Great service!

Effortless rental of instruments, rented a alto sax and a trumpet for my two boys school band . Very friendly staff, great prices.

I would go here very day but I live far

Helpful staff.

Really good music store. Only thing is that if you pay with a really big amount($100) for a small priced item($15-$40) they is a chance they might not accept it.

Very disorganized….

Mi hijo estaba muy contento con la maestra, pero la maestra de piano se enfermaba seguido y cancelaban las clases y me regresaron lo de seis clases que ya habian cobrado pero eran 7 me deven una ya van dos meses y sigo esperando me gustaria saber si me van a regresar lo de esa clase o se lo van a quedar con mi dinero??

Poor customer service was told we had a certain rental credit amount that could be applied to new instrument but that amount stated was changed when the final price of the instrument was totaled.

This store goes above and beyond for their customers. Very knowledgeable on their instruments and they genuinely care about pairing a player with the right equipment. They don’t pressure anyone for the sake of a sale, but rather do their best to ensure you leave with the instrument you’ll love and will enjoy playing. Went in my first time and left with two guitars that I will be playing for years to come. Thank you Corona Music Center!

Very friendly and helpful staff. I will be back with my guitar.

One of my fav places. No baught my first Telecaster here. Still love it

They were very helpfull

I rent a new flute shown as model Stagg ws-fl231, and the price is $452.55. They told me the rent cost could be counted as deduction when I buy it later. Six month later, the spring on the flute is loosed. They change a used Jupiter shown model JEL 700 to me and stated its price was $500. Three month later, the same issue came again. Since I have rented for nine months, I asked what the balance would be if I buy the used one. They told me the balance will be about $470, and the price for the used Jupiter Jel 700 is about $800. I doubted whether the used one is worth the price. They told me the price of a new one is about $1900. On the next day, I found the contract, and it showed the price of the used one was $500. So they were making up a price or number to overstated the worth of the flute. If I didn’t keep the contract, I would have been cheated by them. When they were lying to me, they spoke it out so naturally that I have to conclude that they must have lied for many years. If you search the price of the Stagg ws-fl231 on Amazon, you will find its price is $199 for new one. The price of Jupiter JFL-700 student on eBay is only $485, and it is a new one. After the deduction, which I have paid $330 as lease payment in recent nine months, I still have to pay an additional $170, then it is considered as pay off. In this way, I paid total $500 to rent and then buy an used flute. It truly doesn’t deserve it. I suggest everyone to check the price of the same model on Amazon or eBay before you lease or buy it. In addition, there is no any terms of the lease payment for deduction listed in the contract, so it is just oral promise and not protected by the contract. Never trust their lies.

Don’t show up without calling first. If you try to sample an instrument they will ask if you are there for a lesson. If you say no, they will ask you to immediately leave.

To reply to the poster, I did give you a chance to respond, you asked why and I said to play, you did not clarify the pianos were not for sale and that that was a lesson room. You immediately turned your attention back to the guitar lessons you felt I was rudely interrupting. Please do not tell me I don’t know how to interpret body language or communication when you shut it down first. The review stands. A google local guide. Sorry you were rude to the wrong person.

Bought a drum set with all the hardware (cymbal stands and throne), but never received the throne when I picked it up. Also bought a Zildjian ZHT cymbal pack (crash, china, ride, hi hat) at the same time, and to this day (four months) I have not received the crash cymbal. I have called numerous times, and they always tell me that a shipment is coming and I will get a call when they get it, but I don’t think it takes four months for a shipment to arrive. Also, their selection of drum sticks is practically nil.

Had an informative time talking ukelele with Gary, and SHOPPING at 951 Ukelele. Good selection of available strings, and a nice selection of ukes. From beginners to high end; soprano to baritone and base, there is a good choice. Check out the fun Magic Flukes too. Also, ask about the DIY ukelele kits. Great if you want to personally customize your uke.

Great Ukulele store. Lots of brands and sizes to select from. The Ukulele lessons are fun and easy to learn.

This place completely refinished my piano from a wood brown to a piano black high gloss finish and did it to perfection.

Peter is very professional and nurturing. Our child has flourished not only in musical skill, but also with her confidence since beginning her lessons. The studio is super clean and organized. We highly recommend!

This place has a family welcoming feeling from the moment you arrive.

The owner Peter is an excellent teacher. I switched my son’s guitar lesson to him and I’m glad I did. He knows what to teach kids about musical instruments. And Peter is so easy to talk to and polite. I highly recommend Peter. If you are not happy with current lessons, try this music school. You won’t regret it.

Very nice and helpful people and there are really good instructors really recommend this place for eny instrument lessons.

Very professional and informative. I recommend them.

My daughter had been taking vocal, guitar, and keyboarding lessons at Music and Arts for 4 years. I have watched her grow as a musician and am very happy with her progress. I have always felt comfortable leaving her there for lessons because the staff is professional and friendly. I highly recommend this music studio.

We really enjoyed our instructions from Mr. Johnson. He taught both my kids for two years and they developed considerable skill. These lessons are a little more affordable than other lesson providers. Thank you!

When i came I was in beginning band and I bought a mouthpiece for a trumpet it seemed to be tarnished so I got it checked it turned out to be used this scared me so when I went to return it the lady gave us hell.

I delivered load there
Fast
Too fast

Mi mejor motivación para seguir adelante trabajando para ayudar a mi familia

The factory in Corona California is right near my uncle’s place. If you know guitars then you know the name Fender. Leo Fender was famous for making solid body electric guitars. The most iconic is the Fender Stratocaster launched in 1954. The museum is a great place to visit. If you are a guitar enthusiast I would highly recommend it.

It was a great job, very nosey people but that’s everywhere. I just hope you guys aren’t making the people work right now because I know damn well most of your employees in the mill are 50+

Como aplico para trabajar aquí?

I ordered & bought the best 5-string jazz bass ever. .. of life!! / staff was friendly, helpful / if I had 2 pick anything 2 gripe, this is very small / bring n a few more 5-string basses cuz the place has a ubiquitous supply of 4-string basses

Jerks at the front desk

No equal employment. They didn’t want to hire me and there was no reason but they still hire other people

Drove from Ventura County to visit the factory and visitor center only to be told by an employee it was shut down during covid and will never reopen. Such a disappointment for guitarists and guitar aficionados. What an awful corporate decision.

Awesome music classes (Kidz Rock Free) And a cool historical building!! 🙂

I was there on an opening party Dave Mason performed— wonderful
