Support this great small business for all the right reasons. Craig does an excellent job, and has some really nice sounding tubes. If you live on the left coast and dig tube amps you’d be hard pressed to find a better place to checkout. Customer service is responsive, shipping fast, tubes are of great quality. A+
The place I go to get my various vacuum tubes for all my guitar amplifier. They have the best inventory in Sacramento. The best prices best inventory.

Great spot! I was there for Conga lessons with instructor Jabari. He’s a great teacher for beginners and anyone wanting to expand their skills.
My son has been taking drum lessons at the Hut for four years. The instructor is knowledgeable but keeps things fun for my son. He’s super patient as well as reliable and on time. My son looks forward to going to his lesson every week. Can say enough good things about the Hut! Highly recommend!!
I love The Hut! I was really impressed with the quality of the grounds as well as the comfortable and inviting atmosphere both inside and out.
It’s not only perfect for music lessons and performances but with the beautiful kitchen it’s also great for parties, reunions and gatherings!

I went to see my cousins “Rock band” recital and let me tell you, it was AMAZING. Smells like teen spirit has never sounded better. I couldn’t believe these kids were only around 11 years old! Not to mention, I know that my cousins don’t practice their instruments a lot. The kids before them were even younger and were playing so well I genuinely couldn’t believe it. If you want your kid to have rhythm and know how to rock and roll look no where else in LA other than Bloom School of Music ans Dance!
Impossible to reach. Have tried calling several times and never get a call back. Have been by their studio several times and no one is there.

Address: 6818 Fair Oaks Blvd, Carmichael, CA 95608 , Fair Oaks , California , United States
I didn’t even visit here, or know of it’s existence I was getting my truck smogged next door
The staff are mostly friendly and there is a pretty wide selection of instruments.
Huge selection, Great staff. Helped us make a difficult (and expensive) decision.
Decent place to shop for musical instruments and music classes. Great loaner program
Great place to get music lessons and a fun engaging staff
Staff are awesome and new location is great!
I have purchase and rented instruments here before. This time, five different staff said they would help, apparently what I wanted was not in stock and instead of letting me know, all left me waiting. After quite a wait we decided to leave. Someone caught us leaving and took our number to call and figure out how we could get ahold of the instrument. That was over 8 weeks ago, my phone never rang. They’ve lost a loyal customer.
This would be zero stars but a plug is warranted for John Doolittle’s sax lessons at the store of which I availed myself a couple of times. Zero stars involves me taking my alto sax there for repair. It’s over 50 years old but has had some restorative work done; fairly significant when I started playing again regularly about three years ago and more minor work several months ago and again following my unpleasant experience at Tim’s, the former by Kline Music and the latter by The Music Store in Rocklin. The guy at Kline is particularly known for his competence. The purported lead expert on reed instrument repairs at Tim’s told me my Selmer Mark VI needed a $1500 complete overhaul and they wouldn’t touch it for any lesser amount of work. The guy in Rocklin then fixed it for $65 and it plays just fine, as it did before it started acting up shortly before I took it to Tim’s. I played in church today and was complemented on my tone by their music director, who is a school music teacher and fellow owner of a Selmer Mark VI. An instrument in need of complete renovation obviously could not produce such a result. I got a different feel from the store than I did when I took lessons from Doolittle at the old location. Maybe they’ve bitten off more than they can chew financially but they’ve certainly lost my business.

Bill Becker is an exciting teacher who makes learning how to play and perform piano an unforgettable experience! I would recommend him to anyone and everyone who wants a teacher who will connect with his students and foster musical growth.
Gabe is an awesome guitarist and a great instructor. I would recommend anyone who is interested in learning guitar or taking guitar lessons to give Gabe a call!
Gabe is a talented guitar teacher of 20+ years. I have two elementary school-aged daughters in the studio, and he is wonderful with them. They play beautifully and have fun in their lessons.
10. Suzuki Piano Academy
Address: 10030 Fair Oaks Blvd, Fair Oaks, CA 95628 , Fair Oaks , California , United States
We are just starting our Suzuki Piano journey, but it has been so exciting to watch how it is taking shape. It really does follow the child’s lead and keeps them engaged. Practicing isn’t a chore. I often hear the twinkles being played throughout the day. Ms. Olga is fantastic!
We are loving our pianos lessons so far. My daughter has really taken to them really well. She loves her teacher Jessica, she is so patient, kind and explains what we are doing very clear while making it fun. And allowing parents to be involved has made this a fun experience for both my daughter and I. My daughter loves practicing and showing her teacher what she remembers from the week before and I know this is because of the method, it’s fun and makes learning piano more simple I feel. The academy also found a location for lessons near our home which makes it even better. It’s been wonderful so far, we love this method and the teacher. I would highly recommend this piano academy!
Mr Jackie was so great. He really offered the kids a great perspective in learning, he played games and engaged them. I really appreciated his approach to learning. My daughter asked to help her “play the blues” this morning, before our lesson she didn’t have any idea of such a thing and now she can’t wait to play the blues. I love it!

Saw these guys play tonight at Goldfield Trading Post in Sac and they rocked.
Great band members! Such happy regge-rock music! Great shows all the time! Riotmaker never disappoints!
Some of my favorite memories happened here. This garage will forever go down in history for me. The story of Riotmaker is more awesome than anyone will ever be privileged to know. This family bonds stronger than blood. I love these guys. They’re very very good people. They’ve been beside me through some rough times and I’d die for them.

Mr. Chen has been my daughters cello teacher for just over a year now, and we couldn’t be happier. She has grown so much as a cellist since moving to him. He’s brought her playing to a new level, without being mean or harsh. We hope we can always have him as her teacher!
I’ve been a student of Ms. Jina for 6-7 years now and she’s AMAZING. I really like her teaching style. She pushes her students to practice which they see really pays off later, and when I first started out with her, as an 11 year old, I really needed someone to push me because the teacher I was with before Ms. Jina, was very lax and never pushed me to practice, so I never really progressed much. But with Ms. Jina, the way she pushes her students to see their potential made me start practicing like 5-6 days in a week. She’s also inspiring so the things she says in lessons really pushed me to practice a lot too. Also, I like her personality!! She’s easy to talk to and genuinely, super funny a lot of times hahaha. Another thing, her students are really nice! Instantly became best friends with some of them.
Overall, I would HIGHLY recommend Ms. Jina as a violin instructor, and if she says to practice, go practice She acknowledges and really appreciates the efforts if you do.
Mr.Jia-mo Chen is best of the best cello teacher ever !!!!

Bass and Beyond is an awesome Bass store and I would highly recommend this to anyone interested in serious knowledge about playing Bass and lessons.
The owner “Juan Ortiz” is not only a great Bassist but an awesome guy to interact with and get to know. Make the trip and visit this location, I assure you it’s worth your time especially if you want to know about quality Basses. You won’t be disappointed.
