FAMILY OWNED VERY FRIENDLY STAFF GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE HAVE BEEN GOING THERE FOR OVER 10 YEARS NOW ASK FOR SHAWN!!!
I recently made a purchase of a keyboard her and ended up having to return it to the store, no fault of the company. Vickie (the owner) was very kind and helpful when I asked her for assistance with the stores return policy. She was honest and kind and tried to make it as easy as possible for me to care for the return. I would come here again in the future if I ever needed anything again.
Any time I have stopped by they have always been very helpful.
Small inventory of low to mid range instruments. I needed a set of Elixir phosphor bronze custom light polyweb and had to settle for 80/20 custom light nanoweb. Nice family run business. Trying to buy local whenever possible.
Just a personal experience
Knowledgeable staff. Small selection in digital pianos and recording studio equipment but will order, if you can wait.
Not sure on the name but the gentleman helping me out was very rude. At first the store seemed like a nice spot with a good variety of products, a little lacking in basses but otherwise good stock. But when I was asked what I was looking for in a bass and I mentioned I was just casually looking the whole tone of the man helping me changed. He was constantly pressing me about buying the bass I was playing that day and when I said I really wasn’t 100% sure about even buying a bass he unplugged the instrument cable from the amp as a subtle way of saying my presence wasn’t welcome if I wasn’t gonna spend money. Then when I politely asked if I could play a different bass he said he was too busy to reach right above him and grab it for me even though there was only one other person in the store who was already being helped. Overall the store seems nice but youre better off going to the guitar center down the street where you’re at least aloud to play the instruments.
Been a customer for 17 years until today;e negative coment by employees and I have one of my client on the fhone they hear that and I lost my sale,and also the store. Very disappointed
Very Unwelcoming. This is not the place if you’re a musician and you want to touch and feel an instrument . Some employee, Mnr I think,, ran up on me and my son acting as though we were going to steal or break everything. In the end he didn’t even know is own inventory or didn’t care to help me find the equipment I was shopping for. Referred me to a online app. Very unwelcoming atmosphere. I won’t go back to this place again
5. Chafin Music Center – Now Music & Arts
Address: 608 N Dixie Hwy, Lake Worth Beach, FL 33460 , South Palm Beach , Florida , United States
I love Chafin Music. Jeff and Sue are wonderful people, and Danny and the rest of the staff have always bent over backwards to help get me exactly what I need. I’ve been doing business with them since my family moved here in the 80’s… I’ve bought guitars, amps, band instruments, sheet music, a grand piano, and many other things from them over the years. We just rented a saxophone for our son who is starting elementary school band, and once again, they took great care of us. Fill your music needs here and feel great about supporting an incredible family-owned local music store!
Although I have been out of state for 12 years, and the Chafins have taken a long overdue retirement. I was treated with
respect and an efficient manor. I am pleased, by the new owners.
Friendly and knowledgeable! Great selection.
good to have a place to go that really knows how to work on instruments. I brought my old clarinet for restoration and they did good job.
They have great prices, but they are awful at repair. I went there 4 times for the same exact problem that was never fixed
I wish they had someone with luthier experience. I wanted to learn the viola and I may be a beginner but I took the time watch YouTube videos on how to handle the instrument. The employee’s there touched the bow and now it doesn’t make a sound! I’m stuck with a non working Viola until my rental period is up! The employees and owner need to make an effort to understand each instrument.
6. AMP Shop & Music Parlor
Address: 776 S Congress Ave, West Palm Beach, FL 33406 , South Palm Beach , Florida , United States
Very trusted and dependable. Great folks and they know their stuff. Recommend!
These guys are Simply the Best no way around it not only are they professional and accurate they somehow make you feel like family. Thank you so much for all you do.
Really nice folks but they weren’t able to fix an amp that another place fixed easily
Good
This has been a reliable location for many years
Sold me an amp for $130 that they didn’t even check at half volume (cuts out) and called that “fully serviced” and couldn’t do anything for me when I complained bc I live out of state.
Closing early on a Friday during season? Bad business practice. Sitting outside your shop at 4:45pm. Call ahead or schedule an appointment with these guys

My experience was incredible. I had to move my piano and then have it tuned. Cheryl was easy and pleasant to talk to, gave me exact times and information and followed up with me. The movers were exactly on time and handled my piano professionally and gave me great comfort. Tobias tuned my piano and did an excellent job. Everyone exceeded my expectations and I would recommend them a thousand times! They are a model of professionalism and how every business should be run.
Piano is tune and works great. Great communication, and on time.
I am so thrilled with the work that Hamilton Piano Company does. Two years ago they did a repair on my baby grand that had resulted from a moving company from Panama City Beach and it was done immaculately. Today Tobias tuned the piano and it sounds fantastic. Hamilton is very accommodating, and expert in the services they perform. I’m a very pleased customer who will definitely contact Hamilton for the next piano need I have.
free tuning with purchase, but not if you’re from out of town. Edit* My apologies as it was best offer on Ebay in which you saved money by avoiding Ebay fees by selling outside of Ebay and jeopardizing whoever’s account that was. I didn’t know best offer means “discount”. if that’s the case I’m listing it for 500,000 with a 95% discount!!!! Amazing!!!! and since you took this as a “bad” review, and decided to make this public, I’ll add my side of the story as well thanks for the hospitality and “free” help loading after I had asked your employee (the one communicating back and forth) if there was going to be help after we drove across the state to load it and he said yes or we would have brought all the right equipment plus extra men to move it. You were sure happy that “someone” made an offer and were finally getting it out of there…. so ya…. thx soooooo much for the customer service
all went well. on time, at bid, works great!
Hamilton Piano is who I always have tune my Baby Grand Piano. Chris is a very good tuner, very polite and takes great pride in his work. He also asks you if you have any concerns before he starts which is very nice. The only thing I have to say is that my appointment was at 9:30 AM and he didn’t arrive until 10:00 AM. Thank you Chris and Hamilton Piano.
My 7 year old has been taking lessons for the past few months and absolutely loves it! He has been working on his ear, coordination, and starting to read notes. Mr. Kevin also has a lot of patience and has a true gift when it comes to working with kids and music. My son has developed a passion for music and it is beautiful to see. Thanks so much for working with our family
We are so blessed to have Mr Kevin as our piano teacher! We can’t recommend him enough!
They have a fantastic selection of guitars and even bass guitars. I found the staff really helpful and eager to help you find the right guitar. This shop is also fantastic for beginners and has a wide selection of beginner packs and they even do guitar lessons. Most importantly they are cheap. Thank you
David is an incredibly talented musician and a wonderful teacher for any skill level. He taught me the basics and introduced me to valuable lessons to steadily increase my skills. He also has a great taste in music and in addition learning from him each week, I loved picking up recommendations for new artists and bands to listen to.
Victor has also helped sub for Paul’s class and he’s also been a delight. He also has a lot of working experience and has helped answer a lot of my questions for me. Paul is very patient with his students and offers a lot of insight because he is also a working actor. The front desk staff are also incredibly awesome! They’re very polite and without fail always say hi to me as I walk through the door.
Great place to get your instrument and all your music supplies.
I loved my experience with Music man, Michelle is awesome, so is Gina and the gentlemen at the front. I will be going there often for all our musical instrument needs.
Great customer service and a solid selection of student instruments. The staff was knowledgeable and friendly, and they’re taking care of a repair on a student rented instrument in less than a week.
Overall, quite impressed!
It is good place to buy musical instrument especially related to wind instrument such as saxophones, trumpets, flute, clarinets, and etc. I bought mouth piece for soprano saxophone for my dad, and he really loved it. You may feel it is really small in size, but there is no place like this in WPB. Additionally, you may spend time to find out where the Entry is if you are the first time visit.
Went in to resolve an issue. It didn’t get resolved. I will look elsewhere to found what I am looking for.
Nice
Ok
I have purchased three clarinets for my daughter from Music Man, with the last one being over $3600 (Buffet R-13). The “brand-new” clarinet was damaged. We had it repaired from an outside person since my daughter needed it immediately for college auditions and we had been told by Music Man that the repairs would take three weeks. I received a phone call from the manager, Chris, asking for copies of my receipts. He then told me that he would submit the receipts to Buffet for reimbursement. After I submitted the receipts, Chris told me (A MONTH LATER) that he didn’t know why I had dropped off receipts for reimbursement and there would not be any reimbursement since I had taken it to elsewhere for repair. He even went as far as to say that he had never called me and had no idea what I was talking about, even though he had asked to speak to my daughter about what exactly needed to be repaired, as there had been other Buffet clarinets that needed to be repaired. After spending over $7000 at this store, I feel their customer service is horrible. Will never recommended it to anybody.
They lied to me

Address: 2875 S Ocean Blvd #210, Palm Beach, FL 33480 , South Palm Beach , Florida , United States
Patrick Lamb delivers excellent live performances from from live dance partys, corporate events, featured smooth jazz artist, his positive energy is always able to connect with the audience leaving them one anymore, his diverse portfolio of music is outstanding. If you’re able to get a booking with him I would greatly recommend it. J Davis
Patrick Lamb is definitely a MUST to go concert!!
Great Sax…Great voice….Fun times…So much fun to dance too….plus he is an upbeat and charismatic guy…
You will have a great time and you will be inspired to dance… Make sure you pick up one (or more) of his fabulous cd’s….
I’ve been listening to Patrick for years…
As a professional Ice Skater always loved to skate to his music …
Patrick is more than you could ever dream of for a writer, songwriter, singer, producer, and saxophonist. He meticulously plans every detail and executes flawlessly. Some performers just perform, but Patrick engages with the audience members. From the second he hits the stage, each person feels special and appreciated. This comes naturally for Patrick because he loves what he does. Crowds love his upbeat music as well as the energetic way he plays the saxophone.
Patrick takes nothing for granted. When work is truly from the heart, it shows. That is Patrick Lamb Productions, fully engaged and always from the heart.
The worst sound management ever! For someone who has been involved in music most of his life, he cannot and does not how to manage sound for any venue! Very poor to say the least!

Had good experiences at this GC every time I went. Feel bad for the associates because they’re usually understaffed, but you’d hardly know it in my opinion. They make it flow and make sure every customer is acknowledged and helped. Want to give a shoutout to Mike, who’s helped me a couple of times buying some of my old gear. Always strikes up a great conversation and makes the process smooth! Looking forward to doing business here in the future!
Shopping at Guitar Center is always an awkward experience due to the commission based salesman always trying to push something on you. I generally try to avoid it unless I need something within that day.
Steve was Fantastic in helping me select my 1st Guitar!
Found the amp I was looking for, however, this store is extremely understaffed. A little on the unprofessional side too, especially with the way I was greeted (knowing I was gonna be spending 500+ dollars). Steve, the salesmen, was kind over the phone, but a little rude in person. Working in retail, I understand it can be stressful, but there is NEVER a reason to disrespect or make a customer feel uncomfortable.
Friendly but disorganized
Took over 30 minutes to find someone to tell me a price of a Yamaha Keyboard.
They don’t put a price tag and there is no one around.
Asked staff and they said will find someone for me but no one showed up until half an hour later
After hanging out for 15 minutes in the percussion section without anyone being there to help me, I walked out to the front and asked the three people sitting down if anyone could help me in percussion. They all looked confused and there was an awkward silence. Then, one of them said to the other two, do you think Jeff could help him? Again, another awkward silence. Then one of them muttered, “where is Jeff? We can never find him.” They then said “we will find someone to help you.” I walked back into the percussion section for another five minutes and still no one to assist. I finally had enough waiting around and walked out. On my way out, the three people I had asked to help me where yet again sitting at the front door. Is this what business has become? No attempt to assist me or ask me if there was something they could do. I had a very simple question. Will definitely be taking my business elsewhere!
