Where to find the best music shops in La Puente? Top-10 options

Plain & simple… it’s the best! Thank you Mario for always being my go to when I need anything and everything!!!

Alpha strings is the best shop to purchase a violin! I am Mariachi and have spent months looking for a violin upgrade. I visited Mario’s shop and was amazed by his customer service! He listens to the client’s needs and wants. Violins have many tones, and he knows his violin extremely well that he starts to suggest some based on your preferences and of course price. It took about three violins before I fell in love with “the one!” (At other shops, I have tried more than five and was never impressed.) I have had my violin now for over a month, and I am so happy with it! He even taught me a few tips and tricks during my visit! If you are looking for a violin, definitely stop by Mario’s shop; you will not regret it!

Second time I come here to buy my violin/other supplies and he does not disappoint! Very patient and knowledgeable about his instruments, don’t hesitate to shop here for all types of prices he has on his instruments.

It’s a great store

I’ve now had multiple times where I’ve called or went in to this store. Every time I have had nothing but the best experience. Knowledgeable staff and a good attitude go a long way. I’ll feel keep frequenting them in the future.

This place has great service

Overal good
They kind of didn’t know what I meant when i wanted a MIDI cable to connect to my laptop but other than that they have good service

Great place with a lot for a small shop.

Stupid store they ask for to much just to rent a instrument I had to go twice after work and still walked out with no violin. Don’t waist your time in this store singing papers for nothing. I went to another music store by gale and Fullerton and walked out happy with my instrument in less than 10 min the store is called Sam ash 5 stars for Sam ash

I found Marcos guitar set up service through an offer up ad. To be honest I was kind of nervous about dropping my guitar off to a stranger lol…after facing my fears I decided to go through with it since I really needed to get my guitar set up properly… I took a chance and I’m glad I did.
Marco is very professional and knowledgeable in guitar set up and electronics installation as he is a former fender technician. I talked to him for a good hour and it was great picking his brain. He said he would have my guitar finished by the next day and he came through. My guitar sounds great now that the pick ups/truss rod/ string heights are all dialed in.

Thanks again Marco !!

Where do I begin. HI-TECH GUITAR SERVICE is literally the best place to get work done for any guitar repair or care. I was looking for a guitar repair shop near me and luckily was able to find this place which is close to my job. I brought in 2 guitars. One needed some work and some love (new knobs, strap locks well new set up overall. The second one needs a new input jack (so I thought) Marco was such a badass that he was able to fix that on the spot and was honest about it. Any other scumbag could have played it off and said I needed a new this or that to make a quick buck off somebody but not Marco. I left my guitars on Tuesday afternoon and were both ready by today Saturday.
Overall the shop has a good vibe and he also does other stuff on the side such as comics and horror stuff which is pretty rad in my book. I want to take the time and let it be known that I’m not a type of guy to leave reviews but in this case I had too because Marco is a Beast and has excellent customer service and excellent detail to everything he works on. The dude is a solid guy and trustworthy for any guitar work.
I would definitely recommend anyone to come to him for all your guitar repair/work done. You are the man Marco keep doing your thing!
You earned a loyal customer right here

Leaving this review to let others know this business is legit. Marco knows his stuff and he does solid work.

My MIJ Fender Hybrid II Jazzmaster would go sharp instantly after using the trem arm, and I didn’t know what the issue was. I switched to heavier strings, lubed the contact points, and even took it to another shop where the luthier cut the nut. However, nothing had helped my situation until Marco did a full set up. $50 is a small price to pay for tuning stability. Thanks to Marco, the guitar now stays in tune despite heavy handed trem usage. Definitely will be using this business in the future.

Have bought Concert T-shirts at awesome prices, and Best record selection. Love this place.

Great local record store where you can dig around with a great selection of used records and cassettes. Love this place.

I had a good time looking at records today. Gilbert was kind.

Old school record shop.

disorganized but cool

I was recommended to see Gilbert at Frank and Sons. He stereotyped me as a DJ and was super offensive. Don’t try asking for a fair price, he made some antisemitic remarks to me about it. Very disrespectful and shouldn’t be in this business. I’m a serious collector and own 3k records. I would not recommend for anyone who wishes to have a good day.

No good

this place is horrible. trash customer service from Gilbert, he disrespected my father and i had to step in to ask him if he was serious. lucky we even were going to support his poor business, the records are mostly scratched and beat up. dont waste your time here. would vote -5 stars if possible. stay away and especially their booth in FranknSons just bad vibes all around.

These guys are super awesome. They were timely and when I opened the box, I saw the best packing of a guitar I have ever seen. Not to mention, I love the guitar I bought. This was a pleasant experience from the get go and a complete 180 from my last guitar buying experience. I highly recommending buying from these guys.

They’re nice and helpful. Thank you!

My son wanted to add a violin to his musical instrument collection so I took him to Sam Ash in City Of Industry. Erica was very attentive & knowledgeable, she showed him different size violins and even special ordered a Blue Grass book for him!!! Erica sold him exactly what my kiddo wanted and he played all the way home in my car! Thank you ERICA, best service person ever!!!

I love this store. Thank you Gillian for all the help and knowledge. We will be back soon to get that bass guitar for our daughter.

Solid service. A decent selection of guitars and basses. Amazing complementary goods like strings and stands. A little, just a little of a depressing environment. Thank you!

I’m very happy with the service and the product I received. The only thing was bad was that the website and contact of the company was confusing. Overall though, i had a great experience

Came in for some strings on a weekday afternoon and it was relatively empty. Service was… well… lacking. I grabbed my strings and went to the guitar associate’s desk to check out. It was a female associate helping some other guy with pedals so I waited for my turn. I didn’t mind waiting as she dealt with that, but other associates just kind of walked on by. I was never even told a, “I’ll be with you in a moment,” which would at least make my wait feel acknowledged. I just felt kind of ignored and after about 10 minutes give or take of waiting near that desk I left. It was a crummy experience.

Not a very good customer service experience…so I just took my business elsewhere.

Worthless place. Not even worth going back to get a refund. I figure $7 is getting off cheap. Never doing business there ever again. I hate this place.
