I am so happy I found an amazing luthier and a friend. Truly top-notch!
Jonathan does awesome work- looked for a local luthier for a long time before finally coming across his shop. He’s repaired both my Collins 001Mh and Martin D28 Marquis to such a high level I can’t tell where the repair happened, highly recommended.
Jonathan did an awesome job setting up my guitar. I highly recommend his services
2. Jensen Guitars
Address: 360 Main St, Longmont, CO 80501 , Mead , Colorado , United States
It was my first time in here today and I was treated very kindly! I’m new to playing but the guy behind the counter took the time to answer all my questions and explain things to me politely. I’ll definitely be coming back.
Staff was friendly and fast! He replaced a tuning knob, put on new guitar strings and tuned it for me.
This place is great, good prices, great service, and good stuff!
Good people knowledgeable, highly recommend
Bought the tool I need next in my grand plan. 5 string Bass. It’s a pretty beauty.
They have more than just guitars they also sell wind instruments and string instruments
Don can be a bit rude and condescending. I want to support the small business local guys, but just a little more respect would go a long way.
Great place if you are looking for a cheap jangly Chinese made guitar. Spend a few minutes with the owner so he can brag about his skills and insult your intelligence!
They didn’t communicate with me and made me wait a month for a simple violin repair. The repair also wasn’t done well and had to be brought back days later to have bridge fixed again. Days later it only broke yet again……
3. LCM Guitar
Address: 1824 French Hill Dr, Berthoud, CO 80513 , Mead , Colorado , United States
Jerry did a full on restoration of my vintage Gibson acoustic. He came highly recommended from a high end guitar shop in the Denver Metro area. The work and communication were on point! Highly recommended.
I have been doing business with Wind Over the Earth for ten years. They’ve helped me build my studio each step of the way, from the baby steps in the beginning to the larger investments down the road. They are the most honest business I’ve ever experienced. Their goal is to share their love of music with the community and it shows in how they treat their customers. When it comes to pro audio, it’s so critical to have a good relationship with your seller. Jesse, Mark and Kellen have helped me build the studio of my dreams. They’ve always worked within my budget, goals, and musical tastes… and boy — do they know their stuff! It’s very special to work with these folks. Check them out! They are friendly, open and ready to answer any of your questions. I am super glad they moved to Longmont — you just can’t beat having quality local business in the community. Thanks guys!
These guys are awesome! I called late on a Friday before they were going to close, desperately in need of some bulk mogami cable. I couldn’t make it to their business before they closed, but lived close to where the owner lived. So, I paid over the phone and we met close to where he lived 30 minutes later. He showed up on time and so did I. I got my cable and they saved me over two hours of having to drive to Denver in rush hour traffic on a Friday. Don’t expect this kind of service as a regular event, but it just goes to show how much they care about their customers! Amazing!!! A+!!!!
They’ve given me outstanding service and quality for over 13 years. Without equal.
Took care of my daughter’s saxophone while she waited. Fantastic customer service, we will definitely be repeat customers!
Maya was very courteous and professional. Her service was excellent. Highly recommended
Maya and her husband were so helpful and friendly. I really enjoyed our experience renting a sax for our son.
I’m horrible at name’s but am assuming the guy who helped me was the owner , he was very nice and had a lot knowledge on all the instruments. He was a lot of help.
9. Guitars Etc
Address: 750 9th Ave, Longmont, CO 80501 , Mead , Colorado , United States
Really amazing electric guitar inventory! Great brands like Tom Anderson, Suhr, Fender Gibson Ibanez ect and a ton more. Staff was awesome! Great acoustic guitars as well!
Right now my 14 y/o son is picking Blue Oyster Cult on his new Fender Stratocaster and amp for the umpteenth time, every day improving and having a blast doing so…thanks to Todd and his fantastic crew at Guitars Etc for all the personal and detailed service…greatly appreciated!
Very nice! Excellent customer service.
Knowledgeable staff, decent prices. Everything you need.
I’m going to get my instrument from here. The instrument should not be that expensive.
Decent selection fair prices and really helpful staff.
Bad customer service.. Stay away. Owner has a bad attitude and did not appreciate my business during pandamic. Its ok I took my business to Jensen guitars down the street where the customer service was top notch. The Owner was rude towards my child for knocking over a sign that was not damaged and said some not so nice things. If you do go to the place do yourself a favor and leave your children at home. This place is not child friendly. Never will return to this place and would never recommend it to anyone. You sir lost a customer.!
Good service depends on the day that you go in. They have eyes on you the whole time like you are going to break something. Would rather drive to the nearest Guitar Center.
The staff is anti-social, the owner is mean. Enough said.
10. Barton Cane
Address: 407 Martin St, Longmont, CO 80501 , Mead , Colorado , United States
Bartok Cane has a tremendous selection of precision processed cane. Their customer service is remarkably fast and friendly.
Fantastic oboe cane and supplies!
The best part of Barton Cane is that you will always start from a good place. The quality control is out of this world. I’ve never received a piece of cane that looked anything less than beautiful.
Love this store. Has all the great albums on vinyl. Has great service and very knowledgable
Great store with well priced gems, found 3 great 1st pressings today in excellent condition.
Place has alot of high end audio, just wish they had better selection of lps…its a small store so I’m shure they would have better selection if they had more room,,,the owner is the guy to talk to if you want to learn about turntables
Friendly staff, fair prices and a clean spot. The selection is pretty minimal, they used to have waaaaay more selection at the Boulder store. Still worth a visit in Longmont though.
They have an excellent selection of records, as well as equipment to play them on.
solid store. nice guy running it. mix of new and used. selection is fine – not the best, but I did find a RSD release I’d been looking for for quite a while. really cool audio equipment too.
The shop is small and lacks selection. The gray haired lad working up front is over opinionated and set in his way. Diversity is lacking. Pretentious gatekeeping will keep me from coming back.
Seem to be out of business. Queried their Facebook page, no reply. Bicycle shop moved to that shop.
I love supporting local shops, gave this one a try. Smaller selection compared to many of my favorite shops but well organized. Unfortunately the owner was condescending & inconsiderate when I engaged him. Made me feel uncomfortable to the point that I left prematurely. Not the kind of interaction I am used to in Longmont :/
17. Mojo’s Music Academy
Address: 350 Terry St, Longmont, CO 80501 , Mead , Colorado , United States
The owners are fantastic! Excellent music instruction.
Mojo’s is a great place to learn to play! I I’m learning the drums, but they teach pretty much everything here. Why not learn to play the ukulele? Nice facility, great teachers.
A great experience for my grandson, who is learning guitar from experienced and professional musicians. They care about kids as much as they care about music!
Great music academy, started me off on playing guitar, my teacher was incredible, very kind, helpful, and skilled. Great place!
18. Recycled Records LP
Address: 1067 S Hover St C, Longmont, CO 80501 , Mead , Colorado , United States
Great record store! Owner is super nice and knowledgeable. Prices are great. I definitely will be coming back sometime.
Yes, some of the records are priced higher than what you may find on Discogs. There is no way a bricks-and-mortar store can compete with an online retailer. This store gives you a chance to browse and hold the record in your hand before you decide to buy. Some bargains can be found. I have found many. The extra percentage you might pay is well worth the price to have a local record shop that stock quality discs.
Yes, the store owner is a little quirky. She gets stressed and can be a little short under pressure. Just give her a chance and some grace. You might find her to be quite pleasant after you get to know her.
As for the quality. If you find a record in poor condition at this store it’s only because it slipped through the cracks. They try to stock VG+ or better records only. (look up the rating system, “Good” does not mean good)
All ways good.
Wee-bit pricey, but outstanding selection. My 14 year old daughter LOVED the Taylor Swift selection.
Nicely organized, and there is something for nearly everyone. A bit pricy but well worth it for those who want to take something home that day. I found several great LPs I wanted to add to my collection.
Good place a good amount of thing you for got about and miss
Walked in to buy a gift card and the lady was incredibly rude. She shut the door and said we are closed. I’ll take my money elsewhere.
I would say this place has a great selection but I never got the chance to look at anything. While flipping through my first box of records, which are way overpriced, the owner copped a nasty attitude with my daughter. I decided to grab my daughter and leave and the owner proceeded to yell at us on our way out. I’ve seen a lot of reviews on the store that talk about this lady’s nasty attitude. I can tell you firsthand that it’s true she is a very rude person with no customer service skills.
Great availability. Prices out of wack.look carefully at the record. Concern about quality
