Gas House is 1 of the top notch studios I’ve ever been to. Excellent quality and sound. Excellent engineer Chris Jackson helps you find the best sound and his skills are unmatched. Gas House Records Studio feels like home to me. Keep up the great work.
4. Homewood Musical Instrument Co
Address: 1712 28th Ave S, Homewood, AL 35209 , Fairfield , Alabama , United States
Amazing place. The owner set out nine different violins for our daughter to try and we found one that was right for her.
Good product, Good service.
Friendly atmosphere and lots of instruments.
I’ve never dealt with someone so rude over the phone. The owner tried to guilt me with sarcasm and acted like victim when I questioned a price. Full story: I asked to order a cello string. All was going well (owner answered questions about speed of shipping and availability of the string), but then he quoted a price ($81) that was far above what other shops charge. I said respectfully that “I’ve purchased the string for $45 at other walk-in shops” and he became sarcastic and argumentative with me, claiming he was “holding my hand” through the process, and said “Well, I have to pay $35 for this string so what do YOU think is fair for ME to make? $15? What is 35 + 15, huh? Ohhh, maybe $50 is more than you can afford?” A simple, “well this is my price” would have been fine as a response from him, but I felt disrespected so I hung up and decided I’m never going to spend a dime Homewood Musical Instrument Co. I advise everyone else to steer clear of this shop and the guy who owns it.
5. Highland Music
Address: 3000 Clairmont Ave, Birmingham, AL 35205 , Fairfield , Alabama , United States
Great amp repair shop! Sam Timberlake is one of the best!!
A Great music store I love it
My kinda music store. Classic amps and guitars. Helpful staff
Got a good deal on a used Vox guitar amp. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly. I fully intend to return.
They generally have the best used stock in Birmingham, lots of great vintage pieces, really just lots of stuff. However, they are not online, not even something as simple as a stock list. it’s really disappointing because I would like to shop and but from them, but it is not easy to get to their location (middle of downtown area, near the hospitals and trendy eating, so lots of traffic). I would buy so much more stuff from them if they would put up anything that simply listed their current stock. I can’t call them and say “hey man, list all of your guitars and conditions for me” every few day, and I am not about to drive 60 minutes from my suburb on a whim. Although I would be up there like a shot if there was an online presence/list, and there was something I wanted. But, since I never know what is up with that place or their stock, and gas is $$$, I just occasionally go, and rarely purchase. Great store, but 4 stars for no way of knowing stock ahead of a long drive through terrible traffic.
Pretty darn rude staff, including the owner, Don. After 40 years in business I guess they’ve earned the right, though.
Twice treated very rudely by staff. I’m over it.
I guess they have some unique items which is cool but the folks behind the counter really seemed like they were annoyed to put their conversation on hold in order to help me and were also EXTREMELY condescending and pretentious. I’m a fairly experienced musician and these guys spoke to me as if I was completely ignorant and always would be.
6. Art’s Music Shop, Inc
Address: 4647 US-280, Birmingham, AL 35242 , Fairfield , Alabama , United States
Great place to go.Got my new clasical guitar there.
Great place for instruments
Rented my children’s instruments for years
It’s nice that stores like Art’s are still around.
Attended a Breedlove Guitar Showcase. Art’s Music Shop in-store acoustic guitar lineup includes Breedlove, Michael Kelly, and Yamaha.
Big
SCAM! Just buy an instrument off Amazon with Affirm or some other if you need to make payments. The markup isn’t justified by the TERRIBLE and antiquated policies and customer service.
AVOID! THIS IS A SCAM!
No se los recomiendo, es mejor comprar en online
Arts is overpriced.
7. Bailey Brothers Music Company
Address: 4673 US-280 Suite # 7, Birmingham, AL 35242 , Fairfield , Alabama , United States
Good service very knowledgeable and helpful. The had what I needs at a very good price for a recording booth.
These guys are always super helpful.
This is the only location in alabama that sells Fretlight guitars. They range from beginner to pro.and the whole neck lights up with led’s to teach you how to play.
Great customer service. Great selection. However, I was NOT thrilled to see their logo custom printed onto the snare head I bought. Would have received 5 stars if not for that. Going to remove it with some acetone.
Usually get good service, but I took my guitar nut to be repaired after my guitar took a spill. I let them know the guitar had fallen and hoped they would fix. The nut was replaced poorly but the guitar had a buzz. Took it back 2 more times. The last visit, the person in charge of the repair (2 weeks later)said I had heavy fingers and raised the stings to a height that made the guitar unplayable. I took to another repair shop and they repaired the nut replaced by Bailey Brothers found a couple of uneven frets repaired the frets adjusted the neck and had to re-setup the guitar from the disaster repair at Bailey Brothers. If in need of repairs I will never return to this store.
good staff well organize not bad products
Dishonest, and disrespectful. While I’m aware they have an “all sales final” on used gear policy, it is their responsibility to properly inspect the gear they take in and not sell something that is damaged internally (in my case, a guitar amp). Idiot salesman also had a smug grin on his face the whole time my brother and I were having to deal with it (all 5-6 hours) and was making snooty comments back and forth. In a nut shell they sold me a dead amp and then laughed in my face about it. If this is how your business treats customers, don’t expect to be a business for long. I attempted a purchase with Bailey Brothers about 8 years ago. Was not a pleasant experience. This one wasn’t either. Rest assured, that’s it. I will not be back.
Update: Hey the owner called me just to prove they really do not care about customers. Tried to minimize what happened, and basically acted exactly like Keith did. Also a robotic “I apologize but we’re not going to do anything to fix it” does not count as rectifying anything. Gee wonder why the Southside store closed! Oh yeah and if you have a bad experience with them and they don’t own up to it they’ll do like any typical teenager does and tries to badmouth you on Facebook, then stalk your page. Very mature. Screenshots are great though aren’t they?
PS: Oh and buddy, if I were mad and desperate to pay my rent, then why in the heck did I buy a $700 amp from you? Nice try.
manager and owner very racist!
I explained to them thoroughly what I needed and they sold me the opposite! It all about sells and f**k the customers needs! Stay away from the southside location!
Highly professional & great quality studio set up. Love it!!
Excellent staff producing a great product
Eric and Eugene Bates are very professional, but are also the nicest men to work with. Their hospitality and patience are excellent. They have the best equipment and their technical expertise is world class. I had a wonderful experience at Bates Brothers.

Great bargain safe shopping great cashiers
Went well and fast
There not always stocked
Item on sell and not put in the system so customer can save this is not the first time this has happened to me
Service is slow
Store messy cashier discussion was about most treatment said he was trying to XOXO, and cursing while talking with other cashier about the issue, armed security in Store and parked outside i usually wouldn’t visit this store. And will not again paying for armed security and paying store workers minimum wage not right, stay woke.
The police were there, the employee front cashier was swearing the whole time while waiting on customer’s, it was crowded, something happened in store to bring police in and she was not a happy camper, just kept cussing and slamming the cash drawer.
The store is never open on time!

Great people I love quick pawn shop
Hey love it there I bought my rifle there will buy again
Great staff… Good merchandise
Overall happy with the service, friendly and professional, at peak times its a little slow. As for the people giving negative reviews, if you have f**k up attitude or demeanor that’s the service you receive. Most irate customers are already having a bad 75% the other 25% have legitimate issues. Which one are you.
I’ve been in customer service for 18+ years appliance installer
Gets crowded but has plenty in stock; good customer service.
The rudest employees. Lucinda ( i think is her name) is so very rude and completely unprofessional.
Last Saturday 5/6/23 I went into your shop in Midfield Alabama I was there to purchase a handgun for self protection. I was informed by your employee that the ATF Website was down and they couldn’t get me ok for the gun. I was ready to leave when your employee talked me into putting a certain gun on layaway because it certainly wouldn’t be there when I returned. I came back the very next Saturday to finish the process and had decided the gun we had put up I didn’t like the safety on and would prefer to choose another gun. A different employee a lady informed me they would be keeping $25 dollars of my money for restocking. I explained to her I just wanted a different gun she didn’t care she was set on keeping my money. Then another employee named Arron decided to jump in and was very rude to me and he then informed me not only was I not getting my $25 back I could only have a store credit for the remainder of my money. They never gave me 1 cent back of my money for that layaway that d only been off the floor for seven days and I should have certinly been told of thee policies before I put anything on layaway.Rude employees thieves will steal your hard earned money. Beware
I had to buy 4 window ac units last month before I moved. I decided to pawn one to catch up on the extra moving expenses. I paid $280 for each from Alabama power. I go in to this pawn shop receipt in hand and they offered me $25 saying the season changing. Mind you I had the unit in the box and it still had the new tape on it and had a remote. Smh yes trying to rip ppl off. I’ll just keep it. Smh

The entire Team was awesome and had a Great Vibe. The store had a huge selection to choose from, everything was priced, and most important the was clean and organized. A Big Shot out to Jenel who made me feel very welcome when I entered all the way to completing the sale. Thanks again and definitely will shop there again.
A great experience
Kay is an magnificent worker 🙂
I purchased a laptop and returned it. Couldn’t find another one so I got store credit. Eh. Just okay.
You guys should have some type of carts or buggies for those who bring in multiple items at once. Especially if it’s raining
Rude!!!!!
I’ve never in my life waited so long to be helped. 20 minutes plus. Not a smile or acknowledgement. Won’t return
Terrible experience! the employees look like they are wearing dirty shirts. one called me a liar to my face! I was buying not pawning off my possessions! I saw they even buy used sneakers and shoes!!!
