My son damaged his saxophone 2 days before his Allstate Audition. How that happened is another story but I called Jackson music to see when it could be repaired. They told me it could take 2 to 3 days. I came the next morning and Doug, their repair guy, was gracious enough to come give it a quick evaluation on the spot. Although he was extremely busy between repairs for two different stores he told me he could fix it that same day. True to his word it was restored by end of day. Appreciate him going above and beyond!! This JM store has always provided great service to us!
Great customer service, if product is not in store they will have it for you in a couple of days from one of their other stores..very friendly and informative..highly recommend.
A great family owned music store. They are fairly priced, knowledgeable and friendly. My go to place for instrument repair.
I come here for instrument repairs. I’m a professional musician that need his instrument asap. Mark at this location always fixes my sax perfectly. I’m going for a repad in the next two weeks
Great shop for band instruments as well as player instruments.
Good selection of accessories

DO NOT GO HERE!! i went in to rent an instrument for my daughter for school and got such negativity from THE OWNER’S WIFE. First i was questioned because i only gave them my cell number and refused to give them my 13 year old daughters phone number. I got questioned 5 times if she was really my daughter simply because we have different last name and that was after i told her it was for my daughter. “Are you sure its your daughter?”. Then she said “i am going to be honest, this whole last name not matching throws up red flags for me” and gave me a weird look. I told her i will gladly go elsewhere and to put the stupid instrument back. I will not be questioned with such stupid questions that clearly have an underlying issue to them.
Everyone else was very polite and helpful so kudos to them , their service was good.
Rude! Told them I was just looking around at the moment and was laughed at…. shameful behavior by talentless jokes!
Overpriced
3. Hootenanny’s Music
Address: 572 Maddox Dr, East Ellijay, GA 30540 , Oia , Georgia , United States
If you play an instrument this is the place to get your next one.
Great people . Really nice verity of equipment. They do lesson and repairs .Also they have a coustom leather worker there . Prices are super reasonable.
Decent selection. Very nice staff encourages playing the instruments. They might even jam with you. Cool place overall!
Great prices, friendly people
Went here purely to find an acoustic to put my fingers on while I was on vacation… had 3 electrics because I’m recording on the way back home… but wanted an acoustix… but tbh I had a hard time finding something I could justify. I was looking for a throwaway type instrument but one that didn’t lose intonation when fretting an 11th fret for example, due to string action. Found one I almost bought but decided not to… the only section I was semi into was the very few in the back right side of the building where there was a strat, tele, LP (cant Remember), Martin acoustic….all of which were appropriately priced. None of which were at such a deal I just had to get it… was easy to walk away.
Very nice people.
4. Musician’s Warehouse
Address: 245 N Lumpkin St, Athens, GA 30601 , Oia , Georgia , United States
I love Musicians Warehouse! Huge guitar selection, great prices, locally owned and right in the heart of Athens!
Have been looking all over Athens for this little screw adapter. I’m not the kind of person who likes to order online and wait for thing, especially this little hardware. The staff at the musician’s warehouse were extremely helpful and looked for this thing. Thank you so much.
Great experience and friendly staff.
Could be a little more organized. Drum area needs more open space. And more displayed of items. Seems pretty congested.
Check out the new location!
Nice selection of stringed and percussion instruments. Pretty decent prices, too.
Dude I’m not sure what happened. The first floor is desolate (empty for everybody that’s currently reading this while dunk). I understand social distancing, but I’m I am attending Warehouse, I do not care about the current situation, I’m here to rave. Open the first floor for a mosh pit.
Poor selection. If you like grandpa guitars this is the place. Wouldnt recomend to any modern guitar players.
Really wanted to like this company. I was cheated and conned, and after a week with zero communication I contacted them. They fumbled around for another day or two then stated they couldn’t find the item. I was left empty handed and confused. No attempt at finding the item or ordering another. Nothing. Zip. C’mon guys!
5. Hickory Wind Music
Address: 671-799 S City Blvd, Waycross, GA 31501 , Oia , Georgia , United States
The owner offered to tune and check my just purchased used 5 string banjo. I couldn’t get it to stay in tune. Lo, it was the tuners at fault. All the screws were loose. He fixed them.
Sounds beautiful
Thank you
KFC, no other place like it, wonderful food and service I would go there every time
Extremely nice guy . Full of knowledge.
Very small shop has a large selection of guitars and amps not much in other musical instruments not a whole lot in books to learn how to play nothing in the line of piano lesson books or keyboard looked like nice selection of guitar strings and picks staff was friendly Just not a big store.
Had to return vapes 3xs
6. Town Center Music
Address: 4072 Suwanee Dam Rd NW, Suwanee, GA 30024 , Oia , Georgia , United States
Town Center Music is a place that goes above and beyond ! I took mu bass because I was having trouble with the connection. Fender had this place listed as a repair shop. I’m an hour away. So I drove not knowing what to expect. The person there ( I forgot his name ) told me that it would take a few weeks before Fender approved or that sometimes it takes a while. So he got to working on it. He took the piece apart , found the problem and soldered the part right there! I had no appointment , no nothing. He told me to have a 1/2 inch screwdriver on had for regular maintenance that i could do myself. The best part: No charge! I bought a bass cable ( it was the least I could do) and wrote this review. I believe in real reviews. Always read them before I do business somewhere and this is real. I trust this shop to work on expensive gear and they are very honest. I hope I don’t have to take my instruments but if I do this is where I would take it. Not like your regular big box music stores where no one says hi or you are just a number. Thank you Town Center Music and all your team ! I forgot to write this sooner but here it is. Five starts!
A string on my 8yrs old daughter’s guitar broke. I searched and found Town center music. I called ahead to speak with someone before driving down there. The guy who answered was pleasant and answered my question and gave me a quote. When I got there I was happy to see their COVID precautions! He fixed my daughter’s guitar string quickly. I was so pleased with the service that I bought a guitar strap and will consider their virtual private lessons.
You walk in, you’re met with both eye and ear candy, and you get the space you want or the answers you need to explore it. I used to drive to guitar center when I needed things, but now I just ask these fine folks and they either have it, or know how to get it, or have something better.
Good
Much better store I not been here in a while the past manager was not a music guy or a manger known as a air head I will be back
Taught my kids to play guitar
Took down my review. Owner ultimately seemed to care about his customers. Too bad everything is so politically incorrect. Anyone still remember Archie Bunker?
But to clarify what idiot would try to exchange something opened, like a reed.
Amazon prime still winnnning.
Store is dirty poor selection not real big
Went in there a couple days ago. Not a huge fan. Workers aren’t very pleasant people and they come up to you every 10 minutes kind of giving you the hint to leave if you’re not gonna buy anything like you’re in there too long.
Great for beginners I guess. Don’t come in here expecting higher quality equipment and experience. Name of their game is to hook beginners onto cheap equipment (which is totally fine) and get you out. No hanging out in there jamming for an extended time.
