Thanks so much guys!

As my Guitar Center gently weeps, I find myself writing a negative review for this place…read more Located in Rochester, despite the prices and issues, at least this location has never screwed me over to the extremely aggressive and unfriendly degree that the one in Amherst NY did. I'll never forget the way they treated me up there. There are some creepy similarities here, and I worry that if I bought the same volume of equipment I'd end up with the same awful experience. Some of the associates (at most locations) would say anything to sell you this stuff and then once you get it, everything changes. Oh we never said that. Oh you misunderstood. Oh no it's not meant to do that. Oh we're not responsible for that breaking. Some shady and really bad people. On the other hand the people down here are better than the Buffalo staff, not saying much though. My experiences here have been more positive, but I'd still rather go to a local music shop.

Well, stopped into the Rochester store today to get a gig bag for the Ibanez bass I just got from…read moreGuitar Center online. Although the reps were not rude, they certainly were not attentive. I showed them the bass. One guy needed to show it to the mgr. He came back and said they didn't have anything that would fit. Then he thought we could look and I remarked that was a good idea. They only had three and none would fit. I said Ibanez had a part number of one that went with the instrument on their website. We returned to the front counter and I thought he was maybe going to look it up. I also started some research on my phone. Next thing I knew he was checking customers out. I guess I was done. No acknowlegement, no "Sorry, we can't find anything", nothing. So I left. Won't be returning to this location. And they wonder why folks shop Amazon!

I remember String House decades ago when I used to play so I knew they were reputable. They also carried the book and CD that we needed to purchase. Look for the white house with the bright red door on Monroe Ave. Parking is in the back. It was a short wait while they finished with other customers. The rental process was easy and quick. My daughter was already measured, but the associate did a quick double check and tuned the violin. It came with the basics - violin, bow, case, rosin, and a nametag. The price includes insurance and repairs during the rental period, which is a school year or 12 months. We didn't have to buy a shoulder rest because sponges usually work fine for the little ones, but it fit her well so we bought one, in her favorite color pink. Seamless rental process and so beautiful to see the instruments displayed all along the ceiling. It was nostalgic!

The String House has provided me with exceptional sales and service since I purchased my first…read moreviolin there 19 years ago. Steve and Shelley, in particular, have been outstanding. Stores like this are truly rare. Over the years, I've purchased several violins, a viola, and rented cellos from The String House--all of high quality. Their bows are equally impressive, in both variety and craftsmanship. Great cases too! Steve and Shelley bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise, and have guided me to some truly outstanding instruments. They are my go-to for shopping, maintenance, and repairs--whether it's sheet music, new strings, bow rehairing, or other luthier services. I have also taken advantage of their trade-in program, which by itself makes The String House the place to shop. In all areas, they always provide complete transparency about costs/pricing and quality. Steve and Shelley feel like family. The String House is a gem. Will be a customer for life.
