed him my phone and explained to him it was 3:52pm. He said the closed at 4pm and I explained to him it’s not 4pm yet. I left without purchasing.

Best thrift store around!! I try to go every week. They always have some sort of clothing sale and the book/media section is my favorite. The ladies that volunteer there are super great, too!
Great prices… great service
The name of the shop sums it up. Quality and variety of the different items available make this shop unique
Nice store. Organized. Good prices
Very RUDE for a church. Me and my husband are retired and I have a bad back.. So we figured we would go for a walk and sit down by the church on their picnic tables for break and then turn around and walk back.. We were not sitting there 2 minutes and a church employe said “you can’t sit there you have to leave..” Not How A Church Is Supposed To Treat Their Neighbors….
9. McDonald’s
Address: 339 US Hwy 27 S, Avon Park, FL 33825 , Avon Park , Florida , United States
Received wrong meal, when corrected was short of an item.
2 in afternoon, 45 min wait time or more, walk in and drive thru, won’t be back
Bin
I don’t usually go to McDonald’s and my visit today was a reminder why. I was in drive thru, ordered my food, everything on screen was correct. When I got my food I checked my bag and was missing one of my sandwiches, I went in to get it, no problem, but when I got home to eat it, the bun was burnt and one of the patties, literally, looked like a hockey puck! Small and burnt. I will never visit this particular McDonald’s again and possibly none at all!! And this is not the first time part of my order was garbage, I finally decided to give a bad review. Better quality control is needed, I’m really not surprised this establishment has only a 3 star rating. Maybe new management is needed!!
10. Big Lots
Address: 818 US Hwy 27 S, Avon Park, FL 33825 , Avon Park , Florida , United States
We couldn’t find it anywhere else. So we went to Big Lots. They had just what we were looking for, yeah BIG LOTS.
Friendly staff and some decent deals
If you can’t find what you’re looking for here, ask one of the friendly staff.
Eh.. Old building. Not overly impressed with the current available inventory. The inside of the building should be jazzed up a little more. However, in their defense… I did purchase an item. A good coat of bright paint would work wonders. Just saying..
Just looking around.
The store is temporary close
They got real expensive!
Buyer beware, “bonded leather” does not survive florida. We were sold very poor quality furniture that peeled apart within about a year.

Had an issue with a drum I ordered from Guitar Center Online. Totally not their fault!! The bearing edge (wood part) was messed up. I brought the drum back to this Guitar Center and they took the drum back and had a new one ordered and shipped back to my house. Henry in drums was a huge help!! Thanks for a great experience! I have never had an issue shopping here. Friendly and helpful people.
Good service
Fantastic repair service. Helpful and knowledgeable staff. Definitely an A+ experience.
Good spot for gear
They cater to some niches and not others. Inventory is pretty much a copy paste from other music stores. So many guitar brands that they could be selling and do not while if you want an off the shelf Ibanez, Gibson,or Fender they probably have it … it’s okay if you need a cable or something in a pinch but last I was there I couldnt get a set of 7 string guitar strings …
Love coming just wish that it was cleaner
Dean did a great job. Unfortunately Dean is not there anymore and my restring was pushed back past the promised date and never completed. Took the guitars elsewhere.
Poor customer service and quite frankly they could give a hoot. I have bought numerous instruments and items there. Stopped in to look around and bought a uke. They said it came with a box but when purchasing they said no box and “we can’t keep boxes around here” and yet I saw a lot of boxes there. They did not even have a bag to put it in. They barely said a word just “don’t touch” because of COVID but would leave the room so we had to chase them to even touch a guitar. I am In the market for an electric guitar but with that poor service I will be going elsewhere. GK
I was not impressed with there customer service towards an issue. I purchased an open box DJ board and In order to use the product you have to have a license from Pioneer. Guitar center informed me that Pioneer was responsible for being able to give you the license transfer. That’s not the case. I went back and fourth for a week with the two companies. Even corporate couldnt help me. Pioneer eventually gave me a new code but they said thats not something they normally do. It falls on Guitar Centers systems. Im giving a one star review only because I was told something that wasnt true in order to get a sale. Its crazy when you buy something for $1000 and can’t use it..very frustrating. You’ve lost me as a customer.
13. Burn Studios Recording
Address: 3809 Wild Violet Ave, Sebring, FL 33870 , Avon Park , Florida , United States
Spectacular results based on advanced mathematics.
Great job nice to work with.
Idk with the guy giving a random 1 star…
Burn is easy to work with. When I had a question regarding the mix and my own personal taste he revisited the 3 tracks and satisfied all of our band members.
14. Music Showcase
Address: 402 Oakfield Dr, Brandon, FL 33511 , Avon Park , Florida , United States
Great place for the kids. The staff is very friendly and great for kids of all ages.
My son gets piano lessons here and they are very professional and friendly.
It looks like the best place in the county to shop for musical equipment. I’ve never seen such a wide selection and very well displayed.
Private lessons are conducted by Well qualified musicians… I recommend!!! Ask the staffs about the free WiFi when waiting…
My friend has taken his instruments in here for servicing and he’s only said good things about them.
Good clean store. When I was there there was no one who could find the music I was looking for.
My son has been having guitar lessons with Greg for several months and we are only able to do every other weekend due to having a split family, which they were very understanding on at first. Now they have a student that can be a permanent student every weekend so Greg decided to bump my son out of the class!! They don’t care that we already paid for the class, they didn’t even bother to contact me and let me know!!! My son has been through a lot as it is and now is devastated because he really looked forward to going to class to learn to play the electric guitar. This is to me the worst type of business! Why would you kick a kid out of class because of a new student coming in?!? We have been customer’s for almost 6 months and now we don’t even matter to them! I will never recommend or go to Music Showcase ever again!! If you do decide to go there just know that this can happen to you too!
Hoy tuve una mala experiencia con un empleado hispano Moreno medio alto en esta tienda, que me arrepiento haber comprado ahí, por el trato despectivo que recibí.
Llegué diciéndole a este joven que buscaba un keyword Yamaha y en mi mocho inglés le pregunté que si tenía alguno que pudiera ver y me llevó a ver a algunos, pero su trato fue como si me estuviera haciendo un favor en atenderme y estuviera agotando yo su paciencia.
Vi el keyboard que andaba buscando y le dije que regresaría, poco caso me hizo, pues se fue a atender a otra persona que si merecía su atención.
(Habían dos empleados más, no sólo él)
Mas tarde regresé con mi hija y cuando íbamos a pagar, le comenté a una señora que estaba ahí, que el empleado o hijo del dueño no sé, me había tenido en poca estima y había tenido actitud cuando me atendió y desde ahí vi que no le gustó mi queja y cuando íbamos a pagar, con la expresión de incómoda preguntó de quién era esa tarjeta y que se identificara quien fuera la dueña.
Nunca me había sentido tan descriminada como hoy, no dignas de confianza, son hispanos igual que yo y tan valioso es su servicio como valioso es mi dinero
El keyboard está en su caja, no lo he abierto, yo me fui a trabajar a otra ciudad y regreso a Brandon hasta el sábado.
Estoy considerando la posibilidad de regresarlo, pues en Amazon está al mismo precio.
Ah y para cerrar con broche de oro, cuando regresé con mi hija le habló este empleado en perfecto español hispano, y conmigo siempre habló en inglés, dándose el cuenta que me estaba costando trabajo dar las características del keyboard
Le pregunté que porque a mí no me habló en español si se dió cuenta que yo soy hispana y el habla español, su respuesta fue tan absurda………!!! Es que eso no lo puedo hacer porque no sabía que idioma habla.
I rented a saxophone from them and paid $1034 dollars toward it. My child didn’t want to pursue the instrument further so I wanted to exchange it for a guitar. The salesperson informed me that I could exchange the sax for half the amount I had paid on the sax, but I had to pay $34 for repairs to the sax before I could make the exchange. They didn’t have any full size guitars and I was told they would not be getting more any time soon. The only guitars they had were 3/4 size for $249 or half the value of the exchange. I was told that I would need to talk to someone in finance to discuss the difference, but they should work something out for me. After several phone calls and emails I was contacted 3 weeks later via email that the exchange could only be performed on one instrument and that the remaining balance could not be carried over for anything else.
Not my idea of a good business practice. Oh, and the guitar I purchased its online everywhere for $120 – $150. So in the end I paid $1134 for a $120 guitar.
15. Onstage Music
Address: 8123 Ridge Rd, Port Richey, FL 34668 , Avon Park , Florida , United States
Great personal service very knowledgeable and professional would recommend Highly to all musicians, amateurs, and anyone interested in music
If you live near Onstage Music you need to bring your business here. Kenny set up my Martin perfectly, made my first experience feel like the 100th, and even let me play his Martin D18.
I brought two of my Basses in for a setup and Kenny said if there were any additional tweaks I felt necessary afterward, just bring it back in and it will be taken care of.
And true to his word, I brought it back in and Kenny set the action according to my personal needs.
It’s not a one-size-fits-all situation. Every player has his own preferences according to his style of play and Kenny accommodated mine beautifully.
Great work, great prices, great store, great guy. Remember it’s “Onstage Music for all your musical needs”
He even comped me a set of bass strings. It’s a long story, but long story short, that’s what he did.
The previous owner Bill treated his customers like family until he sold his shop to a bunch of crooks, I needed the new owner Kenny to put new strings on my guitar and he could not even do that right because my strings broke one after the other and when I asked him to restring the guitar he ordered that I’d have to pay him for the strings again and re-installation and when I asked for a refund he said “Absolutely not, because this would’ve never happened with any of my other customers” I asked “why are you doing this?” And he replied “what are you going to do about it?”
16. Central Music, Inc.
Address: 5175 Ulmerton Rd, Clearwater, FL 33760 , Avon Park , Florida , United States
Our committee looked at several organ installations and when we saw and heard the Rodgers in the showroom in Clearwater, there was no doubt that we would purchase the Rodgers. Installation and voicing were actually ahead of schedule. I will be playing my 3rd service Sunday, August 31 and my congregation is very, very happy with their new Rodgers – and so am I.
I have studied classical music for the past 55 years. Recently, I purchased a Rodgers Classic organ (series 558) for practice at home. The price was excellent, and service is outstanding! On the day of delivery, the truck arrived and the console, bench, and pedal unit were all blanket wrapped.
They spent about 1 1/2 hours setting the instrument up in the living room, testing and adjusting as necessary (pedals sitting on a carpeted floor), and a good 30 minutes or more showing ALL features and answering all questions.
Having been a music director in the South Florida Area for over 30 years, I have personally played on some of their installations – both electronic and hybrid electronic/pipe instruments. It becomes obvious when one walks into a church that great care was taken in designing the perfect instrument for the space – not only visually, but also acoustically. I have long been a fan of Rodgers instruments and they are the South Florida representatives.
Whether you have need of a practice instrument at home, or your church is looking to replace or upgrade the organ, I recommend without hesitation that you check with Central Music. I’m sure that you will agree that they stand out from their competitors in design, price, and support.
Having been a member of the Team of Central Music for many years, serving as Regional Manager for the Rodgers Church Organ Division in Southwest Florida, this great company is family to me. The combined experience of the sales and technical team is unsurpassed. There is no other company out there quite like Central Music, Inc.
Owner stood over me questioning about my income. Felt very unwelcoming. She claimed to do a lot of work with the church, but should probably read the Bible again. There are better piano shops where people welcome aspiring musicians…
Bad customer service, very rude
17. The Vibe Music Store
Address: 6126 N U.S. Hwy 41, Apollo Beach, FL 33572 , Avon Park , Florida , United States
Great place to shop. Went in for some cables and it was a flawless experience.
This place is amazing. The inventory is not really awe inspiring, but the staff is wonderful, caring, and trusting! I absolutely recommend this place to experienced music players as well as that of new music players ! Can’t go wrong!!
Hidden gem! Excellent customer service. They offer classes and have great prices on their instruments. Had my sons guitar repaired here and Marty took care of us with great communication and quick turn around. Highly recommended you stop in and check this place out.
Doti and Terry are wonderful! I love family friendly small businesses.
turned away because i refused to wear a face diaper. when you want to return to reality, I’ll happily come in for a guitar lesson. Thanks.
We have left three voicemails in the last week to see about music lessons for my child and not once have they returned a call. No one ever answers the phone. Doubtful they can stay in business with these practices. We won’t be calling again.
Been there 3 times at a normal hr after work at around 3-4 pm. Every time door was locked 2 times saw someone inside who did not come to the door. I was ready to purchase a new guitar with. Cash in hand each time. Also get my drum kit repaired. So willing to spend quite a bit of cash. So disappointed. Closest store to me. My money went elsewhere.i will not step foot in this place if the doors are open.
18. North Port Music & Bird’s Eye Studio
Address: 14860 Tamiami Trail 2nd Floor, North Port, FL 34287 , Avon Park , Florida , United States
A great store with lots to choose from and a friendly staff. The bright and colorful decor brings a great new look, products and music services to North Port Commons.
The guy was very honest and was very polite when being asked questions
This store has been renovated, painted, and has music lessons available for piano, guitar, bass, drums and many other Instruments! It has a friendly helpful staff, willing to help.
They have a guitar repair person on staff with professional experience, to help.make your guitar sound it’s best! Fastest turnaround ever! Usually within a day or two, (depending on the work needed).
Rentals for student band instruments is available as well! Fully stocked with many Instruments, ukuleles, guitars, strings, reeds, sheet music! You name it!
Warm inviting environment. I love the management also! If you need something, they will get it for you!
Came in for guitar strings, immediately when I got home two strings had popped after I restrung my guitar. I came back in and told the nice man and he gave me a free pack of strings to make up and told me “those are kind of old that’s why they’re on sale” but when I got home to restring again I had another one break. I’ve played guitar for years and have taken lessons for years, I definitely know how to string a guitar. I don’t see why he would continue to sell these strings knowing they’re old and faulty. I probably won’t be back here.
Purchased a Sigma guitar, which I was told was a subsidiary of Martin this was Saturday. On Monday wanted to return because the strings were to big and hurt my fingers. I was told to “suck it up” even after I told them I wanted to return for a different guitar. Anyway, on Monday I went to another guitar store where I wanted them to restring the guitar. I was told that restringing the guitar would be a waste of money since it was warped, the strings were raised to far above the fret board that’s why it was causing me pain and their was an issue with the bridge. I ended up having to spend more money on a new guitar. Satisfied with the new guitar purchased from a different store. Just a side note. Sigma guitars made after 2007 and doesn’t possess the Martin stamp on the guitar are not made, authorized or approved by Martin guitars. This bit of information I got when I called Martin guitars in Pennsylvania. So the guitar I was sold was a knock off brand manufactured in Indonesia even tho I was told it was authentic. Also, it couldn’t have been a new guitar since it was warped. So upset I wasted 283.00 on garbage. Will never do business again.
Bad rating for never answering their phone. Would be interested in making a purchase if ya’ll would pick up the phone and let me know if you have item in stock…. Guess ill call guitar center.. Tried your store with the number on your website 3 times. The last time I let it ring probably 100 times. Your website said you were open.
19. Moe’st Everything Muse
Address: 5208 66th St N, St. Petersburg, FL 33709 , Avon Park , Florida , United States
Brought in my drum for a new head and Moe fixed it on the spot. Very knowledgeable and is open till 10 some nights. Good selection of new and used instruments. Friendly place to visit.
Excellent personalized customer service!
No pressure…

I will be a repeat customer!
I know Moe personally and he will go the extra mile to make you happy and give you the best deal possible.
Lots of instruments to choose from
20. Sam Ash Music Stores
Address: 4644 E Colonial Dr, Orlando, FL 32803 , Avon Park , Florida , United States
I’m pretty much a beginner guitar player but when my new Squier Tele couldn’t hold tune and open low E buzzed repeatedly I decided to put some $ to the problems. Rob at the Colonial Ave address in Orlando did a fantastic and quick job with new tuners and setup. Thank you sir! This 63 year old appreciates your great work, great attitude, and great care. It’s not an American Player – that my job to acquire – but if I can finally make this dream of recognizably strumming a song then I’ll be back to pick one up.
I appreciate all the assistance I receive from Khalid at the Sam Ash Music store on East Colonial.
He also remembers my name and recognizes me when I come and finds ways to help me find what I’m looking for and if it’s not at the store he works on getting it sent to my house.
Very satisfied with my k-240 purchase, learned about having open back and closed back headphones in my home studio situation
Very friendly staff. And very knowledgeable.
I really like going there. Isaiah from DJ, sound, and recording has helped me so much. I’ve become a better DJ because of him. The only thing I will say is that the peices are a little bit more than guitar center. But I like my overall experience when I go there.
Place must be going out of business. Excuses that manufactures are out of stock when everyone clearly has stock.. trying to spend my money local but whatever.
Honestly not impressed, outdated selection, can’t demo any of the decent selection and staff is rude. Going back to Guitar Center.
Not really the best place for used gear
This place is a morgue, most of the floor space doesn’t have product. Smells and looks like a basement after it’s been flooded.
