5. Portman’s Music Superstore
Address: 3946 Washington Rd, Augusta, GA 30907 , Hephzibah , Georgia , United States
Great place to shop for all things music related with highly-qualified staff.
I come here all the time, they’ve got a decent selection of things and the staff is all super friendly and helpful. I’d love to see them with a larger live sound area once they move into the new location.
Excellent selection of instruments. Lesson instructors are outstanding. Prices are competitive.
Good customer service, but the prices are whack. Probably the norm for these smaller music shops
I was told over the phone that they had in-store repair for band instruments but when I brought my oboe in, they told me it had to be shipped to their primary shop out of town and it would be a couple week turn around. They could have told me that over the phone and saved me the trip since it was an emergency repair.
All in your face wouldn’t let us look around and in a hurry to get us out
I went in to buy a guitar. I wanted an American Stratocaster. They had a very small inventory, and the few that I might have been interested in were hung too high to get a good look at. The salesperson finally asked if I wanted him to get one down, but since he needed a stool to reach them I said no. I didn’t want someone to have to climb up and down for each instrument I would like to hold. I left without looking at any guitars. This was the Augusta store. The Savannah store is much better. The instruments are more accessible there. I bought a Gibson acoustic there two years ago. I bought a Fender American professional Strat from another store two days after my visit to Portman’s Augusta store.

Awesome service, great selection and more cool stuff every time I go in.
It was outstanding. People who work there are very helpful. CHECK IT OUT!
Im layed up for a few days recovering from an ankle injury and wanted to talk to some guys about getting back into music as I’ve played my whole life but never really got into it. Also would like a new job doing something musical. This was the only store who took the time to listen to me and even point me in a direction of a job in the industry as they are at full capacity atm. Next time a pop a string or blow a tube, I’ll gladly spend my money here.
Good people very helpful
Mike always seems 2 have some edifying and more times than ñotu leave feeling like u⁷u7
Just a poor experience in my visit. Not worth the explanation.
7. Jays Music
Address: 3110 Washington Rd Suite B, Augusta, GA 30907 , Hephzibah , Georgia , United States
Very friendly staff and great selection of musical instruments.
Very knowledgeable on all the equipment and instruments always backs up the sale with great service
Met Vera yesterday. What a sweet kind lady. Place is very hard to find especially way people drive on Washington road. But it is right next to where checkers is sndPiccadilly’s was. Store looked not quite moved in yet but Vera, what later found our was an owner, really made all of those distractions go away. Please find time to go see these wonderful people before we lose another brick and mortar shipping experience
It’s the same Jays in a new location. They have a nice selection of gear, but be ready for the owners to be on you like hawks to buy something asap.
Staff the older gentlemen is not the friendliest and the woman is not too knowledgeable on their products. New location is cleaner than the old one but still stock remains on shelves for a long time and not upkept. A few guitars i played were not tended to. Dead strings and grimey fretboards. Not good
Not shoppable, no defined path. Much of the stock is in cardboard boxes skewed across the store. The owner pays no attention to the customers. Most products have no price labeled on them, but you can’t get the owner’s attention long enough to ask the prices.
I placed an item on layaway and every time I went to make a payment the store was closed. When I requested a refund I was told that they don’t give refunds. I recommend that NO ONE does business with this place. They are both prejudice and scammers!!!
8. Music & Arts
Address: 3830 Washington Rd Ste 33, Augusta, GA 30907 , Hephzibah , Georgia , United States
Very good customer service. Very knowledgeable about everything. Dan was very helpful
Fantastic music store! Great selection and very helpful staff. Bought a Bass, Bass Amp, Strings, Strap, case, cable for about $500!
I was extremely happy with my experience and value on purchase!
Plus they do military discount!
I highly recommend this store for any music gear you may need!
This is our favorite store in Augusta. My son loves to visit and look around while we pick up a new set of drumsticks or get the guitars re-strung. The staff greets us by name at this point and we feel so welcome there. We have tried other big name music stores in the area but none of them come close to the service we get at Music & Arts.
Very helpfu, knowledgeable, professional staff
Local staff is absolutely fabulous!
Kind and helpful each time I’ve visited. They have gone above and beyond to help us with purchases questions and repairs.
BUT, this is a big nationwide company so when it comes to billing questions or issues you have to call thier customer service line and that is always a big hassle in my experience. You can’t update cards and such online, the wait time to speak to anyone has always been 30+ minutes for me and they often give inaccurate information on pricing and/or billing dates.
Honestly, if it wasn’t for the employees in the actual store being so awesome I’d just go through a different company for my child’s band rental, but they really are that good that I’m willing to overlook the corporate problems
9. Redbox
Address: 1718 Brown Rd, Hephzibah, GA 30815 , Hephzibah , Georgia , United States
YESSSS VERY GOOD THEY FIXED MY INSTRUMENT SEVERAL TIMES WITHOUT ERROR
I think this store is great. They a average and good selection of string and winds instruments at a cheaper price than other music stores. If you want to buy string instruments go to Kirkwood. Also Kirkwood has lower prices for wind instruments than portmans and they have professional repairs.
This is a musical palace! The place has everything from music lessons to instrument repair items. The music lessons are one on one for a very affordable price. Instructor is very knowledgeable and works with all levels of student experience and skill set.
Very helpful staff. Excellent choices for piano teaching books.
Parents of band students/ Renters BEWARE.. still being charged for a bell kit returned in May of 2022! Customer Service Rep states serial number off by ONE digit (ie. 1234567 vs. 1234467) on ONE piece of the instrument and refuses to “accept it” even though they have had the complete kit (confirmed with CSR) in their possession since May. Instrument was sent to my child’s school (where it remained for the duration of the school year) therefore I was not able to, nor was I instructed to, verify serial numbers on all pieces of the bell kit rental. I can only assume it was issued to him this way but honestly, I don’t know.. The customer service here leaves a lot to be desired and one gentleman is just outright rude. I can’t seem to get this issue resolved despite numerous attempts.. no callbacks when promised etc.. etc.. They certainly do not hesitate to take my money every month though, albeit the instrument is no longer in my possession.
*Would still greatly appreciate kirkwood’s attention to this matter. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you decide to be of assistance in resolving this issue. Thank you!
Gentlemen upfront extremely nice(thank you for your help and knowledge). I explained the situation and since my employment seemed sketchy I understood. I agreed to do the credit check which is not a soft inquiry it is a hard inquiry which stays on your credit for 2 years and deducts 5 points. But still trying to explain very nicely my situation(never vulgar or raised my voice) the heavy man in back said and I quote “I am not trying to get verbal with you and threaten you in front of your son”. Anyone who has had their identity stolen understands. But I do not appreciate being threatened.
I was lied to… basically an older woman who worked for the store and no longer there stated that after I returned my rental a portion of my monthly fee would be refunded or i could rent another instrument… lies… all lies… A younger gentleman who now works in the store did not want to keep the obligation based on the contract.. PLEASE READ YOUR CONTRACTS.. DO NOT BELIEVE WHAT OTHER PEOPLE ARE SAYING IF YOU DON’T KNOW … PLEASE READ YOUR CONTRACTS…

The clerk could be a lot nicer in the store could be cleaner
Very clean store and friendly, courteous staff!
Very convenient
Ok
It’s clean and update with their inventory.
Nice place to shop
The new manger is very rude and seems like she just hates life. Makes a very uncomfortable atmosphere.
I sent my wife in to purchase me a pack of Marlboro 100’s in the box. The cashier pulled out a box that had black across the top. My wife asked her if the packaging had been changed because “his pack is red.” She assured my wife that the pack was correct. My wife came out to the car and I told her it was wrong and we took the pack back inside to exchange them. The clerk refused to exchange them and said “here we go. ” I ended up without a pack of cigarettes AND without my money back and she basically called my wife a liar. The manager stood there and offered NO solution at all. The drawer better be over the cost of a pack of cigarettes. This store has lost a loyal customer that spends between $100-200 every month. I will take my business to Family Dollar, Pine Hill. and Food Lion. At least they’re honest and won’t steal my money from me. This isn’t the first time I’ve had a problem with this store. They’re notorious for locking up 15 or more minutes early when they have people pulling up in the parking lot. Then they pick and choose who they want to let in. I don’t normally complain but this is wrong and I don’t take kindly to being called a liar and losing money.
Horrible store! The worst in all of Augusta! The manager a lady is very rude and hateful! Racist and follows you around the store and makes you so uncomfortable you have to leave! She has refused some of my family service before !! She has ever snatched items out my hand before and told me I could not purchase them! Some thing needs to be done about this woman. I will not go back into this store until they get a new manger and she no lon get works there! It’s more than a hand full of people saying these things about here ask everyone in the area! She will never disrespect me and my kid again not my family! I hope she is fired because she obvisouly doesn’t need a job or Hayes the one she does have if she comes to work to treat people horrible! Corporate please take action!!! Would rate 0 if I could ! There always carts all through the isles and you can never even get through the store!

Address: 2430A Patiller Rd, Hephzibah, GA 30815 , Hephzibah , Georgia , United States
The owners are very courteous and accommodating to customer. They have a great selection of games and movies which I like the most about Toby’s.
Very friendly and they have a firework stand also come celebrate
Very rude!
Tried to sell a piano through this business. The condescending boomer argued with me that my keys weren’t weighted, even though a simple search online, or the instruction manual in my hands at the time would challenge his expertise. Rather than telling me how much I was hoping to sell it for was unreasonable, he just hung up on me instead. I would have gladly been talked down to something more reasonable for him had he made any effort to be professional, because I really just need to get rid of it and I told him I didn’t know how much to sell it for (I was practically giving him the opportunity to tell me how much he’d pay, which we probably would have gotten to had he not hung up on me)
I’d suggest wasting the gas to drive to Augusta if you want to receive decent service.
The owner was such a jerk that I kept the money I had been saving for an acoustic guitar and just left the store. I really wanted that guitar too! He was treating all of his customers like garbage. Not sure how long he’s been there but can’t believe he’s still open with that kind of customer service. Got the guitar from a music shop on Broad St. in Augusta GA for $40 cheaper??? No not only is a nasty person he is selling guitars for $40 over retail. Horrible!

Address: 140 Greiner Cir, Hephzibah, GA 30815 , Hephzibah , Georgia , United States
Nice big store, but lazy stocking. Store looks nasty, very cluttered and stock dollies everywhere just sitting and blocking isles.
If you’re looking up reviews for Dollar General you need some serious help. It’s Dollar General. They’re everywhere, and they’re all the same.
I’ve never walked into a DG and felt welcomed. The employees always seem so unhappy and run from work. The stores are always a mess you’re lucky if you can get a buggy around in them. Although they are convenient sometimes I a rather drive a lil futher to a better store
This is the worst Dollar General ever they always have something wrong with the charge card machine. Today they were only taking CASH.The store is always in a mess and the people just act like they don’t care.The out side has trash all over parking lot no one cleans they stand in there and talk to each other.
Always out of the basic things for days or weeks sometimes
I’m sure a family dollar will be near soon
15. AAA Gun & Pawn Brokers
Address: 2760 Tobacco Rd A, Hephzibah, GA 30815 , Hephzibah , Georgia , United States
I had just gone in to check about a weapons transfer from another store. I explained what it was that I wanted to transfer and was told they had one in stock. The price was very close to what I was going to pay with shipping and transfer fee, so I purchased the item. Excellent service and background check went thru perfectly. The staff was very helpful and made sure I was taken care of properly. I will shop here again.
They were very Professional & Helpful. I appreciated the Service. 5 Star
We had a pleasant experience with your staff very professional and friendly and we were treated with respect we had and will continue to recommend your business to co workers and friends
This has been my ” go to” for very many years. When I need a little loan to get through until payday, I can always count on them. If In a pinch, I know they got me! They have always been kind and respectful!!! The staff has always been very nice, funny and down to earth cool people. I’ve never had a bad experience here. Thank you AAA!
I love being in the presents of the people that work at AA Gun & pawn… I have bought a couple of firearms from them and prices are great and unbeatable. The Process is quick and fast (if you don’t get delayed lol) They can also help with fixing a damaged firearm. Thanks AA Gun & pawn ✌️
Do not waste your time
The sales person charged me for a gun before running background check. It came back denied. After, being denied the owner tried to charge me 10% and for taxes for a gun that he did not technically sale!! i never took possession of the gun!!
Please note that it is against the law to charge/sale a gun before running a background check! He does not care about the law and Richmond County police department seems to think its ok to let him to continue to rip off citizens. They’re their friends, I saw it first hand when I called the police! This is an elaborate scheme to rip off people for gun sales! Please note that the areas is a prominently black neighborhood. Stay awoke people!!
I want ALL of my money and I want everyone to know my experience with AAA Pawn Shop on Tobacco Road!!!
Very bad experience with this business , paid for a product couldn’t receive and when trying to get my refund didn’t wanna give my money back , fraud do not pay before u receive your product , customer service VERY BAD , try to talk any kind of way to you , I highly don’t recommend
16. The Musical Express
Address: 231 Furys Ferry Rd #216, Augusta, GA 30907 , Hephzibah , Georgia , United States
The Musical Express is a wonderful place for students to learn to play piano. The instructors are incredibly energetic, kind, and truly enjoy teaching their students the love of music. If you are looking for a piano studio for your child, then look no further. The Musical Express is the best!!!
This place is wonderful. My boys have learned so much and now think piano is fun thanks to Miss Temeka and Miss Rebekah.
My children have taken piano, chorus, and summer camp at the musical express. I am amazed at how well my children play piano. They are apart of Georgia Piano Guild, take piano testing and perform in recitals. Ms. Tameka is an excellent piano and chorus instructor. They can not only play but also read music. The skills from music lessons have helped them with reading, math, eye hand coordination, sports, and patience. Highly recommend. This is a must.
17. Turner’s Keyboards
Address: 2358 Washington Rd, Augusta, GA 30904 , Hephzibah , Georgia , United States
Turner’s did an excellent job with our piano move. It was easy to work with the scheduler, the fee was well worth it as the have professionals doing the move and paying online was very easy. The movers were pleasant and professional and I was kept informed about the schedule and progress via text messages. I would definitely recommend them.
Very professional inspection of my piano by technician. Looking forward to the same care in terms of the final repair
Great service. Quick, fair quote. Movers were professional, efficient, kind, and clean. Would use again and suggest to anyone.
Good family business. Been in Augusta along time.
Friendly.
My visit was very insightful and productive
You want pushy sales go here
18. Berkshire Guitars
Address: 428 5th St, Augusta, GA 30901 , Hephzibah , Georgia , United States
Fantastic Luthier. Tidy Work. Friendly Staff. Quick turnaround. I would recommend them for any repair/maintenance for guitars and basses.
Highly recommended for acoustic and electric guitar lutherie. I have used Berkshire 3x over past 7 years. Chris his staff are knowledgeable, professional, prompt, and skilled. Final charges match estimates. Trust their advice. Repairs have been invisible; set-ups & installs just as spec’d. Thank you.
Only true luthier in town. Great service, fair prices. Don’t take your stringed instrument anywhere else
Nice customer service just not what I needed.
Nice ladies working the front counter- both seemed to have some knowledge under the belt, and the little shop is pretty darn cool. They also stocked most of the parts I would have needed to update a couple guitars I took in. But I’m a bit sceptical as to whether or not they really performed the inspections on my guitars, bottom line is one visibly needs a nut replacement and the other a truss-rod and bridge/saddle adjustment which I was prepared to drop some serious cash having it done professionally. I would recommend the staff get a proper mat and neck support onto your front counter for customers to rest a guitar on when leaving them with y’all, and be careful not to graze the glass or counter edge with a customer guitar. I say all this to be helpful from my 25+ years of experience- this is exactly the kind of place I want to exceed, be successful, and take my money.
They do good work at reasonable prices.
Sorta disappointing. No new guitars, limited selection and could not even see luthiers work. Lady working register was really sweet and personable.
I gave them my amp to be fixed and when I got it back they said everything was working fine, but the problem got worse. I took it back again and they said they couldn’t find anything wrong with it so they gave it back. Yet the issue didn’t go away and then it just died so it’s unusable. The staff was very nice and I’m all for small businesses, but this one didn’t meet any expectations.
Berkshire performed a complete fret replacement for me. They did not inquire about what frets I preferred or what type of action I played with…my fault for not informing them regardless of if they asked. When I picked up the guitar, I inquired about some “dead” frets and the “luthier” basically told me I didn’t know what I was talking about. When I asked to have it fixed, he told me it was a minor shim and it was good. I have been playing the guitar now for a couple weeks and I cannot get the guitar to play without it fretting out 12th fret and above. I finally removed the neck to see if maybe the shim was the issue, but to my surprise there was no shim in the neck pocket. So…not only did the “luthier” talk down to me, he blatantly lied to me about the work he performed hoping that I do not know any better. So now…I am stuck having to pay another tech to perform work I have already paid once to have completed. Needless to say, I will not be going back to Berkshire and do not recommend the shop to anyone. I can accept mistakes and having to remedy problems…what I cannot accept is a business that lacks integrity.
