Where to find the best music shops in Thorsby? Top-14 options

This place is awesome. Very nice guitars and equipment from vintage to new. I highly recommend shopping here.

Good selection of guitars. Good prices. Very nice owner

Very cool down to earth owner. Will work with you and help you find the guitar you need and not try to push it onto you. Awesome selection of guitars+more. Very good prices and will work with you to make a deal! Would recommend this over any other guitar store any day of the week. Support local businesses especially when they are awesome!

Best music studio in the heart of Alabama! You can record your next hit single , shoot a music video , have photos taken , and even get drum lessons! Definitely the place to be!

It’s been a great place for the beginning of my career. They have taken time to help me really develop myself as an artist. Alex Morris and Raquaez Cora are very good at what they do.

Your music videos are awesome man. I watch every single one. Keep working young man. You are definitely the Goat

Highly, highly recommend to anyone who want to take there music to the next level!!

I just ordered a custom Martin guitar from Dan at Guitar Gallery in Pelham, and I could not be more pleased. The process was very enjoyable and exciting, and, as always, I was treated respectfully and very well, as always. This is why I keep coming back. I encourage anyone looking for a Martin guitar (or any other brand) to call or visit Dan or Tre before buying elsewhere. You simply will not find a better place, or nicer, more professional people.

Really nice staff. They’re always really helpful and pleasant.

Guitar Gallery is a music store that I highly recommend!! They buy and sell vinyl records and have a good selection of music instruments and equipment. They have many things that are budget friendly and will beat other store prices. I always used Sweetwater Sound for everything but now I have a store to go to that I like more than the others in my area. Trey and Nathan are very knowledgeable and friendly and will go the extra mile to assist you in most all things music related. They traded me a great deal on my old Fender Mustang GT100 (not the GTX) for the BOSS Katana100MK2…best amp trade I’ve ever made!! Definitely my “go to” music store for strings, cables, picks, pedals, etc.. They post a lot of items on the Guitar Gallery Instagram site, (maybe Facebook too but I don’t use Facebook). Anyway, great store and great staff, check them out in Pelham! I plan to go to their store in Tuscaloosa when I’m there again. An easy 5-Stars!

Good

Good product, Good service.

Lots of great records for sale!

These people are not honest and they will rip you off !

Sadly, it appears that GG is moving away from guitars — their bread and butter. This is no longer the place where I bought a Taylor 614ce and a Rickenbacker 381. Nowadays there’s not much of a selection, and the actual Fenders, etc., have been replaced by the cheaper, Asian-made cousins from Squier and the like. Too bad; I know times are tough, but it seems that GG is running up the white flag and surrendering.

Good folks

Great customer service and friendly staff! Would recommend to anyone.

Absolutely love these guys. These guys are very kind and will help you with anything you need musically. And if they can’t (which is very rare) they will point you to those who can help. Great prices and even better people.

Lance and Tracy are nice folks. They have a good selection of strings and accessories. Neat place for obscure instruments.

Friendly

I’ve worked with several music stores throughout the state of Alabama- both as a personal musician & as a music director in the schools- & my experience with Art’s Music has been professional, helpful, & quick. Their service is wonderful, & they are knowledgeable in many school band & orchestra areas. I highly recommend using them for your instrument needs.

I have bought two saxophones here. And most recently some accessories. There’s usually someone here that is knowledgeable about the things I need and the questions I have. It has always been a a good experience for me.

They awesome and they help out with beginner band

It’s nice that stores like Art’s are still around.

Wonderful customer service

Very helpful but the instruments are pretty expensive

Awful place, horrible customer service, and the insurance isn’t worth a damn! Gadsden Music is way better!

No se los recomiendo, es mejor comprar en online

No help prices to high

We always go here for our musical needs. I love the place. They are always friendly and helpful. I would recommend any musician to this place.

As always Bailey Bros did not let me down. Looking for a ukulele to play with my great niece’s. Excellent help with no pressure to purchase but always close to answer questions. Only place for all your musical needs. Martin, Takamine, Alvarez and Ibanez (not shown). Yes I love Bailey ❤ Bros!!

Great people to do business, they were the only place in Alabama that could fix our churches Roland keyboard. Great service, thank you!!

Good selection of musical equipment. Be prepared because they strictly enforce the muzzle mandate inside. They make you wear masks.

Good service. Knowledgeable staff. Wish there was one closer to us!

I needed to buy instruments for my Middle School kids. They were very upfront with their prices and seemed to have the best deals.

No stars really. Not a very good merchant. Let someone use my credit card number without the card! Be careful!

Recently brought a used instrument to these guys to be cleaned and conditioned. They charged $230 and I’m not really sure what they did beyond $40 worth of repairing. I even priced the individual parts myself and they cost a total of $23. The instrument was very dirty and they didn’t even do a good or complete job of wiping it down. We didn’t get any paperwork explicitly stating what they were going to do so we can’t really argue the point. The inside of the instrument wasn’t even touched during cleaning because there is obvious dust and grime that was there when we gave it to these guys.

We also bought a mouthpiece for the instrument, I previously priced it at $10 online and it was $35 at this place. An outrageous markup.

All of this was after agreeing to a monthly payment for an instrument only to be informed the day before it was needed that they didn’t have any in stock so we had to scramble to find a different option. Because of this, they also didn’t send us a cleaning kit for the instrument that had been fully paid for.

I will be looking for another place for any other instrument needs.

I would use profane language, but it would not adequately describe the crap this company pulled. Basically, I took my brother to trade a PRISTINE first-owner amp, and we could prove it, in for a Fender Hot Rod Deluxe, used, which is of equal value….and my brother coughed up $100.

I took off work to take him to initially buy the thing. I took off work to bring it in for repair when we discovered sticky crap on the power tubes, and I ended up working until 10PM thanks to these guys. They wanted me to take off work again, after having spent 5 hours in their store. I basically spoke up and said, he might be the customer, but I’m the wheelman, and I’m furious. I mentioned the fact of the wasted gas, wasted trips, and the at least 6 hours of driving they were expecting of me.

They checked OUR amp out very thoroughly, and even treated my brother like a criminal, saying they are getting his DL in case he stole it. SERIOUSLY people….

I tried to talk some business sense with them, asking them to do something for the trouble, and it would not have taken much. They said no. Then I asked if they can just reverse everything since ALL of the stuff was still in the store…. The guy made up a story of a law, which actually doesn’t exist, then claiming he has to charge extra to reverse it all. Guitar Center evidently doesn’t know about this (fake) law.

Not ONLY that, but the smug, d-bag attitude that the guy gave me when pushing my brother, his CUSTOMER aside to say “you don’t think we’re trying to rip you off do you?” He did this to put me on the spot, and tried to make me look like the bad guy.

In the end, my brother spent another $170 to get a new model. In the end, he got what he wanted, but we are both appalled by how the guy behaved to our faces. Beware, their used gear has NO warranty, but they represented at sale that they would ensure the gear works if something went wrong like the day we get it… Well… it did.

You don’t take someone’s $700 amp + $100 and then give them junk, and not try to do something proper after dragging someone thru hell. That’s the bottom line. I tried more than the guy at this store. You won’t catch us in that place again.

Considering the tens of thousands that my brother spent with other companies, Bailey Brothers missed an opportunity… Not good business. Dishonest, rude, and outright condescending. Smiled at us when we expressed our frustration with the runaround….

Great Place

They have great advice, and amazing adtitude. Theu have camo capos!!!!!!~keelie

The staff is very helpful and knowledgeable. Instrumental instructors are very good and great rate for classes.

Great local guitar store. Eric does a great job running this store.

Friendly staff and good service for a small buisness . your go to place if you dont want to drive a 100 miles to Guitar Center store .

Great sales,super repair work!

The people are nice but the stuff you buy here is garbage.

I went in yesterday and asked about a Gretch open back banjo on the back wall that didn’t have a price tag. The reply I got from the bearded gent behind the counter was ” I don’t know, probably $300 or something”, and then he walked away like I didn’t exist. The vibe I got from him was “I dont want to help you. I won’t help you”. I buy a LOT of instruments and spend thousands of dollars per year on all sorts of music equipment, but this store has shown me that they don’t want my business and they aren’t interested in having any sort of customer care. I didn’t want to go to Guitar Center anymore, I would like to buy from a local store, but Guitars and More has discouraged me from doing any business with them. My advice to other customers is to go elsewhere. They don’t want your business and they don’t deserve your business.
