On several occasions, have I entered the store to try and possibly buy guitars, and every time I am treated terribly. I am 14 years old and have been playing guitar for 3 years, no matter what though, I am constantly treated as a child and told basic beginner tips. Even after telling them how long I’ve been playing they continue to tell me 1st year tricks. Just to add to that, they constantly try to sell me stuff I don’t want or need. Upon telling them I’m not looking to buy they continue to sell amps, cables, guitars, strings, and picks. At my most recent visit, one of the employees, an older man with glasses, was selling something to a customer. My amp was at reasonable volume and wasn’t bothering anyone. Regardless, the man had told me to turn it down. I was reluctant to at first, but did so anyways because I didn’t want to bother anyone. In return, he turned his volume WAY louder than mine was, to the point where I could barely hear my amp. After two to three minutes, he told me to turn mine down some more so he could his up louder. I was in the store for only ten minutes, and immediatly felt unwelcomed. Like I said, this is not the first time this has happened. I honestly recomend taking the drive to guitar center. The employees their are much more customer friendly employees and reasonable prices.
I would rather give no stars as they have the worst customer service and always leave my son disappointed.
I have purchased several items from Dorsey music over many years. My first purchase was a beautiful B.C. Rich Bich guitar in 1988. I understand both types of reviews presented in Google reviews. The sales people have always been money motivated and rude. I expect poor service when I shop there. Dorsey music is not a store I rely on to answer questions or for professional advice. I go there specifically because they have a product I want and it serves my instant gratification. Their prices, however, are competitive and they offer brands and products that are not sold in every other store. I will continue to shop at Dorsey Music, sporadically, as the need suits me and if their price is right.

Rick is a very cool and knowledgeable guy and is spot on with his guitar work and set ups. I will not take my business anywhere else. He knows his craft well.
Super nice guy. Reasonable prices.
I have purchased guitars and gear over the years from Rick’s music, I have always received Professional Service and friendly advice on all my guitar needs.
I always have Rick do adjustments and repairs on my guitars, because his work is top-notch!
I recommend people to him because of the good job he has always done for me!
I had Rick set up my guitar. He did a Fantastic job. Fast and reliable. One day service. I would Recommend him all who needs guitar service. AAA++++
Rick is a great guy, and there’s always a gem or two hanging on the wall. Good prices, too!
Last Saturday I took my most prized possession to Rick, I paid to have a set up and new strings put on my Epiphone Les Paul 1960 Tribute pro. When I got it home I pulled it out and wanted to play it. I noticed right off the bat that Rick took a Utility knife or some other tool and shaved off the binding all around the fret board The fret board has gouges all the way around and the frets stick out and gouge your fret hand when you try to play it. My guitar is completely ruined! I haven’t slept in several days I’m so pissed. I in no way implied, asked for or mentioned that he do this to my guitar. I can’t even open the case it makes me so sick! I would not recommend Rick to anyone again. Rudy Rodriguez Nampa Idaho

I take online piano lessons from Jimmy. His knowledge and expertise is amazing! I learn so much from him, and he incorporates music theory which helps me with reading music better; sometimes I’m disappointed when the lesson is over. It’s been 35 years since I’ve played piano, but I’ve been able to catch on quickly. Jimmy also offers discounts when I buy books, which is great.
Jimmy at Exodus Music is a very talented musician and a wonderful teacher! He is very patient and really works with you individually to help you grow as much as you can. I highly recommend him!
5. Dunkley Music
Address: 513 W Karcher Rd, Nampa, ID 83651 , Nampa , Idaho , United States
I go here to get my cello fixed and repaired. They are very reliable and helpful. Over all, this is the best music store I have been in.
Visited the Nampa store for the first time today and found the piano books I needed right away. Shelby came over to me when she was done with another customer and she was very helpful and has a great personality. I will be coming again in the future.
Had the unfortunate experience with a different local music place instead of going to DUNKLEYS FIRST!!! As soon as I walked in, I felt instantly comfortable and welcomed. No credit check needed! Made me feel important and made me feel valued. Will only do businesses with these folks for instruments moving forward. Xoxoox thank you Shelby!!
Would not recommend. Very unwelcome vibes. Zero chill music store vibes lady just wanted us to leave the second we got ther. The lady I dealt with was rude and tried to gouge me for my money.
I’m the director of the worship ministry at the Journey Church in boise and I brought Drew in to help us fix our sound issues. We had some serious phasing issues among many other problems that I just lacked the skills to assess and fix. Drew had our sound system working properly and sounding better than ever in a very short time.
If you are a church with sound issues I cannot recommend Drew’s services enough. He’s basically a sound wizard.
“I just don’t have enough words to share the amazing experience my daughter and I had during her senior photo shoot with Drew. She is a total introvert and Drew took the time and interest to figure out what makes her tick…from her love of her new blue Adidas, to her fascination with photography. For my kiddo to say she was having fun (3 times during the shoot and non stop afterward) was the best gift a mom could ask for!! And then we saw the pictures…….wow! We have a family/business photographer for life!! Thanks from a grateful mom, Drew!!!”
The recordings made by Drew are the best I’ve ever had both musically and vocally. Drew is very easy to work with, he made me feel comfortable from the start. That makes a huge difference!

Nice pianos. Bought our Steinway from Blaine. He completely rebuilt a 1901 Steinway grand and did an great job❗Definitely a place to go.
He has a great selection that is very affordable. Amazing customer service and great personality.
Blaine was very knowledgeable and patient when it came to all my questions about which piano to buy for my interests. He’s an incredible pianist and it was just a joy to hear him play all of the pianos. We bought a Yamaha P600 upright that he repaired and sounds absolutely beautiful. Delivered it and tuned it same day we purchased it!! He has more pianos in stock than what’s shown on his website, so definitely give him a call and check his place out!
This place rocks. Al is the real thing. Something for everybody. The cream. Tight clean and neat. Bouncing with happiness. Groovy baby. Attitude adjuster.
Amazing atmosphere with some amazing music and even better owner/employees! Ive been looking for great record stores near me and i will most definitely be returning!!
Awesome! The go to place for all your audiophile peeps
Went here and browsed for a bit. Decent selection. Was unable to purchase anything however, as the owner spoke in riddles and I was unable to decipher them
Nice little record shop.
Beautiful collection of records, not over priced and a great staff
Until recently, I’ve been blocked from this page. I have absolutely no idea why, even after leaving a positive review (which I can no longer access, edit, or take down). Reading some other comments on here, it doesn’t suprise me that the owner would do something like this.
