I initially worked with Dana, to which I found Dana very knowledgeable and pleasant. I finished my purchase with Jordan and I found Jordan to be very knowledgeable and friendly.<\/p>\n

I shopped 3 or 4 other dealers in the Birmingham and Tuscaloosa area and Argo Power Equipment gave me a great price and unmatched service.<\/p>\n

I highly recommend the entire team and it was worth the hour drive to deal with such a professional, knowledgeable and friendly staff.<\/p>\n

Kudos, to Argo Power Equipment on a job well done.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I went to buy a pully for 0 turn mower it was going to cost $64.00 I looked online and got it for $17.00 that\u2019s ridiculous. But the people were very nice.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Did not get the service I was promised. I would not recommend. When I arrived to pick up chainsaw they didn\u2019t sharpen my old chain, as I was told, \u201cis a standard service.\u201d I was told they threw my old chain in scrap bin. These chains are custom made and not cheap. I wouldn\u2019t have a problem with price if you did what they said but are $$$ considering the service.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Nice selection of new and used guitars. Needs a jam space though..<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

WAS our trusted source for guitars and gear.
\nTook in a Seagull acoustic to have the battery and strings replaced at the end of December 2020(only having someone else do it because of the value of the guitar).
\nThe battery went dead MUCH faster than normal (usually takes 6 months). We are very aware that leavi g guitars plugged in drai s the battery. That was NOT the case here. We took it out and found they had installed a promotional Progressive Insurance smoke detector battery in it. Instead of what we are used to getting, Energizer or Duracell. I called and was told that we should have told them we wanted a better battery. It cost us more than $30 for the strings and a battery replacement. No offer to replace it. The lady said they just use whatever is \u201chandy\u201d. I don\u2019t pay for what\u2019s handy. So much for being Pro\u2019s. If the lady had simply apologized, that would have been the end of it. I wasn\u2019t looking for anything other than to let them know that a substandard battery had been installed. When we brought it in initially, we asked for the strings to be changed and the battery replaced. No one told us at that time that we weren\u2019t being charged for the battery, just that what we asked for was $30, if I had been advised of that I would have either asked for a better battery or brought my own. I hung up when her tone told me how disgusted she was that I called with a problem. As for my other reviews of other businesses you mentioned, I review honestly and fairly. If you notice, I have many very positive reviews of several companies in the area. I managed customer service depts with 4 Fortune 500 Companies in my career. Again, I wasn\u2019t asking for anything except courtesy, which was unfortunately lacking. The lady I spoke with had a \u201chow dare you complain\u201d kind of attitude. (modified for clarity based on the reply from the company)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I bought a guitar for $2,875 from this shop online and they listed it as mint condition. I had to take it to a local luthier to have the frets polished because they were so dirty the guitar was unplayable. The shop refused to even split the cost ($50), wow! Incredible.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
I will never set foot in this place again. Not that they will care. Thought I would give it another chance after several years. Nothing has changed so now I know for sure.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I was informed this business sold auto sound equipment, they don\u2019t. They might in the future but for now it\u2019s only musical instruments, speakers, and such. I can\u2019t rate something I don\u2019t use but I had to pick a number so I thought the more colorful the more attractive (lol). I will say the employee was very nice and commented they get a lot of request for auto sound equipment. Maybe down the road they\u2019ll install car stereos?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I dont appreciate the employee sending a customer to chase my wife and I down accusing her of stealing. We were looking for headphones and in a hurry. Didnt see what we needed and left. Pull up at Bill\u2019s and some other customer is yelling at my wife to return what she stole\u2026I\u2019ve been trying to call and sort this out since we got home. Phones go straight to message saying call again later. March 31st 4:15pm..<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The folks at Art\u2019s are top notch people who were incredibly helpful and most importantly, expressed themselves to be true enthusiasts of music themselves. They may be \u201csalesmen\u201d, but they came off more as highly knowledgeable fellow shoppers that had very straightforward and non-salesy opinions of the Breedlove acoustics and G&L electrics I was looking into. I had a really fun time trying out at least 10 different guitars in a relaxed but helpful atmosphere. Importantly, every guitar they had on the wall was expertly setup with appropriately filed nuts, adjusted saddles, and perfect relief on the necks. The Breedlove Organic Series Concerto I purchased was legitimately came as perfectly setup as you can get right off the display wall. I just with they had a store in my hometown of New Orleans, LA.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I laid way electric drum set I paid it off in 3 months when I came to pick up my drum set they gave me the display set on the floor they didn\u2019t even bother to clean it and and dumped everything in the box and hand it to me, when I got home I was very disappointed so I called them and they said this is what you purchased. After long talk to their manager they decided to give us a new one. And send me a card for customer satisfaction to know how they treated me. If you\u2019re planning to Layaway anything make sure to tell them I wanted to be a brand new never used and when you buy it open it in the store to make sure you get what you pay for.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

This place is a joke. I called and asked about a mellophone and was told that they had several from me to choose from. I get there and they had one that was new and one from the 70\u2019s they tried sell me. I will stay with Bailey Brothers.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

They have good instruments, but when I walked in, I walked straight past about 3 or 4 employees who were unoccupied at the moment and nobody said a word to me. I will never visit or buy from them ever in my life.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I have bought a LOT of equipment from these guys over the years. They have the best brands at good prices. Always super nice and knowledgeable about their products. My go to music store in central Alabama. They are like family. We are lucky to have them here.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

It was my first time in the store and I had an excellent experience. David was very helpful and friendly as well as the other staff present. The online site lacks a lot of the guitars they have in stock because they get new guitars a lot so I would advise actually going into the store to see their wide selection.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Good selection of musical equipment. Be prepared because they strictly enforce the muzzle mandate inside. They make you wear masks.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

This place is as good as, if not better than, Guitar Center. But this one man that works there is not the friendliest and makes me and my music buddy never wanna come again\u2026 I was gonna buy at least $20-$60 of stuff, and my buddy was gonna get his guitar worked on, but we decided against it after our experience today.
\nMy friend and I were playing our guitars together at moderate volumes. No louder than the other customers that passed through. Our volume knobs probably were set around 1. This rude clerk guy came up to us and told us \u201cturn it down, there are customers in here\u201d. When there was maybe 1 other guy in the guitar room at most. What are we, trash? Are we not customers?
\nThough to be fair, there was a little kid who sat behind us who was louder than both of us combined, and he was tremolo picking the most random nonsensical annoying noise (future shredder?), but he should\u2019ve told the kid to turn down\u2014not us. We both turned our amps off because he was rude the last time we were in the store and we were pretty annoyed at this point. But the kid turned his amp down and continued the random picking and the dude immediately came back and said \u201chey, okay, turn it off, that\u2019s enough for today\u201d and took the guitar from the kid. The rudest music store clerk we\u2019ve ever encountered. There\u2019s another guy who is super nice that works there who let us turn the volume up\u2014at least 2 or 3 times what we did today\u2014and test every amp in the store. We bought a $2,000 setup from the nice guy in the past, but this rude guy would probably kick us out of the store before we could make a purchase. I didn\u2019t catch his name, but he\u2019s average height, blondish, his hair is thinning, and he had a short beard. A nicer worker told us he\u2019s been there 3 years, though I\u2019m not sure how he\u2019s lasted that long. He\u2019ll probably follow you around like you\u2019re a thief and ask if he can help you 8 times like he did to us the last time we came in the store simply to buy a cable.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I left my guitar with this store in February 2012 for a simple repair. In June it was still hanging waiting for them to repair. I had been told on multiple occasions that it would be ready in just a few days. I picked it up today June 24, 2012 and no repair has been done and I was still charged a bench fee. This place sucks. I will never go in there again. Good luck if you do.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Not as big as some of the other stores but I like the smaller more personal feel. Attentive staff.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Very friendly staff<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Overall good store, but lacking in some instrument accessories.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I was easily able to drop off my trumpet for repair.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Fantastic friendly service at a reasonable price<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I was looking for an instrument on a budget and they said they didn\u2019t in a rude manner and while walking out, I heard them laughing at me. Absolutely disappointed that people would treat potential customers in such a manner.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
The man working the front desk was not friendly at all. Never made eye contact. Made me feel like I was not welcomed in his store. He probably didn\u2019t know was I am renting an instrument from him. Hopefully I will never have to walk back in his store.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I would give this Gadsden music store no stars if it was allowed. The store representative, Jason Duren, had a bad attitude and was not helpful. He did not want to hand me my receipt and when I said something about it he told me I had an attitude. Jason must have a problem with women or it maybe people of color in general. Don\u2019t waste your time here!! Fine a real music store who welcomes paying customers.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I went in yesterday and asked about a Gretch open back banjo on the back wall that didn\u2019t have a price tag. The reply I got from the bearded gent behind the counter was \u201d I don\u2019t know, probably $300 or something\u201d, and then he walked away like I didn\u2019t exist. The vibe I got from him was \u201cI dont want to help you. I won\u2019t help you\u201d. 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\u2019t want my business and they aren\u2019t interested in having any sort of customer care. I didn\u2019t 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\u2019t want your business and they don\u2019t deserve your business.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Amazing place. The owner set out nine different violins for our daughter to try and we found one that was right for her.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Knowledgeable, talented, and friendly. He took time to explain the process of repairing the 2 guitars we left. Awesome people, busy lil shop. We\u2019re looking forward to our trip bach there to retrieve the guitars. Well worth the 2 hour drive.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I\u2019ve 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 \u201cI\u2019ve purchased the string for $45 at other walk-in shops\u201d and he became sarcastic and argumentative with me, claiming he was \u201cholding my hand\u201d through the process, and said \u201cWell, 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?\u201d A simple, \u201cwell this is my price\u201d would have been fine as a response from him, but I felt disrespected so I hung up and decided I\u2019m 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.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
