Any time I have stopped by they have always been very helpful.
Went in here looking for a gift for my musician friend without having much knowledge on what I wanted to get him. They were very helpful in helping me to figure out something that he could actually use that he didn’t already have. They assured me if he did have it we could return it no problems and they shipped it to my home for me since I do not live in Florida. Such a nice lady! If you are clueless like me, they can help! So true about going to the smaller shops…they actually know their products!
The management is very helpful, and the store is small but has a good stock and variety.
Knowledgeable staff. Small selection in digital pianos and recording studio equipment but will order, if you can wait.
I needed a last minute sound system for an outdoor party. All three personnel in the store were extremely friendly and helpful. I was in and out with exactly what I needed in less than 20 minutes. Thanks for helping me make my company picnic a success!
Good store with helpful staff. They always have what I need in stock as far as audio cables etc goes. I would have given 5 stars but their hours aren’t good. 11am to 7pm, come on guys.
Very Unwelcoming. This is not the place if you’re a musician and you want to touch and feel an instrument . Some employee, Mnr I think,, ran up on me and my son acting as though we were going to steal or break everything. In the end he didn’t even know is own inventory or didn’t care to help me find the equipment I was shopping for. Referred me to a online app. Very unwelcoming atmosphere. I won’t go back to this place again
These people are CROOKS!!! Ive been djing for 10yrs and I went there to have my speakers looked at (i tested them before i dropped them off) and Mike the repair guy wants to tell me that they are blown. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!? YOU THINK I DONT KNOW WHAT A BLOWN SPEAKER IS?!? PLUS I TESTED THEM BEFORE I BROUGHT THEM THERE!! They are lying money hungry thieves that prey on the ignorant. DO NOT SPEND A PENNY HERE!!!!!
Been a customer for 17 years until today;e negative coment by employees and I have one of my client on the fhone they hear that and I lost my sale,and also the store. Very disappointed
3. Music Man
Address: 2309 N Dixie Hwy, West Palm Beach, FL 33407 , Palm Beach , Florida , United States
Had a great experience. Great customer service and they were great with the kids which is a big plus. Definitely would return!
Great staff very helpful and professional.
Great location and they have what you need.
Great store for instrument rental.
Good variety of instruments and accessories. Helpful friendly staff. Good prices
They are good at what they do. They give you honest quotes for what might be needed.
Trash. Not in a good way.
DO NOT GO HERE FOR STRING REPAIRS. Or, frankly, repairs in general. I have never in my life experienced such poor customer service. I originally brought my viola to the store in Port Saint Lucie to be repaired and was told that it had to be shipped to the West Palm Beach store where the actual repair shop was. Seemed reasonable enough at the time. But this store then held my viola for well over a month, and started constantly making excuses as to why I couldn’t have my viola. Not only that, but it was impossible to get ahold of anyone at the store by telephone. I called time and time again and left numerous messages, but I was rarely able to get in touch with anyone until I actually spoke with the repair person. First it was that I didn’t tell them how I wanted it repaired (I did. Twice.) Then it was that the repair person only works weekends (she herself told me that she would come in and fix it on a weekday if needed, but they didn’t seem to care about that), and then it was that they couldn’t ship it back to the Port Saint Lucie store. Then, finally, when I finally got them to ship it back, they did it LATE. It is well over a month later and I STILL do not have my viola because of the terrible customer service. I’ve missed over 10 lessons now because of this. DO NOT go here for string repairs; they are simply understaffed.
I used to come here to have my instrument cleaned for years and will no longer be doing so. Repair shop is unwilling to accommodate professional musicians that are time sensitive. And no, I won’t be leaving my instrument that I make a living with with you for 7-10 days. That’s completely unacceptable. I even offer to pay extra for the rush. Insane. This would never happen in New York, Boston, LA, San Francisco, Dallas, or any city with pro music shops.
4. Black Label Music Group, LLC
Address: 224 Datura St #1013-1014, West Palm Beach, FL 33401 , Palm Beach , Florida , United States
The studio is very professional. It offers affordable packages for upcoming and established music artists and more. The location is one block parallel to Clematis street. The views from the studio overlooks the downtown metropolitan area.
5. AMP Shop & Music Parlor
Address: 776 S Congress Ave, West Palm Beach, FL 33406 , Palm Beach , Florida , United States
Got my amp fixed ” needed it back for a gig soon and they were accommodating ” and 2 Bass guitars all back in to working order . Never know what you will find on consignment.
I’ve been a customer for over 20 years and have always had a good experience. I highly recommend their services and inventory of instruments on consignment!
Super friendly, low key shop for musicians and their gear. Repairs, service, parts, consignments.
Good
This has been a reliable location for many years
Really nice folks but they weren’t able to fix an amp that another place fixed easily
Closing early on a Friday during season? Bad business practice. Sitting outside your shop at 4:45pm. Call ahead or schedule an appointment with these guys
12/30/16
Sold me an amp for $130 that they didn’t even check at half volume (cuts out) and called that “fully serviced” and couldn’t do anything for me when I complained bc I live out of state.
6. Hamilton Piano Company
Address: 1656 S Congress Ave, West Palm Beach, FL 33406 , Palm Beach , Florida , United States
Jim is absolutely AWESOME and AMAZING for piano tuning. My husband was classically trained from the age of 6 and ended his career at the Hartt School of Music. He plays now for enjoyment, but he is still VERY particular when it comes to his piano. His parents put an addition on their home just for his piano. We’ve been through several tuners who do not meet his standard. BUT after Jim tunes the piano it sounds great and it makes him enthusiastic to play. Thank you Jim!
Excellent company to deal with, great customer service, definitely would purchase from them again!!!
Tobias Hamilton and his company are totally a 10.0. I wanted a baby grand piano for my wife for Christmas. They had a beautiful Yamaha gloss back totally redone with new strings . I wanted a QRS player system in it as well. Three weeks after my deposit the piano was delivered to my home by his guys who also are wonderful as well. You can’t find a better company any where. I am very picky and I do not write reviews often. Also his pricing is very reasonable for what you get. Do not go elsewhere .
free tuning with purchase, but not if you’re from out of town. Edit* My apologies as it was best offer on Ebay in which you saved money by avoiding Ebay fees by selling outside of Ebay and jeopardizing whoever’s account that was. I didn’t know best offer means “discount”. if that’s the case I’m listing it for 500,000 with a 95% discount!!!! Amazing!!!! and since you took this as a “bad” review, and decided to make this public, I’ll add my side of the story as well thanks for the hospitality and “free” help loading after I had asked your employee (the one communicating back and forth) if there was going to be help after we drove across the state to load it and he said yes or we would have brought all the right equipment plus extra men to move it. You were sure happy that “someone” made an offer and were finally getting it out of there…. so ya…. thx soooooo much for the customer service
Hamilton Piano is who I always have tune my Baby Grand Piano. Chris is a very good tuner, very polite and takes great pride in his work. He also asks you if you have any concerns before he starts which is very nice. The only thing I have to say is that my appointment was at 9:30 AM and he didn’t arrive until 10:00 AM. Thank you Chris and Hamilton Piano.
all went well. on time, at bid, works great!
7. Rust & Wax Record Shop – We Buy and Sell Records
Address: 2618 Florida Ave, West Palm Beach, FL 33401 , Palm Beach , Florida , United States
Super nice, helpful staff! Definitely worth a visit. A+
I love this record shop. The owners are extremely friendly and most importantly have a vast knowledge of all things vinyl. They have a massive inventory to choose from. The best thing about them is that they thoroughly clean all of their records check for quality and give an honest grade as well as price. Great spot to boot!
Just got into collecting records and love this shop. Friendly/helpful owners and staff. Camped out for RSD and they even bought us pizza. Looking forward to continuing my collection here!
The way they set up the vinyls are wierd, you have kid cudi, then kids see ghosts(kid cudi) which makes it seem as if It’s a different person.
Nice selection of original pressings!!
Wonderful neighborhood gem, super nice team members, good selection of vinyl, prices are reasonable and some CDs and cassettes. And of course a turntable to try out the music while you are there.
The stickers at checkout are so cute.
Love the layout and ample parking too.
Hope the owners of the buildings will cut back the palms because you can’t see the main sign from the street if you miss the large pink signage on the corner of Belvedere and Florida Avenue.
I paid $15.00 for a Moody Blues album and $8.00 for a Chicago album both have scratches and are terrible sounding. I bought 24 albums and my friend bought 12 . The selection was pretty good and if had not been for the 2 albums I would have left a better review. Be sure to take the album out and examine it before buying. It’s a far drive and I was excited with my finds until I played the 2 that are not worth a penny
Rust and Wax needs to work on their event skills, they told us it was a free event and that they had 200 wristbands, but when we were in line they refused us service and shewed us away, they need a better way to manage these events and expect a lot of people to show up
Wouldn’t let me in Melanie Martinez listening party
8. Stars International Studios
Address: 100 S Dixie Hwy Suite #307, West Palm Beach, FL 33401 , Palm Beach , Florida , United States
So this isn’t just any regular studio. I would consider everything about this place top of the line. Whether you are just starting out or a seasoned one you already know the value just walking in. They have like 3 or 4 genius engineers that can get you sounds you couldn’t even imagine. It’s a really chill vibe and the owner has his sights on putting palm beach on the map. Don’t get put on the waiting list once this studio blows up.
P.S. every plugin imaginable
ive been there for a few days and it always feel like home. everybody got good energy and be trying to work forreal.
Mona was the perfect producer for my song cause his communication was on point and he worked his magic, from my feedback at different points! We’re gonna record it soon and I’m excited for the finished product. The room studio itself was easy to find and had a professional setup. Highly recommend them!
9. Roger White Pianos
Address: 1300 N Florida Mango Rd, West Palm Beach, FL 33409 , Palm Beach , Florida , United States
We had an excellent experience in the purchase process of our piano. Mr. White and delivery crew were very pleasant to deal with. Thank you so much! Ed & Marlene.
Why
Great service, quality pianos, Roger is very dedicated to making the client satisfied !!
I’m a young musician, exitingly getting my new piano, but instead ended up selling us a piano with termites. Didn’t give us anything back. Ridiculous
Terrible service. Termites in my piano. It didn’t let me put 0 stars. I’m disappointed. termites.
Had an excellent customer service experience here yesterday. I needed the bridge to my son’s violin re-fitted on very short notice (same day) because he had an orchestra semester exam this week. The owner was very helpful, friendly, and above all you could tell right away he was very knowledgeable and an expert in his craft! He was open on Sunday where most other shops were closed or the luthier was not in. I was in and out in minutes and he gave me a very fair price compared to what I was quoted elsewhere. I was shocked that my trip to get my son’s violin fixed went so quick and smooth! Thank you Tambovsky Strings! You saved this band mom’s day!
Mr Tambrovski did some work for me on my cello bridge. I was very satisfied with the repairs and adjustments he made to my instrument. I found him to be courteous and professional. I highly recommend him.
I bought the violin which Mr. Tambovsky chose for my daughter. It is the violin made by him and it sounds powerful, bright and clear. We’ve l loved it since the first day it arrived. Mr. Tambovsky is very kind and his responses are very quick. He also listened to our needs very carefully. Actually, he sent us the violin on the same day we talked on the phone. We really appreciate what he showed and offered us. I highly recommend this place.
In 2020, one of the bows got damaged by accident. Immediately after the incident, I talked to Mr. Tambovsky for help. on the same day, he came up with a solution. We are so happy with his support and understanding of the problem and we are so amazed how soon he helped us out. I have never seen the service like this before. Tambovsky strings is the best of all!
He didn’t answer the door. He smelled of alcohol. He told us and the guys behind that he didn’t want our business. He had started to leave when he realized that he had made appointments with us and the other fellow so he got out of his car to dismiss us. A very bad experience.
12. Saturn Sound Studios
Address: 515 S Olive Ave, West Palm Beach, FL 33401 , Palm Beach , Florida , United States
Fast shipping, nicely packaged, product true to its advertised grade / condition. Excellent on all counts! I highly recommend Palm Beach Vinyl.
Always friendly and a very quick and reliable service. I would highly recommend palm beach vinyl for anyone buying vinyl records. I’ve bought a lot and never once had any issues. I check weekly for the latest record drop that they automatically send to my email. The owner is a wonderful fella and his prices are more than fair!
Don’t sleep on PBV!
I lucked out finding this GEM amid being price-gouged for an AC/DC record on a FB-live record auction (one of PBV’s competitors)… ANYWAY, after I made the final-bid, someone in the live-feed mentioned Palm Beach Vinyl — & the rest was history!
PBV’s website is straightforward, the individual album “blurbs” are thoughtful & usually spot-on when it comes to condition, quality, & (generally) what to expect surrounding your potential purchase.
Prices are incredibly reasonable – and in some cases, unbelievable. Overall, the buying & shipping process is also quick, easy, & straightforward (flat-rate shipping FTW!).
Kudos to PBV + Ken + the bunch for the quality tunes & deals they’ve extended this Texas gal! I enjoy being y’all’s customer
Exactly as described and delivered in a reasonable time.
Great place to buy and sale music.
Disappointed. I thought it was a record store turns out it’s somebody’s back yard
14. Vivace Music Academy
Address: 809 N Dixie Hwy suite 101, West Palm Beach, FL 33401 , Palm Beach , Florida , United States
Our daughter is a student at Vivace Music Academy and has had an amazing experience in terms of her growth as a musician but her commitment as well! Mr. Rincon and his staff are very talented and professional!
Since I have been taking my children at Vivace Music Academy my experience as been great the staff are welcoming.The academy is the right environment for my kids to learn the art of music. My kids are definatly learning.
Mr Rincon has been teaching our children violin for years. He is an excellent teacher and very enthusiastic about his students. We highly recommend Vivace Academy.
My experience with Vivace music academy was less than what I expected. The instructor spent more time focused on showing how to hold the bow and violin then actually playing and this continued lesson after lesson. It’s pricey already so if you’re spending $200 plus/month and you aren’t playing music just holding the instrument and doing arm movements like your in a yoga class…you’re better off going elsewhere to learn (new instructor, youtube, app etc). Not to mention the unprofessionalism Antonio displayed over the phone with bashing another potential music instructor based on price due to the suggestion of going elsewhere was already a bad sign. Time management was another issue..leaving a student in the room and letting other people walk in without announcing the lesson was over is a lack of poor communication. I wouldn’t recommend this school for learning the violin..
15. Guitar Center
Address: 5025 Okeechobee Blvd, West Palm Beach, FL 33417 , Palm Beach , Florida , United States
Jay single handedly made us the happiest customer in retail history. We love our musical instruments. He is a product knowledge specialist. Very friendly and helpful.
The people there are always willing to help
Everything was incredible! Even the staff was really helpful and easy going.
It’s GC, not much else to say
Store was laid out really really well. However I was not too pleased with the service. I’m standing in front of a guy waiting while he talks to someone on the phone. All he had to do was ask me quickly what I needed (a simple cord) but he preceeded to speak to that customer on the phone the whole time while I waited. Poor customer service for sure
Only downfall they need more employees. A lot of us were waiting for a long time for assistance.
Took over 30 minutes to find someone to tell me a price of a Yamaha Keyboard.
They don’t put a price tag and there is no one around.
Asked staff and they said will find someone for me but no one showed up until half an hour later
Terrible customer experience for me today. I was standing in line for almost half an hour and no body cares to talk to me. There are more than 5 guys walking and looking busy at the store but none cares to ask me what I need or a simple “Hi” to acknowledge my presence there. I might not even bother to mention that I am Asian American but I think that would mask the other half of the story. There are several other customers who walked in after and they either got serviced or being talked to and guided in the right direction. I was just standing there by myself at the line that did have customers before me but when it came to my turn, no employee remained at that particular counter where I stood and waited for service. It seems like I am invisible to them.
I am not the type of person who always believe easily about all the racist attitudes toward minority and Asian people in America, but what I have experienced today is definitely one of them. At best, it’s a terrible customer service and at worst it’s a discrimination environment inside this music store. Entertainment avenue would be the last place I would think there are people who still look down on the Asian community or think that they can ignore them. Do they really think that Asian people living in America don’t know English, don’t understand their rights and can be mistreated and ignored? Do they still live in the past century?
I hope this store will make a serious effort to change and truly becoming an integral part of this growing diverse community we call Palm Beach. Otherwise, the community will have to reject them.
Pesima atención a los compani driver
16. AMP Music Lab
Address: 120 S Dixie Hwy #207, West Palm Beach, FL 33401 , Palm Beach , Florida , United States
My son has been with Amp for several years now and has loved it from the start! He is 17 years old now and both Travis and Nick have been such an inspiration and exceptional role model for him. He does play the piano but wanted to learn how to mix that with producing and has now even been inspired to take singing lessons. We are very fortunate to have found them when we did and hope to continue to excel with them. I can’t thank them enough for everything they have taught him!
This place is amazing!! My daughter love it, she had the time of her life with them. The instructors where almost like family. The lab full equipped, great location and super affordable tuition fees!!! We are totally grateful with them and is an absolute pleasure to recommend them. I’m sure your kids will love them!!
Este lugar es increíble!! Mi hija estaba feliz, se la pasó de maravillas con ellos. Los maestros son casi familia de lo amables que son. Están bien situados, el laboratorio musical súper equipado, y los precios son buenos para el excelente servicio que ofertan. Estamos muy agradecidos, es un placer recomendarlos y estamos seguros que les encantará a sus hijos.
Kids had a blast at Mini Mix Masters! Encouraging, creative environment for them to get their hands busy making music. They’re looking forward to going again soon
Excellent service , we hired her for a corporate event , and everything was so perfect ! , guests was impressed with her talent and professionalism . Thank you so much Maggi ! You will be in all our parties
Lo mejor de lo mejor esta niña. Puro talento a darlo todo
Wow!!!! I saw Maggi play her violin at a restaurant while we ate. she set up a beautiful atmosphere with her music, and made the eating experience memorable. 10/10 would recommend her!

19. Guitar World repairs, set up, tuning any guitar we buy guitars call or text for a quote on yours
Address: 2700 Lyons Rd, West Palm Beach, FL 33411 , Palm Beach , Florida , United States
Mick performed a full setup on my new Epiphone SG, and it plays great! He also fixed an issue I was having with my bass. Very professional and excellent service! Guitar City is the first place I’ll call for any future guitar or bass repairs/set ups.
Micheal is a great guy with obvious wisdom when it comes to guitars. He repaired my guitar in no time. I couldn’t be happier
Mick did a great job setting up my new Ibanez RG and was also able to straighten out the neck of my old Squire guitar to make it playable again. Very professional and he was able to get both guitars setup earlier than expected.
20. Soulmates’ Music
Address: 939 28th St, West Palm Beach, FL 33407 , Palm Beach , Florida , United States
Such a cute and cool record shop! There’s a big outdoor area next door with live music and film fests and whatnot too attached to Northwood Art & Music…feels like you’re really supporting local, and it’s done well!
I would definitely check this space out. Good people and even better music. A subtle space with a unique retro vibe. If you’re into Vinyl and Previous gen music, THIS is the spot. Best part right outside the door is a bar and a DJ spinning.
Great little shop, and the events they hold just outside with DJs spinning vinyl are a blast. Keep it up!
