Gave great advice on the repair of my guitar strings. The owner (Mr.Villano), made helpful and insightful suggestions. Very knowledgeable!
My experience with Mr. Villano recently was quite memorable. I needed a family member’s guitar restrung-I did not have any reference but liked what I read on the website so after calling to inquire pricing and hours I took the guitar to his shop on a Friday. He let me know the additional touch ups that he would do aside from the strings. The strap also needed to be re-placed and upon his suggestion I agreed. Mr Villano called me the next day to let me know it was ready! I could tell the difference as soon as he took it out of the case! I don’t play guitar but have always appreciated a ‘fine tuned’ instrument. He also shared with me the history of this particular guitar which was quite interesting! I appreciated the quick turn around and cannot wait for my brother-in-law to pick it up and play!
Thankyou!

Great music store, excellent customer service, great music instructors.
Nice staff. Small inventory
It would be nice if they open when they say they will be open…
I called to ask what thier business hours were on a Thursday at 1:30pm. The old man answered the phone “Villano Music”. He hung up on me I thought by accident so I called back. The second time he answered with, “didn’t you notice I hung up the phone?” I don’t think he wants his business to last. Go to Sam Ash if you want a courteous person. Wow what a disappointment.
Called the store to see if they could repair an isntrument for me and as I was calling I also visited their website. The website said closed so I hung up and was going to call back tomorrow. I then received a call from them which I didn’t ask for and I tried to explain why I was calling but the guy told me I was wasting my time. He never listened to what I had to say. I would have not given any stars but that is not an option to post. Rude.
Brought my brand new telecaster in for a setup and the owner did a good job, however when I brought it in a few weeks later to have fret sprout addressed, the owner mangled the high E side of the fretboard. It appears he used improper tools, sloppy technique, and did no protective taping. It is rough, uneven, and he also proceeded to over bevel the frets to almost 3 times the proper length so the string constantly pops off the side. When I brought it to his attention and asked him to pay to have the neck that he ruined replaced, he refused.

Perfect music awsome staff and always has good condition cheep price
Amazing store! Fantastic selection of music and movies. I definitely will return the next time I’m in Tampa!
What an amazing experience!! I keep coming back to this store over others because it’s so inviting and affordable. The workers are really nice and the store has this homely ambience and it never fails to leave me with a smile on my face.
Surprised to find it. Lots of music in stock.
Great selection. Dude behind the counter was somewhat grumpy but i can be annoying sometimes
I always find more than I can buy. Great selection. New & used
went in because Seminole music closed and I knew Daddy Kool Records sells guitar accessories so I wanted to ask if they did too. I ask an employee leaning against a case on his phone, and he looks at me like I’m an idiot and says “no were a record store.” Rolled his eyes, and walked away. I was gonna look at records too but after that I just walked out:
Edit: I was smiling in shock because this dude was rude. He never said the second part of what you describe, stopping at “were a record store.” So i think y’all are the dishonest ones. You can say whatever you want but when someone has an attitude you know it. Really professional way to handle this too guys! Insult your customers who have already been wronged by your staff
They litteraly stole the 1978 beatles 13 record set from me after he inspected them I decided to keep them and he stole them.He told me Im not allowed to
Change my mind even know no money changed hands and no paperwork was signed.
Be very careful they will litteraly rob you.
You Sir do not have the right to sieze property on some notion that there is a verbal agreement.What
You did to me was robbery.I waited for the police to
Show up.They should have retuned the property I
Told you I did not want to sell them and would rather
Keep them.
You are not a court or a judge you do not have
The authority to decide a writ of possesion over
Someone esles property
I thought they were sort of rude and didn’t give me hardly anything for like six DVDs they gave me $10, maybe exchange is slightly better.
One of the best up and coming music collectives in the Florida area. A very accepting crowd who all has one goal in mind; making music to make the world a better place.

Our committee looked at several organ installations and when we saw and heard the Rodgers in the showroom in Clearwater, there was no doubt that we would purchase the Rodgers. Installation and voicing were actually ahead of schedule. I will be playing my 3rd service Sunday, August 31 and my congregation is very, very happy with their new Rodgers – and so am I.
Central Organ has been a wonderful company to work with — Tim, and staff, have been so accommodating in helping St. Luke’s get a new organ that fits both our church, and our budget. Their service has been excellent. I would highly recommend them to any organization looking to purchase an organ.
I stopped in a week before Christmas to purchase an electric piano for my kids. They were very helpful and fair. The piano is wonderful and I would definitely recommend them to anyone.
Owner stood over me questioning about my income. Felt very unwelcoming. She claimed to do a lot of work with the church, but should probably read the Bible again. There are better piano shops where people welcome aspiring musicians…
Bad customer service, very rude

Allen and Amber were amazing staff I got what I was wanting for my pawn items I never have any issues with Pawn Max always get great service if u need a pawn shop give Pawn Max a try…
I’ve worked with the people here at this pawn Max for years they’re fair they’re honest and they’re willing to always work with me. Mikailah is the best manager i have encountered in this industry. Very professional.
Gary and Makaila was awesome, and always willing to help whenever. I did get a great deal with Gary on a Carbon Fiber brand new Bicycle…
Great service as usual. Diane is always there to help on whatever u need
Looked at few pawn shops came in here Found exactly what i Was looking for, amber gave me a great deal. I will be back for sure
Diana was very helpful.
This place is a joke. They treat people very unfair and are extremely rude because of what seems like they’re just in a bad mood so they take it out on long time customers. Amber the manager is just a mean person and has some sort of authority complex and her little minions just put their head down and nod. It’s pretty sad I’ve been going here for years and until the last few months they were great but now I wouldn’t recommend them to my worst enemy.
Wanna say they need good reviews then want to talk to you like you’re a piece of crap… Don’t go to this store especially if you have to deal with the large lady with the cat tattoo on her arm… be better
Good customer service but, Absolutely NO-ONE wears a mask in this pawn shop neither so the employees

Great selection of products! Love the kratom bar, all the people there are always so welcoming! Definitely give them a try!
Awesome customer service! Great place to hangout, nice chill environment. Manager Katrina was very helpful with showing me their large selection of vape juices and actually the one that I’ve been using consecutively for almost a month now. Definitely a great place and a new favorite of mine!
Staff is the only thing that makes this places a 4 stars! The glass prices are very unreasonable compared to others. Not a bad place for anything else though.
Doesn’t even have basic tobacco supplies like smoke filters
Very organized with a much deserved brass instrument.
Staff there is dishonest. BE CAREFUL if you’re going there and you’re unfamiliar with what you’re buying because they WILL lie in order to upsell. Was lied to by Taylor and Austin after confiding in them, will not be going there again.
Granted I thank God I found what I needed, but it will be my last time going there although it’s a small family-owned business I think their prices are a little over the top.
Waited for 20 minutes just to not get severed

I actually did not go here for awhile due to a couple negative reviews I read. Just got an amp and two Sundowns installed and it was a very quick, yet highly professional job. The guy informed me of a few issues throughout the install (on my end) and got the job done perfect. Very informative and knowledgeable staff, would definitely recommend.
Shaena is the best!! I had a BT radio installed at SNS due to the complicated wiring my package came with. Once finished, Shaena also troubleshot existing audio issues to locate and fix some wiring on back left door.
I am beyond thrilled with everything and the total cost was extremely reasonable. Thank you so much! Highly recommend!
Fast time getting underglow installed but I feel it was half assed. You can see the actual lights. I didn’t know because I got It done in day time and I noticed at night. Otherwise nice staff and cool girl that worked the front
They did a great job of adapting my old truck 2006 to a new in car voice system and music. Excellent ⭐️ excellent can’t say enough! I’ll be back for something else. Thank you
I really like this place. Their services are very professional, they are helpful, the owner is a very nice guy, gave me advice on my system before installation because i wanted to run half ohm and he advised against with the subs i had. Whether he was right or not, i appreciated the concern and not just try to make a quick sale. My only complaint is that they only sell high end subs. Not really a place to buy your first system unless youre willing to spend good money. The lady at the counter was also pretty rude when I asked if that was all the radios they sold. I got ‘Um you didnt see the giant wall of radios right there?’ There wasnt a single touch screen on that wall. Guess I wasnt specific enough. Other than that, great place.
It took them several months to get the speakers needed to complete my installation. A few months after that the cd player died,there were wires hanging down under the dash and the front speakers were loose and bouncing around. When I called them to fix it, they were too busy to get to it right away. Just say “No” to SNS, you can do much better. I had to take it to another installer to get it fixed(who did a great job-should have gone there to begin with).
I went to SNS recently and spent about 40 min going over a new stereo system for my car. Shaena went over everything I’d need for my car and also with the man that works there. I decided against a processor and an upgraded trim package because it was getting expensive my total without those items on paper they wrote down was $2,240. I agreed to that price and we set the appointment for Wednesday the 15th of Sept right there on the spot while I was in the shop. A few days later I received these messages from Shaena telling me they are changing the agreed price BY A LOT (see pics of texts below)! You just don’t do that to customers. She also mentions in her texts that it’s better she told me now instead of charging me more after the work is done! YOU ALSO DON’T DO THAT TO PEOPLE EITHER! Don’t go here they don’t do business ethically! All around not good people.
Went in to get pricing. The guy Merrill was rude, aggressive and very unprofessional. People come to a business to pay for professional services that they cannot do, most of the time customer’s do not know what the “professional term” is in your line of business. Instead of insulating them you should explain it so that they understand. I am hoping that he is not an owner there and if he is not I am surprised that he still has a job because it definitely didn’t seem like I caught him on a bad day, he was very comfortable being dismissive so I am sure this is his normal attitude.

Frank was a great communicator with returning our call promptly and rearranging our appointment during the holidays. He was in and out in under an hour and did a wonderful job on our old piano!
Friendly, courteous, professional, skilled in his craft – 10/10
Frank just tuned the piano at Bob Heilman’s Beachcomber Restaurant on Clearwater Beach. Myself and Lloyd are two of the piano players there and we felt that he did a fantastic job! The notes are all in very good tune and sound much more clear than before. He also came out quickly to do the job. Thanks again!
17. Walmart Supercenter
Address: 8001 US Hwy 19 N, Pinellas Park, FL 33781 , Pinellas Park , Florida , United States
Supply chain issues were showing on this visit. Lots of nearly empty shelves in various sections. but food section seemed fully stocked. Lots of boxes in aisles. Garden sectio. was full of dead plants.
Too many people
All your food and house hold needs at reasonable prices.
Literally ANY Walmart I order a pick up for, takes 30 minutes OR MORE to get my items. I understand that online pickups can get busy at certain times but I do this for my convenience and having to wait longer than I should for items is less than ideal. I prefer other stores more than Walmart not only because of this, but the stores are always messy and pallets are out and in peoples way. Pallet jacks aren’t being monitored correctly and pose a trip at least once a shopping trip I do take. 0 stars.
We went at 9 pm to get some ice cream. The lights were flickering in the entire store and it was very disorienting and quite frankly creepy. There were only a few cashiers but the lines weren’t too long – only 8 people in front of us. It took 47 minutes to get to the front of the line anyways. When we got there, the cashier was moving sooooo slow. I’m convinced that she was on something. Especially since while my husband was paying she lowered her voice, looked dead in my eyes, leaned forward, and whispered that there are three more viruses coming to the United States. It felt like I was in a B horror flick, just waiting for the zombie cashier to crawl over the counter and eat my face off. By the time we got to the car, the ice cream was melted. Weirdest experience I have ever had while shopping – and I’ve lived in Florida for a very long time. Gave me the heebie jeebies!
Waited an hour for them to find my online order and another hour in the checkout line

Very helpful and was able to to get what I needed very friendly and a lot of knowledge.
Brenda was such a big help! This place always has amazing friendly staff and always try to help you out. I will always be coming here and will refer anyone here. Thank you!
Awesome staff and great deals…highly recommend
Called, questioned a warranty, very respectful.
I usually try to drop in on this place a couple of times a month. I Have purchased several items from here and the staff is always been courteous and helpful. Today when I popped in to see if there was anything I could use, I was promptly helped by Mike who pointed out two items that I really needed in my wood shop after only having a brief conversation with me about my interests. If you get a chance, pop in. You might find that one item that you’ve been searching for.
I had a wonderful experience at this location! Such great customer service and great deals and communication if you are selling/pawning! I highly recommend if you need to sell/buy!
Very poor service the man was very rude I came In To purchase a weed eater and he was no help so I took my business down the road to cash America pawn
Drove an hour and a half from far because they accepted an offer for a set of microphones to show up and tell me that they aren’t honoring the offer. Very sad to see that they would make me go 1 and a half hours in driving to encounter the lie. If your planning to buy from this place save your money go somewhere else. They mislead me and didn’t even come close to the price promised. Very disappointed.
My brother purchased a laptop as a gift for me, it lasted a week. It kept updating and un-updating. I used the warranty but, they did not have any laptops so I purchased a cordless drill. I tried charging both batteries. I had to return the drill. I saw a Dewalt drill I wanted to purchase and I was told it was broke. I then went to the showcase as you walk into the store I looked at items I was told that everything in that case is broken. I then purchased a lawn mower I asked for them to start it they said they could not as they could not store it with gas. I paid $8.00 for a can of gas I went to put it in the tank and the tank was full of gas. It was hard to start rough idle. Hopefully when I use it the second time it will start. Then I bought another laptop it was doing the same thing as the first laptop. After the drill, laptop, Dewalt drill etc I asked them why are you selling all this stuff that does not work? Today I did get a refund but, out for both the warranties on the laptops. $50 for the first one and $8+ for the second one. By the way the first laptop they charged my brother almost $300 for a used laptop. Today I bought a new HP for under $200. I told them they have a good scam going. They are having people pay for warranties when they know the items have problems. My suggestions for electronics or power tools pass on it.. They charge almost what a new item would cost sometimes more.
