You must come to this place! So cool place with awesome neighbourhoods. Love the park near the music place. I wish i can see some live music performances while i’m in this county!
Took my flat top in because the action was to high. Friendly and best of all my guitar plays better than ever. Thanks!
This music store is a rare find in these days of large corporate music stores. The owners are in the store to give personalized service that you just can’t find anywhere else. Scott is an experienced instrument maker and repairman who has worked miracles on instruments thought to be ready for the trash. Shay is a multi-talented multi-instrumentalist who is a wonderful teacher as well. You might walk in while they are jamming with their daughter who is an amazing fiddle player.
This is a great place to buy anything music related. They even have small gifts. A definite must-see when visiting Mountain View.
Fun and nice
Broke a string? Lost your pick? Need instrument repairs? THE place to go!
Great place
Rude and very hateful people. I have been going here for more than 10 years and I will never go back, and be treated in such a rude manner.

Been using Palmer Music for years for lessons for my kids. Great teachers and excellent experience all around.
They rule!!
Very helpful, knowledgable, and welcoming staff. Good selection of quality acoustics, electrics, and pedals. A+
My guitar was in for repairs for about 4 months. Almost no communication was provided about status of the repair work. It’s understandable with Covid making it difficult to have parts shipped, but the lack of adequate communication was uncomfortably disappointing. I don’t blame the young individual who was working on my guitar, but rather leadership who should have provided direction on appropriate and timely customer service communication. It doesn’t matter to me that it would have taken considerable time for repairs. But the lack of communication stating that due to a backlog in parts, and it was just a waiting game, would have been enough. A 30 second phone call every couple of weeks or so to advise a customer that no progress has been made is better than nothing…it would have been enough to have left my guitar there for months longer. The ironic thing about all this is that I really like the store and the people at Palmer Music, so I will most likely continue to purchase my music supplies from them and I hope my experience there was a one-off….
I was looking at electric guitars and they didn’t offer to let me plug any of them in. How are you truly going to know if you like one or not if you can’t hear the sound.
Usually busy because they’re good at what they do!
Went in expecting to buy a new guitar on 01/26/2023. The man behind the counter was very unfriendly & unhelpful.
I found one I wanted to buy but I just didn’t really want to give my money to a person who didn’t know how to smile.
Another employee walked by and was even more emotionless than the other guy. I left feeling very unwelcome.
I will not be back.
Go to GUITAR CENTER instead (you can actually have FUN there).

Great place to shop or just get information. I really enjoyed talking and looking around. Bought my strings at a great price. Very pleased.
Dolan is a great guy and his store Joyful Noise is the best around.
Quick story, I recently went to a small guitar shop in fort smith and was treated completely the opposite. The owner was 1 guy who works on guitars, sells used junk at high prices with an attitude to boot and he was the worst, rudest and nasty music store owner one could ever meet. I wont give his name but he could take a tip or a few million from Dolan, cus he cares for his customers!
Thanks again Dolan I definitely will be back for sure.
Wow..Gretch guitar dealer very nice.
Great pricing as well thxs..
Was not open

Great people, a very old store
I went into to buy a guitar. Very small selection
Lots of sheet music and DVDs but it is all on the computer today. Wonderful people. I wish them well!
My visit was to test the integrity of an electric guitar I had. Spoke to the guy behind the counter. (The one with the gray streaked goatee). Told him I was preparing to sell it via Facebook, and all I want to do is see if it sounds as it should. He said it was ok I was like great thanks. The buyer was from outta town and was shopping for guitar supplies. She had just bought amp still needed a cord possibly more. Asked her to meet up there since she was just down the road. She wanted to go in do to the rain. Instantly he started ranting that he’s a business man a professional and I was shady for what I had done. I was very polite. My reply ( I’m sorry I brought you a customer sure she meet up with me to buy a guitar for cheap but she still may need something) she was there for his childish act. ( she replied I do need a cord) He didn’t even bother to respond to her. He looks at me says someone smells bad like cigarettes… Wow 0 stars for your sir. Where’s your public relations at. Your welcome for that sell.

Excellent place to shop. Staff was very knowledgeable and helpful. Will definitely recommend.
Some employees are better than others. Inventory keeps us coming back. Bought a $1800 guitar. & much more. Been nice if they would had set up the instrument. That service should be part of the sale & never have asked for. Moving product & commission shouldn’t surpass service. But just my thoughts. Still give 4 stars.
Showed curbside pickup and in stock for an item, drove 30 min to store and they apparently don’t have any in stock. Waste of time.
I drove over an hour to GC with cash in pocket fully prepared to purchase an electric drum kit. Sadly, GC was so understaffed that nobody had time to assist me or answer a few simple questions…… You guys missed a good sale…… Thats a bummer for both of us.
Poor service and staff was even more less knowledgeable
