This is the best music store. Not only for the variety of great quality instruments that they…read moreoffer but also because of the level of knowledge and service provided. My girls take guitar lessons here and I am amazed at how quickly they have learned and begun to continually play new music. They take it to the next level at this store by teaching the kids not only music, but also the importance of making good grades at school (this is a stipulation for continuing lessons), the importance of serving our community, and just everyday great values that will help them grow into great human beings:). Music is their way of life at this business, so if u want a place to go where u can get great quality instruments and service, this place is the best choice.

I came to Valdosta on a social visit with my girlfriend. A couple of days after we got in, I had a…read moreday to waste, so I drove around town looking for guitar shops and happened upon Rutland's Music. This place doesn't specialize in guitars (they have drums, pianos, basses, etc.) but they have a decently sized selection of guitars. Pat Rutland, the owner, talked with me for almost two hours about guitars. The man knows his stuff. He came off a bit pretentious at first. However, later in out conversation it became apparent to me that he is just trying to spread his knowledge on the subject. Mr. Rutland knows a great deal about the technical aspects of guitar building and was eager to answer any questions I had about guitars. Friendly service, but the prices were slightly higher than I was used to. This is to be expected from a nonchain, though, so I'm happy with my experience.

We decided to buy a better trumpet from them after Hunter spent a good amount of time with us, letting us try out different models and find the one that worked best for our son. Ultimately, we're very happy with how the experience was handled as well as the new horn!

I already paid what they had listed online plus shipping and they were dismissive and rude. I've checked my accounts and they have made no attempt to initiate a refund yet, but they were very quick to cancel the order. I dug around online apparently they do this to multiple people so it's not a one time thing I would stay away from at the very least buying anything online from them.

Went to the store on a Friday and selected and bought a guitar for a gift. Over the weekend the…read moreperson I was going to give it to, declined it. I brought it back in on Monday. The owner uncovered a concealed sign that said "no refunds" and proceeded to explain why he wasn't going to give me a refund. I was shocked by his dishonesty. he told me I could sell it on line. it would have been better customer service if he had provided me a refund- especially since his sign was not visible to the customer. now I have to take a loss on the perfect guitar and he has lost a customer. I will share this experience with my friends, and they will share it with their friends. I doubt if he has learned a thing.

I stumbled into this small music shop while searching all over town for some bass strings with my…read moreboyfriend. Unable to find what he wanted at Guitar Center, he asked me to look on Yelp to find some nearby music stores. Always a fan of supporting local businesses over big corporations, we were delighted to find this locally owned corner shop next to Canopy Road Cafe. The owner was charming and kind, and helped Niko find exactly what he needed for his bass. At a price that rivaled the big-shot music shop in the mall, we were happy to give our money to this knowledgeable establishment. The back wall was lined with beautiful instruments, and an impressive amount of instrument accessories and equipment were housed within this seemingly small shop. I'd gladly return to Gordon's the next time we're in need of strings or music supplies!
