I had guitar adjustments done. Work was done as promised & I’m very satisfied. I recommended a friend to take his guitar to be adjusted. He was very pleased with work done.
Very down to earth , knowledgeable, helpful. I highly recommend them for all audio needs
Needs updated music

Super friendly service, very clean place with lots of gear avaliable. Also, if you’re looking for a high quality custom acoustic guitar, this is the place to go!
I recently purchased a guitar from these’s folks off of Reverb, and they were sooooo friendly!
Great shopping experience! Quick fulfillment, thanks.
I just stumbled across you’re store in search of a few rare boutique pedals. Now that I’ve been to your site I know that’s exactly what you and your company are doing. You are the link to several boutique pedal manufactures from around the world. You get the stuff that normally won’t be found in a Sam Ash, Guitar Center, or Sweetwater. You’ve found a niche market that serves a special group of people who enjoy spending the extra money for that special pedal. Either special because they are rare to obtain, special because they are such works of art on the outside, yet internally command intense functionality and endurance which provides the end user with a sense of stoke and relief when they can dial in their tone to a magical sonic journey and take others on their ride.
I have put my name on several companies “wait lists” for pedals that I was interested. None of them called back saying my number had come up and I could now order the pedals requested. So to my surprise I was contacted by Cool Guitar Shop when three pedals I ordered, had infact arrived and asked me to see if I still wanted all three. I said YES! He sent me the confirmation and payment code to complete the transaction. I paid in full and the pedals were sent out the same day. Pedals arrived fast, packaged extremely well, and came with a small bag of picks. The pedals worked exactly as described and have already provided hours of tone shaping fun.
While playing with an acoustic of mine I grabbed one of the little orange alien picks that came with the pedal order. Well, for some reason I took a pretty big liking to these orange picks with your shop logo on them. The pick alone changed the sound of my acoustic guitar, making it a brighter and more articulated sound.
I enjoyed these picks so much I decided to place another order for your picks. But while I’m ordering picks I might as well order another pedal too, right? It is a great store with great customer service so I ordered a fuzz pedal for my rig after surfing through your store site which had excellent videos showing the capabilities of these pedals. This order was sent out the same day and arrived 3 days later. Everything there, everything working great.
I am 2 for 2 with Cool Guitar Shop and really enjoy purchasing from your platform. Keep up the great work!
This place is awesome. E-mailed them about a very hard to find pedal and within an hour I had one reserved for me no hassle. Best part? It was delivered to me in only 2 days! Highly recommend.
5. McKibben Music
Address: 1118 Monticello St SW, Covington, GA 30014 , Jasper County , Georgia , United States
This is a great music store. I do not live in the area but I will always gladly do business here whenever I can. Highly recommended for any musician.
Super nice and most informed.
I like that this is “mom and pop” shop run by a older couple. They are super friendly and love to talk. Very friendly place. I like that they have a couch, chairs, or a bench to sit on while you wait for your child’s lesson to finish. They do have a ceiling fan to help move the air, but it can get a little stuffy at times in the waiting area and I find myself wanting to go outside to get fresh air.
Wish they had more music products to buy, like more music books. I would much rather support a local business than have to order music online.
A convenient location for the Covington area. However, I’d prefer to visit the Conyers Music & Arts store. The staff at McKibben did not strike me as entirely friendly and unapproachable. Could have been a bad day but considering the lackluster item selection as well, I won’t be returning.
Website is out of date. No so called “cancellation” policy which is a big one. No make up visits unless the teacher is sick. Yeah. My son has asthma and allergies and was sick 2 times during a May. Texted with the teacher to set up make up time and was never told about the policy until my son called Mac, the owner, who thought my questions were funny and he laughed at me. He offered $25 back as May has 5 Tuesday’s and basically he gave me one missed class back refund. We’ll see. Honestly I don’t like the attitude of this owner and I certainly don’t like the lack of professionalism he has and the website also not being up to date. If u r going to have a website make sure ur policies are on it and the correct rates are as well. Won’t be going back either way. Keep your $25 I guess you need all that cancellation or missed time money for sick kids to run ur business.
Our loved piano teacher increased the fee so we thought we would try piano lessons here. Spoke several times to a lady on the phone whom encouraged us to “try” out a lesson. Never ever stating there is a $25 fee. I do not mind paying, but I did mind being surprised when leaving.
Upon arrival the older gentleman was SUPER sweet. That is so important to me. Very kind and nice man. It changed slightly when I was surprised I owed money, but that’s fine.
The piano instruction “room” is a very dingy, dark and TINY closet with an electric piano. I was expecting a real piano, not electric and it was very claustrophobic room.
We met with Rosa. At first she was ok. But she really has a persona of being annoyed about things. She suggested getting a notebook to write notes but we already had one with and she really, obviously, didn’t like our book . She did not instruct on posture or finger placement, I told my daughter, use point of finger, not the whole finger, sit up straight… i think thats 101 and should be imp. There were several instances where I felt she was just annoyed.When we left, she didn’t say anything like it was so nice to meet you, I look forward to working with you, have a wonderful evening, etc… she actually was annoyed about me asking fees for a partial month and rudely told me to speak with the front… since we are in the Oct already I was only curious about the monthly fee. She walked us halfway to the front, turned around and left… did not smile, wait for us to officially end the goodbye… I had actually said nice to meet you, thanks for your time, have a good evening to her back. Very very odd. That sealed it for me
*surprise fee
*closet of a room
*electric, not real, piano
*Rosa not very nice
*the entire place, even bathroom desperately needs renovation
We are happily taking our original piano teachers increased fee and looking forward to her excellent instruction in a beautiful room with a real piano.
Nice family business, but its just not for us. We wanted to try the other piano teachers and told yes we could. But… oh… they’re booked sweet gentlemen and I’m sure the other instructors are great. If I had known it was electric piano and that tiny room, I may not have even bothered. If it was listed somewhere, I obviously missed it. I hadn’t looked at the website. Just reviews and word of mouth.
asked if they had a ukulele and they didnt which was fine so we asked the guy to give us a call once they had them in stock we wrote down our number for them. Never received a call bought my ukulele some where else

7. Family Dollar
Address: 209 E Greene St, Monticello, GA 31064 , Jasper County , Georgia , United States
Excellent service from Loretha today. The employees are great at Family Dollar. They just need extra help especially on Friday and Saturdays
Good prices,friendly workers
Been going for years and can always expect the same thing. Over crowded with merchandise, 1 register open, and full of people chatting about their cousins or old high school teachers. Really hard to look around because someone is blocking the aisles or the Aisles being blocked off by clearanced or damaged product.
This was the filthiest Family Dollar I’ve ever been into. Didn’t see anybody working. Most of merchandise was on the floor. Just nasty I gave it one star because I couldn’t give it no stars! I wish now i had taken pictures.
8. Music Medix, LLC
Address: 4274 Gray Hwy Suite E, Gray, GA 31032 , Jasper County , Georgia , United States
My son has been taking guitar lessons from here for 2 years. He has learned so much and had the opportunities to play in front of people often. He has met some great friends! Music Medix has given him the confidence not only to play, but to sing, as well. I would recommend this place for any child wanting to learn music and meet friends while doing it!
My daughter has been taking piano and singing for over a year and now she’s learning the guitar. She loves going to lessons and has been taught so much. Mr Chris is an awesome person and is so wonderful with his students. Highly recommend this place
Chris Pope is very talented and is a good teacher. My boys are enjoying learning to play the guitar.
9. Jackson’s Music Store Inc
Address: 1651 Horizon Pkwy #500, Buford, GA 30518 , Jasper County , Georgia , United States
I love this music store! Always great service, knowledgeable and super friendly!
Love Jackson’s Music! Have been our go-to music store for my mom’s guitar needs, and my kids violin needs. Always very helpful! Went in yesterday to have my daughter’s violin repaired and they fixed it immediately!! Have gone above and beyond to help us with fixing every problem, ordering things we need, and finding everything we have needed for a while now. Check them out
My son damaged his saxophone 2 days before his Allstate Audition. How that happened is another story but I called Jackson music to see when it could be repaired. They told me it could take 2 to 3 days. I came the next morning and Doug, their repair guy, was gracious enough to come give it a quick evaluation on the spot. Although he was extremely busy between repairs for two different stores he told me he could fix it that same day. True to his word it was restored by end of day. Appreciate him going above and beyond!! This JM store has always provided great service to us!
They have fair prices and a mini guitar-center-like selection of guitars. My only complaint is I felt pushed to make a sale when I looked at guitars.
Chad was very helpful.

I like this stores. You can saw variety of instruments. And if you want take music classes of any instrument, this is the place. You can found different types of instruments. (Wind, Percussion, string, etc.)
Español
Me gustan esta tiendas. Puedes ver variedad de instrumentos. Y si quieres tomar clases de música de cualquier instrumento, este es el lugar. Puedes encontrar diferentes tipos de instrumentos. (Viento, Percusión, cuerda, etc.)
this store is downright awful. the service is terrible and they try to pull every penny out of your pockets. small fixes can be charge to up to $200 and is downright despicable.
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!
10. Canton Music Shoppe
Address: 149 Reinhardt College Pkwy #11, Canton, GA 30114 , Jasper County , Georgia , United States
Our family uses Canton Music Shoppe for everything we need to support our musical endeavors! We have rented instruments, purchased instruments and equipment, taken lessons, and attended camps at the shop. We have never been disappointed! Our instructors have been very talented and inspiring. The prices for lessons and products are very competitive. The staff is always extremely helpful and knowledgeable. I am so glad that our community has these guys to promote and support its music!
I read a few reviews that were hard on customer service at this store. I’m not sure how, my experience was fabulous. The manager, Eric(?), was super helpful, professional and explained things well. Also, the prices seemed very good. I actually canceled an Amazon order after making my small purchase at the shop. I expected to pay more to touch and try before I bought the product, but it just wasn’t the case here. Fairly priced, professional service and great products.
I couldn’t be happier with my experience with Canton. Brennan is extremely knowledgeable and helpful in finding me what I needed. He’s very low pressure and easy to work with. You can tell he takes pride in finding solutions to each persons needs. I’ll be back soon!
Great staff. Very friendly. Prices were great!
I bid 4000.00 on a Gibson Gold Top guitar listed at 4,999.00 . They countered my offer with 5,299.00?? I’ve never heard of anything like this.
The store counter to my offer was more than the original price?? That’s so wrong. Hoof luck dealing with these guys.
Not very happy with my experience here. It’s like they dont want you to touch anything. They constantly stare at you while you’re in the store like you’re going to steal something. Very uncomfortable feeling while there. Not my favorite music store!
Customer service said it all as I walked out and heard the guy comment to another store employee that people who can’t play will blame the guitar. If my playing was the problem, he could have been the solution in helping me figure that out instead of being snide, patronizing and rude, or at least he could have waited until I was gone. Needless to say, this long time customer will go elsewhere in the future. UPDATE: I went to Guitar Center in Kennesaw where my son and I were listened to and treated respectfully. We were thoroughly assisted with patience and great advice; bought a new guitar and perfect traveling case. Will definitely continue to shop there even though it’s a bit of a drive.
11. JAWS GUITARS
Address: 111 Mountain Vista Blvd #135, Canton, GA 30115 , Jasper County , Georgia , United States
Great little shop with friendly service and the prices are great compared to other shops around Canton.
Jaws is a great music store, very friendly and helpful
Good place for Canton residents to find musical equipment.
Knowledgeable, friendly owner. Cozy shop and nice environment. Now, if I could just magically learn how to play…..I’d give it one more star….
support your local music stores. professional repairs and great service. These guys give fair prices on trade-ins as well.
Great sound equipment at reasonable prices compared to the big box music stores. The gentleman, who I assumed was the owner, was very knowledgeable about everything musical.
I needed a setup for my Gibson Les Paul and decided to give Jaws a shot because of their overwhelmingly positive reviews. I dropped of my guitar and told the luthier that I was experiencing a lot of fret buzz. The turn around time was very quick and I was able to pick it up the next day. I was told that there would still be some buzz based on my attack, which seemed like a cop out. I asked if there were any high frets and I was assured that there were none. I took the guitar home and played it to find that I was still experiencing buzzing even when strummed lightly. I pulled out the fret rocker to find that several of my frets were high despite what the shop told me. Overall, this was a waste of time and money and I’m very disappointed with the level of service.
