Suz has be the worst store associate. On more than occasion, she was rude and dismissive.
Really bad experience, we have been waiting 40 minutes outside the store after the opening our, and the store was close all the time, we end up leaving
3. Allegro Music Center
Address: 6869 SW 8th St, Miami, FL 33144 , Westchester , Florida , United States
Allegro Music Center is the only shop I trust with my violin repairs and maintenance. As a violin instructor, Allegro is where I send all of my students for everything from beginner 1/16th size instruments to beautiful antique full size instruments. Their friendly and knowledgeable staff is able to find each student the perfect violin. They also carry a wide variety of strings, accessories, and books. Allegro Music Center is my go to place for everything for strings!
super cheap. Good condition instruments
Amazing place if you’re looking to buy or repair any instrument. The staff was very helpful.
Great music store in the area. Highly recommend!
Good service, we have rent a double bass for one day with amplifier for a total of 210 dollars, kind people and good instruments
Bought a cello here months ago and its perfect! Especially since it is my first cello ever after recently starting. Although it was quite the investment ($1.3k), it certainly shows. No scratches or any damage at all in places that I would’ve thought it had and the bow is sturdy. The cello is pretty heavy since it’s full size but it’s okay because I’m becoming a great cellist!
Awful customer service. I called and spoke to a woman who either barely spoke English or just couldn’t care less about helping me with a simple question. I asked three times if they carried mandolins. Finally she understood what I was asking and said “I think”. I said um… can you check for me please? So she went and checked and told me they had two. I asked if they were A or F style. She had no clue what I meant. So I explained what they were. She went on to tell me “yes, most of them have eight strings,” which is completely irrelevant. Finally I got tired of doing her job for her and hung up the phone. Their mandolins are in my price range but I’d rather go somewhere else. Don’t bother attempting to shop here, just go to Guitar Center or another custom shop.
Very unprofessional business. Gave them my guitar for an easy finish repair, still waiting for the “luthier” to finish, 3 weeks after. Everytime I call them, they say it will be ready the next day and then, the next day no body call me back from allegro to say anything about the progress of my order. They have done this to me 3 times so far. Do your self a big favor and take your instrument to another place where at least they appreciate and respect you as a customer. They told me at the beginning the guitar will be ready in a week, is now the 3rd week and still counting. I asked to talk to the owner and guess what? he have not called me yet, can you imagine that? they don’t care about customer satisfaction. Very unprofessional, I will never do business with these people again. I am now crossing my finger to get my $3000 guitar back “hopefully” repaired and not damaged even more. Horrible.
Really bad experience, we have been waiting for 40 minutes outside the store after the opening hour, was all the time closed, we end up leaving

Worked with them for years when I was a band director. Awesome reliable people.
We recently needed to have my son’s clarinet repaired. My wife had been there in the past and said how nice the people were.
We entered with our broken clarinet and the guy came forward. We showed him how the clarinet was broken he took the pieces and looked at them for a couple of minutes. Then he said I’ll be right back.
While he was gone I looked around and I noticed we were surrounded by lots of instruments and also photographs signed by famous people from around Miami. Lots of musicians and stuff.
He went to a place where we could not see and I heard some grinding sounds. He came back about two minutes later and put the clarinet together again!
Then without another word, he took it apart and put it back in the box. Then he looked at us and said $10. We gave him $20.
We had expected a much longer process like maybe having to leave the clarinet for a couple of weeks, but instead he fixed it in a matter of seconds and also dropped whatever he was doing to get it done! You can’t ask for better service than that, period.
They took are school Instruments Because they were apparently “broken”! Still haven’t gotten them back yet. Its been weeks.

Mi lugar favorito en el mundo!! El señor que siempre me atiende, es muy amable y tienen mucha variedad. 5/5 estrellas.
Super fun place, they got lots of great CDs, vynils, and movies. Also, they got picked by Taylor Swift as one of the stores who got sent free 30 signed folklore CDs… really cool store.
Tremenda tienda fuera de serie!
Good place to buy cds, records, etc some are overpriced.
Oye entrar aquí es viajar en el tiempo y abrazar la buena música. Bien surtida la tienda de discos. Recomendado.
Un lurgar fuera de lo comun. Tiene musica variada
Estoy frente a la tienda , en su página aparece como abierto y en realidad , está toda apagada y cerrada , recabe resaltar que son las 10:10 am , llevan diez minutos jugando con leo tiempo de varios costumer que esperamos .
I was there with my daughter this Sunday, we were the only customers in the store, we were browsing through the records and someone started blaring the music at an uncomfortably loud volume through the speakers, I asked the lady working if she couldn’t lower the volume a bit, and she told us she could play as loud as she wanted in her store, she was incredibly rude and dismissive. Not sure if she was an employee or on of the owners, but it’s very unfortunate as I have always tried to support small local businesses and have purchased several records from them, but will not return.
dom, dic, 06, 2020, de imaginar con la ostilidad, y la mala forma con que la Sra al frente, se dirigió a mi, por Yo no saber algo, jamás hubiera entrado a la tienda….CUIDADO!!!!!, no quisiera te pasara a ti….
11. TR Music & Voice Lessons
Address: 240 SW 69th Ave, Miami, FL 33144 , Westchester , Florida , United States
My son studied piano with this school. very impressive.
My children love their classes. My son tried guitar and switched to piano. He had fun and was eager to practice. He took a summer break. My daughter has been taking voice lessons with Denice and could not love it more. The school has recitals twice a year which are lovely. Great school! Highly recommend!
I am a beginner guitar student and I have been taking lessons here for about 2 months now and feel as though I’ve made great strides in my playing. The curriculum is very well thought out and does indeed teach students concepts through songs. The staff is always friendly and willing to answer any question and will take extra pains to help students understand what’s going on.
They gave me a price over the phone that I agreed too…only to find out that they charged me and changed it completely! Oh, and they also put me on automatic payment without my consent! When I tried calling them, they did not return my calls nor my messages. They only answered my email after I first emailed them. Parents, AVOID THIS SHADY BUSINESS!
12. Musicland Digital
Address: 10000 NW 17th St, Doral, FL 33172 , Westchester , Florida , United States
Well-stocked musical instrument store, good band instrument rental rates, well-informed friendly staff, and great ukulele selection.
In the beginning we were skeptical about purchasing due to reviews. After ordering we only received apart of our shipment but after speaking with management they advised that the order was out of stock. We provided 5 stars because good business is important. We were partially refunded for the unsent items and are satisfied customers.
The guys here are great! There are always people playing music and everyone is very welcoming. They are super knowledgeable and helped me find a recorder for my child’s school as well as some guitar picks and music. They have everything you need and are well priced. I love this local store!
Mostly all was ok – but filling the fields
“country” and “region” on iphone was difficult. Those menus were non responsive and leaving them blank was rejecting my order. I had to re-do the whole process 4x, finally succeeded on Chrome, instead of Safari. ..getting charged $50 (in a fine print) for damages&loses seem unfair.
Great products & prices…online check out a bit redundant for me, but this is my first order so it was unfamiliar to me. So no issues. Yeah !! Excited to finally get my amazing piano Of my lifetime! Can’t wait! I’m sure they will get 5* review when I am all done !
Automatic add of secure shipping fee is hard to remove, but they are looking at a website change to make it less of an issue. Amazon payment method was disappearing when logging into account, but they have told me this is fixed.
Shady store. Don’t buy here, they are dishonest.
This store is very very very very very very bad ,i not recommend, stay away from this store ,false advertise, after I pay i not received all items, customer service is bad bad bad ,no answered in the phone number, i send many’s email, when finally I took with Alex provided wrong track ups number, after that i took with Pablo and asked were is my Jamstand and the response is not included in packages but in packages pictures it’s ,and i not received microphone, cable, some items this store buying form Amazon an send to me , Total mass this store……
Son estafadores! Te cobran tarifas exorbitantes cuando quieres devolver un producto, aunque ellos te lo hayan enviado incompleto y equivocado. Muy arrepentida de haber comprado aquí!
14. Miami Guitars
Address: 4703 SW 72nd Ave, Miami, FL 33155 , Westchester , Florida , United States
Very nice place. Small with a lot of selection and friendly staff.
Just wanted to give a quick shout-out to Miles at Miami Guitars for giving me a helluva deal on a great guitar (2018 Taylor k14ce Builder’s Edition). Great communication, smooth transaction, and it arrived at my doorstep a day-and-a-half later. Oh, and it sounds pretty spectacular. THANK YOU!!
In Miami from the UK for a month, needed guitar to keep me sane… and this was the nearest store. It turned out to be a brilliant find! A marvellous independent with all the great service you’s expect, Miles was a great host. I managed to bag a great Eastman at a good price. Tempted to buy the Bourgeois but maybe next time! Highly recommended. Dave Mac, UK.
Miles and the entire team are super responsive and offer great prices. Incredible service and expedited shipping made for a wonderful experience.
Made a special trip out to Miami Guitars only to find them not open. Their Google and Facebook pages both say open Saturday’s 11-6 but it looks like they might not keep weekend hours which is a shame. Might have to try next time I’m in Miami.
Communication was a bit rough at first. However, after working out some kinks and lining up a specific model (EBMM JP15 Blood Orange) the process was smooth. Received the guitar in excellent condition and it sounds and plays amazingly. Couldn’t be happier. Thanks!
Muy elevado precio
Just drove up from the Keys to looks for a new guitar, based on reviews this was high on my list of places to check out. Not sure what place everyone else is going to that they are giving such good reviews but the pace I went to looks nothing like the pictures on google. I had to ring a door bell to get in, after waiting a few minutes I was greeted by a young lady who barely spoke English and seemed hesitant to let me in. Once she did she told me no one was available to talk to me about guitars and that maybe I could talk to someone on Friday (today is Wednesday). Major disappointment, I won’t be driving back up on Friday.
This place does not exist. I drove 30 minutes because I heard good things. The pictures on the website and Google are from an old location. I walked in and it’s an abandoned room (see picture). There was one woman saying they no longer do repairs or sell guitars. I don’t know what it used to be but now it’s a scam or some kind of front. Stay away!
Very talented young man. He can play anything. From classical to modern music.
High energy. Aim to please. Definitely will make your party , wedding etc. a success.

Rodrigo Padilla is the man you have to ask for. The most calm and nice store associate I’ve met since buying in Sam Ash for a lot, a lot, a lot of years. He went out if his way to help me with different orders, never complained, never made a face, super super cool dude. Good job Sam Ash, these are the types of guys you need to give a raise and promote so that you keep having success. Great Customer service in a business is everything.
I really appreciate the time that the manager of pro audio (Raul) and the story manager (Mike) took to make sure I had a great experience at Sam Ash. After Raul rang me up, Mike turned away from what he was doing to spend a couple of minutes to ask me about the product I bought and to give it a good look and talk about its qualities. I have always found Mike to be an engaged manager who tunes into customers. I was happy to see that in Raul, who I met for the first time, as well. Steve
I purchased a guitar at the Sam Ash Music store located at Dolphin Mall. The sales person was Ramon. If you need to purchase a guitar. GO TO RAMON… His attitude is awesome. He honest. And very enthusiastic. He knows how to do his job. Thanks to Ramon. Im am pleased to have purchased my guitar. Thank You Ramon
great place to get all your instruments and music stuff
excellent team to answer questions
The staff didn’t seem interested in helping much. I asked a question and it seemed like I was bothering. What I needed was a bit more expensive than the other music store. Unlike the other music store you really can’t touch much equipment here unless you ask permission or unless you are in the piano section. I’m a drummer so when I visit a store like this I love to sit behind the drums and play a bit. Here you can’t do that. They have a stage but you can’t go in it unless you ask. I’m sure everyone’s experience is different no matter where you go. I didn’t bother to ask if they had price match.
Les comento que fui un día a averiguar por un teclado KORG NAUTILUS y realmente no me atendieron bien y además, cuando logramos que el teclado suene en los monitores estaba MONO y muy mal ecualizado. Fea Experiencia. Pero a los pocos días me atendió VICTOR ( otro vendedor) y la experiencia fue muy buena. Compré parlantes potenciados, auriculares Audio Technica un pie de teclado y otras cosas y la atención fue excelente. Compro en SAM ASH hace más de 30 años
Terrible, if you buy online you don’t get the right thing, in store they don’t have in stock. Even my gift card expired couple of days and they said sorry. Poor customer service
Customer service is slow. No merchandise available. Paying for an item takes a long time. I would rather order online and skip the bad customer service experience in store. One employee was very nice and apologized for the bad customer experience.
On Jan 12, went to Sam Ash store in Dolphin mall. My experience was not what I expected. Around 4pm while in the guitar section the employee was sitting behind counter instead of helping the few customers in the store. The only time the employee left the counter was when a guitar fell. The employee was cussing a storm having no regard there are customers and family in the store. Instead of helping me or getting me someone to help me he storm of cussing out loud. Its clear this employee has some anger problems and should not be attending customers if he can’t control himself.
