I cannot say enough good things about Musical Treasures of Miami. I’ve bought many items from them over the years, and they’ve all met or exceeded my expectations. From MTM, I get prompt, candid responses to inquiries, professional packing, and after-the-sale follow-up to make sure that I’m happy, which I always am.
I have been in the phonograph and music box bussiness for over 40 years buying and selling all over the world. Some 20 years ago I met Raphael Cole of Musical Treasures of Miami and I still see him and his company as one of the best in the USA. I only have positive experience with him. He offers great items and reliable shipping.There is always a good communication. What else do we want in these days ?
I have made many purchases from this business and have been 100% satisfied. I plan to do more!
This business conspired with a very Bad eBay seller to harass my friend, he went to my friend house to pick up a damaged item for Guido phonograph and harassed My freind about masks and vaccination and how smart Guido is , knowing 5 languages, but never mentioned what a crook he is. They cheated me out of my return shipping on a damaged item. They refused to send shipping label.
BEWARE VERY BAD PEOPLE TO DEAL WITH. VERY DISRESPECTFUL
Leaves negative feedback for no reason, very difficult and rude person to deal with overpriced not recommended
I called this businesses number, and could hear them pick up, and then hang up. I called back 3 successive times, and each time was hung up on. I then called from another phone, and got voicemail. I left a message, and the owner called me back.
I mentioned that I had been hung up on 3 times(assuming it was a lazy employee), and he said it was because he was in the middle of something, and too busy to answer the phone. This from the owner of the business.
He also said I was not on his known numbers.
Of course I wasn’t, as I was a potential customer, never having done business with this place before.
I explained what I needed, and he asked me to send him pictures. When I explained I was not adept at doing it the way he wanted me to, he abruptly said, “it doesn’t sound like something I am interested in anyway” and then hung up on me. I have an antique music box which I have been told is valuable, and would have been willing to drive it over to him to see if he wanted to buy it. Heck he advertises he buys/sells items, and he is open 24 hours. Needless to say I will not be doing business with him, and considering his rudeness and attitude, I wouldn’t recommend anyone else bother with him either.
EDIT – This guy lied when he responded to me bad review, which he justly deserved. He offers to buy music boxes and I was trying to figure out whether to potentially sell it, and see if he was interested in buying it. Naturally I’d need him to give me an offer, so that is not trying to get a valuation, it is just how business is conducted. He might be good at what he does, but his lack of business acumen and common courtesy toward customers is about as bad as it gets.

Very easy transaction. Seller stayed in touch throughout process. Guitar was shipped out quickly and was better than descibed. Very happy with purchase & highly recommend doing business with this seller.
I took my son here because he’s Interested in learning to play drums but had no experience or previous lessons. We went to take a tour and the owner was present, he took the time to talk to my son , made him feel very comfortable and we signed him up for lessons immediately. He is taking drum lessons with Jose which has been amazing with him, taking the time to really teach him and keep his interest growing. The place is also great and they have an awesome selection of Vinyls! Great place to come and tour and grow your music experience ! Will highly recommend to everyone. Also love supporting small businesses where you are able to meet and talk to the owners ! Thank you ! You guys are great and Sebastian is really enjoying the lessons.
Was a pleasant experience. Quality merchandise
Terrible place if you are looking for a place to record/produce music. Prior to arriving owner – Drew agreed to let us record/produce music none of that was accomplished because he did not know how to set up/use his own equipment, mind you we also had to provide equipment such as a interface because he failed to have a prepared organized establishment. This was the 2nd time he did not know how to set anything up (First time we gave him the benefit of the doubt) This resulted in wasted studio time and he still demanded payment after wasting our studio time trying to figure out how his equipment works. Failed as a business owner definitely do not recommend.

Great classes. My son enjoys each one of them and is learning a lot. His teacher Mitch is easy to communicate with. He is on time and professional.
First time work with Elite music. The owner Jeff himself is a drum teach and have many years teaching experience. He also know this field very well and always recommend good teach. He also recommend a great drum teach Randy. Randy has over 15 years teaching experience and is still an professional performer. We love him, he open a new world to us. We ordered 10 lessons from them right away. Highly recommended.
Results results results!!! Elite Music Instruction is the best Music School in Fort Lauderdale!!!

Address: 447 NW 156th Ln, Pembroke Pines, FL 33028 , Sunshine Ranches , Florida , United States
Absolutely love this school.. great one on one classes very professional and Terrance was patient with my little son.
I adore this place. I’ve been here over a year and my learning experience has been absolutely phenomenal. The owner is fantastic and amiable; the teachers are kind and very talented; and the environment is great for learning your instrument. Pro music plus truly is the best place to get lessons in Weston and possibly in Florida all together.
Instructors and staff are amazing! Cost-effective lessons with local instructors that are passionate and patient with students. My children have been attending for over 2 years and have blossomed with self-confidence. Angela and Scott are incredible instructors and human beings. Nick has been terrific in his flexibility of customer service. Really appreciate all you do!
A quality experience with violin lessons.
Absolutely horrible, I’m disgusted by the way both my mother, and I were treated. The owner (or so she claimed to be) is such a hateful, impatient, and unpleasant lady. If I could give 0 stars I would. I’m glad I discovered this before I gave her my money, and wasted my time.
I decided to learn to play the piano again, and felt this would be a great place to do so considering that I live 5 minutes away from this store. I made an appointment, that I was unable keep due to the fact that my mother’s dentist appointment kept her later than expected. My car is in the shop, so I had to rely on my mother for the ride. Things happen, it’s life, I missed my appointment. I call the store at the time of my appointment to apologize and reschedule.
WELL, that did not go as planned. I call two times, a mean lady answers by screaming “HELLO” and then suddenly hangs up. She did this two times before I got upset. The third time I called, she answers “HELLO” so I tell her “Please tell me that we have bad reception and that you did not hang up on me.” She responds “EXCUSE ME?” She was trying to intimidate me, which did not work at all. I repeat what I said and she goes on to tell me MY connection was bad and that nothing is her fault. At this point, I realized, she knew I was the one who missed my appointment and this is why she was treating me bad. So I explain to her my situation, I even apologized and told her how my mother didn’t make it back in time to take me.
She assumed I was a child because I said “My mother didn’t take me”. I’m 21 years old, yes young, but old enough to understand mistreatment and stick up for myself.
Whether I was 14 or 42 you do not treat people like this.
My mother went in there after her dentist appt which is right next door to explain to the lady what happened and to reschedule, and my mother said she was rude and short tempered with her as well.
My mother is a very soft spoken, sensitive, christian woman, so I get very upset when anyone that takes advantage of her kindness. I cancelled the appointment for my Piano lessons and will NEVER recommend this place to anyone. She ruined my great mood, and now I am looking elsewhere for lessons. She almost discouraged me from continuing to play, but i had to tell myself not every place is going to be like this.
AND FYI IF YOU’RE NOT A PEOPLE PERSON, AND DON’T KNOW HOW TO SPEAK TO PEOPLE… DO NOT OWN A BUSINESS! Simple as that!
I have been trying to call to get information about/set up guitar lessons for my son. No one ever answers the phone, and the voice-mail box is full.
Knowledgeable clerks, however they have a Stand offish tone like they are too cool for the place. NOT Inviting at all. I’m not a musician just picking up items for a family member. If I can buy it on line I will….the brick and mortar is….cold.
Good musical equipment store with knowledgeable staff, many in the biz
Great place and customer service
Slow customer service.
I have visited this place over the years because it’s close to my house. I really wish I liked this place because I rather support small business than a giant like Guitar Center…but I can’t. The main problem is the return policy: it is terrible. Once I open an item I can’t return or exchange. There were many items were the damage was not my fault but the manufacturers, but the item still was not accepted. Their prices are too high as well, but sometimes they do have price matching going on.
I think the only good thing about this store is the selection of music books available. I can easily see the book’s condition without having to risk spending non-refundable money on an item.

My sister has had her kids Enrolled with Elite Music Instruction down in South Florida for over three years and both my nephews are doing great. I go down there to see them perform in the music recital every year and they are having a blast. My daughter just turned six and we decided to put her in piano lessons and it turns out that Elite Music Instruction is up here in too. So happy! Terrific service.
We started lessons with Luke about three weeks ago and it’s been such a great experience! Luke is obviously a very talented musician but more importantly (for us) he is incredibly patient and kind to our kids (8yo, 6yo, 5yo)! He’s is such a natural teacher and it’s been such an awesome experience listening and watching him teach our kids.
Valeria is the best violin instructor we have had so far. She pays attention to detail and provides a wonderful learning environment for our 10 year old son. Our son is excelling
In violin thanks to her.
Only place I’ll take my guitars for repairs , plus he has great prices on used name brand guitars
After many moons of ignoring guitar play from my earlier years due to life stuff…retrieved my early 80’s Strat from silence to have some fun noodling along with classic rock tunes. The axe needed some professional tuning and after a quick Google search Steve seemed the guy to help me. This fella is top shelf!!! Explained my history with the single owner axe and we had a great conversation about early 80’s Fender production nuances and what I wanted from the tune up. Long story short…got the guitar back in a week at a very reasonable price for the tune up. Told me…’You have any issues..bring it back and will take care of it’. 5 Stars!
Steve did a great fret job on my Les Paul. Folks who can do fretwork repairs in Ft. Lauderdale are very hard to find. There’s a good one on the east side of town.

Love the clases, their organization, how my kid is progressing on his learning. and love love love the end of year show!!!
I signed up my daughter to learn to play the drums. She comes home from lessons with a great attitude, feeling inspired by the staff and good vibes of the school. I’m really impressed with how kind and helpful the staff is, they really care and have gone above and beyond to work with us. Very cool place.
Very professional, fun way to learn, easy to engage and see rather fast results. Also the staff is friendly and the customer service is pretty good
Very good
It’s a slightly emo atmosphere, but if you like it, rock on !(bad joke)
Polite staff and family friendly environment
20. Tinted Wine Music
Address: 4178 Sabal Ridge Cir, Weston, FL 33331 , Sunshine Ranches , Florida , United States
Always reliable, on time and the quality beyond expectations, it’s been a good year working alongside with them on a variety of projects. Definitely our first choice when it comes to custom music production and sound design for commercials, cinematography and much more.
Tinted Wine Music is run by hard working men who not only go above and beyond for their projects, but are also some of the best musicians I’ve personally come to know. I’d recommend working with Alejandro, his team and his company any day.
My experience with Tinted Wine Music has been excellent. Very attentive and concise. I could not have asked for better service. A+.
