Navata: Overview of the top 20 music shops

So excited to start learning how to play!

Pro audio at it’s finest. If you need gear or tech work for your gig, give George’s a call.

Great music store, helpful staff & if they don’t have it in stock, they can get it for you. It’s nice to have access to local shops versus Big box stores.

If you’re not looking to go too far to get musical instruments. Look no further. Expensive though. But if you don’t care about prices, go for it. Not much of a selection though.

Nice shop

Meh

This place is just awful. The owner is so rude to us that i will never go back. We rented an instrument from him because our normal music store didnt have the instrument and when the instrument broke he said it was our fault and that it wasnt covered and then bad mouthed our local music store.

After going to this place; I must say I will never go back there again. The owner is so rude and disrespectful. Its not even funny. The owner needs get off his anthropocentric state of mind.

Excellent shop

Ian is excellent and the rest of the crew are excellent as well.
They are very knowledgeable about every instrument in the shop. Very customer friendly and will go the extra mile to make sure you are happy with your purchase.

I had one of the most positive guitar store experiences anywhere at Acoustic Music.

I called ahead specifying the guitars I was interested in checking out, arrived with them all ready to go in a dedicated room to play them in. No straining to hear the guitar over other players, no need to feel self-conscious, nobody hovering over me. Huge thanks to Ian for being super helpful, friendly and making it a great experience!

Had a guitar cable when I needed it.

No prices listed

Not many mandolins

Thé Owners are lousy business

Purchased a Les Paul from them online, but it turned out it had already sold and the website hadn’t updated. Joe, the owner, refunded me immediately and personally messaged me, and also offered to let me know when the next one arrived. Fast forward a couple weeks, and now I have my Les Paul with some extra goodies from the shop. 5/5 customer service! I will gladly continue to take my business here, even though I live all the way in Texas.

Been having intonation issues with my guitar for a while and GM did a fantastic job getting it recording ready again. Eric and Bill were so professional. Bill took the time to do the adjustment in front of me so I know what to do in the future. That shows a real passion for the craft and for service, not just trying to get you to come back in to make a buck.

Truth be told I got my first guitar here in 2006 and and they treated me with nothing but respect and professionalism when I was a beginner and now that I play professionally. I’ll be back with more guitars.

Nice Music coming out of MiAnus

It’s a nice place! It’s a bit small but otherwise it’s nice.

We were kindly helped in the store, but we were buying a guitar for our son and we don’t live in the US. We were having problems with internet so we couldn’t research correctly at the moment, but they assured that the amp could be used in 220 current. We arrived home and we connected the amp and it didn’t work. So the amp was burned. Apart from that the price was a bit higher than the same thing in other stores, it’s not nice to pay 50 dollars more, but that is just business and anyone can charge what they want. It was our fault that we didn’t do a good research before buying. But the very kind person that assured us that it would work because he used to be an electrician, and it only needed a basic adapter, was totally wrong and now we are home and we lost an amp, so we paid extra for the set and it didn’t work. You were very kind indeed, but please if you are not sure about something, don’t sell it. Because we lost money and we can’t go back because we don’t live there.

Their hours aren’t very convenient and I was having a guitar strung and I dropped it off and I didn’t get a call before the store closed and then they were closed the next day Sunday so I didn’t get my guitar until Monday and that was extremely inconvenient. They also have a very small selection of basses.Update, they aren’t even open a couple hours on the 4th of July so I won’t get my guitar till Tuesday I am very upset with this store.

Rudest customer service I have ever encountered. The man I spoke to on the phone yelled and hung up on me. When my daughter went in person to drop off the instrument for repair at the agreed upon time, he remained upset and kicked my daughter out of the store. Strongly encourage anyone looking to have their instruments fixed to look elsewhere. Disappointing experience to say the least.

Terrible customer service. Called and said I would be by in 10 minutes for an emergency repair. Guy was nice on the phone. When I arrived 5 minutes early they had closed up and locked. Super helpful…

Friendly and talented staff. Watch Ashley and Gabriel in this spontaneous performance!

Good prices and very friendly and professional people working there. I’ll always check them when interested in buying something

Great service and super helpful! Everything you need for your musical needs.

Had a horrible experience renting with this store, they refused to help and to give me a refund even though it was their fault, and they did not processed the return properly. DO NOT RECOMMEND!

Disappointing experience with stringed instrument rental. Picked up an instrument, brought it home for child (experienced player) to try and a string immediately broke, likely wound too tight or already compromised at the store. Brought it back the very next morning and was told I needed to buy a new string and have someone else attach/retune. Poor way to treat a customer.

One of the best, most complete musical instrument stores in Connecticut. They also do installs for pro audio equipment as well as lessons. Guitars, drums, band and Orchestra, pro audio recording and more. You name it, they take care of it. The owner Randy is a true industry veteran and his associate Jim is one of the best luthiers in the business. Come on by to get seriously awesome customer service. I swear they did not pay me to say this! I’ve been doing business with them since I was a kid and they’ve always taken care of me. I wouldn’t go to anywhere else..

Always a big help. I purchase most of gear from here. My Fav.

Randy and Jim provided excellent customer service and made my purchase easy and stress free.

Nice little music store. They had a decent selection of both acoustic and electric guitars and a really good selection of used Amplifiers (and a couple steals in there too). Hidden gem in my opinion

I went in today with my daughter’s violin which was bought elsewhere. It needed to be tuned and I panicked when I messed up one of the strings. I called Westbury Music and they told me to come in no problem. He tuned the violin and was super nice. He didn’t even charge me for his time. When we are ready to upgrade our violin we will definatly be coming here. Thank you so much!!!

I’ve been utilizing Westbury music for rentals or over 10 years. They are knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. They are no more costly than any other instrument rental company around. They have always been there to suggest options for my children and their interests.

Great job setting up my DIY bass. Also leveled, crowned and polished the frets. At a great price.

Ordered instrument for my son, was told to pick up the next day, went the following day to pick it up and it wasn’t there. Also bought a box of reefs for the instrument and was given the wrong kind. The gentleman that waited on us was polite, although he didn’t recognize us even though we had just been in the day before!

Staff is very friendly and knowledgable.

excellent store, good Fender Selection, nice acoustics, lessons, and school instruments.

Very helpful and knowledgeable staff, not to mention a beautiful selection of guitars. Thank you for the excellent service. I’m very happy with my Martin. This was my first guitar purchase back in 2001 or ’02. My dear friend, Ray lead me to this purchase way back then & to this day it is one of my most inspired purchases.

I have purchased and consigned several guitars, pedals and accessories at Spindrift. I built an amplifier with Whitney, who is also a great instructor, along with some other guitar components. Every time I’ve been there I’ve learned something from everyone in there at one point or another. I would recommend starting your guitar/gear search or repair here without reservation.

Very professional , courteous and knowledgeable. Very good experience. I highly recommend.

An amazing shop, beautiful selection of instruments and very helpful folks.

Shop owner very helpful with advice on adjusting the action on my mandolin. It is specifically a guitar shop.

Nice small ma and pa guitar shop

I brought in vintage Gibson Les Paul custom for a Re fret and they completely ruined it there was surface scratches ,chips in the fret board the frets were un even and buzzed. After 4 attempts bringing the guitar back to the store with the problems only half way fixed every time or even new problems I just cut my loses and brought my guitar to a real professional if you want it done right I do not recommend bringing your guitar here for major repairs

Once upon a time i was but a lowly dock worker with dreams of making it as a rockstar. I would spend nights strumming aimlessly on an unplugged SX guitar. “You’ll never amount to anything!” My hideous wife, Sheila would bark at me and i began to believe it. Then one Christmas eve, my boss gifted me with a Music and Arts© gift card for one month of guitar lessons. I jumped for joy at the sight of this wondrous gift and eagerly anticipated my new education. The day of my first lesson arrived soon and my heart was a flutter upon stepping into the establishment. I was warmly greeted by Mike and Chris who spoke to me of amazing discounts and deals the likes of which id never heard. Before i knew it my instructor, THE Paul Fredericks, descended the stairs and made my acquaintance. My lesson started shortly after that and, just as quickly, so to did my new life as a rock n roller. I excelled at the guitar, quickly forming a band and self recording and releasing a few albums and songs, i divorced my uggo wife and soon found love in the arms of Edna, a lunch lady at the local highschool and we got married. Now im happier than Ive ever been and i owe it all to . Thank you Paul! Thank you Music and Arts©! THANK YOU!!!!!

I haven’t had much experience with their sales, but their music lessons are top notch. We use Paul Fredericks who teaches my son electric guitar and my daughter keyboard. I’m amazed at how fast they are learning and by how much they want to go to their lessons. Because of the way Paul interacts with my kids, music lessons have never seemed like a chore to them. He also goes out of his way to make rescheduling missed appointments easy for me, which is very helpful as our schedule gets chaotic at times. Music & Arts lesson system is also easy to use and notifies me of upcoming appointments and changes. A+

Great people

Sales staff were not super knowledgable. We rented our son’s violin for school through them and billing was always an issue even though it was on monthly automatic payment. Glad the saga is over.

The prices are ok. The parking can be tough. The person working the desk was dismissive of my questions. Not a lot of inventory on display. They seem more about instruction.

Thank you for your service n attention. Thank guys for helping me to pick the perfect gift for my wife.

Don’t rent any instrument from this place. People are very rude. Calling customer service takes forever to get someone on the phone. Unfriendly customer service, supervisors don’t want to talk to customers. Find another place to rent instruments for your children.

WARNING! WARNING TO PARENTS!! DO NOT USE THIS SHOP FOR RENTALS! Should be ZERO stars.

We rented from here for 5 years, the first 4 went off without a hitch. This year has been an absolute nightmare. We rented two instruments, same address, same name, same payment. ONE account had no issues, the other the local store put in the wrong address (where we have never lived). Over the last 4 months I have called their headquarters, left messages, emails, etc. trying to get a paper bill MAILED so that I could pay whatever was owed. They were incapable of sending this, and every time I called in could not even find the right account or would tell me everything was fine and they did not know why I was being contacted. When asked why they could not have looked at our other rental account for the correct information they were stunned into silence. Absolute incompetency from the sales staff all the way up to the billing department supervisor who assigned our missing “account” to a collections agency and then gave us the WRONG agency. Save yourself the trouble and stay far, far away from here.

Very bad and rude customer service, hang up my phone.

Amazing place with a fabulous staff. I went there in a panic over lost audio recording gear, and Ben ‘talked me off the ledge’ in a calm and ever-helpful manner. He showed me some options for replacing the lost equipment. He also helped me install the related software on my computer, made sure I knew how to use it, and followed up after to make sure everything was going okay. Any time I’ve needed help, the Sam Ash staff has been more than helpful. This all speaks to the benefit of shopping locally– nothing like hands-on help from people who know what they’re doing!

The fellows know what they say by experience. Personable and friendly.

Like a kid in a candy store at Sam Ash

Selection and service are both top notch. No hard-sells here, just experienced musicians helping out experienced and aspiring musicians alike.

Their selection of drum equipment, especially cymbals, is meager, but the staff is always great. There’s one guy in particular (in drums) that I love dealing with, and is one of the biggest reasons I keep coming back, despite the limited selection.

After Daddy’s going out of business, this is the last frontier of smaller chain music stores of its kind in the area.

Very, very limited assortiment of MIDI keyboards, and very unhelpful staff

A friend who had just purchased a few hundred there went back with a question about a necessary piece required. This young man in the store responded with do your research. Well I was thinking of purchasing a guitar but not now ….Guitar Center was much more helpful and nicer…I will be sure to spread the word

Used to be a great place to go browse.. now it’s like walking onto a used car lot.. within ten minutes I had 6 people asking if they could show me anything, one guy asking me twice.. I was only planning on buying a guitar stand, but was so annoyed I went elsewhere….

Brought in a trumpet with a stick mouth piece. They were very nice and were able to remove the mouth piece quickly. Great customer service!

I’ve taken several guitars and basses here for setup and parts installation. The work is always top notch and they stand by it if something happens to go wrong. I’ve known Scott since I first picked up a guitar when they were at Caldor plaza (now Walmart). He actually helped my mom and I pick it out. I took lessons at the shop with an instructor named Mark right after that purchase. I would not hesitate to recommend this place to anyone.

I brought my old Taylor guitar in for some adjustments and Scot was awesome!!super knowledgeable, attentive, detailed and quick turn around to get my guitar back to me. The adjustments were just what I was looking for so now I can happily play my guitar! Very personable and friendly! Excellent service! I love the local feel! I would highly recommend this shop!

Great place but website could be better such as pics of some used equipment. I’m a drummer and would like to see what they have for new and used cymbals,stands,drum kits etc. And prices. I have done business with them and always had a great experience the reason for three stars is the website doesn’t do the music shop justice. All and all great store great people.

The cellos were in not in good shape and we had to pay a luthiere to redo repairs that were poorly done when we received the instrument.

They were vary helpful.

My long experience with Upton Bass (well over 20 years) has been unfailingly excellent. They care deeply about what they do, and they have the knowledge and skills to create beautiful instruments as well as repair basses of other makes that we bring to them. I can’t say enough about the quality of the whole operation.

Jon Swift

Great responsiveness and customer service

I purchased a ply bass that had issues out the door. The geometries where all wrong (e.g., the neck was too thin and was not pitched to the back of the bass) and it had a buzz coming from the fingerboard and bridge setup. They were unable to resolve the buzzing sound and I took it it to a local luthier to have the problem resolved. I ended up donating the bass our school district and purchasing a Shen.
Also do not purchase bows from Upton. I purchased a $2000+ bow made by J.R. Silva, Brazil, which developed a splinter just above the frog within 6 months and Upton would not warrant the bow. I now have a $2000+ paperweight.

Update, 10/28/2023:
… as to your reply, yes, I initially thought this was a great bass until I started using it for rehearsals and the buzzing appeared. I thought it was something I was doing or even due to the new bow. I drove 4 hours one way to your location to have your staff address the buzzing issue and they shaved a high spot on the fingerboard near first position and the buzzing did not appear while I was there. When I returned home and started using the bass again for rehearsals the buzzing reappeared. I wasn’t about to drive an other 8 hours to give your staff a second chance at addressing this. Instead, I took it to a local luthier who fixed the buzzing through a combination of reshaping both the fingerboard and bridge (the bridge was set up for jazz, even though I had told your staff that I play mostly orchestral music). While working on my bass, the luthier pointed out the other issues that I mentioned in my review. I am not a luthier, so I would not have necessarily recognized these issues except that through pro-longed use I might have developed muscular issues.

It also wasn’t until your staff responded last week that they could not help me with the issues with my bow that I decided to post this. I don’t like to post negative comments, but I wanted to warn other potential customers of my experience. Your staff could not even help with how I might get in touch with Mr. Silva. If you sell someone’s product, I would think you would have some form of contact information. I spent a lot of money on this bow ($2000+) and NO I DID NOT CAUSE THIS SPLINTER TO APPEAR. I do not appreciate you implying so by your comment. Had your staff handled things differently, I would not have posted this review.

You, as an owner, could have handled this differently as well. You *could* have contacted me by phone about this, instead of responding to my review in the manner that you did, and I might have considered removing this review. You could have even contacted me directly before I posted this review, as several days had lapsed between my speaking with your staff and my posting this review. At this point, based on the content of your reply, I will not remove this review.

This is my go-to store for all things music education related. From private lessons to instrument purchases and repairs, Stewart’s Music does it all! You’ll get friendly, personalized service from Sam and Jim (which you won’t get at the big chain music stores). I highly recommend this store to my students, parents, and all fellow musicians.

Great service, wonderful selection!

They are both really nice people. We have purchased instruments, books and other items for my kids music classes andboth owners have been very helpful. I needed to get computer microphones needed in order to submit homework online and I went with the idea of purchasing 2. They could have taken advantage of that and wouldn’t have been the wiser but instead, he convinced me that I only needed one. The instruments that we got from them have worked beautifully and we’ve had them for over a year now. My kids have been going there every week for music lessons and they are always very welcoming. There is no other music store for us but Stewart’s.

Terrible customer service. Took my flute to get repaired and instead of just simply fixing what needed to be done to it I was told I shouldn’t have bought an off brand flute. This was all I could afford at the time (as a teenager). I am looking to invest in a new one but honestly it is no ones job to criticize the instrument I have. I waited for the repair to be done and called 3 different times on it. The repair person got sick which is understandable. When I called the last time they said it was finished and I asked why they never called me to let me know they said that I said I was going to come in regardless. Which is true. But still does not explain why no one called me. Overall a bad experience. Was treated very poorly and will not be going there again.

Absolutely awful owners were nasty and they charged way too much for a simple repair just go to music and arts its easier and cheaper

Simple advise dont scream at your costumers to get business

Excellent local shop. Always has what I need.

Buy local from an independent and honest retailer! Great to deal with.

Nice shop ! great selection of guitars and bass. owner is very knowledgeable . nice guy as well. support a local business. If you are a guitar player or musician you will like this shop !

Ordered a guitar on Reverb and Ken always answered the phone and was very helpful throughout the process. I ordered a Larrivee OM-40 and it was listed as brand new but definitely had a dent and 2 scratches which was disappointing but overall a good experience with the process.

The guitar however has a terrible extreme buzzing noice, especially when playing on the first 7 frets of the 4th, 5th, and 6th strings…even when playing a single note and strum lightly…a terrible buzz. I can’t seem to figure out where it is coming from. I will have to take to a luthier which is unfortunate given that it is a brand new guitar. He did say he sanded the saddle down before shipping to lower the action, suspicious that is the problem.

Update: Took it into a luthier. The saddle had been sanded down, action too low, poor job with the setup. Had to build me a new saddle. New strings, and adjusted trust rod as well. Buzzing gone. Sounds and plays like a dream!

Cool little music shop. Worth going and especially if you need a setup on your instrument.

Very convenient

Marissa is wonderful to work with. She is very helpful and knowledgeable – she is willing to go the extra mile for you.

I was looking to buy a higher end digital piano. This was the best instrument buying experience of my 65+ years. Grant and the women working in the store were very helpful in my evaluating different keyboards. They brought in additional keyboards more than once for me to try from the warehouse. I was not rushed in making a decision. Their feedback as to tone, feel etc were spot on. Great overall experience!

Grant did a great job assisting in a keyboard purchase.

I whould l8ke to buy aking or yamaha euphonium

My brother bought a guitar here. While he was taking lessons they realized part of the guitar was defective, and exchanged it right on the spot even a few weeks later. Excellent service.

Music & Arts is wonderful!! Everyone is so nice & helpful. They have an excellent deal going on when you sign up for lessons – you can get $100 off a keyboard or a Free guitar!! I definitely recommend taking lessons here, renting or purchasing an instrument. ★★★★★

They had plenty of instruments, books, and other things to browse through. The atmosphere was pleasant and the staff was friendly. I will definitely be returning for musical purchases I need to make in the future.

Good music instructors, great service and great staff.

This store usually has my sax needs.

Music instructors are the best.

Buyer beware!! They charge you for lessons in advance! Staff up front can be RUDE! They give you give you misinformation and it costs you!

I rented an instrument for my son there over a month ago. The instrument was supposed to be delivered directly to the school but never arrived. Over the coarse of 2 weeks I called 3 separate times to inquire when the instrument would be delivered and was told “I don’t know, we will call you back” every time. We never received a call back. When I called today, the woman told me that they ran out of the instrument I ordered and they have no idea when/if they will get more in. They didn’t call or email me to let me know the instrument was back ordered and THEY STILL CHARGED MY CREDIT CARD HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS for the rental that they didn’t/couldn’t fill. Their customer service and transparency needs alot of work.

they were nice and informative, but i returned something and they opted to send me a check. It’s been over a month and i still haven’t gotten my money back

I got a great deal on a pre-owned Gibson that was being sold on consignment. Bobby took care of me and the guitar is in FANTASTIC condition, as described. I am very happy with my purchase. Thank you!

I went to the store to check my new guitar, which I had bought elsewhere, they were very kind and professional, explaining the problem to me and also making some adjustments to my guitar to mitigate the faults that my guitar has from the factory. Bobby and Andras are the kind of people you want to deal with if you have problems with your guitar!

Giuliano’s Music Store is truly a gift to this community.
From purchasing an instrument or having your prized guitar repaired or set up to perfection, Bobby has you covered with care and detail.

Everyone was insanely helpful from who I spoke to on the phone for customer support, to the guy that helped me out when I came to pick up the amp in store. Giuliano’s Music takes care of its customers. Will definitely be returning for anything else I need in the future.

I went needing a pack of guitar strings to find out that they were closed. Their hours online say 12-4 on Saturday. Their door said the same. Lights off no one answered the phone. The time I went you ask? 3:25. EDIT:I have since gone back and they have been very nice and kind. Which has let me to update my rating.

Good service, very nice staff and management!

The older guy really helped me with my guitar! He was so nice!

All of the staff, from folks at the register to the instructors to the director of music education, are professional and knowledgeable, with a warm welcome to boot!

Nice music store in Monroe, we bought a cute ukulele here!

Poor customer service.

Rude. Terrible service. man had no knowlege of his products and prices were too high

I just went to this store with my violin wanting the sound post set and to re-hair my bow. When I walked in there were two ladies at the counter. As I opened my case asking the the lady in the white turtle neck with straight brown hair if they re-hair bows? She snapped that they didn’t. The nice girl next to her chimed in as said out loud “She re-hairs bows?” Then the other lady gave a look and said I would need to buy a new one! She then picked up my violin and started to point out things about my only violin that were not good enough for her to re-set my sound post! I then asked “How much to just re-set the sound post?” She refused me service and said “Good Luck!” AVOID THIS PLACE IF YOU CAN! I think I didn’t fit the “type” they prefer to give services to?

Bought a second Tom Anderson from here. This guitar is unbelievably fabulous! (I throw away my James Tyler burning water 2k studio elite Limited edition after getting Tom Anderson..) Due to insane currency rate (CAD & USD) I ask for some discount, Brian deals with it very well so I can purchase within the amount. I am really appreciated.
Hope to purchase another one soon!

This review long overdue,,,Brian is by far one of the most stand up guys in the business,,period!!!,,his honesty and integrity is unsurpassed,,extremely knowledgeable,,and truly takes pride in knowing that everyone that comes thru the door has a truly pleasurable experience,and if that was not enough his prices can’t be beat!!!you definitely owe it to yourself to give Brian a call or stop by the store…you won’t be disappointed!!!

A great store with awesome inventory. Brian is a super nice and very helpful guy. Brian’s Guitars has some of the coolest PRS builds I have ever seen. One of the best guitar stores in CT.

BUYER BEWARE: If you’re shopping used online, call ahead and ask them to send you updated pictures of the instrument before you buy.

I just purchased a used guitar online, from Brian’s Guitars. It sounds and looks great.

HOWEVER: the pictures and listing posted online were not accurate. The listing said “near mint” condition. The pictures showed all the tags and plastic seals on the components still intact. When I received the guitar, all the seals were gone. There were scuffs on the pickguard, and there was a screw completely missing near the volume/tone knobs. After an email exchange, I learned that the pictures were posted from when the guitar was new. Still, why was a screw missing?

I may have scored a guitar at a sweet deal, but now my confidence is shook. Even though everything sounds fine, I’m left wondering if a screw was removed to mess around with the internal components. I’ll get that checked out, but given the inaccurate listing, I’m not sure if I would buy from Brian’s Guitars again.

I recently had a vintage bass repaired and appraised here. I left it with them to have the electronics fixed and a general setup done. I got a call that the guitar was ready to be picked up a few weeks later, but had to remind them to also do the appraisal.
I get the bass home and the jack is incredibly noisy. I called and was told that they would make it right at no cost. I take the bass back and the tech puts a new jack in. They still charged me $10 for the jack, the making it right part only included the labor (about ten minutes). I couldn’t care less about $10, but making an extra trip out (about half hour from my home) to have something fixed that should have been done in the first place, guarantees I will never go back here or recommend it to anyone.

Love the layout and they have beautiful guitars. However, customer service is lacking. I advice those that are interested in buying a high-end guitar and enjoy collecting these musical art pieces to look elsewhere as I was told so rudely. Especially if you are a minority. The stereo typing is real!. If you think this is a rant of someone that is not able to afford this level of guitars, well, think again. I have a small collection that keeps growing of high-end to medium range guitars, bass guitars , and amps. I Hope this helps someone that does not want to be profiled while shopping for their next piece of happiness.

Excellent customer service. Very knowledgeable, helpful, pleasant staff. Wide variety of musical instruments with reasonable prices.

My daughter has taken piano lessons with Brian at JC music for two years. It has been a positive experience all around. We have been very impressed with Brian’s knowledge, ability and patience with teaching young children. I would highly recommend him!

I brought my flute in for an emergency repair at 6pm on a Friday. Shawn fixed it for me immediately, and didn’t charge me! He gave me a tour of some of the used horns for sale there — great stuff! I’ll definitely go back.

My grandson really enjoyed the music lessons and they are very professional and knowledgeable. Highly recommend them.

Would like to obtain some nice brushes and some type of top hat set used and very sturdy since I break percussion instruments all the time when I perform?

My son, Roberto Luis and Rosa live in Meriden. Are you far from the mall? I have spent a lot of time jamming in Puerto Rico to salsa, merengue, etc but my favorite is funk like Buddy Miles.

Completely disappointed. I placed an order in store on a instrument that was never placed with JC music. The customer service was poorly displayed and the options they gave us was not acceptable. I asked to speak to the owner several times and would not get on the phone and made his new employee talk to me. I ended up going somewhere else that was amazing

This was a horrible expierence. They need to get their stuff together, they had already-sold instruments on shelf. They had an amazing guitar sale and when I went to buy, it was already sold! They got my hopes high and let it down and I will not give them my money any longer.

Never have any of the literature or instrument parts I’m looking for. Took 3 months to repair a trombone. I tried to return an item and they wouldn’t give me back the cash to go to another place. The owner has blatantly disrespected my mother on several occasions and doesn’t have much knowledge of much of anything outside of rock music. As far as i’m concerned, this is the worst music store i’ve ever set foot in and would not recommend to anybody.
