I’ve been doing business with this music store for 40+ years. In my book they are the best!
The crew at Hart Music are awesome! Knowledgeable, helpful…they are the best.
My brother and I have been buying guitars and other equipment from the Hart family for 36 years and they have always had fair pricing and provided quality in equipment. Jan is always there with a willingness to please. Very pleased.
Good selection of strings and such. Friendly staff, clean store. Used gear is almost 50% higher than what you could find on reverb.
Cool store
Was sold a keyboard being told by the salesman it had a USB port to hook it up to the computer, write music with it and that it had touch sensitive keys. Wrapped it up as a gift for the daughter. When she opened it, we were telling her how she could hook it up to her computer and she was really excited. Then she started playing it, no touch sensitive keys or USB port. The very reason we bought it. So disappointing. We took it back, were told so sorry, our mistake. You can buy this one for 50.00 more that has everything you want and when you want to trade that one in, we’ll give you a great deal on it. We paid 172.00 for the keyboard at Harts music….I found it on Amazon, same keyboard for 99.00. Wish I would have checked Amazon first. Will not be going back to Harts Music totally took advantage of our ignorance in keyboards.
Not impressed! My first experience with this shop, I brought an old acoustic in for some setup work after I switched to lighter strings. I did a neck adjustment but still had e string buzzing and a b string ring. I needed a new nut, and & bridge adjustment, fret leveling too which I explained, but Jan absolutely is clueless I guess all he heard was “string change”. I have a bunch of guitars I can do basic work on them and I’ve been changing my own strings for 30 years! but Jan promised me a pro would look at it and contact me to discuss the repairs. They shined me for a week, never tried to contact me as I promised, then all they did was change my strings (and they even put the wrong ones on!). Now all the strings buzz! So I’m right back where I started. I’m local too & gave them every chance, they failed miserably.
Bought a bass before I had a cell phone.
Was marked $1200, scratched out, marked $800, scratched out marked $600. Nice bass, thought it was a good deal. Missing hard case so got a soft case instead.
Found out later the retail price is $400.
Deceptive pricing.

Address: 1224 N 25th St, Grand Junction, CO 81501 , Orchard Mesa , Colorado , United States
I needed my sax fixed while on tour. Roper found me a part and got me back on the road quickly. Fantastic service. Great store.
They’ve had everything my middle schooler and I have needed at comparable prices.
Good service. And veru friendly and knowledgeable.
Always good , good service, people are always nice
Roper is good if you’re looking for instrument repair or beginners music etudes and books. If you want instruments or instrument accessories, or more advanced music, the other music stores like JB Hart, Mesa Music, or Back Porch have more product options.
Good friendly service and selection of musical supplies
Bad customer service! They gave me the wrong pay off on my rental and then charged a late fee a month later. They wouldn’t waive it and stated that they know they have bad customer service. Wow!
Also, good luck having someone call you back if you leave a message (most times the voice mailbox is full so you can’t even leave one). Not once did I get a call back.
Rip off – their lack of patience with me has cost me a few hundred dollars, but it will cost them my business for life and perhaps others as well. Get your instruments elsewhere.
Used to be a customer of 30 years, all of my life playing music – until today. Purchased an instrument case and I wasn’t 100% sure about it and the young person working that day said oh yeah, you can just bring it back for any reason for a refund as long as all of the accessories are still with it. I read my receipt and it said there is a 14 day return period and other various terms. I was within the 14 days and the other terms didn’t apply to this item. Upon returning the item a different person was there and as soon as I said I need to return it, had an attitude. They even.proceed to tell me my refund was $xxx amount, but took that back and said oh we have this 15% restocking fee. I said the receipt has the terms of return and a restocking fee isn’t on there.Why don’t the sales people point this out on large purchases. She just sighed and said nothing.This is what we get for trying to support local businesses. Save yourself the hassle and go somewhere else.

4. EverLove Studios
Address: 291 E Parkview Dr, Grand Junction, CO 81503 , Orchard Mesa , Colorado , United States
Awesome record shop for music collectors, frisbee golfers, and gift shoppers. The vibe is laidback, quirky with lots to look at. The staff is chill, but helpful and knowledgeable. They are happy to do special orders. They actually had THE CD I had been looking for (Yes, I still listen to CD’s). Grand Junction Main Street stores and restaurants need your support and patronage now more than ever due to the pandemic. Shop local. It’s so much more fun and Amazon doesn’t need any more business. Triple Play all the way!
They have so much to choose from, it’s almost overwhelming, but more fun to dive in and find a new to you treasure! Most everything I’ve gotten from them has been in good shape. They let me exchange the one record I got that skipped, without any hassle. Definitely recommend!
They got it all man
Huge selection of Vynil. Some CDs. And other assorted goods, such as pipes, frisbees, and t shirts. Neat place.
Sad there were not allot of used discs… I’ll be back in the spring!
Cool place. Really took me back to childhood.
Ive been in and love records,tapestries and frisbee golf. I dont mind paying. But when i was in Oklahoma new mexico and even colorado. Places that sold frisbee golf disc allowed you to turn them in would give no more that two calls to the owner to return for no fee. Triple play makes money off everyone else trying to be good sports and return things. So the person who finds the disc if they dont or can’t call turns it into Triple play they dont give any money to who turned it in. Even if that person did try the owner. Now Triple play has it. So to get your own disc back you have to pay. The person who called you wanted to return it. Didnt ask for money said or willingly drove it down there so people could get it then the business takes advantage of that and makes money. I bet if you lost your wallet in the store and someone turned it in they would ask for money so you could have your wallet back. Same concept and all.

Amazon: $1.99
Triple Play: 19.99
Poor customer service! Was shopping around and asked for a trash can to throw away the candy I was eating and was told to go outside and throw it away. So I went outside and didn’t come back (:
6. Grand Valley Music Co.
Address: 2486 Patterson Rd, Grand Junction, CO 81505 , Orchard Mesa , Colorado , United States
Awesome little local music store with instruments for you or your kiddo! You can buy, rent, or rent to own.
They also have lots of sheet music, including all the books, reeds, ligatures, rosins, oils, cleaning kits and everything else you need to survive having a kid in band or orchestra.
Brand new store yet very well stocked with a wide variety of instruments and decent accessories with more to come im sure.
The Staff was very helpful and seem to sincerely want to meet our needs and patiently answered all our questions.
The prices are reasonable with some exceptional savings on certain items, and a pleasant surprise they give Military discounts to Veterans and Active Members, Well done greatly appreciated !
And lastly, thus far all my purchases (bass,amp,cables, guitar stand, guitar strap,music stand and 2 instructional books etc.) have been of very good quality, the Ibanez bass is a stunning blood mahogany red with a beautiful gloss finish and crisp pick ups and sweet timbre.
Overall a great place for musicians to feed their musical interests.
Update 06/13/2023
Purchased a few more items
ProLine complete MIC PACK.
Comes with mic, mic cable, mic stand, and mic clip. Plus mic case and case for entire ensemble. Overall quality to price ratio is excellent. Passive mic so you will need an amp/ power source.
HARBINGER LV7.
7 channel mixer with Bluetooth. A lot of bang for the buck and lots of bells and whistles, nice pre-amp.
ZOOM B1Xfour.
Multi-Effects Prcoessor with expression pedal (for bass). Very user-friendly interface and good basic effects to begin with and you can program many more. Built-in Tuner which is very cool and easy to use and Built-in drum machine that has a nice punch and decent kick to it.
This review is mostly for the repair shop.
They did a great job setting up my 2009 Les Paul Studio (I purchased online “as is”). It was in real rough shape like totally unplayable and my wanting to switch to lighter strings didn’t help it. Fixed the hump in the neck, the most noticeable problem & adjusted everything else. The guitar now plays like new again set up with 9’s & with the Burstbucker Pro’s it sound’s frikin awesome!!!
It was done in 24 hours! I picked it up just after opening day after I brought it in.
The cost wasn’t bad, less than what I had expected.
The folks in this store are very cool but
honestly I’ve only purchased strings at the store, the prices are competitive & they’ve always had why I needed.
I don’t buy new guitars! never have never will.
Like many of you I haven’t had the best experience with Guitar Center online so I was kinda anxious about going to the Grand Junction store, but it’s a local store and they do a great job.
I love this place. They are open-minded, kind, friendly, and helpful. The staff is amazing! Christian is the best!
Horrible place. I’ll stick with the local music stores.
Read all of Guitar Center reviews, then go into the store. You’ll soon see all the negative reviews are true.
Miss Amy is organized and always thinking of ways that would motivate the kids to learn piano. She makes it fun and interesting. My kids have enjoyed special events she plans such as summer camp and a Christmas party. She is also the most affordable I’ve seen around the valley.
Jessica made a hand-cast for our wedding and to say it turned out beautifully I feel is an understatement, it turned out amazing! She is fun to work with, the whole time we were in her studio she was warm and welcoming and she was always making sure we were shown every option available to make the project exactly what we wanted. There is a special artists uniqueness and charm about her and her work that is rare to find and she really takes the time to get every detail perfect!
Amy is wonderful with the kids! Very reasonably priced for high quality lessons in a comfortable atmosphere. My kids always look forward to their piano lessons with her! Thank you Amy for all of the extra hard work that you do to make piano lessons a special experience!
Art and Erica are fantastic musicians and performers. They are very professional and their studio is so cozy and welcoming, hospitality A+. I love working with these two so much, can’t say kind enough words. Highly recommend, they are very talented people. I will definitely be back for all of my future events! Amazing experience.
Highly talented and passionate musicians/producers/engineers. Art is a beast at mixing/mastering, taught me key techniques I will now use every-time to prepare my final mix before mastering. Erica and Art are talented individuals and are capable of turning your ideas into finished songs. They also offer lessons for beginners and advanced situations. Artica Productions is a professional one stop media production studio for your next single, EP, or album project. I look forward woking with these guys again highly recommend.

I sincerely hope that local hardware stores can stay in business. Everytime I come to this store there’s at least two people wanting to help me. And, 9 times out of 10 I end up getting exactly what I need. Great location, great service!
Great hardware store. Lots of absolutely everything. The employees are very good.
Awesome, had every thing I needed
Staff always have great knowledge and experience.
Easy to get what I need and get back to work.
Always great service. We always find what we need.
Prices are high but they are very helpful and have a good selection, also the only store on orchard mesa
They always have what I need. The associates are very plesant
Owner is rude, staff stereotypes everyone.
ALL OF THE PRICES ARE TOO HIGH SKY-HIGH THEY CHARGE SO MUCH FOR NOTHING IT IS AN INSULT TO ALL OF OUR INTELLIGENCE WHAT YOU ARE CHARGING EVERYONE.
This man is the hardest working DJ I’ve ever seen. He’s versatile with his sets. He can perform an EDM set that will break your neck or a perform pop set that will take you back to your childhood and remind you of the first time you fell in love. This man can do it all and he does it very well. Highly recommended
Absolutely incredible. Very easy to work with and performance ia top of the line !
I’ve worked with him in the past and he’s super professional and knowledgeable. Has high quality lighting/sound equipment and knows a ton about setting everything up. He’s also an excellent DJ and person in general, very friendly and easy to talk to. Highly recommended!

The “security” shut us down for an open drink. The guy barged in on us 3 times in 15 mins each time with an increasingly hostile demeanor. He then called in Paul Blart Mall Cop to escort us out even though nobody refused to leave. We were packing up. Never returning. Hope you find better management.

Jason has been really great to work with! I work for a nonprofit in Grand Junction, and we’ve utilized A Stage For You a couple of times now for fundraisers and community events. Jason has always been great to communicate with, professional, and always goes above and beyond. His setup is great, and makes our events look wonderful. He supplied sound for our band at the last event as well, and it exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend A Stage For You!
Colorado band here!
We showed up in time to watch the stage go up and the sound system get tuned. It took one guy less than 2 hours to get his stage from on the truck hitch to show ready! 10/10 would recommend
Equipment loooked and sounded professional on time service. Highly recommended.
