I needed to have a pickup installed on my Martin Backpacker. L&M couldn't do it, but Mhyre's could, and they even had the right kind of pickup in stock. Also, they have beautiful used instruments at great prices. This is my favourite music shop. My only complaint is that it's not closer to my house.

Do you like playing guitars, violins, or any instrument dealing with strings? I'm gonna be honest,…read moreI don't play music instruments myself. I'm just here to visit with a friend. Staff is friendly and easily helped us find the right strings for my friend's convenience. This place is like the gold mine for many stringed instruments. They carry lesson books, and possibly repairs or tuning if needed. Teaching you may need to call and ask. There is plenty of supplies and tools for whatever purpose you may need for guitars and such. What intrigued me most was the unique designs of guitars they carry. See photos. Parking is found at the side of the building, small parking lot. I will recommend this place to friends and if your a musician string player looking for replacements or tune ups this place is a good choice.

Randy calmed me down on the phone, we brought her in... what an awesome experience. Been in a lot of shops but I walked out a lifelong customer, the repair left me staggering, such an amazing job, I still can't believe it. I couldn't be happier. The service, honesty, friendliness. All top shelf! Then they did a quick setup/ restrung my Dads old Stella - picked awesome strings for her, quick turnaround. This is the place.

I've taken numerous guitars there and have always been extremely happy with their work. They could work o the front window display as it looks a bit messy and could dissuade you. Don't let that be the judge because inside is very organized and clean. The work they've done on my instruments has been done very quickly all and all. This is my go to shop even though I'm not in the area. 5 star rating foresure. Cheers guys and keep up the good work. Good selection in instruments to boot.

I had a problem: the nut on my 12-string guitar broke as I was changing it. A music store I…read morenormally frequent could not guarantee me a repair in a timely fashion, so I headed over to Lillo's to see what they could do. I was very impressed with the friendly service and the speed of it as well. The store had the part I needed, and I had my guitar back within a week. On another day, I was looking for a harmonica in a specific key, and again, the music store I went to first was out of them. Back to Lillo's I went. One of the store's owners waited on me, and was a totally cool and cheerful guy. The price of the harmonica was in line with the first place I went to, and he even made conversation with me about why I needed it (it was for a specific song). Lillo's sells and repairs musical instruments, especially guitars, and also sells a wide variety of sheet music. Lillo's is also a place for musical instruction. I have a friend taking vocal lessons here and she is enjoying the experience. Lillo's has also been around for decades in a location where there are at least two or three other music stores nearby. I have a couple of guitars that may need servicing in the near future. Guess where I am going to take them?

Many decades ago my boyfriend had to hock his bass to pay a fine. He was able to do so at Lillos…read moreand then later rebought his bass back. Two decades later my xboyfriend and our son, Robin Nash, without knowing our history was hired by Vic Lillo. My son was also an aspiring musician and often had priority gigs and was unavailable to work for the store. Vic and Doreen always gave him consideration and always offered him a workplace ... I often think they did it more for him than themselves. He met his future wife Shawna there teaching harmonica lessons, drums and sold and repaired all the various instruments. My son Robin Nash was always welcome to come back when he needed extra income, always welcome to return as an employee or rather an extended Lillo's family member. If you google Robin Nash you'll see him as Santa playing at a LIllos event... his students and their parents in attendance. Because of families like the Lillos children grow up more talented, cared about and the old fashioned values of being a good guy "for sure for sure" will rub off. It definitely did on my late son. I will always be greatful to the Lillo family for cherishing him and giving a young hopeful musician a break.

I've been in the market for a good but well priced acoustic guitar for awhile now. This place has a…read moregreat selection of quality Canadian made guitars at really great prices, as well as the usual Yamaha, Ibanez, etc. The owner (Al) was on the phone when I came in, but he acknowledged me and let me know he would be right with me. As soon as he was done, he came and showed me some guitars, let me try them out, gave me some advice, and then gave me some space to think about it. He was the perfect amount of helpful without pressuring me. They also have electric guitars, keyboards, and all sorts of recording equipment. I have had such mediocre experiences with the chain music stores lately, I'm glad this local business is still around. I did some quick googling, and the prices are very competitive with the bigger stores too. All in all, a very positive and informative visit. I think I've found the guitar I want! I highly recommend checking them out.

If you're looking for a new guitar or bass... check out the West End Rock Shop!…read more Love supporting our local business owners! The owners, Ang & Al, also own Mr. Entertainment in West Ed and Londonderry Mall! The mall locations are great but their Rock Shop is phenomenal!

So glad they opened this location!

Went there because they are a PRS dealer with loads of stock…read more Nice front end guy, can't remember his name. Well I ended up buying a John Mayer Silver Sky with case and strap. Got a great deal I thought and I love the guitar. They did a setup with new strings while I paid. The dude said his "tech" was a pro setup guy and I just believed him. Anyway 20min later it was done. Setup and with new strings. Took it home and it's a wonderful guitar. I didn't put the trem bar on for about 2 weeks. Sooooo......when I did put the trem bar on, it would not budge. I took off the back plate and the trem had 4 springs on it, and the trem was slammed up against the front of the pocket. Then I looked at the bridge plate and it was slammed solid on the top of the paint. So it was not floating at all. You couldn't even move the trem without damaging something. This is NOT how a pro tech sets up a new PRS unless I am missing something? Well I was NOT impressed at all. Sent an email to them explaining this............zero response. So I just went ahead and did my own setup, intonation etc. It's a great guitar....just don't buy it there unless you are doing your own setups or taking it elsewhere for that. Cheers

Gordon Price Music has the best selection of music and music teaching materials in the city. They…read moreprovide music of all sorts from classical, pop, rock, traditional and whatever you can imagine - for most main stream instruments. If there is something special you need they usually can order it in. Being a piano teacher I appreciate the teacher discount they provide. They also reimburse your parking if you spend more than $20 in the store. Gordon Price Music also provides workshops from notable presenters on music book lines, music theory and other topics of interest. If you're a member or a teacher and are on their mailing list you'll be made aware of when these take place. Not only does Gordon Price sell music, but also great teaching aids and musical novelty items, which is great for anyone musical in your life. Their staff is very helpful and knowledgeable about music - go figure - and are always there to lend a hand. I've called ahead and asked for books to be held for me which they've done without hesitation. That alone makes me return on a regular basis for my teaching materials.

After years of neglect followed by 15 years in storage we were not even able to remove the mouthpiece let alone depress the valves. They estimated a week and a certain price. One week later it plays like a dream, looks better than ever and was $15 under the estimate.
