Great work and great detail. I will not go anywhere else for my repairs.
Great place to get your guitar or amp worked on.
Good service …I like this place..
If I could give them negative stars I would…I waited almost 2 years to get my amp back…Brian never picked up my calls, when I went in person he was out on “vacation”. After finally getting it back he turned on my “fixed” amp and smoke was coming out further damaging it….he didnt charge me, but overall the worst busniness Ive ever encountered..
I called and asked to help with picks installation the guy said they have too much work and I should fine specialist elsewhere. I ended up doing it myself.

Kurt knows his stuff! Decent rates and times! Used to practice here for years before my band broke up.
Kurt is cool. Been jamming to there for years.
Better sound than the other rehearsal studios in the IE.
Primo is indeed the best place around for band rehearsal or any artist looking to dial in their sound. Kurt the owner and operator has an incredible wealth of knowledge when it comes to all things sound related. He has for years treated me so great and just makes coming to Riverside worth it even if the show is in another county! Primo will always be the home of Born Live and any other band I work with in So Cal.
Poor service and poor selection of audio equipment
Brought my tube amp in for repair. Turnover was fast. Price was reasonable for the repairs. Will go back again.
Awesome
Thus far we’ve had great experiences with them. I bought a guitar for myself and a loved one and we’re taking lessons there. The instructor has been awesome. The staff is very friendly and informative. I notice some of the negative reviews are endorsing other stores so I won’t take them seriously since it’s likely those stores staff posting the bad reviews themselves.
Very helpful but need cheaper price on some clarinet reeds.
Large selection of musical instruments and the staff don’t mind us trying it out. Good service and selection.
Very helpful and nice place
Horrible customer service. I was quoted a price and after 3 trips to pickup my instrument they raised the price on me
The employees were very nice and helpful (for the most part), but I spent a month waiting on an instrument to get shipped to their store so I could rent it. The guy who was supposed to be in charge of it would never call me back. I’m not sure whether it’s the store’s fault or the warehouse’s fault that every time I ordered an instrument, it would “ship” and then never show up because it was never actually shipped. Either way, I have auditions and couldn’t wait anymore so I took my business elsewhere.
Send my guitar for set-up and never see and talk to the technician and tell the salesman about the problem and they said they will fix it and took the payment. But when i got my guitar the problem still exist.they to send it back twice and never fix the problem. I will never again to send my guitar without seeing a technician and a work shop in a store. I learned my lesson. Beware!!!
Excellent overhaul of my clarinet by Gloria! All pads were methodically seated… Being a player herself, she understands the instrument and what needs to be done! Thank you! The whole crew are super friendly!
Fast and efficient. They are very knowledgable and easy to communicate with. I enjoyed my repair experience and will come back again.
Great service, very friendly and great guitar repair ! Will definitely keep visiting in the future (: DO NOT GO TO GUITAR CENTER FOR REPAIRS EVER… INSTEAD GO TO JKEAA !
Update: We had a recent issue with being given much higher pricing on an instrument we rented than initially quoted. However, the manager got involved and, while the price we paid wasn’t what we were initially told when we first rented it, the final price that we ended up paying for the instrument was fair. It’s a good store. There just needs to be more consistency among the staff so that customers feel that they can trust what they are told.
the employees who work here have a great attitude and will help you with whatever you need the prices aren’t to high and they have good quality for their products. this is the only place i go to, to get any thing i need for my guitar such as picks and straps. I highly recommend shopping here!
Things have changed at the music repair shop within the last year. It’s all about money and not customer service and satisfaction. On top of that I had a conn 6m alto saxophone that I took to them over two years trying to get fixed correctly and after shelling out over $500 I repair costs I finally took it somewhere else who guaranteed to get it fixed right and said they never fixed the problem.

He repaired more than we requested (even the sticky case clasps), in less than an hour for a great price! He even spent extra time answering all of our random questions. Highly recommend for accordion repairs and service!
Great fast service. Very experienced
I dropped off two accordions to be tuned and repaired two months later picked them up and I’m disappointed in the job. I paid $800 and I took them home after playing the accordions the running was not done properly.
12. Guitar & Bass Lessons Riverside California
Address: 6944 Coronado Way, Riverside, CA 92504 , Pedley , California , United States
Ian is very professional, was well prepared. The music was beautiful. I highly recommend his services
For your event
Ian Kauffman made was the icing on our wedding cake! I was deciding who I should hire for our wedding ceremony and when I spoke with him on the phone, I could tell that he was professional and experienced. That was worth the money. He played what we wanted in his own soothing style and I am looking forward to hiring him for our baby shower party and maybe even the house warming event! He also played for our cocktail hour and almost stole the show! I could not recommend a better live guitarist! Thanks Ian!
Ian did a great job playing for my party I was very impressed with his talent, he easily stole the show was a big hit with all my family and friends. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a talented live musician for any style of event.
14. Guitar Center
Address: 2550 Canyon Springs Pkwy A, Riverside, CA 92507 , Pedley , California , United States
Nice acoustic room helpful friendly staff and larger then most
Lessons for my 6 year old guitar enthusiast have been great. The instructor’s patience is commendable
I only go to Guitar Center when I absolutely have to and to get something pretty ordinary. This time for a power conditioner. Would have stocked up on picks, but they had everything but what I would normally buy. Staff is lazy, shelves are stocked half a##ed. Pretty typical.
Literally every single thing I looked at in the drum department was mislabeled.
Zero stars if I could for a terrible corrupt company that hides FELONIES of their employees and hires them!!! This company should go out of business!! I recommend no one to enter a store of this company!!!!
Stop by today 2-19-21, would have like to buy a Guitar. But store was almost Empty. And no one to help me. But I did Manage to talk to someone, but no help.
The employee talked me out of get a Guitar. (Lol). ( Imagine that!)

Luke is super nice!! The rooms are clean and are super comfortable to play in!
Awesome place
Great studio in Riverside. It’s such a relief to have a solid place to rehearse that is closer than LA county. Their rehearsal space is more than adequate for even larger-sized bands. Our rehearsal included 3 mics, which was great for our setup. They even have equipment available for rental, which really helped out our drummer.
I also recorded a small, 3 song demo at their facility. Their engineers were incredibly knowledgeable and very easy to work with. The demo came out much better than I had expected. I would certainly go there again.
Decent prices
Very good
16. Cruz Violins & More
Address: 4124 Sunnyside Dr, Riverside, CA 92506 , Pedley , California , United States
I’ve purchase a lot of antique violins and had them restored by Epi Cruz. He does incredible work. He’s a craftsman. He also makes beautiful violins. Riverside is fortunate to have him.
Definitely recommend checking this place out. Owners are very kind and seem to be very authentic. They definitely know what they’re talking about when it comes to their instruments. Overall, great experience. Would come again!
Excellent customer service, good prices, good selection and HE KNOWS what he’s talking about. He makes excellent sounding violins. His rental prices are very good. My wife is a violin teacher and she was very very happy with him.
This man can Tech you something new every time you go see him he is an amazing man
There was to many people around while he was explaining things to me than I was comfortable with. There wasn’t a private area to receive instructions.
17. Eden’s Technical Services
Address: 10515 Arlington Ave, Riverside, CA 92505 , Pedley , California , United States
Eden is an old school problem solver. It has been said that the greater part of genius is patience. Eden exemplified this at every juncture throughout the work. I brought him a difficult job he had not specifically done before and, despite appallingly miserable support from the manufacturer, he navigated his way patiently through to a resolution. I am a technician problem solver myself in another field, and I could not have asked Eden to improve upon the final result. Thank you Eden.
Very, very friendly and full of helpful knowledge.

Excellent customer service by the staff. Nice variety of instruments.
W shop
I love everything about them very very helpful and they don’t pressure you into anything and they know alot. I love this music store.
Barbara.Avalos
Gives you stuff for instruments and it sell instruments too
Helpful staff.
Really good music store. Only thing is that if you pay with a really big amount($100) for a small priced item($15-$40) they is a chance they might not accept it.
Poor customer service was told we had a certain rental credit amount that could be applied to new instrument but that amount stated was changed when the final price of the instrument was totaled.
Very disorganized….
Poor customer service. I felt like I was at a rude liquor store.
