I recently ordered a bass clarinet from Easy Music Center in Honolulu. After a few days without a…read moreshipping update, I emailed them on Monday morning to check on my order. Jake replied almost immediately and explained that a few employees had been sick, which caused a delay in processing. Shortly after, Hadji emailed me to let me know the instrument had been inspected and that they would expedite my order. Within a few hours, I received the shipping confirmation and tracking number for FedEx next day delivery which I really appreciated. Their customer service was excellent, and I really appreciated the quick responses and honest communication. My only suggestion is to send customers a quick email if an order is delayed. A simple update would go a long way and save customers from wondering about their order. So far, I'm very happy with the experience. I'll update my review once the bass clarinet arrives.

I called a local music store near my parent's house Goodguy's Music and Sound and they referred me to Ukulele Hale. I could not be happier to have found this place. Our teacher (and founder) Jody Kamisato is an amazing talented teacher. He always has a big smile on his face and his enthusiasm for the Ukulele can't be missed. This is our second Summer taking lessons with him so we had to share. If you are looking for a Ukulele teacher, look no further. His studio is very nice and air-conditioned well. Parking is easy to find and the lot has ample parking. For more information their website is ukulelehale.wordpress.com Located in the heart of Kaimuki, there are lots of businesses and restaurants nearby if you want to explore this recently gentrified town in Honolulu. Thanks Jody!

I'm so glad I found her! She was able to fit my son in right away with a weekly lesson on the weekend, and he picked up right where he'd left off with his former teacher in California. Akiko has a patient, quiet manner. She is very perceptive and guides her students with a keen sense. She generously put together a recital for all her students at a beautiful old church downtown, and my son rose to the challenge of learning a new song, and performing for the first time. We will be moving again this summer, and will be sad to say goodbye!

Once his interest was more into cello but Mariko completely understood how teenagers go and arranged the schedule so that he could take both her violin and other teacher's cello lessons. Now he wants to focus on violin so quit cello but I think he appreciates the opportunity that he learned cello in order to play violin better. Too bad he doesn't play as much as I want him...but Mariko always helps me and gives him motivation! She's always flexible also understanding how busy working mommy's life can be. She's a native Japanese speaker but also perfect English bilingual so I would highly recommend to all Japanese and English speaker if you would like to broaden your music world! She might speak more language...lol Cause she's so talented :)

If you're looking for a Kailua music store, look no further than Coconut Grove Music!…read more Located right across the street from Bob's Sports Bar, above Lanikai Brewing Company, Coconut Grove Music is the go-to place for your stringed instrument needs. Whether you need a tuner, new strings, or guitar picks or are looking for a new or used instrument and don't want to travel into town, this is the place to stop by. Street parking is available, or you can park in any of their free, assigned stalls in the small parking lot next to the building. The entrance to the parking lot is a little narrow and can be easily missed, but there is a mini food truck close to the entrance, which might help you find out how to get in. To get upstairs, take the stairs facing the street to the second floor and walk straight towards the end through the brown door. Their old location used to be through the brown door on the bottom floor that took you upstairs, but they are now in the last brown door on the second floor. I will say that some of their items are priced a little more than a big box store like Guitar Center. Then again, if you think about it, if you're already in Kailua, you probably wouldn't want to drive to Pearl Highland or even to town at Easy Music Center to pick up some new strings. Shout out to them for having the Elixir Phosphor Bronze 11|52 acoustic guitar strings and a couple of the Herco guitar picks!
