Great store, good chat with the owner, check it when you are next in town.
My son is taking guitar lesson from Eric and he is a very good teacher. My son loves going to class every week and he has learn a lot in a very short time. He is very affordable, very reliable and consistent. I recommend him as a teacher and his nice store with a lot of instruments.
Great experience, the owner Eric, was beyond helpful. My first guitar lesson was awesome; Great teacher in my opinion. I would highly recommend this music store to anyone especially first timers. There was no pressure to buy just very helpful service and advice.
My son was in need of a flute for junior high band. They had a great price on a used one and were very knowledgeable. Thank you!
Not much of a selection,,a lot of really low end pieced together mutt guitars and amps.
Tried very hard to engage counter man in conversation,,but he just preferred to sit quietly while I looked over tiny inventory…..guess I will keep looking for a music store.

Address: 425 Teegarden Ave, Yuba City, CA 95991 , Sutter , California , United States
A great place to find your music instrument needs. Good staff
Just needed guitar strings.
Right as I walked through the door, two warm and polite ladies looked up attentively from their tasks, and one gently asked if she could help me find what I was looking for.
I answered and she swiftly glided to the appropriate section, quickly but clearly pointed out the entire selection available, and courteously left me to ponder my options.
How pleasant that was!
I saw the staff were attentive but I knew I could take my time and study my options. Being in the professional environment of a music store was a rare treat. I was glad for the chance to study the current products on the market, acquaint myself with the info on the packaging and refresh my knowledge of what to buy for various musical purposes.
And, as she adeptly rang me up and had to wait through 3 cards as we tried to find the one with the money on it, she was imperturbable and ever so pleasant, as was her coworker, a very pretty lady, who looked on while still continuing her own work, as if ready to lend a hand if needed.
This store is run by some seriously healthy and good spirited, professional people.
Kudos. Good Place.
Thank You, Pete’s Music
Your a really nice place to go for musical supplies.
I highly recommend.
Very friendly and welcoming staff. Love this place
Pete is a great pro sound resource, this place takes care of so many teachers and students for instruments and support materials. Again the hours are cutback due to lack of help.
Great staff, daughter gets lesssons good prices, but not alot of parking
Great place to get musical equipment fixed highly recommend
Didnt like it
Too pricy.
The owner’s response speaks for itself. I’m not a disgruntled ex employee let go by the business owner. I am a proud ex manager who quit, even after being begged to stay, because I have standards and ethics. 41 years in business where I managed the shop and the owner was no where to be found for almost half the time he had been in business. Every response to every review listed here on google was done by me up until I left in March 2022. I cared. The owner lies, trash talks, chastised me for years for having children, put down my co-workers based off his interpretation of their intelligence, as well as put many customers in uncomfortable positions by bringing up their dating life or mentioning the size of overweight women. I witnessed this all first hand.
My response to the owner. Do not insinuate I am a disgruntled ex employee. Leaving Petes Music is the best thing I could have ever done for myself and my family. It’s not my fault you’re bitter.
Original review prior to owners response: Change in management due to the poor working conditions and the staff being placed in uncomfortable situations due to the owner’s (Pete’s) behavior. The place is no longer what it was and has been the past 18+ years and I doubt it will ever be. I will frequent only to support my cello instructor and maintain my educational efforts with her.

Lots of vinyl record digging to be done here I like it
They came to me immediately and explained how their products were organized and helped me with what I was looking for. If you’re looking for a place that with a wide selection and helpful people, then here’s your spot!
This is the most down to earth, soulful, laid-back music store… (If you’re 21 or over) Ask Burt to show you his “smoking” pipes… [I use mine for marijuana. I am just unsure if “tobacco pipe” is correct anymore…] His demo will leave your month dropped and probably asking how much…
Hey Bert!!!
Stopped in to look for some vinyl to add to my collection, it’s a nice little shop and the guy working there (owner?) was very nice and helped look for a few things for me. They don’t have a huge selection compared to some record shops, but they had a lot of good stuff and it was all pretty fairly priced. The records were all fairly well organized and alphabetized, but the shop itself was a bit disorganized and crowded feeling. The incense was very strong so if you’re sensitive to strong smells it might be bit much.
A little crowded no room for a weel chair I don’t believe
6. Skips Marysville Music Cafe
Address: 321 D St, Marysville, CA 95901 , Sutter , California , United States
Skip and his team are great teachers. They know their stuff!
Skip’s great; helpful, friendly, knowledgable, experienced. This is a great little musician’s paradise. If music is your passion, stop in and you’ll be very pleasantly impressed.
A cozy little music shop in downtown Marysville on the outside but inside is a full stage with sound and lights and recording capabilities. Go here and tell em Spike sent ya!
Great friendly helpful people. Open mic night was great. Check it out.
It’s small, but skip is always willing to help. Go check out live music, have a soda, buy a bass. It’s a pretty cool shop.
They were technically closed but the door was open , ( had a young man on the drum kit ,3rd lesson and was coming along ) I introduced myself , Skip was very nice and accommodating .He informed me of open mic night , I’m looking forward to laying some southern blues slide guitar downtown!! Thanks for being so cool Skip. Your bro from Ga , Van
7. French Whisk
Address: 1974 Acacia Ave, Sutter, CA 95982 , Sutter , California , United States
Lovely atmosphere and friendly people with true brag worthy Food. We are going back this Thursday
THE PIG PICKING CAKE WAS DELICIOUS! THE BREAD WAS SUPER GOOD ALL THE FLAVOR WAS THERE IT REMINDED ME OF THE ONE THE CAKE LADY USED TO MAKE. DEFINITELY WILL BUY AGAIN! EVER SINCE CAKE LADY CLOSED DOWN IHAVE BEEN SREACHING FOR THE RIGHT PIG PICKING CAKE AND THIS WAS IT!!! THANK YOU! <3
I’ve been there twice recently when the Google site said they were open but they were closed. I was supposed to be meeting other people there so I had to contact all of them and tell them not to come. It’s very discouraging. It’s hard to know when they’re open or not.
I have supported the French Whisk for a long time now . I have recommended the restaurant to many friends and nine out of 10 times it is delicious, on one occasion my friend and I both ordered the roasted chicken salad it came with feta cheese bacon tomatoes and some hard-boiled egg that was diced up, Before we mixed our salad with the dressing I tasted the egg first and it was definitely sour and bad and my friends was the same as well good thing it wasn’t mixed in the salad. I went in and let the girl at the cash register that took our order know of the bad eggs and all she said was ,” Oh I’m sorry“! , in my book that is the wrong reply I said to her,” you need to let somebody know in the kitchen that the eggs are bad“ I would’ve had appreciated that whoever made the food would’ve came out and apologized and offered to give me a discount or have given our meal for free . The lack of a response showed me that it wasn’t important that my salad had bad eggs in it. This is unacceptable and not professional hopefully they will take care of people when they have some grievances with something that isn’t quite right.
Friendly employees and a clean environment.
We like to support local, small business, but most likely will not be back.
They’re only open two days this week – Friday and Saturday, from 8am-2pm. We decided to come out at 11am on Friday to make sure we could try their brunch. Their brunch menu had 5 items on it, one being cinnamon walnut French toast. They were not making it. Nowhere was it posted. They only had 2 or 3 of the 5 items on their menu available. Id think when you’re only open 2 days a week, you’d have the items you advertise? I ended up just not having anything. My mom got a chicken bacon avocado wrap that was already made from the fridge and only ate half because it just wasn’t that great. It also didn’t have avocado, which was in the name? My boyfriend got the “pressed” Cuban sandwich. They gave it to us cold. It also had like no meat on it. This was essentially a ham sandwich, not a Cuban. Also, it was cold and not pressed. The sandwich was $13, a little ridiculous. This place is way over priced for what you get and I was not impressed that we made the drive only to find out that all they had was a shrimp cocktail and prime rib breakfast available out of their brunch selection and it was not posted anywhere. And their lunches were basically cold sandwiches and wraps. The outside seating was nice and the pastries looked really good, but wouldn’t be back for food.

they never really have what I want here but I come here a lot because I have a crush on the cute cashier lmao
Neat store with cool inventory! Good prices on movies and shirts!
A bit dated, but has interesting stuff.
They had exactly what i was looking for!
I really enjoy all the anime stuff and movies! Great store for Funko Pops also!
Way over priced. There’s plenty of competition out there so shop around
They used to be much better nowadays nothing is organized you can’t find anything that you’re looking for So I give FYE 1 star I think they need to be much better organized things need to be in alphabetical order or least in numeric order
Meh…. same old overpriced stuff. Almost everything in there you can get in amazon cheaper. Only really go here if you can’t wait to get it on amazon.

This is obviously not a typical guitar store Caleb. This is a specialty situation you wouldn’t understand….. and I am a stranger, not affiliated at all.
Very awesome guy, very friendly and very knowledgeable!!!
Has no hours and is just a random house.
