Customer service alone deserves more than a 5-star review. Went here on the 2nd of March to get a…read morenew practice amp as my cheap Amazon amp was not doing enough. Went to another music store, which shall not be named, and was not greeted very kindly- workers at that music store were very quiet, I wasn't even greeted at the door and had to make my presence noticed and say good morning- to them. The experience here at Harper's Music Store was different however. It's been years since I've been here- last time I was here, I recall getting a synthetic reed for my baritone sax. The owner, Steve, greeted me as I walked through the door and asked me what my needs were. I told him I was looking for a beginner AMP and first showed me some small, cheap options. I then asked him that I wanted something with a little more features to it and then showed me a Marshall MG30FX and a Spider IV Line 6 75 W. I decided to go with the Line 6 as the presets and customizability of the AMP was what persuaded me in buying it. I'm not sure if he works here too but Michael helped me in further solidifying my purchase of the Spider AMP over the Marshall because of the same reasons, so thank you to you too Michael! Purchasing my Fender Starcaster here was a breeze- I traded in a guitar for the Starcaster and that process was very straight forward- just show your ID and Steve'll take a look online to see how much it is priced and give you a fair offer like he did with me. Overall, if you're looking for musical needs, going to Harper's Music Store is a great idea. The customer service let alone is really what knocks this place out of the park. I'll be coming here again if I need anything else.

All three of my kids attended Santee music academy (ages 6, 6, & 9) and all of the teachers were…read morewell prepared for each session and kept the lessons engaging. My 6yo son loved his lessons with Joey and I highly recommend him for drums (I'm sure he's excellent at guitar also). He learned a ton in a short amount of time and Joey even played the guitar while my son drummed live at his first recital. Joey was very passionate about teaching and was always excited when my son finally nailed a section of song he had been working on. Santee music academy has great teachers. The only reason we stopped going is because sports with three kids resulted in too many conflicts and our goal was to expose them to music at a young age and then see if they want to come back to it in the future under their own desire.
