Half of the items you buy is either an open box store display, or a used broken item. They will still charge you for the new item price, which I always contest them whenever I receive a used or open boxed store display item. I always return until they get it right. Just a warning if you shop their stores or website.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Didn\u2019t have what I needed. Not very informed on there other locations. Not so customer friendly.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I came in here because I was interested in learning to play an instrument. Everyone here was knowledgeable and helpful and friendly and were able to get me started pretty easily. They have some nice instruments for rent and offer lessons. I\u2019ve been to a few music stores and this is probably the best one I\u2019ve been to for what I needed.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
Fast and efficient. They are very knowledgable and easy to communicate with. I enjoyed my repair experience and will come back again.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

the employees who work here have a great attitude and will help you with whatever you need the prices aren\u2019t to high and they have good quality for their products. this is the only place i go to, to get any thing i need for my guitar such as picks and straps. I highly recommend shopping here!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
Update: We had a recent issue with being given much higher pricing on an instrument we rented than initially quoted. However, the manager got involved and, while the price we paid wasn\u2019t what we were initially told when we first rented it, the final price that we ended up paying for the instrument was fair. It\u2019s a good store. There just needs to be more consistency among the staff so that customers feel that they can trust what they are told.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
Things have changed at the music repair shop within the last year. It\u2019s all about money and not customer service and satisfaction. On top of that I had a conn 6m alto saxophone that I took to them over two years trying to get fixed correctly and after shelling out over $500 I repair costs I finally took it somewhere else who guaranteed to get it fixed right and said they never fixed the problem.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

THE BEST!!! During these covid times, many items are hard to get, but Samantha and the whole staff are GREAT at finding stuff through their connections and getting it within days! Truly amazing. AND when i made a special ordered, and it was not what i expected, they took it right back with NO problems! This happened TWICE!! I am a professional musician and teacher, and I need high quality gear and customer service, and like I said, they truly are the best music store! THANK YOU SO MUCH!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
Probably the best customer service that I\u2019ve gotten in a music store. The only reason why I\u2019m giving a 3 stars is because they outsource there guitar repairs to someone who has absolutely no concept of quolity assurance or even knowledge of how to do a standard set-up.
\nIN SHORT go to the store for lessons and to buy stuff while feeling really welcomed, BUT for the sake that is all holy with electric guitar repairs; DO NOT TAKE YOU\u2019RE GUITAR THERE FOR REPAIRS.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
They wont give back my deposit of $35 for fixing my guitar but they never touched it. My guitar just sat there for 4 days. They kept telling me it would be ready in a day. Then a week. Then a week till he could get to it. It just took it back. I will figure out the $35 later. The really tried to hold my guitar hostage and were rude as rude gets<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

just a reminder to anyone in the inland empire\u2026.stay away from music mikes\u2026the manager Gerald is an extremely rude-arrogant-shady person. \u2026.for those of you that have known me-you know i am an honest guy\u2026..one of my old students told me he got into a physical fight with a customer\u2026and lost ofcourse(his mom was on the jury for the trial)..ive already informed past and present students about this guy and not to my surprise most of them already didnt like the guy at all..i was also fronted off rudely by this jerk 2 times in 2 weeks..if i were to stay one more day i worried i would be putting him in the hospital for how i was spoken too..the store also has a 500 dollar pa system of mine and they are claiming they dont have it now\u2026yet,one of the employees remembers very clearly\u2026maybe a thief in the house too??? unfortunately,until the owner intervines,music mikes in riverside is going to continue to go downhill\u2026 .<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

If your looking for pro gear for the tour this store may not have it. The keyboard selections are few but not for the studio or stage. Nord keyboards are not in stock or expansion units for Pro Tools are not readily available.

I have been a longtime customer and I have seen the customer service dwindle and their product knowledge is now practically nonexistent.

Customer service is horrible. They won\u2019t answer the phone and none of the products actually come from LA outback, they are drop shipped from a different company. I had to get ahold of world percussion USA to get a tracking number. Also I just found the same exact didgeridoo on amazon for $35 compared to their price of $57. The products themselves are really good quality though. But I\u2019m not giving LA outback credit for the quality because they don\u2019t make them.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\nWith care that exceeds my own, he was able to solve problems I had no idea existed. Through his process
\nHe meticulously documented and photographed his work, witch he shared with me every step.<\/p>\n

After his thorough work.

He couldn\u2019t help me and when I tried to get some more information about when Pete would return he was non-helpful and then he told me that he had \u201ca room full of customers.\u201d Or in other words, this phone conversation is over. Am I not a customer? Just another employee filling a seat over there. I gave 3 stars for my rating only because Pete is awesome, but my experience with his fill-in was in complete contrast to working with Pete.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

In a era when local music shops are hard to find this one is a gem. Great service, great staff, fair prices. Their guitar techs are top notch and extremely reasonable\u2026<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
I\u2019m so glad they got rid of \u201cDr. Evil.\u201d It was the best decision they\u2019ve ever done in my 20 years of coming here. Buying guitar strings from him was like pulling teeth. I heard he was eventually assaulted, which is unfortunate and kind of reflects on the managers for not getting rid of him sooner.
\nThe bearded gentleman that replaced him is worth his weight in Gold.
\nGive that man a RAISE. He deserves it.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I love this shop, great quality gear, instruments, accessories and a diverse selection of vinyl. I have a local place to buy drum sticks, etc. \\,,\/<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Great music store in Hemet right in the downtown area. Good selection of guitars & bass guitars. I just wish they had a larger drum section with selection of snaredrums & cymbals.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
Record selection is hit or miss but ever growing and well priced<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

This is a very nice local music store, but it is also a very arrogant and unfriendly place if you do not fit their desired profile. I wrote the owner before posting an adverse review, no response. Too bad, but they are the best excuse for not supporting local business.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Terrible place. My son took 2 of his beloved guitars for consignment sale. Every time he called to check on status, it was a different excuse as to why they had no time to answer his questions, or just said they were too busy and would have to call him back. They have NEVER called back. My son went last weekend to pick up his guitars, only to be told that they were SOLD!!! To who?? My son never received a penny!!! Ripoff!!! He was told the manager would call him right away. He\u2019s called every single day to get restitution, no manager, no contact whatsoever!!! They sold his guitars and kept the money!!! Scam artists!!! DON\u2019T DO BUSINESS WITH THEM!! DON\u2019T TRUST THEM WITH YOUR GUITARS!!!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Rocky set my new guitar up and it\u2019s glorious. Totally recommend.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Rocky is rare find \u2013 a skilled artisan who really knows his craft. Rocky attended to my husband\u2019s new Martin D42 project as though he was was his personal guitar pro while on tour. Quick turnaround and really fair pricing for this kind of expertise.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
Rocky is a PRO he\u2019s been my guitar doctor for many years. I don\u2019t trust my guitars to anyone else.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

I wouldn\u2019t let this guy work on a cement block. There is a reason his name is rock..that\u2019s what he uses to work on your guitars.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
