I had Mr. Perry set up and clean two of my guitars (an Ibanez RG and Gibson Les Paul). He not only got rid of the dead frets, he cleaned and made my guitars look like they were out of the box. I can’t recommend him to anyone else who needs a tune up on their guitars! Glen Perry is the man!
Our company Pack On The Go had an emergency situation to repair/tune a piano for a customer of ours, and Glen responded right away and took care of it. The entire process with him was very smooth and we’d recommend him to anyone else looking for help.
Good quality repair at affordable price
Both my kids go to Glen Perry Musical Instrument Repair – By Appointment and we have been going almost a year. The staff is great and they work with you to make sure the teachers match your child’s learning style.
I had the unfortunate experience of dealing with Glen after reaching to see if he could help with my Peavey tube amp which stopped making noise. He told me he could take a look at it and I dropped it off on 1/30/22. I wasn’t in a rush but I was surprised after not hearing from him for almost two weeks, so I called and sent texts on separate occasions, and no response. He finally got back to me saying he was on vacation which was understandable, and that the amp only had a minor soldering issue. He said it would be ready soon but the process repeated itself — I didn’t hear from him, I called a week later and no response. It was only when he answered another call of mine on 3/3/22 that he confirmed the amp was being worked and that I could pick it up on Friday 3/5/22, so I went and I tried it out in his office. The amp was working, but it had this unusual hum that I hadn’t heard before. I asked about it and he said it was because AT&T was working on some lines nearby and not to worry, so I trusted him. I’ll give him credit too because he did not charge me due to the delayed service. However, I got to my studio and played through the amp only to hear that same hum for about 2 minutes, and then all the sound cut out as it had 5 weeks earlier. I called Glen and surprisingly he did answer, but he was totally apathetic. Not only did he not tell me what the issue could still be, but he refused to take a look at the amp again and he did not give me any recommendations for other techs when asked. I confronted him about his poor work and his nonexistent communication skills and he offered no apology or explanation. This experience was surprising to say the least given all the good reviews I’ve seen of Glen.
Nice spot, very friendly and helpful staff. They are always offering to help. I have bought a couple of instruments here
Super friendly staff on the phone and in person.
Buena tienda
Great place, knowledgeable staff, good prices, parking not so great.
a lot of good records but gotta dig deep and be patient
Its cool store, but the staff is a littlr bit annoying.
Recently, I went in to purchase a replacement adapter that I bought from them a couple of months earlier. It came apart from my own doing, so I wanted to buy another one from the same place I bought it from to begin with. When i walked in, i showed them the EXACT same adapter I purchased FROM THEIR STORE a couple of months earlier.
I brought it home, and it wasn’t working properly, no big deal, but i wanted to exchange it and get one that works. I made sure my cable and my device wasn’t the problem because I tested them both separately, and they worked fine. The problem was with the adapter.
I walk in and they make eye contact with me but don’t help me, even when he’s just standing behind the register. Strange, but alright, I’ll signal them, maybe its an off day for them.When I tell the salesperson my problem, they immediately turn it on me, saying they sell a lot of those unites, and that its my device that’s broken. If that’s the case, then why was it working with the adapter that I just bought from you guys a couple months earlier?
They don’t do returns, so if you buy something from them and it doesn’t work, tough luck. I ended up spending a little more for the actual cable, but I don’t really mind that, its more about how they ignored my presence, and then when they did assist me, the salesperson flipped the situation on me as if it was my fault and they didn’t have a faulty product.
You’re better off going to guitar center/Sam Ash for the peace of mind. At least if your purchase doesn’t work, you can get a full refund. I came here when I did because it was closer, but i’ll take the drive to the GC in Kendall or the Sam Ash in Dolphin for my music needs.
Man I really go out of my way to support small business and these guys really disappointed me. My kids did classes here in the past and Ive spent thousands of dollars through out the years on equipment. Regrettably the young staff lack customer service training and they were very unhelpful. You are better off taking the drive and going to guitar center a couple of miles north.Wont go back ever again
This place is a big Joke, after going there 4-5 times over a period of time… same old business as usual… workers that don’t know prices of anything especially the RECORDS have to stand at the counter while getting in touch with the owner to explain records pice by pice in detail of their condition and what knot.. after spending 2 hrs of diggin with a pile of 60 albums..!!! It would take hrs.!!!! And when the owner finally shows up one day.. biggest jerk… and acts like your business there he could really do without.. well guess what… ✌ . And good luck with that arrogant attitude, anyone who shops there will see… “WASTE OF TIME”

Professional, talented and responsive. Elegant Musicians was such a special touch for my wedding. Beatriz was delightful, dressed professional and was very sweet. So much talent for hire and unforgettable experience. Thank you Oderlyn!
Elegant Musicians are talented and very professional. They are the perfect piece to any special event!
Jacklyn & Daniel Wedding – December 17, 2022. Frankly speaking, Elegant Musicians directed by Oderlyn Gutierrez-Bello became our favorite vendor (preferred vendor by Cinco Farm) among a long list of wonderful vendors that participated in our daughter’s wedding. We selected Elegant Musicians in part because of their wedding video recordings. Their pricing was fair at payment plan very reasonable; but what sealed the deal for us was when we had the opportunity to meet Oderlyn in person at our home. She was kind and welcoming; and gave us all a sense of reassurance. Oderlyn listened to us and took notes of every single detail. We had specific songs in mind for the Pre-Wedding, Ceremony, and for the Cocktail sections of the event. They delivered on every single one of our song requests and were amazing. The wedding was a black-tie event and we requested that the male musicians wear tuxedos, and the female musicians wear long black dresses. We also requested specific musicians based on the videos we had researched. Every detail was met with precision. The kicker came when rain began to fall as soon as the Ceremony concluded. The event was partly outdoors and Cocktail hour was about to commence. The musicians were supposed to play by the outdoor barn area we had chosen for the cocktail hour phase of the event; however, the rain was prohibitive. Without hesitation, the entire crew of Elegant Musicians knew exactly what to do and moved over to the dance floor located underneath the large, covered terrace area where the reception would be held. The played flawlessly throughout the cocktail hour despite the logistical challenges presented by the rain. We would certainly recommend Oderlyn and Elegant Musicians and would not hesitate to hire them again. Thank you for making our daughter’s wedding so magical!
Our son love it! Graet please to learn how to play a drum and other percusiones.
Lots of thanks to Mr.Cruz and his team. My daughter had just four private lessons with him and was able to pass the Jazz Band audition. This institute is excellent for percussion.
Wow! What a great experience we went to meet up with a Homeschool Group and ended up having a private jam session Brandon and all the staff were very kind definitely recommend this place for children and adults

I stop in here all the time to pick up a book or two for my students. Good prices, friendly atmosphere and great customer service! Every time I come here, I’m treated with nothing but respect and kindness. Very quick and efficient as well. Love this little gem!
I brought two guitars in last month to be set up. Rudy is excellent and the turnaround was way faster than I expected. I’ve had problems with the action on my acoustic for years that other shops couldn’t fix and Rudy handled it with ease.
This is one of my favorite & happy places in Miami. The team – Rudy and all – are clearly experts in their craft, love music and love sharing it. They fixed 2 of my guitars – one a really tough situation – and made them better than before and totally renewed by experience with them and music. Thanks guys !!
Looked nice from the outside. But was closed at 4:45pm, before displayed and published closing hour (5pm on Saturdays as of Feb 27th 2022).
On Dec. 10th. the fifth day of HanukkahI went to the store to buy a Ukelle. In the past I have bought 2 other On Dec. 10th. the 5th. day of Hanukkah I went to the music store to but myself a soprano Ukelle, having bought 2 other Ukes there. I picked up a yellow soperno Uke and took it to the desk. I asked the owner a rather tall stout man in his 6o’s to help me tune the Uke. His reply was I am to busy for that. Understanding that I suggested that someone else could get me a tuner. He looked me directly the eyes and said” PUT DOWN THE UKE AND GET OUT OF MY STORE”. I Stood there in absolute SHOOK! What did I do to cause this absurd response. Was it that I am a brown skin man with a colorful yamaka? Did he take me for a Muslim and decided to exercise his right to be a flaming bigot? I’d like to say bless him but I just can’t. There is no place for bigotry period.
One of the worst places i have been. first time i have felt so discriminated against. i was going to buy a 26k piano but these people are horrendous. They pre judge me by the way I look that I couldn’t afford any of the pianos. extremly bad experience i walked out. ill take my business elsewhere.
15. Sam Ash Music Stores
Address: 11401 NW 12th St, Miami, FL 33172 , Country Walk , Florida , United States
Great store, helpful and knowledgable shop assistants
Manager Michael “B” assisted me in selecting a portable piano for my daughter. He was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. And although quite busy, he took a great deal of time assisting me and never appeared rushed or annoyed spending the time to help me make the best decision. I never felt pressured to buy a higher priced item or what he recommended verses the model I thought I wanted. I did, however, purchase a more expensive model than planned but felt it was the correct decision based on features and capabilities. His input and ability to answer the questions I had made the difference. He cares about his customer and it showed ensuring his store will be first on my list for future purchases. Thank you Michael!
I ordered an Alesis Strike Multipad for use at home in The Netherlands. This has not come out in Europe and will not be available for the next 2 or 3 months. Ordering online at Sam Ash International (location Miami FL) was easy and hassle free. I had great help from Tony Duarte who was quick at replying to my emails. He said shipping would take two weeks but I had the item within one week. Had to pay additional import- and VAT fees, but that is to be expected. I will buy at Sam Ash again!
Knowledgeable staff, some times a little arrogant but knowledgeable.
Surtido y unidades bastante limitadas, tampoco tienen publicado el precio de muchos productos.
It’s a complete store.it has everything. It needs just a constant improvement in customer service. Rugs smell bad. Entrances glass doors shady not clean so it gives a not welcoming ambient. A little bit of air freshener. The manager is the best. He doesn’t know me but I seen him for years. But store needs a bit of touch up of upscale place.
Ordered an item online. Recieved an email it was ready. Arrived at the store. Waited 25 minutes to recieve my product. Everyone was busy attending other customers. Staff member apologized, but it still was not worth the wait. Big establishment. Plenty of parking, but depending on the day of the week and time, you may walk a distance. Prices are average as compared to competitors. Located in a huge mall.
I went there (the Dolphin Mall store) years ago, got interested on the new Gretsch guitars, spent about half an hour testing them and a store associate walked up to me and told me that if I was to only play and not buy anything to leave the store. I did so and never came back.
We went to Sam Ash to purchase 2 wireless microphones. They did not have what we were looking for. Instead they offered buying two separate sets of 1 wireless microphone. We ended up finding the product we wanted somewhere else and decided to return the unused wireless microphones 4 days later. We explained to the manager that they did not have the product we were looking for initially in stock and we had to buy elsewhere. They did not want to give us back a full refund; they stated it was policy and nothing could be done. Very poor customer service and disappointing return policy given the circumstances. Will not return.

I’m brand new to playing guitar and Brian took the time to explain and demonstrate the different styles, sounds, terminology and guitar specs. I’m excited to start playing guitar after being influenced in the right direction. I can tell he loves what he does and it showed. Thanks again man, you rock! \m/
Musician’s supply place!
Pretty average guitar center; go to Hallandale though. More selection and overall a bigger store.
Great variety
Been going here for more then 10 years, went in to do a warranty for a cable and employee did not want to help me at all, horrible customer service and no one there is helpful.
Muy mala experiencia. El cliente no es importante no hubo nunca una persona que te atendiera, ni cajero. No volveria nunca.
Muy mala asesoría, La atención pésima!!

Pésima atención de costumer service Los dos muchachos gordos mostrando mi ID de 26 años no me vendieron por andar con andar con mi hermana menor acaso tengo que dejarla en el carro!!!! Maltrato al cliente no se la recomiendo
Horrible service, employees are stubborn and rude my sister is over age and showed her ID and still refused because I was with her and I am a minor still, even though we explained that it was for her personal use.

Very happy to have found a tech who is honest, does great work at a good price. Will definitely be doing business with him again.
Albert Fortes is the luthier that I most trust in Florida to handle, repair, and build gear for me. I guarantee your equipment will be handled with the upmost care and respect.
Albert brought my Les Paul back to life after an unfortunate headstock break and I couldn’t be happier with the results. He managed to keep me updated throughout the process with pictures and details on what he was doing next. Very nice guy and I’ll definitely be going back for any future needs.
