Everyone is professional and eager to help with questions. Great sipplies and instruments. Teachers there are just great and agevis not a problem. So if you are a late
bloomer or good player and need to take your chops to a higher level, THIS IS THE PLACE.
They recently setup a new classical guitar for me, and now it plays great. Really excellent work: low action and no buzz.
Very helpful and patient with all my questions!!
Get rid of website til there is info on stock
Local musician here, I bought a pair of sticks here in a pinch before a gig. They broke before my first set was over. 10/10 will not be back here for any gear. 2 stars because the guy behind the counter knew they were cheap sticks.
Keep up the good work!
Went to check it out – it appears to be out of business!
4. George’s Music
Address: 912 3rd St S, Jacksonville, FL 32250 , Saint George , Florida , United States
Great price and service on setups. My guitar sounds great after having it serviced here.
The absolute best group of guys! Always there to answer questions no matter your skill level. Also a great place to just talk music!!
GREAT customer care! Very personalized and extremely knowledgeable! We love George’s music!!!
They need a person for every type of instrument.
Love the customer service but look for more gospel or christian activities.
Great inventory. Prices are decent on most items. Friendly staff.
Nice guitar selection- too bad they won’t let you try them out. I guess Covid is spread rapidly via guitars. As of April 2021 masks are still required if you want to walk around the store.
Unhelpful staff. Poor selection. I went to Guitar Center and my money went twice as far. Sorry local music slop.
The manager’s was no help and rude , to me and my daughter . would not help find the gear that suites our price and would not lay away the item we wanted . because the manger, his name is (niko) and john is the other one. Niko would not have my item sent to the store. He said they was closed and we stop there to see. And so happens he lied . the other manger is the worst one. He would not show us where anything was in the store. He just pointed to the right side of the store. Instead of assisting us . his attitude was very poor. Made the store look very unprofessional and unwelcoming for the feamle gender. like we walked in the mens restroom or somthing lol. We didnt have been so disrespected & treated so poorly in our time of shopping for guitar gear. My daughter almost took her stuff back because of what they made her feel like. They acted like she wasnt allowed to be there or something. Funny thing is this didnt happen at the georges music, down at the southside . they are not helpful at all. Very rude and smart about the thing. Made us even question why someone would be that way just because a gender difference. Guitar center never did this. I hope in the future your store in Orange park picks better clientele. Mangers need to be helpful and polite . not sexiest and rude. Because someone ask a question. Made me wanna call corporate and tell them. I always shopped there . never had any problems untill i came a cross that store with those mangers. John and niko. None helpful young men. No need for my business anymore. Mu money is not gonna be good enough and my daughter isnt. Thats a shame. My day young men respected and was very polite to ladies. Not at that store. Dont go there if your a female. Those mangers wont help you. They will give you short send offs and lie to your . im surprised they even took your money . i was feeling like they wanted us to leave and not even buy anything. How rude. No more georges music. This fixed me. I refuse to be talked to like a less of a woman or human being for that matter.
5. Island Music
Address: 465 N Courtenay Pkwy, Merritt Island, FL 32953 , Saint George , Florida , United States
Great place yo fond anything to pursue my musical career. Love it
Kinda over priced if you ask me!
Great customer service
I like this place. Because no matter how busy they are. Always try to help any way they can. They go over and above.
No part that I needed said they could get it it’ll take about two weeks I order to myself up on Amazon and already got it sorry sorry customer service
Has quite a few instruments for the size. Has a recording studio for what that’s worth. I’ve heard some of the noise that come out of there??
Don’t expect any service though. I think the average age of the employees is about 17. And of course they are all Woke and don’t have a clue. Didn’t see any Quota Hires? So if your buying strings or picks you should be good. I really tried hard to buy a guitar there a couple years ago. Ended up ordering a Taylor from Taylor because they wouldn’t. To lazy I guess?
ENTER AT OWN RISK
Dropped off hubbys fender said would be done in few days…went back in one week nothing done didnt even order part…gave another week still nothing done no part even ordered. Just picked up guitar will go to sam ash. Lost a customer.
6. Music Go Round Bradenton
Address: 5108 15th St E Unit 204, Bradenton, FL 34203 , Saint George , Florida , United States
Awesome people to deal with and a great selection of instruments! Go there for all your musical needs
I’m going back to spend some money
Nice price’s
Cool place, wide variety of”stuff”. Decent prices, no haggeling. Staff wasn’t overly friendly and had to track down someone to test an amp.
I like the idea of new and used music gear chain store. They are able to access instruments and equipment from all over the country. The salesman could have been more knowledgeable but overall, it’s really good.
Weird music store with weird employees
I bought a second hand trumpet there but when it arrives at my place (Spain) the mechanic, the central core of the instrument witch is the pistons were faulty, the third pistons casing has very heavy mark of screwdriver inside, all he way from bottom to upper part. I really wonder what happened and why such a thing hasn’t been seen and clearly mentioned on the announcement. They assure me to have properly tested it and that it was working perfectly in their store. They also argue that travelling all the way to Spain may have damaged the instrument witch is a cheap excuse and impossible because it came personally with a friend of mine plus it was well stored in its case.
I REALLY DO NOT RECOMMEND ANYBODY TO BUY IN THEIR STORE, they are not competent at all at testing wind instrument. In my case i suppose they just move the pistons up and down, remove and reassemble all parts and assume it was fine, unfortunately this is not the way you try a pistons instrument.
They don’t wanna be responsable for that and told me they can’t do anything to resolve it.
Very unhappy with this franchise store. Very poor service
store is kind of preoccupied. i go there to get supplies for my parent. i mean its a music store. i listen to music my parent sends me to stores. i find its okay but who knows
7. CornerStone Music, LLC
Address: 798 W Montrose St, Clermont, FL 34711 , Saint George , Florida , United States
I’ve never come across a better music store. Period. From the moment you walk in you are treated like family. The selection is top of the line. Customer service is through the Stratocasterphere. They have some of the best collection of guitars in the entire world. Support your local music shop!!!!!! Recommended!!!
Great place!
Good place to take care of your musical needs
Really nice guys!
Got awesome tagima540,great action,very happy with ,smart staff, average prices
For the several thousands of dollars my family has spent at this business, I expect Pete to be friendly/pleasant towards us(at the very least), for life, but he clearly can’t maintain that. He started acting rude towards my mom some years back, and now me. For no apparent reason. I hope that keeping that sour attitude of yours is worth losing 20+ year customers who often went out of their way to spend money at your establishment and stay local. Weird way to treat people who earned you money. Avoid. He’s one of those guys who thinks everyone is a “democrat”. Super solid reason to push customers away.
8. Walmart Supercenter
Address: 23106 US Hwy 19 N, Clearwater, FL 33765 , Saint George , Florida , United States
I placed a phone order & I received 2 very nice items within a week. This is a delightful place to shop when on St George Island.
Beautiful!
Julie and Brian are very gracious and helpful owners. Love their store.
Neat little place. Good craft beer to go and a good gift shop as well. There is a little frozen treat place out back that has healthier options and fun games for kids.
Interesting little local gift shop and beach outfitter, not like the chain stores. Friendly dog on duty too.
Adorable shop, friendly people
Terrible experience
Typical beach tourist store. Nothing special.
I can’t believe anyone would treat a customer so horribly after being proved their accusations are incorrect. Anywhere with a sense of human decency would have offered some sort of gratis to make up for the poor treatment of that young lady. There may always be two sides to every story, but there is no side to this story in which the employees treated this situation in a proper manner.
I have visited this island every year with my family for a long while now and we always visit this shop. I can assure you i will no longer be shopping here and will advise my family to do the same. The fact that you all seem to have removed your reviews off your facebook page proves that you realize you’ve done something wrong.
10. Sam Ash Music Stores
Address: 912 Lee Rd, Orlando, FL 32810 , Saint George , Florida , United States
I have shopped at Sam Ash Music Store for many years and the experience has always been very good, I highly recommend visiting this store if you are looking for musical items of all sorts.
Javier was a great help! I’m a total noob. I did a lot of research on the type of guitar and gear I wanted, but there were still decisions to be made. He was patient with his guidance, offering advice on price and value, not just up selling. This store may be across town for me, but will definitely come back. Thanks!
Always extremely patient and super helpful with our changing needs!!
Leah in the band instrument department was friendly and helpful. The guys in the guitar department were far more interested in having a personal conversation than in helping customers .
Helpful but some of the STAFF are unfamiliar with Some OLD SCHOOL but STILL useful DIGITAL RECORDING MEDIUMS…I literally had to “train” one of the sales people. Good Stores and staff but sometimes you may have to educate them as well.
Samuel
Dropped off my ukulele there for a broken bridge that just needed to be glued back on, was told it would take 3-4 weeks, after 3 months with no update I called them to check on it and was told they had to order a special clamp and it would take another month to come in, after another 3 months with no contact from them I called back and was told they were still waiting on the clamp and couldn’t give me an estimate on how long it would take. At this point I decided to pick it up and try another music store, only to wait around for 30 minutes while they searched for my case because they had lost it, when finally found they told me it got mixed into their regular stock and was sitting on a rack to be sold. The wait time I can excuse, as how quickly a part comes in isn’t their fault, but the lack of any updates on their part and the fact they lost and almost sold my case is insane, wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone and definitely have no interest in ever doing business there again. Also took it to guitar center after and they told me they could do it in 2 days total, so yeah, forget this place.
The guy helping me didn’t seem to care if I bought A guitar or not. When I asked questions about the guitar he didnt seem to want to talk to me. When I told him I wanted to purchase it, he didnt wipe it off from the fingerprints and smudges on it from other people touching it. It didn’t come with a book so I have no clue how to use the electric part of it. Very disappointed because I thought your store would be a little better than that. No one offered to help me either. I had to get him and when he told me that my receipt would be at the counter by the door. I had to ask someone to get it for me. Wont come back.
I keep getting calls from this place. Please stop calling me.
11. Guitar Shop
Address: 2111 Garden St, Titusville, FL 32796 , Saint George , Florida , United States
Great staff! Never had a better guitar store experience.
I have both puchased there and had my guitar serviced there and they have been excellent to work with. Friendly, knowledgable staff. I highly reccomend them
Small but very nice
Very nice people very helpful had just what I wanted.
12. St George Inn
Address: 135 Franklin Blvd, St George Island, FL 32328 , Saint George , Florida , United States
Love this place for a bite to eat, a cold beer and live music. Meet people from all over U.S. We live here and love to socialize with islanders and vacationers.
Oysters
Veggie wrap
My favorite restaurant on the island!!! Atmosphere, views, and OMG THE TUNA DIP!!!
Good but a bit pricey.
Enjoyed Padddy’s today. Wait staff was actually pleasant and smiling! Lots of places have grumpy staff, not Paddy’s! And the food is two thumbs up good.
Nice place friendly people decent prices sometimes gets crowded
If you want anything here you better hollar for it depending on the waitress you get. Got about as much pineapple as I did fish in the tacos. The fish was good but boy do they put a ton of seasoning on it. Oysters are just like about any you’d get on the island minus all the different flavor combos they have. Maybe if I came back drunk I’d have a better time.
Just had blackened fish tacos. Worst I ever had they said it was Mahi Mahi but they served me mullet. Two tacos for twenty bucks. Will never go back and also charged my wife 6 bucks for a thimble seaweed for poke tuna witch was supposed to be included. So
Just ok. Staff was nice and friendly and strangely apologized right away, before even giving us a menu, for no spirits/Margaritas, and only grilled or maybe steamed food, no fried fish/shrimp or french fries. Menu is pretty limited if you don’t want oysters or peel & eat shrimp. We had pretty blase, unseasoned shrimp tacos and a piece of grilled chicken on a bun, a Budwiser and a plastic cup of un-named pinot grigio. $43. Nothing interesting about it, except they are dog-friendly. Probably won’t go back.

14. Walmart Supercenter
Address: 201 34th St N, St. Petersburg, FL 33713 , Saint George , Florida , United States
El lugar donde termina todo mi cheque amo a walmart….todo lo consigo allí y desde las maneger , cajeras, backery , pick up y deli me conocen a mí y a mi familia…..
Smaller store but easy to find items
I like it
Nice store always packed police always out front
Great but not enough register open. Nor any self check out
Doesn’t always have the products I am looking for, also they carry very limited supplies of some items. I normally just visit the super Walmart on the south side (15 minutes out of the way) because it is always guaranteed to have what I need.
It makes no sense that there’s two super Walmarts on 34th Street and both of them are horrible
I Won’t Ever Visit Another Wal-Mart, Never, Ever Again! I Threw up coming out of the store and Continued to do so again on the way home!!! There was DOG Sh*%T, on the floor and the Attitude of the Workers were So desensitized as the Store was Visibly Unsanitized! DISGUSTING and Definitely UnAcceptable!
Zero stars. Twice I have come to this store looking for Fruit of the Loom underwear. Both times I have arrived to find shelves empty of Fruit of the Loom underwear. Just shelves loaded with empty boxes. Terribly run Walmart.
15. Walmart Supercenter
Address: 990 Missouri Ave N, Largo, FL 33770 , Saint George , Florida , United States
The cashier, Barbara has excellent customer service skills. She’s the G.O.A.T of Walmart employees and I’ve never met one as caring to customers as she is. She’s great.
It’s a big store
It had plenty of electric mobility scooters
Service is good. Produce is often low or out of stock. Hard to social distance, also, and people dont adhere very well. Except, most everyone I see has a mask on.
Also not sure why Walmart is messing up Medicare/Medicaid beneficiaries’ Humana Food Card benefit purchases. Thats probably a corporate IT issue, but they often will not let qualified food go on the card. Otherwise its a pretty clean store and people seem friendly. Oh and they dont have Google/Apple Pay yet apparently. Just a little frustrating. Otherwise its good.
The parking lot is disgusting!! Trash everywhere. It looks like it hasn’t been cleaned in weeks.. The inside was better, thank goodness, but 1st impression not good at all…
Most of the stuff is shipped from China and it’s all garbage
crowded, rude employees, smells bad all aisles blocked with merchandise. Not going back I’ll drive a little further to another walmart
Employees were just rude
16. Target
Address: 2747 Gulf to Bay Blvd, Clearwater, FL 33759 , Saint George , Florida , United States
Fast and easy service! I Will definitely do it again.
Service & Selection
6/19/20 Mark on lane 12 was very helpful and kind. Brightened my day.
Clean
Clean
Great service and staff variety.
Please remove the ROCKY MOUNTAIN Pumpkin Pies out of your store, they taste terrible. Lets enjoy our Holidays !
Rude and very unprofessional male pharmacist.While I was standing and waiting at consultation counter the pharmacist shouted at me from the back asking if I had a question l replied yes than he shouted again “what’s up” while still standing in the back. I was not comfortable shouting back what my issue was because there ware people around me. I’m 50years old and l was never what’s upd like that.
Pros: Convenient Target. Cute and Clean.
Cons: Horrible service with self check out. African lady needs major customer service training. Very rude. I wished I got her name but we visited on 4/28/2023. First time here and we got on to because we didn’t throw our gift card trash in the right bin. She treated me as though I’ve been here before and know where everything is at. As a manager I would train my employees to be polite and she could of taken my trash from me. FE: “Hi mam, is that gift card no longer needed? I can take it from you” Ofc, she said this instead “Hi, is that all used up? The trash bin is over there” Too much attitude from someone who is working in that area.
Please train your employees to give some respect and dignity.
17. St. George Island Lighthouse, Museum & Gift Shop
Address: 2B E Gulf Beach Dr, Eastpoint, FL 32328 , Saint George , Florida , United States
I got the after hours, so I couldn’t go inside. Beautiful lighthouse! Grounds were well manicured. Very photogenic. Adjacent restrooms were tidy. Wonderful boardwalk to the beach.
Reconstructed from the debris of the original which succumbed to a tropical storm. The small museum is well done.
Short hours in winter. Check before you go. View is worth the climb.
Nice little place. Good for a lil educational stop for kids.
Did not actually go in it but museum was nice.
Wanted paid entry, and required a mask! Walk that many steps with a mask after the governor removed mandate? Nuts, we passed.
No shade or parking
18. R & R Guitars
Address: 1881 W State Rd 434, Longwood, FL 32750 , Saint George , Florida , United States
Rob and his staff are amazing! They are knowledgeable, kind and always helpful. I would definitely recommend R&R guitars.
A music store with a fantastic selection of quality instruments for both professionals and students alike. Instructors have real musical experience and the patience of saints as you learn. And ownership goes above and beyond to find your musical cup of tea. Drink heartily at R and R guitars.
Replaced strings of my daughter’s guitar. Did not tune at all. Poor communication. Was on the phone while checking me out and had difficulty asking / answering questions. Stated would clean up guitar that had been in storage but wasn’t touched. Took several days to replace strings. Would not go here again. Poor service
19. Walmart Supercenter
Address: 3801 Tampa Rd, Oldsmar, FL 34677 , Saint George , Florida , United States
You can find almost all you need here and at a very good price. Thanks
Superrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
One of the better ones.
Facility is always neat, stocked, barely any lines & always good finds with good prices.
They have EVERYTHING
I asked 2 employees about product location and 1 was new and no clue & the other one didn’t know.
Oil change it’s always busy with 3 or more hs to wait
Horrible Customer service…STAY AWAY!!!
Typical service not for car oil terrible beware
20. Walmart Supercenter
Address: 3501 34th St S, St. Petersburg, FL 33711 , Saint George , Florida , United States
I shop at Walmart because I enjoy getting the bargains I find there
In and out so I could get dinner started.
Good variety
Clean and organized
Great experience. No hassle with return without receipt. Store personnel was very courteous. Made my day.
Regular Walmart in the hood. Always a little dirty but cheap prices.
No hand baskets.
Ended up buying a substitute for the lighter fuel I needed and I don’t smoke.
They certainly set the world straight.
Can’t wait until another corporation
Owns this here.
Of all the Walmart Supercenters in Pinellas county, this has to be the most poorly managed store. From the employees just standing around, chatting or even having fist fights in the parking lot (yes, I have witnessed that myself) to the inevitable stocking mess on almost every aisle… This place is a pig sty…. I have had a few interactions with nice employees but in the majority of cases they seem like they are just standing around milking the clock or even in some cases, they can seem to be stalking or casing the customers … I never feel at ease or comfortable in this store and I am not exactly a frail flower….
I probably will never return to this store, even though it is the closest supercenter Walmart to my home.
Rude employees dirty store. The deli was disgusting. What do expect from a Wal-Mart low prices & low quality every.thing
