Excellent service and low prices. Really fun exploring options and greeted with a friendly face always.
These guys are great. It’s wonderful to walk in the store and feel the local presence of the owner and the people there really care about music and making you feel welcome.
Customer service is everything when it comes to customer care. Hart music is a store that cares about the individual and their needs.
Good selection of strings and such. Friendly staff, clean store. Used gear is almost 50% higher than what you could find on reverb.
Good local business. Bought some headphones and wireless headset mic from them. Had a little bit of a mix up but they were helpful and took care of the issue. Good local business. Recommend.
Great place and good selection of amps and elcetric guitars as well as other music needs. Overall friendly and knowledgeable
Was sold a keyboard being told by the salesman it had a USB port to hook it up to the computer, write music with it and that it had touch sensitive keys. Wrapped it up as a gift for the daughter. When she opened it, we were telling her how she could hook it up to her computer and she was really excited. Then she started playing it, no touch sensitive keys or USB port. The very reason we bought it. So disappointing. We took it back, were told so sorry, our mistake. You can buy this one for 50.00 more that has everything you want and when you want to trade that one in, we’ll give you a great deal on it. We paid 172.00 for the keyboard at Harts music….I found it on Amazon, same keyboard for 99.00. Wish I would have checked Amazon first. Will not be going back to Harts Music totally took advantage of our ignorance in keyboards.
Not impressed! My first experience with this shop, I brought an old acoustic in for some setup work after I switched to lighter strings. I did a neck adjustment but still had e string buzzing and a b string ring. I needed a new nut, and & bridge adjustment, fret leveling too which I explained, but Jan absolutely is clueless I guess all he heard was “string change”. I have a bunch of guitars I can do basic work on them and I’ve been changing my own strings for 30 years! but Jan promised me a pro would look at it and contact me to discuss the repairs. They shined me for a week, never tried to contact me as I promised, then all they did was change my strings (and they even put the wrong ones on!). Now all the strings buzz! So I’m right back where I started. I’m local too & gave them every chance, they failed miserably.
Bought a bass before I had a cell phone.
Was marked $1200, scratched out, marked $800, scratched out marked $600. Nice bass, thought it was a good deal. Missing hard case so got a soft case instead.
Found out later the retail price is $400.
Deceptive pricing.

Awesome friendly staff, answered all my questions, very knowledgeable
They have an excellent selection of instruments and supplies and a knowledgable and helpful staff. They also have a large inventory of sheet music. They appear to be the go-to store for local schools and bands.
Love Roper Music, best place in town for your kids school instruments, they are very knowledgeable and always willing to help, plus they fix broken strings and other Maintenance and keep up
Wonderful service from the man at the counter today when I was buying a flute for my daughter. The flute was of very high quality and the free instrument ID tag was a nice bonus. I did not however appreciate a woman, who may have been an employee, manager, or owner, who came over to the check-out counter within 6 feet of me, unmasked while I was making my purchase. Her disregard for my personal safety as a customer was not appreciated.
Could not help me get the right Reed for my son and did not offer me much help on my payments! Seem way more snobby now than when I used them years ago.
Knowledgeable staff, very friendly and helpful
Wanted to rent for a couple months before I purchased an instrument but was told that service only available to students.
Usually great service, this time took instrument in for repair, was told $85 and be ready the next day. 10 days later, after calling twice it was “found”. bill $95
I went to get an instrument appraised and the owner could not give me the time of day to even look at it. He opened the case for 2 seconds and closed it with out even looking at the condition of the instrument (which is excellent). Offered me a low ball for what it is worth. Very rude and poor service.
3. Grand Valley Music Co.
Address: 2486 Patterson Rd, Grand Junction, CO 81505 , Mesa County , Colorado , United States
Awesome little local music store with instruments for you or your kiddo! You can buy, rent, or rent to own.
They also have lots of sheet music, including all the books, reeds, ligatures, rosins, oils, cleaning kits and everything else you need to survive having a kid in band or orchestra.
They do repairs, and have guitar lessons on site!
The owner was very helpful in helping me find the perfect guitar for my husband.
Friendly owner and great service and pricing
4. Guitar Center
Address: 2424 US-6 & 50, Grand Junction, CO 81505 , Mesa County , Colorado , United States
These guys are Awesome , Great People, Great Service!!!!
Brand new store yet very well stocked with a wide variety of instruments and decent accessories with more to come im sure.
The Staff was very helpful and seem to sincerely want to meet our needs and patiently answered all our questions.
The prices are reasonable with some exceptional savings on certain items, and a pleasant surprise they give Military discounts to Veterans and Active Members, Well done greatly appreciated !
And lastly, thus far all my purchases (bass,amp,cables, guitar stand, guitar strap,music stand and 2 instructional books etc.) have been of very good quality, the Ibanez bass is a stunning blood mahogany red with a beautiful gloss finish and crisp pick ups and sweet timbre.
Overall a great place for musicians to feed their musical interests.
Update 06/13/2023
Purchased a few more items
ProLine complete MIC PACK.
Comes with mic, mic cable, mic stand, and mic clip. Plus mic case and case for entire ensemble. Overall quality to price ratio is excellent. Passive mic so you will need an amp/ power source.
HARBINGER LV7.
7 channel mixer with Bluetooth. A lot of bang for the buck and lots of bells and whistles, nice pre-amp.
ZOOM B1Xfour.
Multi-Effects Prcoessor with expression pedal (for bass). Very user-friendly interface and good basic effects to begin with and you can program many more. Built-in Tuner which is very cool and easy to use and Built-in drum machine that has a nice punch and decent kick to it.
I love this place. They are open-minded, kind, friendly, and helpful. The staff is amazing! Christian is the best!
Read all of Guitar Center reviews, then go into the store. You’ll soon see all the negative reviews are true.
Horrible place. I’ll stick with the local music stores.
5. Pro Flutes
Address: 678 Sperber Ln, Grand Junction, CO 81506 , Mesa County , Colorado , United States
I purchased a Muramatsu flute and a Pearl piccolo from and sold my previous piccolo through Sherry since moving here 11 years ago. She also repairs flutes and has been in this business for years. She is knowledgeable, helpful and fair. Thanks for my new flute! I love ❤️ it!
I came across Sherry’s ad while reading a need article. Her as was straight to the point. “Better flutes”. I used to play the violin and know the difficulty in finding a quality instrument and great service and while I wasn’t looking for a flute, as a female small business owner I was inspired by her. So, I took it upon myself to look into her some more. What I found was a lot of flute “message boards” talking about how they were disappointed in service elsewhere but were going to try Sherry!
I know not everyone has time to write reviews but I’m here to say that everything I’ve read about Sherry is amazing and her webpage speaks for itself! Definitely check her out!
A shame they are going out of business. Great buys! I just got 70% off on a great drum!
Wow, “going out of business sale” yet when I told them I was there to spend $$, they wouldn’t let me in the room with the expensive classical guitars. I might have bought several,like 3 or 4 of the them and a banjo and an amp and…..
I guess we know why they are going out of business… They don’t want to be.
They unethically over sold me on several instruments. I paid a grand for a $600 trumpet when I was in middle school, when I didn’t know better. Same thing with other horns.
No communication between customers and staff/owners. Dishonest, they don’t seem to care too much about their customers and care more about money than actually having good customer service.
The owner, John, very rude.
