The staff here is exceptional. We had a situation occur in our family and there became a major issue with our account. My sister spoke with Greg and he was so understanding. He spoke to his manager (I’m so sorry I didn’t get their name) and they worked together to rectify the situation for us. We greatly appreciate their kindness and understanding towards us. In our time of sadness they worked together to rectify this situation for us. We greatly appreciate the kindness and understanding towards us. In a time of sadness, their acts of kindness has really gone along way.There are still good people and caring companies out in the world.
Fixed my flute up all nicely, along with a great price.
During the quarantine, I decided to work on an old dream – learning to play the harp. Cadence Music had in stock the brand and style harp I most want to play, and delivered it too. Everyone I spoke with was professional, efficient, and kind.
I will say they have made an extrodianary effort to correct the issues we had. They have a fair rent to own program. The only reason I am rating 4 stars is because it did take some time. Overall make sure you are very clear what you want and what you will get
I broke a clarinet and without a problem the next day Cadence Music picked it up and fixed it very fast about 4 days and while it was being fixed I got a loner…GREAT EXPERIENCE
They had what we were looking for and easy parking. I found the customer service average; clerks on duty seemed less than motivated to help.
Be Very careful with this company. They charged me for a Rental on a snare drum that i never saw or even asked for. They said they delivered the drum to a Middle school for my son and the school knew nothing about a drum. Cadence then sent me to collections for $800.00, I found out about the drum from the collection company. FRAUD
I had my oboe fixed there about a month ago and when I got it back it was still broken and it cost $150 originally for them to do nothing to it, but on the bright side they polished the keys so then it made it look like they actually fixed my instrument
The owner is extremely rude and the employees are incompetent. I usually go to Mostly Music in North Fort Myers because the owner is nicer and knowledgeable about all instruments. he is not just out to make a quick buck by ripping off students. I am going to try First note in the Cape next because I heard, from a music teacher, they are less expensive and more honest than Cadence.
Cool store. This place rents and sells pro sound and lighting and presentation equipment for most any event size, from a small band gig or conference or wedding to a stadium event. The guy behind the counter was friendly and knowledgeable. He took the time to answer questions and showed me some solutions that i had not seen before. Their showroom is as big as a typical music store, but the building housing the store is a warehouse full of equipment that they rent.
We had a small house party for my 16 yr old who wanted a glow party!
What a success! We loved the customer service received from Zach and Fred, they made things really easy and the suggested equipment was perfect!
We are extremely pleased!
Thank you!
We will definitely be back!
This business it’s been here for years. It’s a good option if you need some party equipment rental.
Very good services
So far so good
5. WD Guitar Shop
Address: 17570 N Tamiami Trail #1, North Fort Myers, FL 33903 , Olga , Florida , United States
Great place for guitar parts. I have been buying here for years!
Knowledgeable luther and friendly owner. Would go back again. Good selection of beginner and moderately priced guitars, acoustic and electric. Lots of amps and supplies. They sell ukes and mandolins too.
This is a cool local guitar shop I found on vacation. It is small on square footage, but big on selection. Very reasonably priced and brilliantly displayed. Lots of beautiful instruments and supplies. Definitely worth a stop in, if you’re a guitarist.
It’s small…nice place to start.
I love this place! Always willing to give me a good deal. They have everything! A great experience!
So I’m on the ‘net’ looking for Grover machine heads… Well, I found the most expensive ones here!! Now I know everyone likes to make a buck and have a profitable business, and I certainly don’t have a problem with that! But the prices here are $20.00 or more a set than say Stewmac or other on-line retailers. And no…. WD Music price doesn’t include “free” shipping! So my take on WD Music? What a joke, take your business elsewhere and save a few hard earned dollars in the process! These guys must think musicians are either ignorant, foolish, or have plenty of disposable income! Obviously there are better and more affordable options and choices that WD Music!
Your sign said you were open at 10:00 .. I waited until 10:10 and left, not before watching two additional customers leave during that 10 min. interval. Probably won’t be stopping in any time soon.
Buyer beware: Multiple times I’ve brought shiney new guitars in for minor repairs or upgrades. EVERY time the guitar was returned with scratches and dings that were inflicted while in this shop. The guy who is always behind the counter acts like he’s doing you a favor by saying Hello, never mind delivering a good customer experience. What a terrible shop!!
6. Mr Music, Inc.
Address: 12951 Metro Pkwy #3, Fort Myers, FL 33966 , Olga , Florida , United States
Brought my daughter in, she just started taking a strings class in Middle school. She chose the violin. I have no idea where to even begin! So I called up Mr. Music and spoke to Bob and he showed her a few things and tuned for her for free. Super grateful! Thanks!
I have had to bring in several different pieces for repair including an electric guitar, a guitar amp, and an acoustic guitar with issues ranging from cosmetic (new knobs and switches) to serious internal issues (Fender Amp, broken inputs + reverb) and every time they have been repaired back to perfect condition. Quick turnaround and also a very reasonably priced selection of all the accessories you could need. Highly recommend.
Had everything I needed for my banjo.
I took music lessons here for a while. Everyone inside was really nice and the instructor was really knowledgeable.
I didn’t like that I was being pressured to pre pay for continued lessons even though I couldn’t with my work schedule. When I told them I couldn’t schedule anything further until a week of two, the guy started telling me i would lose my spot and there would be nothing he could do.
Overall, not a bad experience, just really put a damper on it.
Plenty of parking , decent customer service, good selections of instruments , prices not that good, sales rep tried to push sales instead of suggestions.
Nice Place but very pricey… A lot of things you can get on Amazon for way cheaper.
Carl says he’s “reactionary” teacher (no lesson plans). Be prepared to tell the teacher what you need to learn??? 6 lessons and what I learned is how good Carl can play guitar and that it’s a really difficult instrument to learn. What a POS! Dave (the owner) is okay.
Can’t give zero stars. If you feel like you need to form your own opinion that’s fine. But I can promise you that I never write bad reviews. Take it or leave it.
Made a HUGE mistake purchasing a digital piano from Mr Music, Inc – Fort Myers. I wanted to support a small local business and I did something I don’t usually do and purchased it without looking the product up online. I figured I would be paying a little more by not buying from a big box store but turns out I paid over DOUBLE!! And the owner is very firm on the no return policy. Do NOT make the same mistake I did. I take responsibility for my lack of research but am disappointed that this small business is ripping people off so bad.
7. Total Music Source
Address: 901 East Industrial Circle #10, Cape Coral, FL 33909 , Olga , Florida , United States
Wonderful staff, they obviously love the place and their customers. I love taking guitar lessons and chatting with Paul and Kim in between. Definitely would recommend, and prefer it over any other store in this area.
Great local music shop! Friendly and knowledgeable staff!
Product and customer service are both 0 stars.
10:17 am not open…site says open incorrect.
Unsociable Staff and Harrassing Owner has a lack of genuine empathy when it comes to services for students in the local area. Too busy threatning local businesses over miniscule situations. I highly recommend Cadence Music Store or Guitar Center in Fort Myers for more prompt and reliable service. Worth The Drive!
Guitarist’s paradise! All in one place with helpful staff.
Patient, helpful employees despite the fact that there were only two of them for many costumers – and I wasn’t the easiest of them. Thank you!
If you need repair on an instrument that’s the place to go. If the gentleman there can’t fix it and feels it can be repair he will get you in contact with someone that can.
Staff friendly
I’m used to seeing the guitar centers from the bigger cities… This one has virtually no choices for mid level basses at the time of my purchase power. Despite their pitiful stock, they no longer haggle on prices. This entire chain is just like every other chain out there now. Might as well order off of an online store where you can get the gear and make monthly payments until you own it. They ship never before played instruments so you know it’s play history is brand new and not hung on a wall being fondled all day for weeks to months… They also have next to nothing in effects pedals and a disappointing selection of acoustics. Their vintage wall was nowhere to be found… Guitar center corporate will force guitars that are found in these lower status stores to be transferred to a big city store or a grand opening store… Sure it makes the big store maintain their reputation in a flooded market, but their smaller stores suffer from it. I will be shopping mom and pop stores if I need to get new equipment now. Or AMS or something akin.
Hate that these employees don’t pay attention to customers
Every time I go into a guitar center the employees are too busy being rock stars rather than being the store clerk they are.
Was planning on buying my first electronic drumset but couldn’t even get to the door before one of the workers who I guess is also a doctor stopped me and my dad and wouldn’t let us inside because we wouldn’t wear a mask. You would think they would let you in after telling them that you are planning to spend a few hundred dollars but I guess not this place.
Worst guitar center I have ever been to. Service is beyond slow. Waited over an hour for help. This happened more than once.
Very talented singer and piano player! Hired him for the grand opening of the new community center at our country club. He played a great selection of songs and definately helped to make the event successful!
Tony O played our community Welcome Back event last Saturday. He was very easy to schedule and responsive to my inquiry. He arrived 45 minutes ahead of the start time and set up early. His performance was outstanding. Our community has a wide array of ages and he played a variety of music to serve all. There was a lot of dance tunes for all to enjoy. I highly recommend him for any event. We will be scheduling him again!
I had my 50th party in Naples Florida, I hired Tony O to perform. From the first time I spoke with him it was easy, we picked songs together and he was a big hit at the event. He showed up to check out the location a few days before the party as well. I would highly recommend Tony he is a professional. Oh and he can sing and entertain as well, the crowd loved him.

Diane & Rosa make me smile everytime. Thankful for them
Very nice and accommodating.
I spoke to Jay for the first time today on the phone after my husband placed an order for our daughter’s birthday present a couple of months ago. He blew me away with his good-hearted initiative. Our order has been delayed due to the current worldwide logistic challenge. Jay was very thoughtful and generous to lend us a piano from his studio so that our daughter will have it on her birthday. I was speechless… Although we didn’t end up taking the offer, still his action was remarkably kind and it speak to the type of person and store owner that he is.
Shopping at Jay and Kay’s is always a pleasure.
Friendly and knowledgeable … good experience!
This is more of a music school than a music store if that makes sense. Sure, there is some sheet music and instruments for sale, but it’s obvious that they are for the student teacher relationship. The staff guy was pretty nice to me and I got a good vibe of the place though, just not really my cup of tea
I’m new to the area being only 4 years in Cape Coral. While our 1st home we built didn’t have room for a Piano. I made sure that our 2nd home we are building now does. With all the shortages of product inventory I decided to buy a Piano now. Being a former business owner I try to buy everything from local companies. I called Jay & Kay by phone I explained exactly what I’ve told you above. I said to Jay I’m picking up a sandwich from Parkway subs and illl be there in 20 minutes. Upon my arrival I entered the store. No greetings. I walked around for about 25 minutes. No one ever approached us. I took a card off their desk and wrote a note. Left my phone number. No one has ever called me.back. That was on 07/26/2021. Not sure why Jay invited us to his showroom with detailed instructions of their location. Waste of time. I drove down to Piano Distributors and then to Nicks Pianos. I was greeted very well by Anthony and Nick at each location. Then I drive to Dave’s Piano’s Tamps area again another professional very knowledgeable as well. I compared the 3. I made my selection and place a deposit on the 60k piano
Don’t bother going to Jay & Kay they don’t need to waste your time
Sadly to say I wanted to buy in my local neighborhood. Support the local businesses after the Covid 19 destruction.
I personally left their business card on the counter and had wrote a note on the back asking them to call me with my phone number on it. Crickets !!!
13. Educators Music
Address: 110 NE 2nd Pl, Cape Coral, FL 33909 , Olga , Florida , United States
My daughter had clarinet lessons here and we rented to own a clarinet – they have always been easy to communicate with and super awesome – I recommend them!!
We went to open mike night at the Cafe attached to Educators Music. We listened to six excellent local artists. Awesome evening!
Owner has moved his van an the world is right again.
Decades old institution in SWFL. Quality teaching for various musical paths and a modest store with competitive pricing. Fun laid back cafe with live music rounds out the experience of this gem in cape coral!
At first I thought it was a decent little store. It does not have much of a selection, but it had guitar strings, which is what I needed at the time… then I tried talking to the sales person. He wasn’t much help, and seemed like he had better things to do.
It got worse when I was talking with the owner. I was trying to make small talk with him, but he was a bit standoffish. He Became rude when I was telling him that it was an interesting little place, but I’d come back I like it. After that he acted like I should just buy the strings and get out… which is what I did.
After that experience I have decided that I will not be buying anything from them.
Sad to say one of the worst experiences as a consumer I’ve ever had. I’m a 47 year old new drummer (less than a year) who bought a Simmons electronic kit from a private sale. My ride cymbal stopped working and I went here for help with troubleshooting the problem, remember I’m new! The employee that initially helped me was AWESOME! I explained the problem, he offered a possible solution that I hadn’t thought of, and even pulled up Simmons site to offer more help. The owner very impatiently and abruptly interuppted, told his employee “he can wait”, as the owner motioned my direction, and instructed him to handle a phone call!!! Since when do you interrupt a customer in your store, standing right in front of you, who may end up purchasing something to handle a phone call!?!?!?!?!? The owner very impatiently and disinterested listened to my story, looked at his computer, ran the cursor over the “800 number ” for Simmons and said ” I don’t carry or service Simmons products, you’ll have to call customer support”. I was half way out the door as he was saying this!!! Kudos to the employee for attempting to help a new musician!!! But PATHETIC service from the owner. So what they don’t carry simmons?! Maybe someday I’ll be ready to upgrade to a fancy electronic or acoustic kit and need a good store. NOT THIS PLACE EVER!!! I LOVE to support local business instead of big box stores, but Educators will never get a dime from me.
I couldn’t believe the horrific experience my family had at this place would not recommend. Terrible management and employees. One of employees called my mom a racial slur and everyone just laughed when she asked for a manager. They also made fun of her vehicle to her face . All of this unprovoked, It’s sad what kind of people still can run a business. If you are a p.o.c don’t step foot here .
DJ John was everything we could have asked for in a DJ at our wedding. He got every detail perfect! From the song selections to the timing of events, he nailed it! It was so refreshing to have a DJ listen to what we wanted out of our music. I’ve attended a lot of weddings that were just mundane and the same as every other wedding, same music, same dances…boring! He kept the dance floor moving and he kept the bride and groom happy! I will definitely be recommending him to anyone looking for a wedding DJ!
Love this store. Close to home and usually have what I need. Clean and friendly.
I love it so much I go there almost everyday
Good service
Regular stuff nothing special
Friendly staff
Make sure you take pictures of prices because it always brings up different at the register
Shelves are empty! Looks like they are going out of business! Couldn’t get what we went there for! Workers rude! ! Not helpful!
Won’t go back !
The whole store was totally trashed
Very disappointing the woman that was at the cash register had a cold and was sneezing the whole time I was there and handled my product and handed it to me I’ll probably catch a cold
