As soon as I walked into the store, a staff member greeted me and offered help--even though he…read morelooked busy handling some paperwork. He asked what I needed, and I explained that my acoustic guitar had a broken peg tuner. I already had the replacement part with me, so I handed it over. Instead of jumping straight into recommendations or upselling, he immediately tried to fix it on the spot. Once he confirmed it was repairable, he quickly cut the string, replaced the tuner, and got everything back in place. The whole process took less than 10 minutes! I live in Carson, so driving out to Lakewood and getting it fixed the same day was such a relief. This guitar isn't for professional use--it's for my daughter who's just starting to learn--so having it ready right away saved me a lot of time and hassle. He even tuned it by ear in seconds, which was really impressive. Overall, a smooth and pleasant experience. I really appreciated the quick, no-nonsense service and would definitely come back again for future repairs!

I don't want to knock this place completely, but they have certain things going on that annoy me…read more I play with triggers, but the heads on the kick drums are so old and loose and poorly maintained, that you cannot even get enough of a response on them for the trigger to pick it up. And this is in the many rooms we've tried. On the plus, they have tons of rooms and generally decent parking, although prepare to have to park far away in the parking lot. On the big minuses, is their refusal to book any room starting on an odd number hour. So, for example, you cannot book a room from 1-3 pm. They insist you start at noon, when they open or at 2pm, so they don't have to eat the 1 hour from 12-1pm. I've never faced this at any other rehearsal studio in Los Angeles. They will book you from 12-3, however, and then just eat the hour from 3-4pm. Huh?! Like, dude, your logic makes zero sense. I'd rather go to Grooveworks in Long Beach or Summit in Pasadena. Many other good spots without such arbitrary rules. Luckily won't have to go back. Trying to talk logic to the owner is like beating your head against a wall.

I've been looking for a place to get my fingerboard taped, and was so relieved when I called and they said that they could help me out!

I was really blown away by this, and insisted on at least buying something. I came home with a ready-to-play violin and a beautiful new rosin! Thank you, Forte Strings, for such a great experience. Really looking forward to my next visit!

I spoke with him last week and made a lesson for today at 11:30am. I got there 10 mins early and he was not there and the business was closed. I sent Xaiver a text at 11:26 am and received no response. Then I called him at 11:30 am and left him a message. I never got a phone call back, even though his VM says that he promises to return calls. I waited some more and finally left. I never received a call back. What a waste of time and what a poor way to manage your business and treat customers. My daughter was heart broken because she was excited for the lesson. I do not recommend GLS for any lesson.
