Mr. C’s specializes mainly in guitars, ukes, and keyboards, but they also carry some woodwinds, strings, and music. They repair band and orchestra instruments and are quite knowledgeable about music and the instruments they sell. Ron and Clancy are personable. helpful, and friendly.
For the longest time, I thought Mr. Cs was a magician’s store. Turns out I was fooled and it ended up being a music store. Either they really are magicians or this is a legit music store.
A fairly basic music shop. I buy reeds and little accessories for my sax – it does the job. Sometimes they’re out of stock, but that’s to be expected. Guitar-wise, they have enough. Instrument-wise, it’s a pretty basic selection. Good prices, but you get what you pay for. Lots of beginner Yamaha, nothing outstanding. Decent selection of music. The current person fronting the store is helpful and friendly, but doesn’t go out of their way for the customer, in my experience. That is definitely something that sets apart a good shop from a great one, so there’s that. Overall though, it’s a place that will do.
As of August 2019
Mr. C’s in no longer here, it’s now Clancy’s Music
I had a wonderful experience here and I recommend it for your instrumental needs, great prices, great customer service, thank you Clancy Ferril for all your help.
Waited in line for about 20 minutes before
Guitar
They don’t have good stuff. It’s like a place for beginners. Didn’t have what I needed either.

Friendly staff and a great selection of cool used guitars and amps
I occasionally find cool used gear here. The staff is pretty cool. Tim is cool along with the rest of the crew. I usually don’t get repairs here but the tech seems cool too.
Great service
God services and God price
Online order
Ordered a Jackson at a great price, used. Shipping took a little while (about a week and a half, I guess I’m just used to crazy fast shipping speeds like amazon. Felt like a lifetime. I’m in NY so it’s completely understandable )
Guitar looks great. There are some very very slight nicks and dings (as to be expected with a used guitar, however it would be nice to have the imperfections highlighted in a picture or two). Guitar is full functional and has no mechanical problems; however it did not come with the whammy bar. Not a big deal at all, they are only a few dollars. It would have been nice to have that listed in the description though so I could have had one ordered before the guitar got here. Again, not a big deal at all.
Overall very happy with the guitar and will be ordering more from them in the future. Thanks guys. Wish I was closer and could come check out the rest of your stuff in person!
Some very nice items within the store. Some of the staff are unpleasant. Specifically the guy who sold me a Martin acoustic with some tone wood splits on the reverse. I purchased the guitar, but he told me in no uncertain terms that they would not take a return. I reminded him that the tone wood was split and that the split could expand. Essentially told me to go F myself in not so many words. Please remember that many of your customers are likely professional players who just may happen to have more years on you, and in particular, performance time. Unknown to him, I do have skills at repairing acoustic instruments. Attitude could have been a bit nicer. I may not go back because of this.
They took 5 days to ship a small package. The label was created but the package was not given to USPS until 5 days later. I called on the 3rd and they told me USPS had not picked it up. I called again on the 5th day and they told me the package was dropped at USPS the day after the purchase which is a lie. Take responsibility for not shipping the item instead of bluntly lying.
Overpriced used music store better off at a real pawn shop, they try to rob you if you sell to them and if you buy from them.

Address: 2312 Pacific Ave, Stockton, CA 95204 , Morada , California , United States
Great customer service! He knows his stuff Always gives the best deal! Honest and trustworthy knowledgable people. Hardly anymore shops like this around
Super sweet and nice customer service Favorite music store in Stockton
The new owners are very friendly and knowledgable. We rented an instrument and the process was quick and easy.
Three stars because its local and dindt want to hurt em with the 1.5 star I feel Is deserved for this work. Might be different for other services.
Here is why:
Sadly, my loving wife took my professional trumpet bell to them for a bent bell repair as a birthday present.
The store repairman was shocked that I dismantled the bell from the rest of the $2500 professional model horn.
He didnt know that I’m building a custom horn.
He was just disgusted.
Well first of all it’s my horn to do what I like with, I didn’t buy from them!
I was excited to have a “professional” fix the bent bell and dinged mark’s because they would do a better job than me! I understood that there would be crease mark’s from the repair. I didnt expect scratches a d uneven repair and dents to be left in.
I play professionally part time and am building a custom two bell trumpet from and out of other exspensive trumpets. I want a pro horn when Imdone and am using pro horns I like, to build it out of! I e worked with metal and am proficient in welding and soldering.
$32 to fix the bell was very reasonable! I’ve been quoted $50 elsewhere and have seen great work for that price in Oakland and they even cleaned and polished for that price.
But finally got my bell back today and the work I see is not great. It will all have to be redone.
It looks to me that no pride in workmanship was taken and his disgust in my taking the horn apart was perceived as not caring.
I fricking care a lot!
Complete waste of time and money. And no I dont want to go back and give em a chance to make the bell worse.
Tried to give local store work and keep it in my town. But dont take a pro brass instrument to a guitar shop and expect to have quality work done.
Now I’ll have to ship it out someplace probably out of state because the guy in Oakland retired.
My project delayed now even longer!
I went to this place because I have a Ukelele to fix it. I believe the owner help me whit it and I how this place has diferente instrument, and he rent too. If he do not have something he can orther for you. Nice place!
#family business #small business . The guys that run this shoppe are the best! Super helpful and unlike the old regime. The manager usually means the front while the owner does repairs. The selection is not large but the service makes up for it. Especially recommended for instrument rentals and school instrument repair.
this store is really bad they guy is racist and also has bad quality products
Came in to get a pair of decibel reducing earplugs for use in live sound. Guy behind counter referred me to a $15 set, but during the show had a high-frequency ring in my ears: better sound with foam earplugs. Would have paid a bit more for quality, but I guess this was all they had. Ordering pro-qualitu set online.
Very strange place. Mumbling person up front, just woke up i guess

ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC PLACE TO RECORD!! GABRIEL IS A OUTSTANDING PRODUCER ; VERY PATIENT; TALENTED, AND ALL AROUND GOOD PERSON!!! I RECOMMEND MERAKI MEDIA HOUSE TO ANYONE!! BEST IN THE BAY ; HANDS DOWN!!
Such an amazing studio
Took off with our deposit of $2250.00 and now will not pick up the phone or return our phone calls. Update: He finally called me back and advised that he read the reviews that we have been leaving his business online. He advised that he wants to get this resolved and that he is going to refund the deposit. I got a text from him saying that is going to cut the check and put it in the mail on Dec 6th 2021. Being that we are not far from his location, and the fact that it is Dec 15th 2021, we believe that we should have received the check by now, or at least a phone call to say that there is a delay, but nothing. We still do not have our money that he took.
Went in to grab some sticks and drum heads. The gentleman who runs the place was knowledgeable and actually gave me a deal when I purchased multiple items. It’s a super clean and organized music shop and I definitely will go there anytime I’m in Lodi and need some music equipment!
Very very helpful!! Thank You! Resolved my issue quickly and kindly!!
Friendly, knowlegable , good inventory.
Very friendly staff. Always satisfied when I go in there.
Purchased a clarinet from Chris great guy!
Nice people until you try and return a guitar.
This is the second time in with an instrument to trade and have been shot down before I even showed the man , I called the night before about it, I wasted my lunch brake and left a little upset like I was wasting his time.
They never have nothing restocked, I come back a month later and still nothing. They never have things I want, even the more common one. it’s just a bad store for me.
I can’t express enough how glad I am that I happened upon this place. I have recorded in many good studios such as the plant studio in suasalito and more,, and Studio C is the best studio that I have ever set foot in. Great engineers willing to go the extra mile, and just a great atmosphere. If you want stuff that only you like, record anywhere. If you want stuff people will buy, come to studio C and be open for advice. Its your album, but any suggestions they have is from experience, and to help you
The studio is professional and Sam York! thank you for your engineering
Great recording and good ears it was a great session it wont be the last God Bless!
Sam is one of the best! Totally professional yet down to earth and friendly. I would recommend to anyone needing an engineer that can bring your sound to the next level.
Price is too high, $80 for recording, $80 for mixing, and $80 for mastering. That’s $240 right there and it’s not the best mix I paid for, too pricey
