Parking is always plentiful. Will be nice once the construction is done and the new publix entrance to the store is complete. They have transitioned it nicely though.

Best deals you want to get the best deals go to Jimmy’s got any kind of guitar you won’t great service in there
They gave me a great deal on a cool old bass!
Sorry….I was next door making a donation to the “Going to the Dogs” thrift store…the owner had two dogs from Cross Pass Pet Rescue…..Very nice shop with lots of quality 2nd hand boutique items.
Downtown location
Selection look ok but the owner is not very friendly and seemed in a rush to get either a sale or us out of there.
As far a I know, buying a new guitar takes time and testing how each one sounds before the purchase. The owner did not offer to test any guitar and when asked he was very reluctant. So, out we were to never go back.
I felt like I was bothering the owner because I was interested in guitars under $500……..
I used to like this place but none of the employees or customers are wearing masks. Pretty messed up to wilfully endanger the community but that’s Auburndale for you.
Called in about a violin and the guy who answered the phone gave some wrong information. He was certain he was giving me the correct information but he was wrong. Do not recommend for any questions regarding an old violin.
The studio has good quality equipment and friendly staff!
I love Her Boss Studio. It’s a great environment to make slappas. As a artist myself you gotta go with Greg. He is positive. He is Hands on but not to smothering allows you to feel at your most creative when recording. Real cool Dude
Love it
Good quality and good customer service will be back soon for sure
Not clean.
Lady on the phone is straight up rude and money hungry do not want to have anything to do with this studio.
9. PolkHub Recording Studio
Address: 125 M.L.K. Blvd NW, Winter Haven, FL 33881 , Inwood , Florida , United States
THE BEST STUDIO AND ENGINEERS IN POLK COUNTY GET IN TUNE SMOOTH PROCESS AND CUSTOMER SERVICE
Producers do more talking than actually mixing your tracks & focusing on you (The Client) at hand. & they let to many people come in out your sessions talking loud, smoking & over crowding the spot.
10. Carlton Music Center
Address: 1902 Harden Blvd, Lakeland, FL 33803 , Inwood , Florida , United States
Price was a little more than I wanted to pay, but the selection is great.
Fast and friendly service
Went in there to buy a drum head because Guitar Center wasn’t open yet or I’d certainly have went there instead. EVERYTIME I’m in this store I get watched and questioned like I’m going to steal something. It’s a very uncomfortable environment. No other customer was in there yet, and as soon as I walk in, they’re all stopping what they’re doing and looking at me asking if I needed help, and I said “I’m just getting a drum head…thank you.”, and I wasn’t looking for 2 minutes, and heard another employee say “everything okay over there?”….YES GEEZ!!!! Can someone take a few minutes and decide what product they want!? Just because you’re looking doesn’t mean you’re plotting a GD theft! It’s a $20 drum head! Gimme a friggin’ break! And ya know…much to their surprise…I PAID FOR IT! Guitar Center sucks too, but at least they give you freedom to comfortably browse at inventory without being asked what you’re doing. There’s no excuse for that behavior. Innocent until proven guilty….not in that place, it’s guilty until they see otherwise. From now on, I’ll wait for Guitar Center to open. I won’t spend another dime in Carlton until they get the FBI…I mean, their employees under control…
Their sales associates have the worst customer service I’ve ever seen.
Went here to rent an instrument for my son…girl asked us to fill out application they want to know not just who you are and account info but employer name and number as well as spouse name number and a friend or nearest relative. I have never had to give the name of a friend or relative to buy a car or even a house….its an instrument…after giving them all that info the girl was rude I asked for manager he wasn’t any nicer and still question us about employment why I do not know both me and my husband are employed I just started pulling out my DL, bank card CWP….I mean what in the world…its a $1300 instrument!
11. Music & Games Inc
Address: 1073 34th St NW, Winter Haven, FL 33881 , Inwood , Florida , United States
Very friendly, helpful & knowledgeable. I highly recommend doing business with them.
The claws on the games do not move and when they do most of the time the things have a very weak grip. I am through with this co and their claw machines.

Address: 420 Avenue I SE, Winter Haven, FL 33880 , Inwood , Florida , United States
Great place to shop best prices on gold jewelry , watches and lots of other high demand items no hassle environment very curtious and polite and helpful staff can’t go wrong
Friendly staff, have bought several pieces of jewelry there. Had an issue with a ring purchased, they stood behind it and made it right. Will always shop there. Best gold and silver prices in town.
I drove all the way from Tampa to shop with mason and rod… what a great experience. They listened to me babble, and also answered all my questions… I saw something on their Instagram and by the time I got there Rod went to the back and found their last one. Way to go the extra mile !!!
A little overpriced, but they do negotiate a bit, so I cannot complain. More tools than you can fit in your truck.
I have bought and sold a few items here.
Overall, I’m happy with the end results.
I usually stop here first when on the market for a tool or something else. If they don’t have it wait a day or two.
Nice large place with some antique items. They are open to negotiate with some items. Friendly.
I tried to take something there to sell and they only wanted to give me 10% of the value of it and then they checked it out to see if it work but they failed to turn it on then claimed that it didn’t work I found these people rude and a bunch of jerks
Purchased a Trolling Motor here for 300 bucks. Took it home hooked it up and it didn’t work. This was on a Saturday , their closed on Sunday so I had to wait until Monday to return. The lady wouldn’t give me a refund, and kept pointing at the paper saying No refunds or exchanges. That she had a guy that can fix it “ No Thank you” not playing that game. So I basically just got robbed for 300 bucks. Crazy thing is I been buying stuff here for around 15 years. Just lost a customer. Avoid this place like covid-19. I can’t believe the experience I just got from a pawn shop I loved going to.
They have Rats in the storage units that will eat up your funiture!!!!!
15. Dugar & Family Studio’s
Address: 534 N Eagle Dr, Eagle Lake, FL 33839 , Inwood , Florida , United States
Amazing! Something for everyone! Plan to spend hours there is so much to see!
Nice antique store, many vendors, prices are comparable to others.
Great stuff
Big place but not all antiques
can’t rate. Very rudely pushed us back out the door insisting they’d closed 2 minutes ago even though it was 4:40. Not like it takes 20 minutes to comb a small antique shop. Rude women. Won’t give another try
Very rude I didn’t get 2 step inside and I had 3 people telling me I needed to put my.purse in a locker !!! Really can u just let me to get inside and shut the door. I can read the sign on the door and I didn’t have a problem until u treated me rude. I didn’t buy anything and won’t come back.
extremely rude and you can’t carry a purse inside.
17. Guitar Center
Address: 3165 US Hwy 98 N, Lakeland, FL 33805 , Inwood , Florida , United States
After research I went to the store to buy a recording unit. I spoke to Angel and we explained to me a bunch of different features on the units I was looking at, and guided me to what I needed within my budget. After getting home, I had an issue with the unit’s software and my computer. I took it back to the store, to try to get some help in the configuration and operation, everything was fine and they were super helpful. However, the unit still was not working, so I put a ticket to the manufacturer and they took forever to answer, I went back to the store on Saturday and Josh helped me troubleshoot a few other things and we discovered the software was not ready. The offered me a solution, and we put it in place. Unit now works, this is a save for ProSonus and StudioOne as if these guys wouldn’t been able to help me resolve the issue I would have put a couple of bad reviews on their Social Media site. However, the quick action of the Staff at Guitar Center in Lakeland, in particular Angel, Josh…and I can remember the name of the other Gentleman saved this from happening.
Super A+ / 5 Star Review for these guys at Guitar Center in Lakeland, FL
It’s a Guitar Center if your shop around there are always some good deals
Nice shops
Slightly above avarage as Guitar Centers go
Went to sell back my speaker cabinet I bought from guitar center originally right before Corona in literally perfect condition that they were still selling ar the same price of $650.00 and I expected to be low balled but they offered me $200.00 for it MAX… no thanks I’ll just use it as a coffee table before I sell it for $200.00. Even the store clerk was embarrassed and shocked as the number is auto generated. Hmu about my mark bass speakers, I’ll sell them at a much better price than guitar center.
I took my son to purchase a Taylor guitar today at the Lakeland store. I asked the associate if he could play it and she said she would be right back with the key. We waited for a long period and then she came back without the key. She said the manager did not have time to let him play the guitar. So that was $2500 sale they didn’t get today!! The sales person was great but the manager needs a different job!!
I would not recommend this store to anyone.
It’s alright if you just want to buy strings or accessories, but forget it if you want major work done…..
