My nephew who travel from Tucson loves his guitar center and I wanted to show off Albuquerques…read moreguitar center! Big mistake ! This place was hard to get customer service and staff work attire was not worn to show they are staff. The public restroom were dirty and no working soap dispensers and the hallway to the restroom had boxes on left side along the wall. At first I thought we are in the inventory room but we followed the sign for restrooms. My nephew was looking for a pedal but they were slim selection but the staff offered to order product but we declined. Looking at their products was looking very disorganized and sloppy in the display. Even the staff felt bad how the displayed looked and muttered the place was in bad shape.

Maybe I found a new place that's just nice to have a reason to visit?…read more If the coowner could have been any more of a resource while keeping both the cutesy of masking until I stated I was fully vaccinated and making me feel at ease. Here I didn't feel self conscious as a person with some differently labeled/ differently abled adaptations ,both understanding and respect for differences in approach were so present, I could simply enjoy conversation and learn quite a bit about my focus there , upright base, cello and violin. I'm looking forward to returning to complete a plan of approach to preserving instruments' longevity, and full service. My whole day brightened with this little 'errand,' made a visit in the first few moments. Edit to add: challenging tasks are so much more accessible with people like you and places like this , thank you!

The staff, however, was very friendly and the gentleman I spoke to was curious as to what I needed and if he could start carrying that kind of stuff for me. Obviously this blew me away! I have never been asked what's good to what products I like and if I had any suggestions on what to carry. The level of personal service and willingness to work with me in order to get what I want here in Santa Fe was excellent! I will definitely be shopping here again. Not only that, I just can't help telling everyone I know about this great experience!

Jay is a great instructor. I'm an older student and not necessarily the most gifted but I can tell…read morethat I'm improving with his help. I've had other music teachers and they can make you feel like a benighted orphan struggling for acceptance at the hands of an all-knowing master. How many times do you want to hear 'NO!'? Jay's not like that. Jay has the chops and he lets you learn in your own best way. I'm not super interested in learning lots of classic songs but I really dig learning about theory and song structures. He always fits the lesson to my interests in a way that is still challenging. I think music instruction is a really underappreciated skill and Jay deserves recognition for the way he helps us learners down the road. On a practical level I'll finish by saying that it's always a straightforward affair with regards to payment and scheduling. He's very professional in that regard as well.
