So so good to have a music store right in Pahoa. Devon is the best. He has been fixing my guitars for years (since he was up in Keeau) definitely support this awesome shop. We don’t wanna go back to having to drive to hilo everytime we need guitar strings! Also checkout his handmade guitars, I’ve played a couple, they are fire!
Excellent Music shop! Repairs, new and used instruments.
Thanks for the setup yesterday. Guitar sounds so much better today.
Fabulous place for Guitars & Accessories.
They ripped me off. Idk I’m pretty bummed about it.

I had a very positive experience with Michael at Mana music studio. He is personable, kind, considerate, efficient, knowledgeable, flexable, uderstanding, supportive, and creative. I spent many hours in the studio with him making the album Ukulele Sunshine. He is highly skilled and fast when it comes to recording. He did an excellent job with the mixing and mastering and in my opinion doubled the quality of the recording tracks ending up with a very professionally produced album. I can not think of even one negative thing to say about him and his studio work. He is one of the finest men I have ever met. His studio rates are very reasonable especially when you consider his experience and expertise. I highly recommend him to anyone considering making a professional quality recording.
I highly recommend Michael of Mana Music Studio. He’s talented in mixing and mastering, and he does the MOST to ʻauamo the kuleana that comes with producing and making Hawaiʻi music. From the ways he’s supported my expression as an artist to the ways he’s been open to conversation about ʻōiwi (aboriginal) concerns, Michael has been a pivotal asset to my personal and professional growth. He absolutely goes above and beyond to ensure that each step he takes as a producer is done in a way that is pono (ethically appropriate, necessary, and right). As a kanaka maoli (+mauli Hawaiʻi) artist, I absolutely recommend Mana Music Studio.
Michael’s attention to detail and quality is unmatched. There isn’t another recording studio on the island that can compare to the quality of his equipment and expertise. If you’re looking for top quality, look no further! I will definitely use this studio again in the future.
7. Big Island Guitars and Music Supply
Address: 1221 Kilauea Ave #10, Hilo, HI 96720 , Nanawale Estates , Hawaii , United States
Super friendly, knowledgable staff…..great for lessons, new guitar and amp or just a set of strings……..
I go there often to get my guitar set up and buy strings. Spencer always sets up my guitar perfectly and makes sure he helps me anyway he can. Definitely big islands best music store.
Scored at this awesome place in downtown Hilo! Very knowledgeable and friendly. Check em out!
Spencer is a very personable individual who is very knowledgeable. The store itself is quaint and stock can be limited but it has pretty much everything that’s needed in general.
Drove an hour , website said open, answering service said open, closed during advertised business hours.

Was ok just is.
Went in today to get a price on how much it would be a month couldnt get a answer was told I had to make a appointment which would be two weeks out, then was told I could buy a one day pass for 55 dollar which I was shock by the price.. Guess I will stay at PENN’S FITNESS
I have never been in this business. Since I’ve never visited this establishment, how am I qualified to review it.
Today, 9/3 at 3:40 pm. I entered Black Lava Vape Pahoa. I waited 5 minutes as the employees there were helping a couple. No one said, I’ll be right with you, no one even looked my way. So, I left. NEVER TO RETURN! Who ever manages this location should train your employees to greet a customer, at the very least. I had no problem waiting my turn, I will not be ignored when I am there to spend my hard earned money at this location!
