Evan is a very knowledgeable amp technician. My 1974 Princeton Reverb had been down for over 30 years
I had no hope of it ever working right. Then one day I came across Renberg Amp Repair. Remembering my amp, I called Evan and he took on the project. A week later he not only brought my ’74 amp back but it sounds better than ever! Thanks very much Evan Renberg and I highly recommend your service.
I brought my Marshall DSL 40 Combo Amp for maintenance and Evan brought her back to life, spruced up and ready to Rock. I wont go anywhere else to have my gear worked on, great price and professional.
After coming across Evan and Renberg Amp repair, I sent my 50’s Fender Champ over. It was sorely in need of some serious attention. I knew it could be better, but I had no clue just how much potential was in that little box. Evan returned to me an amp that was far better than my already high expectations. Over the past couple years I have had Evan work on my Hiwatt Custom 50, Soldano Asteroverb, Marshall Plexi, as well as a very unique 1966 Tel-Ray oil can delay. I’ve been happy every time. Evan is polite, quick to respond, and really knows his stuff. If I could give him 10 stars I would. Additionally, for what it’s worth, I live in Washington, have multiple amp repair shops in my town, and will continue to pay the shipping costs to have Evan work on my amps. Gladly.
They can’t fix or work with line 6 amps.
2. Morey’s Music Store Inc
Address: 4834 Woodruff Ave #576, Lakewood, CA 90713 , Hawaiian Gardens , California , United States
So first of all it is cheap. Also they have a variety of instruments. And if you need things tuned they will to it for you for free!
Wide selection of instruments & accessories, really helpful an polite staff
Good attention
Looks like a lot of changes in the store. For Good.
Good music store little pricey
Not knowledgeable about guitars!! They use to be great.
I don’t know what to say about this place but it’s been one of the worst places I’ve ever been to and the prices are very high plus they treat you very rude
I will never shop there again. This morning 12/26/18, I went to the store hoping to buy a new cello case. I entered the store and walked to the back of the store to look around. Not one worker even tried to assist me. After looking at the cello cases, I walked toward the front of the store to look at different violin/cello method books because I play and teach both instruments. During that time, a few customers walked in and the workers quickly greeted and assisted them. This is about the third time this has happened to me. I will never shop there or refer any of my students to shop there. I will just have to purchase their supplies elsewhere and have my students purchase the products from me. I will also go online and purchase my cello case elsewhere. That’s too bad because they really do ha e nice, quality products.
3. Bellflower Music Center
Address: 17125 Bellflower Blvd, Bellflower, CA 90706 , Hawaiian Gardens , California , United States
To be honest I was a tag along. What I observed was a lot of quality instruments and sound equipment. The owners & employee were very approachable and good customer service especially for taking ownership of our request by helping us look for the items needed. Which was a new wireless microphone for church.
Although random trip would be back as needed for church equipment. As well as, recommend giving them a chance for all your music equipment needs.
Also to note I believe they also give music lessons for playing a instruments.
Good instruments
I enjoyed walking into this place. I had to get my guitar cords fixed and little did I know they offered classes, which we might take.. the environment was amazing. I will return
Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Great selection of instruments and accessories. They offer instruction for several instruments and singing lessons.
Very helpful people
Helpful staff
Little hole in the wall
I rented a pretty old tenor sax from Bellflower Music back in August for my daughter, who started on a HS marching band. I signed an agreement, purchased insurance and pre-paid for 3 months. Yesterday, I went to return the sax as the director of music and the sectional leader all complained about the sax that is out of tune and the buttons are not working. In my defense I didnt want to purchase an instrument right of the bet because I wanted to see if my daughter continues to show interest and if she is committed to marching band. As the rental was coming to an expiration on the 19th of October it was time to return the instrument back to Bellflower and purchase a good working sax. We found an excellent but used Chateau at Long Beach Woodwinds and they helped us there compare between different saxes by trying them out. The feel, the tone, the buttons…no comparison to the Conn we rented from Bellflower. I understand you rent out instruments to many people, but take the time to make adjustments and test them before renting them out. I was surprised that no testing was done when we rented the sax but when I returned it yesterday they were testing everything. No comments were done on the contract when we rented the sax in regards to the condition but they put replacement cost for the sax equal to a brand new one. In addition, they now wanted me to return a strap that they never gave us. The guy insisted the sax had a strap but we neither got one, neither the accessories issued were noted on the contract. However, he told me I can come back another day and discuss with the manager. There was no way I was going to drive 1 hour round trip to discuss a missing strap and get charged for another month of rental. He refused to accept the rental back without me paying for a strap. I saw the bin with the straps and it says $5 for a generic strap I said here let me pay you for a strap and get out. He pulls a brand new Yamaha strap and demands I pay for a brand new branded strap. Let me reephasize… no strap was given to us, it is an used instrument…heavily used…with no list detailing accessories on the contract, with an insurance purchased for missing and broken parts…and now I was expected to pay for a brand new Yamaha strap, not the generic kind. I told him I am not paying for a brand new Yamaha strap to which he again said he wont take the rental back. He ended up giving me a discount on the Yamaha strap so we can close out the issue. Bottom line for me, as far as their instrument rental services go, is do not rent from Bellflower. Go to a place that lets you test the instruments, provides a guidance on what you need, especially as a beginner, and do not give you some super old untested instrument and then demand you pay for an accessory that they never gave you. I am not for $5 but for the whole service which seems to be concentrated on renting out malfunctioning and not tested instruments and then skimming more money by trying to say something is missing or broken. The guy was testing the instrument for so long trying to find something but as soon as I mentioned that we have insurance I kid you not he said “no, everyting is fine”. Thank God I purchased that insurance. I am so confident if I didnt he would have found millions of things wrong with the instrument, an old, beat up and u tested instrument….
By phone, they give you a price, and when you get it, you raise it before taxes, they do not respect the price given. I will not go back to this place.
4. Sam Ash Music Stores
Address: 14200 Beach Blvd, Westminster, CA 92683 , Hawaiian Gardens , California , United States
We bought a Yamaha piano. And the sale person was very professional and helpful
The associate on the phone helped me find a store with the bass pedals I was inquiring about. Plus contacted the manager to let them know to set aside one for me. I was helped right away and was able to try out darkglass pedal that I came for before purchasing item.
Got a great deal on a Les Paul at Sam’s. Friendly helpful staff. Will be back for my next GAS fix
Fast, easy, friendly. Wish they carried a variety of power tubes and pre amp tubes.
Good info. , reasonable prices, what else could you want
Sam Ash is a bit expensive and they didnt have what I needed in stock. The service was good, but I would have to order my product from Sam Ash and wait 3-7 days for delivery. Amazon was $20 cheaper and with prime, I get next day delivery.
Dark energy in that place. Spooky to say the least…
The ever-shrinking Sam Ash no longer has the selection it used to have. And most of it is now cheap Chinese junk. And their online operation is a complete disaster. They double-charged me for the same product and then I had to get angry for them to promise they’d remove the charges. Which they haven’t done yet, even though they lied to me, claiming they were about to do it. Horrible business. They lost a VERY good customer forever.
Same as every big chain music store arrogant wanna be rock star salesman and crappy Chinese guitars

Beautiful!
Me fascina me encanta hawaiian gardens California.
great pho soup
本人覺得這地方沒什麼好逛的
Has all types of shops and food experiences.
the .99 cents store sells beer for $1.99 (6 pack) and I also get the sunday paper for .99 instead of 4 dollars.
Too dark at night. Needs more lighting
Went to Metro PCS, broke my smart ride plug in component and they would not give any kind of deal on a new one. Been a customer for 3 years, never asked for any kind of upgrade.
Meh, I’ve seen better.
No hot ladies shop there for sure.
6. Hanmi Piano Yamaha Authorized Dealer OC/LA
Address: 7942 Garden Grove Blvd, Garden Grove, CA 92841 , Hawaiian Gardens , California , United States
I bought my digital piano Yamaha YDP-162R at Hanmi and I’m very happy with my purchase. First impression if the store is the inside is very nice with a wide variety of piano selections from acoustic to digital. The manager Julia is very friendly and helpful who greeted me with a very welcoming attitude. She showed me around and helped me find the best piano for my budget. She also let me test playing the pianos that I like so I can have an idea of how they feel and sound. She is very easy to work with ended up giving me a good deal on the piano that purchased. Quick and easy no hassles. I don’t live too far from the store so they offered me free delivery to my place as well. The lady delivered it, helped me carry the big heavy box in the house and even showed me how to put the pieces together to make sure I can do it myself without making mistakes. The Yamaha YDP-162 plays and sounds great for the price that it is. It has a closer feel and sound to that of an acoustic piano. I am a very picky person when it comes down to the realistic feel of the instrument and I am happy with the quality that I get for the price I pay. I would totally recommend Hanmi piano to anyone who is looking for a place to get a great piano with a reasonable price and with friendly staff members. Overall, I am highly satisfied with the purchase and definitely come back in the future when I eventually save up enough to upgrade to a nicer piano. Thank you Hanmi!!!
I had a great experience purchasing a piano at hanmi piano. They had good amount of selection and they went above and beyond to find a piano to fit the needs. I would recommend anyone that is looking to purchase a piano to check out this location
Worst customer service ever, never come to this place ever again!
7. Golden State Pawn and Guitars
Address: 2743 W Lincoln Ave, Anaheim, CA 92801 , Hawaiian Gardens , California , United States
Called around to check other pawn shops in my area. No answer, so I left a message on Yelp for this shop. I received a response some time later and went in the following day. The guy at the counter was very helpful, wasn’t expecting to make as much as I did. Prices were very fair I was quite taken a back. Not once I felt pressured with the options I was given. First time selling at a pawn shop and was a smooth process. Definitely will be back if I need to sell or take out a loan. My new to to shop for future business needs.
Really nice store, owner knows his business. Items interesting just like a small music store. A must see as a Pawn Shop in this area. Compared to others in Anaheim, I prefer to visit his again and again.
Bobby is awesome owner – A man of his word and no gimmicks or BS – Best Shop I have been in – Fair pricing , Clean , Attentive, Professional – Tell your friends

Nice, clean store with well stocked shelves and friendly service. Also, not as crowded as most of the other locations.
What an experience, huge isles, great speedy service. Lots and lots of range in products
Black Friday sales are amazing
tttt
Staff was very friendly and helpful
Best walmart in long beach.
Giving 1 star since I have to give something, but would give negative if I could. Terrible service. Waited 20 min for someone to come unlock product in the cosmetic area after pressing their call button and having someone page someone to help. Finally decided to just leave since I guess they didn’t want to sell anything today.
Messed up my tires.
Not a fan.

10. Guitar Center
Address: 20 City Blvd W Suite 907D, Orange, CA 92868 , Hawaiian Gardens , California , United States
Went in to look at keyboards. They hassled me about having a soda in my hand and how I was wearing my mask. I probably won’t return, also because I can find a better selection and prices.
Went inside to look around. Very nice place.
I was quite disappointed with this store. Not much of bass nor guitar amplification.
Bad. Customer service try calling 3 times no one answer
Great service and people

Absolutely 100% the best mechanics. Reasonable prices. Really good honest people. Great atmosphere very welcoming. Shout out to yu junior your awesome….:)
My Ford Explorer had a rattling bad catalytic converter and the guys at Lou’s fixed it. They did a great job. Friendly, courteous, work was done quickly and expertly and for a fair and reasonable price. What more could you want? Thanks, Junior! It was a pleasure visiting your shop.
In HAWAIIAN GARDENS
Great service
Muy atentos al publico
Bad customer service, long wait time.
I Dont like to bad mouth businesses so I won’t just wouldn’t recommend them … lazy is an understatement
Didn’t back work. Said part was repairable (Radiator)and when repair failed gave run around. Did do a good job on prior exhaust work that’s why two stars. Stay away on anything else. Never returns phone calls. Thief.
13. Hawaiian Gardens
Address: California , Hawaiian Gardens , California , United States
Love these guys. Best cover band I’ve ever seen. I go out of my way to see them play in Orange County and I live in Scottsdale, AZ. I recommend attending a show at a smaller venue. It’s a total blast. You haven’t lived until you see these guys.
This band is amazing, it’s like seeing all of the original acts in their prime. The best 80s cover band I have ever seen and heard. They are an awesome legitimate band in their own right that plays all the best 80s songs. Stunning vocals, high energy, perfect instrumentation. So entertaining and fun to watch, you are in for a real treat if you can catch their show!
We had A BLAST! Thank You for a Rock’n Good Time Guys! We can’t wait to see you again!
A comment for music lovers: Angie and I have seen so many Bands, our friends play in so many Bands….I’ve got to tell you, Flashback is by far one of the Best Cover Bands in California, not just Orange County. Usually there are a few strong members in a band but with Flashback, every member is a Hyper Talented Musician (without the attitude). They are a total pleasure to be with and besides putting on a great show consistently…They are FUN! We’re happy to call ourselves “Groupies” lol.
If you haven’t seen them play, you owe it to yourself to check this great band out. I promise you won’t be disappointed. Oh, and don’t be surprised when you start calling yourself a Flashback Heart Attack Groupie, these guys are really good.
16. Nothing But A Nightmare
Address: 12862 Joy St d, Garden Grove, CA 92840 , Hawaiian Gardens , California , United States
Yeah!! They were having BOGO 50% OFF your 2nd pair. Their memory foam insole tennis shoes start at $30 and feel amazing. I normally wear a ladies size 6 but in Sketchers I was a 6.5. Great selection and the staff was very helpful.
Had to return shoes for my wife. Julie and Brian we’re great! My wife got her shoes and they ended up being less and she got the discount. I had just bought my shoes at a different sketcher’s and realized the bottoms we’re dirty. So I was looking to exchange them and Brian recommended a lighter composite shoe. Very comfortable! Thanks for the tip Brian.
Not so discounted factory store
I love the option of ordering online & picking up here. Due to covid it’s a safe way to buy & curbside pick up.
Great Selection and good deals!
Not outlet prices very expensive
They didn’t have a size 11 of the shoes I wanted
Disappointed….no display of the shoes i was looking for considering it’s an OUTLET….:(
