Woodbury Music is the best shop around of all of your instrument needs! The shop owner Dave, is both friendly & knowledgeable! I have gotten both common things done (fixing of saxophone keys) as well as unusual things done (fixing of a dulcimer bridge) and everyone has always been great! I have also taken lessons for almost three years now, and my teacher Mike is not only a dedicated teacher, but also a very talented professional. Stop by and check it out!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Great honest shop here. Had a great online interaction with Dave via email. Want to know why I trust them? Because they talked me out of a purchase. Ha! Thanks again!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

A hidden gem UPSTAIRS. Don\u2019t miss it. Dave the owner is great, and talented. Patrick Gill is the PREMIER guitar TECH in the whole northwest CT region. He works miracles at a very fair price. Excellent teachers, Will for piano and keyboards and Mike for guitar and bass. Better check them out. I only trust my guitars to Dave and Patrick. Won\u2019t go anywhere else. Seriously.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I took a pedal building class, that was both fun and educational. Instructor was fantastic, and EXTREMELY patient with me. I learned a ton, and came home with an incredible sounding Tubescreamer that I built myself. Can\u2019t recommend this experience enough.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
I recently made a significant gear upgrade and Martel really helped me out. If you\u2019re into one-of-a-kind guitars or pedals, this is your spot. The relaxed store environment is conducive to trying out guitars, pedals, amps, ukes, whatever you\u2019re into. It\u2019s a unique store in the way it services both the high-end and beginner areas of the market (and in between). Nothing else quite like it in CT or surrounding areas.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
Interesting store with some interesting gear. They don\u2019t seem to carry Fender or Gibson. They had a stomp box manufacturing class going on when I visited.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
As one reviewer already stated. They have a terrible return policy especially with online purchases. Good store as long as you know you\u2019re going to keep the item but who really knows, its musical gear, its hard to tell if your going to dig it or not until you play it with your rig. Returning a pedal (or probably anything) is just not worth it due the return fees. 2 stars because I received it pretty quickly but definitely wasn\u2019t packed that well. Without a doubt this will be my last purchase from this store. There\u2019s plenty of other great stores to choose from that won\u2019t bend you over on return fees. **Edit for response to the owner** Yes you do clearly state your return fees online. \u201cSmall restocking fee\u201d is a bit of an understatement\u2026your restocking fee is 10%. If I pay $250 for a guitar pedal. Right off the bat you\u2019re keeping $25 of my return. I couldn\u2019t imagine purchasing a guitar online through your store.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
Purchased a guitar for 750, now walking out with 637. Unfortunately I was not told about a very unfair and sneaky return exchange policy until I had asked after already completing the purchase. Also could not see clearly a visible sign inside that states anything about a return policy. When I asked where the sign was upon trying to return this guitar he pointed to have a corner and I still did not see the sign. I do believe that a return policy sign should be at the register for full disclosure. The law does state you are entitled to a full refund if you are not told about the refund policy during the time of the transaction, which I was not informed of that. Limited selection and unfortunately subject to a very steep restocking fee or store credit, if you are a serious musician make sure you know this first as you know that buying instruments is quite expensive and it is hard to want to get locked into something that you do not truly love.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I got a great deal on a pre-owned Gibson that was being sold on consignment. Bobby took care of me and the guitar is in FANTASTIC condition, as described. I am very happy with my purchase. Thank you!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
I went to the store to check my new guitar, which I had bought elsewhere, they were very kind and professional, explaining the problem to me and also making some adjustments to my guitar to mitigate the faults that my guitar has from the factory. Bobby and Andras are the kind of people you want to deal with if you have problems with your guitar!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
Awesome little shop. My favorite bass hadn\u2019t had a proper set up in 14 years. I dropped it off with Bobby and he worked his magic on it. It plays better than it did when I first bought it. Definitely my go-to place for instrument repairs now.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Everyone was insanely helpful from who I spoke to on the phone for customer support, to the guy that helped me out when I came to pick up the amp in store.

First, the employees were excellent; friendly and helpful. I was extremely disappointed in the store itself.

Went in to sell my cello, the woman that was working there was amazing and very professional. She had to call the owner to ask about the selling price. He had her look up what my model last sold for on eBay (it\u2019s 2021 my dude) and there were no matches so he had nothing to go off of. I paid $1400 for it, I was looking for around $500. He wanted to give me $50. An absolute joke. I\u2019m not looking for top dollar but I\u2019m also not looking to get completely ripped off.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Terrible customer service. Took my flute to get repaired and instead of just simply fixing what needed to be done to it I was told I shouldn\u2019t have bought an off brand flute. This was all I could afford at the time (as a teenager). I am looking to invest in a new one but honestly it is no ones job to criticize the instrument I have. I waited for the repair to be done and called 3 different times on it. The repair person got sick which is understandable. When I called the last time they said it was finished and I asked why they never called me to let me know they said that I said I was going to come in regardless. Which is true. But still does not explain why no one called me. Overall a bad experience. Was treated very poorly and will not be going there again.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

It\u2019s the little things a local music can offer that matter. In-person testing, advice when you need it, good selection of \u201cemergency\u201d accessories, and as I can tell, well-equipped and skilled instrument repair. They also sell used items, which I found helpful. Gives me another reason to check on stock periodically. But the main difference that I personally enjoyed is the owner (Rick) was not pushy at all, very accommodating to let me test things out, and gave the space I need to enjoy the instruments in his shop. And that is really what a guitar shop should be. A place to get to know the feel of an instrument. My only pondering (not really a complaint), is they did not have any keyboard gear out and ready to try. But I would much rather enter a place that fills a specific niche really well, rather than try to be too many things poorly. For this choice to stick to their expertise, applaud them.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Ordered instrument for my son, was told to pick up the next day, went the following day to pick it up and it wasn\u2019t there.

This is my go to place for everything doubles bass related.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
Customer focused attitude \u2013 came in with two young kids and I think I was more nervous than they were. Jack let me try a bunch of bows while he talked to my kids with respect and genuine interest. Left the shop with a new bow and much appreciation for the Upton family.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
Upton Bass is an excellent outfit. They go the extra yard to satisfy their customers\u2019 needs. Their sales department is personal and extremely helpful in all transactions. I will continue to buy my acoustic bass strings from them in the future.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
I purchased a ply bass that had issues out the door. The geometries where all wrong (e.g., the neck was too thin and was not pitched to the back of the bass) and it had a buzz coming from the fingerboard and bridge setup. They were unable to resolve the buzzing sound and I took it it to a local luthier to have the problem resolved. I ended up donating the bass our school district and purchasing a Shen.
\nAlso do not purchase bows from Upton. I purchased a $2000+ bow made by J.R. Silva, Brazil, which developed a splinter just above the frog within 6 months and Upton would not warrant the bow. I now have a $2000+ paperweight.<\/p>\n

Update, 10\/28\/2023:
\n\u2026 as to your reply, yes, I initially thought this was a great bass until I started using it for rehearsals and the buzzing appeared. I thought it was something I was doing or even due to the new bow. I drove 4 hours one way to your location to have your staff address the buzzing issue and they shaved a high spot on the fingerboard near first position and the buzzing did not appear while I was there. When I returned home and started using the bass again for rehearsals the buzzing reappeared. I wasn\u2019t about to drive an other 8 hours to give your staff a second chance at addressing this. Instead, I took it to a local luthier who fixed the buzzing through a combination of reshaping both the fingerboard and bridge (the bridge was set up for jazz, even though I had told your staff that I play mostly orchestral music). While working on my bass, the luthier pointed out the other issues that I mentioned in my review. I am not a luthier, so I would not have necessarily recognized these issues except that through pro-longed use I might have developed muscular issues.<\/p>\n

It also wasn\u2019t until your staff responded last week that they could not help me with the issues with my bow that I decided to post this. I don\u2019t like to post negative comments, but I wanted to warn other potential customers of my experience. Your staff could not even help with how I might get in touch with Mr. Silva. If you sell someone\u2019s product, I would think you would have some form of contact information. I spent a lot of money on this bow ($2000+) and NO I DID NOT CAUSE THIS SPLINTER TO APPEAR. I do not appreciate you implying so by your comment. Had your staff handled things differently, I would not have posted this review.<\/p>\n

You, as an owner, could have handled this differently as well. You *could* have contacted me by phone about this, instead of responding to my review in the manner that you did, and I might have considered removing this review. You could have even contacted me directly before I posted this review, as several days had lapsed between my speaking with your staff and my posting this review. At this point, based on the content of your reply, I will not remove this review.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The sales team made it possible for me to afford a piano for my son<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
I signed up for a piano lesson trial online. Their site is very confusing and it\u2019s not clear if the lesson is in-person and online. I called them, left a message but they never called me back. In the day\/time of the lesson, I called them 3 times because I was having problems to contact the teacher. The guy who works there, Jim, clearly doesn\u2019t have any customer service skills. He was rude and unpleasant. He didn\u2019t make any effort to help me, told me a was confused and nobody else had problems. I just canceled the future lessons there. It\u2019s easier just hire a private piano teacher. Hopefully I will never have to deal with this guy again.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I paid $80 for a setup on a guitar and got it back with the strings a mile off of the neck and the floyd rose studs so high out of the body I could park a car under it. The bridge pickup was raised until it was practically touching the strings and the neck pickup was lowered to below the pickup ring. The tech then told me that 10-52 strings don\u2019t exist. They\u2019re light top heavy bottom and aren\u2019t even uncommon strings. Every time I go there they give bad advice and clearly don\u2019t know what they\u2019re talking about. My friend tried to buy a tubescreamer (basic overdrive) and they tried to sell him a phaser instead (completely different thing).<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I would give Middlesex Music Academy a 0 if I was able to. I called to inquire about a $150 charge when I haven\u2018t been confirmed by John the guitar teacher. I made a request to Matt that Tuesday was my preference but John was booked so he scheduled Thursday at 6pm. I received a text and email from John yesterday that he had a conflict for Thursday and offered Friday. I responded via text\/email that would not work and inquired if this was temporary or permanent to which I did not receive a response. I let John know this may not be a good fit then. I called today to have the charge refunded and Jim proceeded to call me names, saying I was yelling & screaming over the phone and I was being rude. No need to go into the dramatics but Jim needs a lesson in manners, telling the truth and understanding that being a manager does not give him the authority to behave poorly. Never once did I raise my voice but did correct Jim several times throughout the conversation all because i asked for a refund. Extremely unprofessional and a bad look for Middlesex Music all around. I will be taking my business elsewhere. Inexcusable & theater worthy performance by Jim today folks!!!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I purchased my son\u2019s first guitar \u2013 a Taylor two years ago here. I took it in to get tuned up and new strings after covid isolation playing. The technician took me right away, advised me on strings and restrung and then tuned it, and played it before and after so I could hear the difference and appreciate how beautiful it could sound when played by a professional. I absolutely appreciate the outstanding customer service and the quality of support given in this store. At this store by this staff, a person just getting simple guitar maintenance is treated as well as getting a new sale. That is customer support!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I was considering buying a guitar, bass and an interface. I was completely ignored by all employees while I was one of three customers in the store(a pair of young men who were clearly there to buy were also ignored). Not even a greeting or goodbye. Find a mom and pop, or even a pawn shop. Don\u2019t support these miserable people. They have a terrible selection, high prices, they profile and are miserable people to be near. I could have bought but wanted nothing to do with them after finally procuring the \u2018attention\u2019 of someone for a fleeting moment. I won\u2019t be back.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Edit: This review was written over ten years ago but a small edit and it has now posted as recent. Not sure why but that\u2019s not why I\u2019m writing this edit here. This review being posted prompted a manager from Sam Ash to contact my father (who has the same name as me) to try and address whatever issue prompted the negative review. My father called me to let me know and told me the manager would like me to call him. Well\u2026 I\u2019ve called around 6 times now and can\u2019t get through, it simply hangs up on me after pressing #2 for a manager. I decided to give the 1-800# a call to see if they could connect me to the New Haven store manager because it kept hanging up on me. Guess what? Twice I called the 1-800#, twice they hung up. At this point it\u2019s comical. I don\u2019t even really remember what my issue was when I wrote this review but things must not be any better down there at Sam Ash since I can\u2019t even contact anyone. Keep up the great work guys.<\/p>\n

Original Review:
\n\u201cYou want a real review then look no further. When you walk into Sam Ash it is like walking into a garage sale. Used products trying to be pawned off with brand new retail prices. Almost everything I purchased from Sam Ash had to be returned or replaced. Customer Service hah! Forget about it. Some preemie-punk band wannabees who know only what their 1978 computer programmed screen tells them on how low they can go without making a commision. If you are a novice they will clean your wallet without even blinking! Do not buy into their trade-in program HUGE let down. They will not take anything!! You are better off going to the local pawn shop with your gear. I brought in a workstation worth triple what I was trying to trade for and they looked as confused as George Bush at a press conference and still would not trade. Do not waste your time with this Flea Market! Do yourself a favor and make the extra trip to Guitar Center or if you need orchestra instruments see your local music shop you will be 100% better off. I am a 25+years musician and HAVE NOT and DO NOT work at any music store so what you read is the truth do with it what you want.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

So thankful to Greenwich Music! I went in to \u201crent\u201d a drum set for our musical at Riverside School last weekend. On a limited budget I went in hoping for a \u201cdeal\u201d.

We were kindly helped in the store, but we were buying a guitar for our son and we don\u2019t live in the US. We were having problems with internet so we couldn\u2019t research correctly at the moment, but they assured that the amp could be used in 220 current. We arrived home and we connected the amp and it didn\u2019t work. So the amp was burned. Apart from that the price was a bit higher than the same thing in other stores, it\u2019s not nice to pay 50 dollars more, but that is just business and anyone can charge what they want. It was our fault that we didn\u2019t do a good research before buying. But the very kind person that assured us that it would work because he used to be an electrician, and it only needed a basic adapter, was totally wrong and now we are home and we lost an amp, so we paid extra for the set and it didn\u2019t work. You were very kind indeed, but please if you are not sure about something, don\u2019t sell it. Because we lost money and we can\u2019t go back because we don\u2019t live there.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Rudest customer service I have ever encountered. The man I spoke to on the phone yelled and hung up on me. When my daughter went in person to drop off the instrument for repair at the agreed upon time, he remained upset and kicked my daughter out of the store. Strongly encourage anyone looking to have their instruments fixed to look elsewhere. Disappointing experience to say the least.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Their hours aren\u2019t very convenient and I was having a guitar strung and I dropped it off and I didn\u2019t get a call before the store closed and then they were closed the next day Sunday so I didn\u2019t get my guitar until Monday and that was extremely inconvenient. They also have a very small selection of basses.Update, they aren\u2019t even open a couple hours on the 4th of July so I won\u2019t get my guitar till Tuesday I am very upset with this store.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Terrible customer service. Called and said I would be by in 10 minutes for an emergency repair. Guy was nice on the phone. When I arrived 5 minutes early they had closed up and locked. Super helpful\u2026<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Just want to give a quick shout out to everyone at AAA Band Rentals. Last year they had a quick turn around time on ordering a bass trombone for our son and Michael was so helpful in helping him decide what instrument he needed. Now our son is off at college, joined the band and needed his instrument right away. The instrument was evaluated, cleaned, lubricated and ready to go the same day! Entire case cleaned too! We already brought it to our son and he is ready for practice this week. Did I mention AAA has bell covers for all instruments too? Thank you Michael Jr. and Michael Sr., Josh and Rick for all your help and always such a pleasure to work with and talk all things music related. Highly recommend. Thanks again!

Fast and efficient. Our instrument had a minor repair performed overnight. Only 4 stars though because yesterday I was given a $20 rough estimate for the work to be done \u201cit certainly won\u2019t be more that $20\u201d and today the bill ended up being $47 \u201cmaterial has gone up\u201d\u2026it certainly has \u2026overnight!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Awful, awful company. Sent me threatening letters in the mail demanding $30 long after the trumpet was returned to Ridgefield Music. The letter actually threatened to have me arrested if I didn\u2019t pay their fee.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I like this place because Fred Pedemonti does NOT work there. Fred is scum.
\nHowever everyone here is polite and talented.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Customer Service. Period. Chris, Alex & staff are dedicated and attentive. Prefer this place to others because of personal feel\/vibe. They are knowledgeable and not forceful. Great stuff here.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I have condensed my original rant down to the following- we really like our children\u2019s teachers- but the front desk needs saving<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

Limited retail space, but the staff is helpful and knowledgeable. Music lessons are offered on site.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The worst company in the world!!!! If I can give anyone advice it would be to stay away from this place. Their thief\u2019s and I will never do business with them again.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Being a Deaf mother of hearing 9 years old child that has no knowledge in music, I asked if this is drumsticks is good for him. This man just gave me a cold look and said I don\u2019t know it\u2019s fine. He was rude. Definitely not a Deaf friendly store for those Deaf parents with hearing child who wants to join the band.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Very poor service. I had gone few days ago to order a rental violin size 1\/16 according to my son teacher recommendations, and a violin for my wife. This week I received a call letting me know that the violins were ready for pick up.
\nFirst thing I was told when I arrived was that the violin 1\/16 was not there, after I told the associate I have received a phone call, he went to check again and sure enough he found it.
\nHe mentioned that the violin ha a tag outside saying it was 1\/32, but that it was a size 1\/16 because it has been measured.
\nHe proceeded to fill up a rental contact that I signed, however I suspected the violin was indeed a 1\/32, I then open the violin box and inside the violin there was a mark for 1\/32 size.
\nI mentioned to the associate that I thought the violin was a 1\/32 not a 1\/16. He was visible frustrated and said that his manager had I don\u2019t remember what degrees in music and that he had measured the violin ant it was a 1\/32, he then told me that I could check online the dimensions for a 1\/16 violin, which I did, and sure enough the violin was a 1\/32 according to the measurements they have online. I told the associate that I preferred to wait, he replied that the contract was already done, I said that I did not care, because I wanted the right size violin. All along this discussion the associate attitude was extremely rude.
\nI would not recommend this store, however unfortunately there aren\u2019t too many options available.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
