A great selection for such a small store. The owner was very helpful and accommodating. Will definitely be back soon!
Great place!
Great people, super nice. Would five star if they had a bigger selection.
lots of instruments and good service very good indeed any musician should go there for strings or replacement many parts to choose from excellent indeed
Great local music store!
I went back to return a small item and I was really treated unkindly. At the end the owner complained for not wanting to loose $25 but not only he looses, we were regular costumenrs and also loose a close to home place to get our music supplies.
Fella that owns it, is rude and disrespectful.
Went in and with 5 people and tried to buy some misc merch and no one would get off the couch to help… Asked if we could cash out 2xs guy on couch turned his head… Don’t go!!!

Allen is great. He worked with what I wanted and needed and didn’t to try to talk me out of what I wanted like most of his kind do. He was efficient and ahead of time. I picked up my guitar a day early and saw where he even made corrections to what guitar center had messed up! I highly recommend Allen to any degree level player!
Excellent work and a great person! I needed a pickup installed on my mandolin and only had a small window of time available in between gigs. Allen did a terrific job, within the needed time frame and even adjusted the bone nut to eliminate some string buzz that I was recently experiencing! Very fair rate, too. Highly recommend.
While I was there I was also able to play some of his Baruke guitars, which are also very nice. Wonder it he’d trade one for my Martin? 🙂
Absolutely the finest guitars and repairman in the Southeast!!! Allen Williams is an authentic craftsman!

Great selection and friendly staff lots of selection and really nice and drums and anything you are looking for… Amazing!!!
Dusty and Pauly were fantastic in assisting me with my purchase.
Great communication and helpful in making it a great purchase experience!! Highly recommend. Thanks.
Great selection and great prices. Very helpful and friendly staff.
The store itself was fantastic pricing was great. The only drawback was the parking lot, it was tight
Muchos de los instrumentos un poco caros para ser usados
Cheap, well used gear.
Went in today to buy a few picks around 12 this afternoon. After grabbing a few, I went to pay for them. The guy in front of me just bought an amp and left to get his car to load his equipment up. I was standing there waiting to pay for my stuff and the guy behind the counter (without even acknowledging me) just walked away. I can’t imagine he didn’t see me. I’ve shopped there off and on for years and I never go out of my way to leave bad reviews, but this place earned it. I teach guitar and used this place for books, picks, and other things. I’m very understanding towards employees in retail and usually won’t make an issue out of most things. But, I was completely ignored and I won’t refer my students to ever go to this place to pick up anything they may need.
Cool if you’re looking for music gear but terrible place to sell, all these guys do is low ball you and try to make as much profit on your gear as possible. Would give a better review if your employees weren’t so stuck up. They’ll be happy to take your money though anytime.

I have known the family of owners for decades, always honest and honorable people, knowledgeable, fairly priced.
Great service.
Good store
Have most items you may need however they’re a little pricey most things are available for less online.
Not enough room to display musical instruments. Cold hearted atmosphere
Guy was on phone the whole time…and we waited. Not sure this is the norm but it was my one and only visit
It was obvious that my presence was causing discomfort to the manager/cashier/whatever. I was not allowed to play a certain Epiphone Les Paul (not even a Gibson) because ‘they wanted to keep it clean’. I am a frikin professional guitarist with 11 years of experience and no music stores have ever denied me of handling an instrument. Highly offending for a first time visitor’s impression.
Go to Guitar Center and avoid this place, you’ll be glad you did.
Expensive, great variety

Address: 1651 Horizon Pkwy #500, Buford, GA 30518 , Franklin Springs , Georgia , United States
Wonderful family run music store. Friendly and knowledgeable staff.
Jackson’s repair artist, Doug, recently rebuilt my Selmer Mark VI. I say artist because Doug took the job to a level which surpasses just a collection of new parts being installed and rather added an organic component that only a caring professional with a mindset of a job meeting a standard only they are able to lay eyes to and understand. Doug certainly meets and surpasses the highest of modern professional repair standards and has my highest recommendation.
The two gentlemen that helped me were so helpful and nice. Will be visiting again.
Always pleasant – always professional and it’s been that way since I moved into the area!
I’ve read some of the complaints here and I’ve not had those experiences and I shop there a couple times a year. I also understand how smaller music stores value the integrity of their new products by trying to limit maring the guitar finish with picks. You wanna do that you’re right- go to Guitar Center.
First rate staff and ownership and first rate lessons with an experienced staff!
I’ll keep going back!
I like buying local. I got good service on a brass instrument repair. ( I didn’t try to use a pick )
Great shop for band instruments as well as player instruments.
Good selection of accessories
I just went in to get son a guitar and then guy in dreads is supposedly the manager and it was an issue for him to even help us. I asked to see his manager and he lied and said he wasnt in. And then he told me to leave. Do not go to this store. Go somewhere where they want your business.
Rude! Told them I was just looking around at the moment and was laughed at…. shameful behavior by talentless jokes!
Probably the rudest treatment I’ve ever gotten from the owners of a store.
If you need to get repairs or looking for new instruments. Go online or guitar center. Please don’t waste your time here. They have no clue how to treat customers.
Also: They don’t have any good equipment for musicians actually wanting to play. If you want some cheap guitars or any other instruments. You wont finde any there worth buying. And they also don’t have any high value gear. Things are over-priced, damaged, and/or not what they tell you it is. The return policy also has many flaws. Don’t come here to try out things. Come here if you want to waste some money and buy cheap quality gear.

Trying to sell second hand items for brand new prices. I love shopping thrift stores! But I don’t plan on visiting this one again. Ilk go back to Athens first.
They have a good selection of products but staff is RUDE. I’d rather pay double some where else
sales bargin stuff for new prices sometimes more than what they cost new..
