Brett and the guys are great just bought a back porch guitar all wood beautiful locally made..go check it out. NOW taking lesson super music store.
Dropped by this store while visiting from Memphis. An awesome little store with a touch of that good old school vibe. Brett was very pleasant to chat with and really knows his stuff especially on vintage gear. Thanks Brett for a great visit.
Nice little place full of musical equipment!
Great selection for guitar music, guitars and accessories. Lacking on the other instruments tho.
Local place, always friendly
Not bad not good. Has a beautiful guitar that is very unique to see
Unimpressive staff support
I was never there
2. The Music Connection
Address: 341 W 3rd St, Chico, CA 95928 , Berry Creek , California , United States
They fixed my childhood guitar and I was even lucky enough to find a case for it even with it’s size.
The staff was extremely knowledgeable and helpful! He answered my questions I had about the violin I brought in( which I had minimal knowledge of).
The Music Connection rocks!! I highly recommend Dan. He taught me how to drum when I was a kid and now at 25 I just bought a Yamaha Stage Custom with help of Dan because I miss drumming a lot. Friendly staff and good equipment too!
I really appreciate these guys for their customer care and smart staff. Good job making the store a fun and relaxing place to explore musical instruments for all ages!
Got my input fixed on my wife’s guitar and my daughter’s veola fixed up too.
Happy new year!
I took a subwoofer at this place for repair. I got a call back about 3 to 4 weeks later regarding the cost, i asked them to hold the subwoofer until i have a chance to pick it up within 2 weeks without repairs and i was told it was not a problem. 2 weeks later it was pouring rain and since i have a truck bed which is the only place where the subwoofer would fit, so i didn’t not have a way of picking it up. i went today to get it and the person in repairs said that he threw the subwoofer away, because i took so long. He also claimed that he left a voicemail saying he would throw it away if i didn’t pick it up. I had a message to pick it up, but he did not say that otherwise it would be tossed away.
This was an expensive sub and the only thing it needed was a speaker, the amp on it was perfect and the box was in great shape. Anyone with common sense knows that they probably fixed it and sold it, given that everything was in great shape except for the speaker. I feel that they way they do business is dishonest and do not recommend this place to anyone.
3. Foggy Mountain Music
Address: 104 W Main St, Grass Valley, CA 95945 , Berry Creek , California , United States
These guys are definitely on par with the local music scene! Very knowledgeable and helpful. They offer reasonable instrument consignment sales as well.
Employees are very laid back while still being helpful
Great shop, very good personable owners. They’ve got pretty much everything.
Bought a dulcimer hand made in Arkansas.
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
Foggy mountain is a good little mom & pop music store they have all your needs and wants and if the don’t they can order it , they give back to the community and I’m a firm believer that you should buy where you live so if I have musical needs I always start at Foggy Mountain I like the employees and the owners are good people . Worthy of a stop in and I’m sure you’ll return over and over
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
4. The Music Store
Address: 4815 Granite Dr, Rocklin, CA 95677 , Berry Creek , California , United States
Fantastic local music shop. Solid prices, helpful people, friendly environment and great selection
My daughter’s trumpet had 1 of the valves checking and sticking down. For no charge, he simply took the valve apart and adjusted the plastic piece which had rotated and it works like new. So polite and helpful and didn’t charge for his time to show me how to repair if it happens again.
Awesome store with great services and lessons. I took clarinet lessons for a few years and piano lessons as well. The teachers were effective and engaging.
Friendly staff and very helpful.
I rented a used violin for my son from the shop. They said the price was $199. The rental was $35 per month. after two months if you want to own the violin then they said they would deduct the rental amount from the original price. But when we want to buy the used violin they said the price is $299 which is hell more than a new violin. So would recommend not to rent or buy anything from this store.

Excellent customer service and knowledgeable staff! Had everything we needed in one place and at affordable prices!
Sebastian is great. He guided me through buying a tenor ukulele, case and tuner. Beautiful instrument that I’m very excited to learn. Highly recommend El Dorado Hills Music.
This place is awesome! Havent been in a music store this cool in over 25 years. Not a bunch of junk, quality over quantity.

Their music selection was a bit small but they had everything I needed at a very reasonable cost.
The line was crazy long and they were extremely under staffed.
Did not have a kazoo
7. Tweed Hut Music Store
Address: 359 Merchant St, Vacaville, CA 95688 , Berry Creek , California , United States
Anytime I need anything, these guys are usually the only stop I need to make.
Super selection (Fender, PRS, Gretsch, Ibanez, Martin) and nice folks. Hard to ask for more.
Friendly folks But poor job on my guitar.
1) I took my new guitar for setup and it has the transparent pickguard, it was all dirty inside the pickguard so i had to buy the tool to open the pickguard and clean myself also few screws were popping out. (And also they took off the protective sticker which i kept for a purpose.
2) the frets were still sharp which they said they gonna file it off. So i had to take another shop to get it done and i spent more.
Drove 160 miles total and spend money for poor treatment to the guitar.
My 12 y/o special needs son walked in this store and asked for help, by using their phone to call his mom and was refused help this is absolutely despicable. I will absolutely let people know what kind of people run this store.
They had a decent selection of instruments, but I was very disappointed with how one of the workers treated my friend and me. We were playing on a few different instruments over the course of about 30 minutes, and at some point a worker walked up to us and told us that the jamming had to stop. Never thought I’d hear that complaint in a music store, especially since we were playing relatively quietly. He most likely assumed we weren’t serious about buying anything (which is far from true), but I can assure you that they won’t be getting my business any time soon. I’d rather drive the extra 30 minutes to Guitar Center.
