Knowledgeable and friendly staff; they are helpful and will take as much time as necessary to help you make the right choice. Service after the sale is phenomenal. These guys really know how to set a guitar up perfectly.
Awesome & knowledgable staff. I will return t tent/ purchase my daughters Clarinet
Well stocked and organized with music of all sorts. Employees are patient and don’t mind helping.
Good place to buy musical instruments.
Great staff,very helpful, quick in and out service. Easy to find!
Friendly staff.
My daughter gave them all the correct information for her banking and the 3rd month they billed her for overdue payment. When she called to make sure they had the correct information they still refused to take off the late charge when it was evidently no fault of hers. They rip people off!
I hate this shop. I have paid an exorbitant amount of money for this stupid clarinet that my daughter plays at school. It’s hard to set up payments. Do not like!!!!! Uggggh, I cannot wait until this is over
Taken advantage of! I purchased a trombone for my son, Feb 2019, as he was in the school band. For irrelevant circumstances my son is not continuing band. The cost of the trombone was $1100. Six months later I take the trombone back to Art’s Music store to sell it back to them. The store manager told me he would give $90! The trombone had been gently used. I didn’t expect that low of an offer. I feel as though Art’s Music is taking advantage of the fact that they are one of few music stores in the Montgomery area. My son will continue in playing music but we will NEVER spend another $ with Art’s Music. Parents please shop around and know who you are dealing with!

I needed some acoustic guitar strings and I called and they had them in stock , and they had so much more , great service .. I was pleased
Knowledgeable, talented, and friendly. He took time to explain the process of repairing the 2 guitars we left. Awesome people, busy lil shop. We’re looking forward to our trip bach there to retrieve the guitars. Well worth the 2 hour drive.
Bought a violin here at a great price, sounds great and it’s beautifully set up. Bob is the man, very knowledgeable and personable. Best music shop in town.
Friendly atmosphere and lots of instruments.
Good product, Good service.
I’ve never dealt with someone so rude over the phone. The owner tried to guilt me with sarcasm and acted like victim when I questioned a price. Full story: I asked to order a cello string. All was going well (owner answered questions about speed of shipping and availability of the string), but then he quoted a price ($81) that was far above what other shops charge. I said respectfully that “I’ve purchased the string for $45 at other walk-in shops” and he became sarcastic and argumentative with me, claiming he was “holding my hand” through the process, and said “Well, I have to pay $35 for this string so what do YOU think is fair for ME to make? $15? What is 35 + 15, huh? Ohhh, maybe $50 is more than you can afford?” A simple, “well this is my price” would have been fine as a response from him, but I felt disrespected so I hung up and decided I’m never going to spend a dime Homewood Musical Instrument Co. I advise everyone else to steer clear of this shop and the guy who owns it.

When I rate or refer a person or place I focus on quality of products and or services, customer service, accessibility, and atmosphere created by the facility and people. The review of 1 star saying just a small music store isn’t accurate, same person gave dollar General 3 stars. Instead of filling a warehouse full of every kind of item imagined making it hard to find what you need, these people filled a warm, vibrant building with the best instruments, prices, services, and love for music and people! I’ve been there broke and wishing, and been there with money to buy, never treated less than the owner himself. Highly recommended!
Ron and his staff are friendly and knowledgeable of musical instruments. Great prices and great service!
Best music store around had a small selection because of the soze of the store but still had everything i needed great customer service and an amazing experience
It’s a standard small music store. There aren’t a lot of new high end instruments here, but they are all very nice folks.
Large selection!! Beautiful instruments!!
Wonderful music store.Friendly staff. Very helpful in supplying me with what I needed from instrument to private music lessons.
Walked in today to look around and from the moment I walked in the door, the older gentleman (I guess the owner?) had his eye on me and was watching me like a hawk, made me feel unwelcome to be there. He asked if I was looking for anything in particular and when I told him very politely he didn’t have what I was looking for he arrogantly told me “I opened this store in 1973 and everything you see in the store is priced the same as you’d get it online” like ok bud I wasn’t complaining about the price you just don’t have what I was looking for. When I told him I wasn’t looking to buy today, and was just looking around he made a sarcastic comment about “well if you’re not buying, we can just put this back on the shelf” ??? I continued to walk around and look at some more product and he continued to watch me like a hawk until I got in my car and pulled out of the parking spot. All of my musician friends have recommended I don’t frequent this store, and I can honestly say, after that experience, I will not and will tell anyone that asks not to either. Lousy excuse for customer service.
I read reviews for this shop and thought it was an honest place to sell my gear. I walked in with an Epiphone AJ 220, with an Epiphone molded hardshell case I bought seperately, and an Epiphone “Snake Pit” 15w practice amp. ALL in like new condition. She plugged the guitar in and it was only the fourth time it had ever been plugged in. I never put the guitar in the case without wiping it down first. Look everything I listed up for yourself, and you’ll see what I lost. I messed up and let the lady know that I was in dire need of money for my family. The old guy asked where I bought it, and when I told him, he said he’d lost alot of business to “places like that”. No. I looked around the shop, and all he had was used gear that had been repaired and put up for sale. Junk. My guitar was the nicest instrument there! The reason he’s losing business is because he’s trying to sell junk and beating people in need out of what their instruments are worth. The lady acted like she was on Pawn Stars! If I hadn’t had needed the money really bad, I would have told her where she could stick her $200! That’s all they gave me for everything I brought in. Look up the items I listed, and you’ll see I did my part to support this business! The reviews I read must have been friends of theirs, because they definately misled me. Not fair at all.

Great place for all your instruments and gear,knowledgeable staff can help meet your needs.
Nice staff clean store and can stock items for regulars. Mostly past era guitars though. Otherwise it’d be 5 stars
Staff are very helpful and prompt!
Little out of place win I went and ask about a instrument
Rude did not want to wait on customer like it was bothering them
Exelente
There’s one guy there (Chet ? Chester?) who is really nice. The older gentleman comes across like he’d rather be in his office or something rather than dealing with the public. Seems he can’t keep young and talented help either, which may also be a result of his extremely unapproachable personality. I agree with the other reviewer … Decatur needs another music store.
It’s music for crying out loud … the atmosphere does not lend itself to the encouragement of instrument try out. It always seems so cold and uninviting. Not to mention that the selection is poor. No used instruments either.

Andrew Martin always goes above and beyond! You have any guitar problems or questions give him a call or visit! He takes care of his customers.
I highly recommend this place for you instrument owners out there! If you have guitar problems or such, this is the best place to go. They are very helpful and knowledgeable.

Super friendly and courteous service. I was allowed to look without any pressure. This was the best shopping experience I’ve had in a long time. I was able to get the exact guitar my son wanted. Highly recommend Andy’s Music!
We had a great experience with Andy’s Music, piano Came just as we were told and works perfectly we are enjoying it very much.
Quick shipping, very reasonable in pricing. Product was exactly what we were hoping for from the description!
good
This is a nice place with a wide selection of instruments and other musical paraphernalia. My only issue is that the staff were cold/snobbish toward my brother and me. Could’ve just been my impression… though, they weren’t very helpful when we asked questions. Anyway, overall a good store.
Knowledgeable staff with patience
My experience at Andy’s was horrible. I called and ask do they have any piano music for beginners and was told yes. The sales person was friendly over the phone but the minute I arrived her whole attitude changed. She didn’t want to help me. I walked around for about 15 minutes waiting to ask for help but the staff pretended to be busy even when no one was in the store. The minute a Caucasian person walked in, they were at their beck and call ready to help. I was so excited about buying music so I can practice my piano, but after being treated like dirt my attitude changed. I wish people would learn that know matter what color you are, one is know better than the other. Please stop believing that lie!
Good for guitar strings that’s about it
Terrible place to do business. Failed promises and wasted time. Not willing to negotiate. Will not answer questions directly and instead will offer you a service plan. My daughter brought her clarinet in multiple times and they said nothing wrong with it. Today they said it has needed regulated for over 6 months. DO NOT TRUST THESE PEOPLE. They are only in it for the money.
Previously, when my daughter brought the clarinet in to be looked at for the continuing problem, we were going to buy a new clarinet when they offered no interest for 6 mos. financing. The associate told me to go to the website and I wasted about 45 minutes worth of time to find out they required over 20% interest, to the tune of well over $300. When I asked the associate why what they told me was false, I was told they have no control over what happens on the website with the financing.
Contrary to the response given to this review, none of what was offered here was mentioned in the phone call. The clarinet was brought in and told nothing wrong with it. I went to another music store and had my daughter buy a professional clarinet for not much more than Andy’s wanted for the Intermediate.
I specifically asked in my phone call if there are any incentives offered and was flat told no.
The response by the owner is crafted to make you think they are great at service by mentioning the rental and the last service time, but if they were really that great, they would know that the clarinet is currently in their shop for regulation. If it has only been 6 mos. since it was serviced and there is a problem with it where it has been brought in at least twice to be looked at since then, why was I told today on the phone that it has needed a regulation for 6 mos?
I now know there is another option in MS and should it still not work when we get it back, it will go there. Yes, in the past we have done business with Andy’s as they hinted at in their response, but when we are done with Andy’s, I will be extremely happy.
