We found MrSilverTrumpet while searching for a Silent Brass trumpet system, the SB7X-2 by Yamaha. Forget Amazon, eBay, and Reverb. Their prices were lower than any of them and other competitors. So, we gave them a try. Great customer service, we got a quick delivery of our silent mute, and it was a genuine Yamaha product. This is the type of small business I like to support, and they are also authorized Yamaha dealers.
We are looking for a Silent Brass system for our son’s trombone, the newest one the SB5X-2, and found MrSilverTrumpet online. They had the best price anywhere and we got Priority Mail as there free service, so we had the system in hand in just two days!. Thanks for the great service.
2. TR Music & Voice Lessons
Address: 641 Cork St, Largo, FL 33770 , Largo , Florida , United States
After only a few weeks, the children were able to play simple songs, while Omar accompanied them. Omar organized a recital for his students to play in front of their parents and it was great to see how positively the children responded to the experience of playing and supporting each other.
I mean really, the teachers come to your house! It’s so nice to not have to drive to one more activity. Our teachers, Sami (viola) and Joey (voice) are fabulous! We have been with TR for many years now and we couldn’t be happier. Both teachers are fun, flexible, knowledgeable, talented and truly love working with my kids. The kids have learned so much from their teachers, which is wonderful, but the best part is the confidence that they have gained. Thank you!!
TR Lessons has been a revelation in my musical growth! Under Emily’s guidance, I’ve flourished in piano, learning more than I thought possible in just a year. Her perfect blend of encouragement and challenges keeps me inspired and motivated.

Good costumers services, good prices and friendly to all the costumers, good guitar and I think is more than 5 starts
It was my first experience with Seminole Music Store. Great and fast service! Unfortunately, I don’t know the name of the worker, forgot to ask, but he did a great job! He restrung Sigma Guitars Acoustic Left-Hand Guitar today! Thank you so much! I appreciate your time and excellent job! Highly recommend him! Certainly, I will come back to this store! 10 stars!
Salesman was incredibly friendly, helpful, he definitely knew his stuff and was able to help me find what I needed. I’ll absolutely be back!
Local musician here, I bought a pair of sticks here in a pinch before a gig. They broke before my first set was over. 10/10 will not be back here for any gear. 2 stars because the guy behind the counter knew they were cheap sticks.
Keep up the good work!
Went to check it out – it appears to be out of business!
Get rid of website til there is info on stock
4. Impact Register Inc
Address: 1870 Starkey Rd STE 1, Largo, FL 33771 , Largo , Florida , United States
My experience with Mr. Villano recently was quite memorable. I needed a family member’s guitar restrung-I did not have any reference but liked what I read on the website so after calling to inquire pricing and hours I took the guitar to his shop on a Friday. He let me know the additional touch ups that he would do aside from the strings. The strap also needed to be re-placed and upon his suggestion I agreed. Mr Villano called me the next day to let me know it was ready! I could tell the difference as soon as he took it out of the case! I don’t play guitar but have always appreciated a ‘fine tuned’ instrument. He also shared with me the history of this particular guitar which was quite interesting! I appreciated the quick turn around and cannot wait for my brother-in-law to pick it up and play!
Thankyou!

Great music store, excellent customer service, great music instructors.
Excelente
It would be nice if they open when they say they will be open…
Nice staff. Small inventory
Brought my brand new telecaster in for a setup and the owner did a good job, however when I brought it in a few weeks later to have fret sprout addressed, the owner mangled the high E side of the fretboard. It appears he used improper tools, sloppy technique, and did no protective taping. It is rough, uneven, and he also proceeded to over bevel the frets to almost 3 times the proper length so the string constantly pops off the side. When I brought it to his attention and asked him to pay to have the neck that he ruined replaced, he refused.
Called the store to see if they could repair an isntrument for me and as I was calling I also visited their website. The website said closed so I hung up and was going to call back tomorrow. I then received a call from them which I didn’t ask for and I tried to explain why I was calling but the guy told me I was wasting my time. He never listened to what I had to say. I would have not given any stars but that is not an option to post. Rude.
I called to ask what thier business hours were on a Thursday at 1:30pm. The old man answered the phone “Villano Music”. He hung up on me I thought by accident so I called back. The second time he answered with, “didn’t you notice I hung up the phone?” I don’t think he wants his business to last. Go to Sam Ash if you want a courteous person. Wow what a disappointment.
6. Central Music, Inc.
Address: 5175 Ulmerton Rd, Clearwater, FL 33760 , Largo , Florida , United States
I recently purchased a piano from Tim , what a great experience it was. The whole team took us through a tour of everything that was available for all my inquiries everything was professionally done from their front door to the delivery to my door I highly recommend Central Music ! THANK YOU – Tim and Sharon!
I stopped in a week before Christmas to purchase an electric piano for my kids. They were very helpful and fair. The piano is wonderful and I would definitely recommend them to anyone.
I have studied classical music for the past 55 years. Recently, I purchased a Rodgers Classic organ (series 558) for practice at home. The price was excellent, and service is outstanding! On the day of delivery, the truck arrived and the console, bench, and pedal unit were all blanket wrapped.
They spent about 1 1/2 hours setting the instrument up in the living room, testing and adjusting as necessary (pedals sitting on a carpeted floor), and a good 30 minutes or more showing ALL features and answering all questions.
Having been a music director in the South Florida Area for over 30 years, I have personally played on some of their installations – both electronic and hybrid electronic/pipe instruments. It becomes obvious when one walks into a church that great care was taken in designing the perfect instrument for the space – not only visually, but also acoustically. I have long been a fan of Rodgers instruments and they are the South Florida representatives.
Whether you have need of a practice instrument at home, or your church is looking to replace or upgrade the organ, I recommend without hesitation that you check with Central Music. I’m sure that you will agree that they stand out from their competitors in design, price, and support.
Owner stood over me questioning about my income. Felt very unwelcoming. She claimed to do a lot of work with the church, but should probably read the Bible again. There are better piano shops where people welcome aspiring musicians…
Bad customer service, very rude
7. Fletcher Music Center Inc
Address: 12717 59th Way N, Clearwater, FL 33760 , Largo , Florida , United States
very professional and knowledgeable. Annette was very helpful.
Had a great time
They only sell organs. I’m sure they’re certainly nice and talented at that, but if you’re looking for a traditional musical instrument shop like I was, keep looking 🙂
Told me other places to pick up what I was looking for and what they had to offer. Very courteous and informative.
8. Smokin’ CD’s
Address: 2865 E Bay Dr, Largo, FL 33771 , Largo , Florida , United States
This store is great. Love the owners. Tons of variety
Great place
Great customer service, very friendly & courteous. Nice atmosphere & prices.
I loved this place. I went there when I thought it was open and it was closed. Then I stopped by when I thought it would be closed and they were open. The trick is to do the opposite of what you think you should do, and magically, it works. Or maybe I was just a bit toasted.
Great place to find Cd’s and movies. The owners are great.
Haven’t been open when I drive there….sign on the door
Are they ever open? 2nd day in a row, I’m here at 1:00 not open…had fun looking thru the window…
Was there today with 2 other customers waiting outside. Suppose to open at 1:00 pm. We all waited until 1:20 and then left. Don’t get it.
Did not trust the owner at all!
9. Imagine Guitars LLC
Address: 4 Belleview Blvd # 807, Belleair, FL 33756 , Largo , Florida , United States
Was very pleased with my last visit Had all the parts I needed in & out in less than 1 hour
The owner spent an unexpected amount of time looking up what was needed for my hard to service vehicle (XJ8 Vanden Plas) in order to make sure he gave me the best advice possible. I was really impressed with the service.
Excellent work fixed my car stereo and tinted windows
Nice people!
Just had a system replaced in a Porsche 911 by CarTunes. No surprises – system sounds great, they are very careful with my car, great value. These are experts in auto sound and a very friendly group to deal with. Highly recommend CarTunes.
My car radio worked when I took it in to be detailed and when I picked it up the radio wasn’t working. I took it to Car Tunes (on a recommendation) to be looked at and hopefully repaired. I was expecting it not to be repairable and costing me some $$ to replace it. It was repaired and re-installed at NO cot to me. I’m assuming the repair cost was paid by the owner of the detail shop. I was very happy with the overall experience at Car Tunes. The only thing I could possibly say to improve customer service is to call the customer and give them updates on the progress, don’t make the customer call for the information.
Staff is very strange and made me feel uncomfortable. Went in to repair a stereo system and he barely listened when I was talking, not to mention he completely ignored me and stared at his phone when I first came in. After a few hours I got a call back saying it was ready to be picked up and I come in to find out it was not completely fixed. Only positive was the person that actually worked on the stereo was very friendly and eventually got everything working.
2nd time in as many trips as these guys just straight up lie thinking they’re smarter than anyone else. “We put this is for free”…except you charged me 300 percent what i can buy the part for myself……i brought it to you to do the work, you didn’t have to be dishonest and bend me over…thanks….wouldnt come again if it was free!
Brought my boat here for speakers, amp, and headunit install and quoted for 3 hours and materials, 4 hours max( ended up being charged for 5 hours). Had appt at 9 and came back the next day at 9 for pick up. All speakers were tested before handing over for install. One speaker was blown. Wrong screws we’re put into speaker mount and marked up speakers and uneven because they didn’t pre drill. They used liquid nail for amp board inside console and didn’t cure.obviously trying to save a few dollars instead of using the appropriate Marine application 5200. And please stanby for an update to see if they fix these mistakes.
Update***: My speaker was not blown and bought new pair of speakers for no reason and they appologized after I spent 400$. These people know nothing about boats and have cut 2 giant holes into my livewell rendering it useless and can cause me to take on water! Over the last 3 days it has been nothing but headaches! They did not show me or notify me or ask for permission to do so!
Awesome & Professional. Very friendly and a good overall vibe.
DTunes has so much to offer! His passion for the arts and music technicality will definitely help you as an artist feel empowered to reach your full potential!
The name says it all, “Empowering”
That is exactly what the owners of this lounge do. They work overtime to make sure that theh are empowering people to greatness.
It is a good clean atmosphere which goes above and beyond for there clients.
Not to mention, they are very reasonably priced.
13. Arc Music Inc
Address: Clearwater, FL 33756 , Largo , Florida , United States
Very cool store with a wide variety of inventory, firearms, ammo, jewelry, guitars, & amplifiers. The staff is awsome too.
Best experience ever! Tim and Rita were amazing at being personable in their customer service. Even helped me with my card when it was malfunctioning! (Tape trick ;)) Thanks again, now I know why they are so highly rated. Highly recommend, nothing but high quality all around.
Great guys in the shop, super helpful! And a great spot for music finds if you’re looking
Nice enough people working here. Wasn’t a bad experience
Tim was nice in negotiating a diamond ring that he sold to me, very nice guy however i baught the diamond ring because of the information given to me. I took that ring to a jeweler to see if all the information tim had given me was correct & just so happens to be we were both wrong & the diamond was a lot smaller then we both thought. The very next day i take the ring back to get my money back & one of the employees( tall male) was just the rudest person, he would not give me a refund nor did he want to call the owner who sold me the ring & started telling me im not a customer & they dont do refunds. I would not recommend this place to anyone & i feel like they got over on me & are not honest. Good luck to all & good luck finding an honest business to work with not this.
First and last time !!

This pawn shop is awesome not only are they always helpful but they are super nice people! Always have awesome deals on there stuff!!
Very nice
Always great prices on games and other collectibles.
Although I did not find what I was looking for, Ricky the salesperson was very nice.
Smile, greet, customer satisfaction. Great store. Ghetto.
Exigent
You need a line just for people to buy things….
I’d give less stars if I could. I was in the store 10 min and no one acknowledged me or the fact that I was looking to buy something. Manager ( I assume) was very rude.
Awful staff, don’t waste your time and money there.
20. Steinway Piano Gallery Clearwater – Formerly The Music Gallery of Clearwater
Address: 5990 Ulmerton Rd, Clearwater, FL 33760 , Largo , Florida , United States
It was a pleasure to work with Jonathan from Steinway gallery in Clearwater. When I arrived there I was impressed by the quality of the pianos on sale. Jonathan spent several hours assisting me during the selection of the piano and he did his best to make sure that the piano that I chose was serviced in the way that I asked. The guys from his showroom that delivered the piano were very professional and spent a lot of time to make sure to leave the piano in the best conditions.
Over all it was very professional service!
We just bought a piano from this store yesterday and it was a delightful experience. It’s so nice to have people that know their craft so well and that are happily willing to help and serve.
Update:
Today they delivered the piano and set it up and even wiped it clean for us. Bryce and Pedro were so pleasant and accommodating. This team of people have met and exceeded our expectations on every level. So happy to be playing away today!! ♥️
Great Experience here. Jonathan was amazing to work with. I wanted a digital piano. He recommended a Roland mini grand. I couldn’t be happier. It sounds fantastic and is beautiful too! Delivery was on time and they were also neat and courteous. Highest recommendation!
Lots of nice pianos.
Nice but very tiny parking for music recitals
They have wonderful piano from upright to baby and grand pianos.
I searched (googled) for the new location of Piano Distributors and the paid search result came back with this store’s address. Highly unethical and probably illegal. I wish I could select less than 1 star!
I’m sure the place is great if you’re buying a piano. It’s just one of those experiences where, if you’re not a dollar sign, you don’t deserve respect type of things. I was just helping my parents sell their old piano because they were moving. So I called around, these guys popped up first in the search. The guy didn’t sound too enthusiastic when I told him I had an old piano to sell. fair enough I suppose. Sent pics and he said not interested, which was fine, no problem there. So I asked if he could recommend me some options. You know what he said? “It’s an old used up piano” No one wants it the cost would exceed the value (which was true yes) Then he proceeds to say “Just the truth”. Like really bro? You had to put it like that so rudely? That could’ve been said a million other ways without having to be condescending. I called another place up and they didn’t want the piano either, the difference was that they were professional, kind and actually gave us some information on where we can donate and even helped setup up a time for a pickup from the donation center. VERY helpful. So my 1 star is directed toward the rude, disrespectful guy who was also condescending to me, just down right rude. He didn’t see profit, so he didn’t feel the need to reciprocate respect. He was just a jerk. Tweeted it to my 300K+ followers and made a Youtube video on my main channel on snobs like this guy. On the plus side, this gave me an idea to create some content on Youtube. The ad revenue I’m going to get is definitely going to exceed the cost of this experience. Worth it.
My wife and I visited this place today and found the staff inattentive and non-friendly.
I walked around the entire store and none of the staff even said hello.
Walked out very disappointed. 2 thumbs down.
