Great staff, so many guitars to choose from, and they provide classes there. Plus they have a cute lil cat there.
Great service!
Good deals, pro shop
Really nice little shop. Good selection of guitars, keys, synths, and gadgets. Extremely helpful crew and very knowledgeable. They have specials not offered on line so drop in! And with the holiday, layaway @ 20% down and 90 days to pay.
Very nice guitar selection. Certified Gibson dealer so that is always a plus. Also, the carry quite a few beautiful used Martin’s. Friendly, helpful staff will assist you in any questions or concerns to make your experience there enjoyable.
My autistic 6 yr old daughter just started Piano lessons with a very nice woman who operates out of a music room in the back of the building. She was very friendly and I love her teaching methods so far. I rated 4/5 because Ive only had one lesson so far. My daughter loves her.
Remember when is better!!
Manager Rick is nice to work with, but E.C.King is so rude that my son & I will never go back. Saturday 7/1/23 we walked in as a nice older couple bought 2 guitars, but I guess King thought they talked too much because after they left King railed on them for 10 minutes, while my son & I were 5 feet away, made the place seem really negative. Then he was rude to my son about a pedal, and made rude, snide comments to me even though we were being nice and I was at the counter buying a Telecaster. I literally couldn’t believe my eyes and ears, I’ve never seen a guitar store employee act like that, and I’ve been in a lot of guitar stores. Seems like some serious retraining needs to be done at Leitz Pensacola. We saw the opposite at Blues Angel, nice helpful people, and we bought a great guitar there— that’s where we’ll be going from now on.
I like to support local businesses and buy my guitars local. But being turned away because of not wearing a mask when The CDC even says it ok to go with out a mask is down right bad business! Every other music store including “Guitar Center” no longer requires mask. I was coming in to buy a les Paul standard 60’s that I have been saving for and was looking forward to buying today but because of your mask policy I will order my Les Paul online. Sad thing is I liked your store. Just thought whom ever runs the place should know what their dumb mask policy is costing them.

Friendly and knowledgeable staff, Jessie is also a wonderful guitar instructor.
Blues Angel is an amazingly comprehensive music store. So many instruments AND lessons are available. Our grandson was able to look at and try all the instruments to find THE one he wanted to learn to play first. Mattix chose the ukulele. Michael Clark showed him a few chords as did Jim Destafany…he played those chords until his first lesson with Jimmy. What a great instructor!!!! Patient, intuitive and completely effective…Mattix really likes him and looks forward to his lessons. What an incredible place!
Easy to order and I received a call from one of the employees verifying some address discretions that came up to insure there were no issues with me receiving my order. Very professional and I would definitely purchase through Blues Angel Music again as well as recommend them to others.
It gives you different musical options and they have small classes that teach music and their businesslike aspect of it is very great as well
What happened to Blues angel Music, in Daphne/Spanish Fort?
Really cool atmosphere and nice staff. Wish they had a little more options with drum equipment but I realize they’re limited on space compared to bigger places.
My husband recently bought a guitar and rented music equipment for our wedding reception spending well over 500$. So earlier this week we went into the store to buy a drum set to support local business, but we wanted to try out the set before we bought it. when you walk into the store you can clearly see rooms set up for lessons and to try out music equipment before you buy it which we have done in the past.
We talked to a salesman who is bald with a beard who works in the rental section who was incredibly rude. When my husband asked if we could go into the drum room and test the drum kit before we buy one, he rudely informed my husband that we could try the drum set for kids in the corner. My husband asked the sales associate if we could check out the kit in the room with the drums and this time he walked us over to the room showed us the set and said these are not for anyone to play on and we could not try them out. Why are they in your lesson/ practice room if nobody plays them?
Dealing with this rude gentleman was very unfortunate because we give blue angel a lot of business. We have shopped at Blue Angel Music for a couple of years and buy music equipment from them on a regular basis. Now because of this rude sales associate and the way we were treated we will take our business to GUITAR CENTER in Pensacola
This store has been around for a long time, I have gone many times and have purchased quite a few pieces of gear. The last few years though I have received terrible and condescending service from the employees, especially Jacob, blonde hair with glasses. Jacob has actually tried to talk me out of purchasing items on several occasions. When I bought my PRS he asked repeatedly why do I need a full scale? Why would that matter, I’ve played guitar for years I know what I want, that is why I picked that guitar, “NOT” because I want to be questioned by some music store clerk. Thanks for your condescending opinions Jacob, because of you this business has lost a loyal customer…
Worst guitar store experience of my life. Rude and arrogant salesman treated me like I was stupid. I’ll no longer feel bad ordering from big name music stores in the future.
Edit: I really hoped to be able to change this review but after reaching out to the email provided and getting no response, it will sadly stay up.

Address: 6927 N 9th Ave, Pensacola, FL 32504 , Ensley , Florida , United States
Called ahead to confirm product was available. Showed up and it was at the counter, ready to go. Easy peasy.
Lots of cool stuff, friendly staff.
Awesome place, the people they are extremely helpful and nice. The gentleman with the ponytail was very nice, and helped me find some awesome strings.
Nice folks with a good selection.
Friendly staff……
Good people
Customer service was terrible. No selection, and little knowledge of the product I was trying, but didn’t buy. Keep catering to your garage band children and “guitars make me look cool” customers. It’s an awesome strategy.
The store was clean and had plenty of staff, if only someone had told them that they should try and talk to the customers. I had several of them just put their head down and walk right by me as I was searching the store for what I needed. Decided I would get it somewhere else instead.
Walked in ready to make an expensive purchase. Not a single employee even looked up. One guy was too busy drumming on a pad at the front, another guy was talking to what I thought was a customer. Turned out it was just two employees talking. Guess I’ll just buy it online

love this place & anthony is just wonderful!! he really knows how to make you feel comfortable & takes your recordings to another place! love that he listens to what you want and brings your sound to life! it’s always a great vibe!
Dyandra and Anthony were super awesome to work with! They were easy going and helped create website/media content for my business that really conveyed exactly what I wanted!
My experience at Modus Flow Hit lab remains unmatched at any level. Anthony and Dyandra have the highest level of professionalism and enthusiasm. The studio provided a relaxed atmosphere that made me feel right at home. They are honest, hard- working, open minded, and innovative and thorough in their work. It is always great to work with someone who loves what they do and is great at it. Looking forward to working with Modus Flow in future projects and more.

My daughter plays several instruments that on occasion have needed some maintenance. Each time we have been there they have been very friendly and professional. The repairs we have had done have been done well and quickly. Prices have been extremely fair. 10/10 would recommend!
Very friendly.
Great knowledgeable staff in all aspects of music
This is a great shop with friendly staff, but sometimes the wait is too long.
Great staff. They have good quality equipment and knowledgeable staff who are also musicians. They go the extra mile.
Great
Too expensive
They said “oh we can’t fix your flute because it is a hunter we don’t work on those
I came to the store looking for some help on purchasing my first violin, I ended up getting snubbed. I was trying to get some general information on purchasing and what I needed, instead I was told at least 3 times how expensive they were. I was deffinetly judged upon walking in the door, as it was I had just returned from a trip and did not feel I needed to dress up to go into a music store. In the end I am glad I had this experience because it allowed me the opportunity to find another business that was actually customer service oriented, and was not judgmental. I am now on my second violin and enjoying every minute of it, no thanks to this store.
Great used with limited selection of new vinyl records. Equipment available too! Come get a new old turntable and amp and speakers and start your analog experience!
The owner was incredibly kind and helpful. Has a huge selection and good prices.
Older gent in his house packed with an AMAZING record collection. First timers get 30% off (shhh) an incredible selection.
Nice little place but can’t ever catch the owner there. They will buy records but for very cheap. They mostly want equipment like record players and 8 track players and anything if that sort. All in all it is a pretty nice place. Now if it is records you want to buy them I would most definitely recommend this place for you because they have plenty to choose from.
Nice place to find CD or records. Kinda sorted and unsorted at the same time. Like genres are together but shuffled in there area
Found this place had recently reopened. Lots of records to look through; well worth checking out if your a vinyl buff.
I stopped by at noon on a Tuesday, the place was locked up tight with no one around. According to the posted hours it should have been open. I’ll change my rating if they update their hours or something.
I have been three times. The first time I was basically shot down before I walked in the door. The second time I asked a friend to come along, a male friend and I was offered $80 for the same records I had brought the first time that he basically wouldn’t even bother to look at before. I left with $90. I went a third time and was told “honey, there’s nothing here I can use I have so many of the same already in my sheds. No room for more”.
I’m fairly certain that being a woman with dreads showing up on my bicycle had a lot to do with the way he treated me. Certainly men are not so quickly shunned. Boo on you Mr. Man who seems women not worth the time.
Went to this store with my 4 girls, sign was posted with business hours stating customers were required to wear masks, spent 20 dollars on masks at Walgreens came back only to find store was closed.
