Great ukes. Very personal attention to his customers.
일반 샵 생각하고 갔다가 커스텀 장인급이신곳이라 깜놀! 입문자가 구매하기엔 부담이있는 곳이지만 즐겁게 여러 얘기들려주고, 제작환경 구경도 해보고 좋은경험하고 와서 헛되지 않았던 방문이었음
Love going there I learn a lot about ukuleles from him. His instruments are beautiful as we as beautiful sounding.
, I’m not sure why but the quality isn’t as good as it used to be I have several Sonny D ukulele I want to go buy a new one but I couldn’t find one that was a very good quality the price was more expensive then the ones I bought before but the quality was definitely lacking . Ended up with a kamaka…
3. Malakpet Tirumala Music Center
Address: Malakeke Pl, Waipahu, HI 96797 , Royal Kunia , Hawaii , United States
So far the customer service is great. I didn’t get to buy anything yet as I just browsed. Definitely a place for any musician or aspiring musician to come and sample out the new and even used equipment. I’d say for once, I got to play on the drums and not have to worry about some salesperson telling me to be quite unlike the other local music stores on Oahu (ahem).
I’ll be returning to buy some sticks and a new practice pad soon and eventually, my favorite electronic drum kit and hardware.
Great customer service. Has everything a guy can dream of. I was literally only looking for the small nut that holds my input jack in place and they had it. I went to easy music and they never had it in stock. So of course I was skeptical about even finding the part here but to my surprise they had it. Mahalo plenty Center.
Great sales man and its a heaven for musicians. You can order online and have it delivered there and pay no shipping!
Very impressed with the selection that they had. Big selection of guitars at very good prices.
Really nice store. supah Organized with a ton of products to choose from I went looking for a bass guitar. Boy I didnt realize how many different ones they’d carry and the wide price range. The crew of professionals was great.. totally % Recommend this store for all your music needs
Bought books as a gift, but they ended up being duplicates so I needed to return them. They are brand new with no creases, and even with the receipt they wouldn’t take the return. Not even for a store credit. I’ve never had an issue with guitar center until today. Better off just buying stuff from Amazon if you think you may have to return it.
Just don’t feel welcome. They rush you out. This covid thing screwing up otherwise great places. Guitar Center has ridiculous rules and Easy music is a lot more relaxed, I’d rather spend more and drive to town that feel rushed
WELL? ARE YA’LL REALLY READY FO DIS? THE PLACE GUITAR CENTER SHOPPED THERE ALL MY NATURAL LIFE, AND EVEN HAD AN UNCLE DIE SHOPPING THERE AT VARIOUS LOCATIONS THOUGH THE U.S.A..
FOLKS DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME UNLESS YOU GOT LOADS OF MONEY TO SHELL OUT FO MIS-ADVICE.
DO YOU WALLET A FAVOR AND GO SEE DAN’S GUITARS OR THE GOOD GUYS YOUR ACCOUNT WILL THANK YOU LATER.
SO WHATS WRONG. AT THIS PARTICULAR LOCATION THEY’RD RATHER LEARN FROM THE CUSTOMER THAN BE INFORMATIVE. THE STAFF THERE CAN READILY TELL YOU ABOUT WHAT THEY DON’T GOT, RATHER THAN BE ASSERTIVE IN HELPING THE CUSTOMER BE SELECTIVE.
BY THE WAY, FOR ALL OF YOU HEAVIER HANDED STRING GODS AT THIS LOCATION THEY’D RATHER HAVE CUSTOMER PAYING THEM FOR UNREASONABLE REPAIRS THAN PROVIDE THE CUSTOMER WITH THE EASE OF KNOWLEDGE.
SO GET READY BASS PLAYA’S GET READY TO OFFER UP AN ADDITIONAL AMOUNT FOR SHIPPING SOMETHING SO MINUTE TO YOUR ISLAND IT’S ALMOST COST EFFICIENT TO QUIT PLAYING IN A BAND AND JUST WORK AT GUITAR CENTER.
YOU CAN TRUST THIS INEPT REVIEW AS THIS BASS PLAYA IS KNOWN THROUGHOUT THESE ISLANDS

Malama, you are truly a blessing! Your teaching and encouragement provide a positive environment for all. We recently moved to the mainland and decided to continue our lessons with Inspiration Studios. It was easy transitioning to online lessons. It has been a blessing for me and my child. We look forward to seeing you each week. Sincere gratitude to Inspiration Studios.
Inspiration Studious has been a huge blessing in our lives! My 4 children ages 7-14 have been taking lessons for a few years in voice, ukulele, and piano. This is something we could never teach them as we are not musically inclined. Malama does a wonderful job in raising up musical warriors for the Lord! If you are looking for someone to teach music to your children in a God centered, loving, and grace filled environment, look no further!
We absolutely love Inspiration Studios. My kids have been taking piano, ukulele and voice for a few years now and have loved every minute. Auntie Malama is the best. She is so loving, thoughtful and dedicated to Christ and her students. So blessed to have found this place.
7. Starbucks
Address: 94-673 Kupuohi St, Waipahu, HI 96797 , Royal Kunia , Hawaii , United States
Typical Starbucks, expect more of a home office/home business type crowd here, vice students or leisure crowd.
Always a good place to get coffee and a good cookie
Very helpful baristas. Nice place. Parking may be tight.
Vegetarian options: There are some available.
Parking: The location is a smaller area of the strip mall with a smaller parking lot connected to a larger parking lot.
Shout out to that newbie with a green hair who told me “have a nice/great day.” I think that’s what I heard when I walked out. I apologize for not acknowledging your greeting then…I was too angry about my order and the service that I received from this starbucks’ location.
First of all, all those who were working behind the espresso machine—admit it—you guys forgot my drink. Probably wouldn’t have done it if I had not asked for it. The place wasn’t even busy. There was another person that ordered after me, and she had her one-drink order done before mine. There was another order (2 drinks), maybe a phone order since this customer was not present while I was waiting. In my head, I was looking at those two drinks thinking maybe the baristas made a mistake on my order (which was a grande white mocha).
I waited…no ones eyes turned to me or look concern to why I’m still waiting on the side. Standing there just waiting as other baristas—one by one—leave the front to go to the back, leaving one barista behind the espresso machine and the newbie (I’m assuming she’s a newbie since I observed another employee talking to her about how/where things go). So, after contemplating, I decided to ask if one of those two drinks was mine, and the barista asked me what was my order. I calmly responded, and she immediately said no. She then told me that she would make my drink now. I was irritated by her lack of empathy for customer service. I would’ve understand if the store was busy but it wasn’t or if they’ve shown concern about me waiting for a while—but no.
The barista finally gave me my order, and I noticed that it was an iced coffee version of white mocha and not the blended one. This part was probably my fault since I didn’t mention it to the person who took my order. I just assumed it would be blended, or maybe that register person could’ve specifically given me the option if I wanted a blended or hot or iced. Anyways, I didn’t want to wait there any longer so I just left with frustration and anger. This is why I rate Kunia Starbucks one star.
Moving at a glacial pace…
I used to frequent this location a lot when I worked on Schofield and would travel home to Ewa. I would mobile order when I left work so that it would be ready once I got there.
I think 4 out of 5 times they got my order wrong. It would be ready, but wrong. Sometimes it wouldn’t be soy, or it would be mocha instead of white mocha, or hot instead of iced. The crazy part about it is that it says exactly what it should be on the label… it just wasn’t right. And this place isn’t crazy busy compared to places like Waikele, Waikiki, or Pearlridge. To me, its just carelessness. They don’t take the time to fully read and verify.
A couple times I went home and my husbands drink was wrong but by then it was too late. So I started checking while I was there and had them correct it on the spot. Most of the time, they would correct it on the spot. Sometimes they would put my cup at the end and make me wait (might as well, right, they already got my money).
I don’t know man. I worked at Starbucks before so I get it. But still…
8. Ian’s Music Studio
Address: 94-1082 Pulelo St, Waipahu, HI 96797 , Royal Kunia , Hawaii , United States
My son has been taking lessons here and enjoys it. The teacher is very patient and knowledgeable.
My daughter has been taking lessons from Ian for a couple of years now. Before and during Covid and Ian has been Awesome! He has made every effort to support our Ohana even offering virtual lessons via Skype which has been great because we were not comfortable meeting face to face due to Covid. Through it all our daughter has shown tremendous growth and I’m extremely grateful. I don’t know if other instructors could have been as flexible and effective in his course offering. Mahalo!
Ian is an excellent piano instructor. He’s worked with my grandson for several years. My grandson is always happy to have his lesson time. Ian is kind, patient and very comfortable with young people. He’s been punctual and his rates are more then fair.

The Walmarts in Hawaii is a little different than we’re I’m from but the very nice as well! Just make sure you take reusable bags because Hawaii doesn’t have plastic bags like the mainland does.
Thank you for self Check out
Very clean much variety of clothes great sales
This place is an awesome one stop shop…. I love that can get pretty much everything I need here. I just wish they had a bigger selection for scrubs and supplies for the office and school. other than that you can get pretty much everything you need here at a very competitive price.
Dad, it’s walmart
With the addition of more self checkout stations, it’s real easy to get in and out of the store in a timely manner.
Kunia walmart employee’s need training all of them. Everyone doesn’t know where anything is. Poor costumer service, one time I left my basket full of things out of everyones way and when I came out it was gone so I ask the workers at layaway because that’s the restroom I used if anyone seen my basket they told me someone put all my things back so I left next time I’ll go to the on in mililani
Not open 24hrs
This location I actually like but the amount of loitering in the parking lot is awkward. And this location seems like it has no registers ever.
This place is our new go to kareoke spot! The owners are so nice, the area is spotless, and their response and efforts to accommodate to our party was incredible!! Please go here for your next party and support this awesome buisness!! Love love love!
The owner is really nice and it’s a great place to throw a party 🙂 10/10 recommend
Celebrated a birthday here and the staff were the best. By far one of the best service at any Karaoke I’ve ever been to. Great atmosphere and lots of song selections. Would definitely recommend to a friend and will be coming back in the future!
