    Fret wear from B and E strings
    Alvin C.

    This mom and pop shop is a Gem. Kent took me In and out less than 20 min. He made sure he gets all the information regarding my concern (Fret leveling and crown plus setup) This gentleman got some good sense of humor. That alone will keep me coming back to this place. One day later they called me and to my surprised his son Josh is done with my guitar. Came to pick up my acoustic guitar and played it to make sure everything is on point. Man, Never in my life to be amazed how well Josh performed his skills making these guitars sings so well. It was Nice to meet really kind and awesome people!

    Seagull strings replaced. So clean and well done!

    I came to this place because it was highly recommended by a family member. I have no idea about guitars. I just wanted to surprise my partner by getting the buzzing issue of her guitar fixed. I am very pleased with the customer service! Marian was very friendly and professional both over the phone and in person. The facility is clean and organized. Ken was simply amazing! He was accommodating, very knowledgeable about guitars and he took the time to explain what needed to be done. I am not musically inclined but I could tell the quality of sound was remarkable after the work was done. The price of their service is also very reasonable. Highly recommended and I would give them more than 5 stars!

    They also provide lessons and workshops.

    Old business with a modern website and great customer service. I emailed inquiring about bass guitar lessons and they replied very quickly. My friend and I dropped by their shop which was more of a workshop with rooms for lessons. There is a reason why they are in business for so long: They know what they are talking about and they care about customers.

The range I saw was from sale items at 49.99 up to 200+, they have a good, moderate amount of choices at each level, with different brands and accompanying acessories! My ukelele is a soprano, a great beginner ukelele I was practicing with, got it for $75 with tax and a carrying bag included in my purchase, if I remember correctly, tag price was $69.99 I did ask if there was something similar to a brand/type of ukelele I started my practice with but I was then getting sold onto the more expensive pieces that I didn't have experience with and didn't ask for so that was a miss for me. Wish I got more of a relevant recommendation but the workers were sweet, they let us browse by ourselves for a good amount of time before stepping in (which good for me because I needed time to think, compare, and browse). When we went, there were a handful of other customers inside the store, it's located in a small shopping center but the store is bigger inside than it appears on the outside. The parking situation was just okay, not bad, could use a tad bit more space, we went ~1p the parking lot was full minus 2-3 spots but I noticed cars came and went from the time we got there until we left so it seems like there's a couple spots free at any given time due to the traffic coming in and out for small errands. Lots of instruments and accessories to be found inside and the workers seem to be happy to help find what is needed! Pretty well organized inside to find what you need on your own though, I was able to find the ukeleles quickly.

They were finally able to resolve the issue but didn't offer me any type of discount ... when they sold me a speaker that had a broken fuse took me 30 minutes to figure it out and it was the last one they had in stock. I was 2 hours late to my gig and they ended up giving me their display because it was all they had of that particular speaker so I could do my gig since I paid full price for a speaker that didn't even work. Christian said he wasn't able to refund me my $650 even tho it was their mistake, so he gave me store credit of $650. I became even more upset that he didnt even give me any type of discount when I decided to use my store credit to buy the most expensive speaker he convinced me to purchase. Then the last straw was when he told me he would call me and let me know when my products arrived and are ready for pick up.... He didn't tell me until 2 weeks later but he was so persistent with calling me in the beginning to make the sale ... I told him I don't check my email and appreciate his calls but taking 2 weeks to let me know it arrived.... Smh. All good I just would be cautious when purchasing with christian he's focused on sales not our happiness. He is quick to make sales and call me daily to check if I'm ready to go back to make a purchase but not so quick to tell me my order arrived and was ready for pick up. Or give me a deal when they made mistakes. Guess that's why he's the lead sales not lead in customer service. I will be back but I'll ask for Juan or Kyle to help me. Other than that I love my speaker I like that it works clear and loud through Bluetooth.

He is very easy to communicate with and flexible to accomodate my request on my son's lesson plan. He often organized get together events for all his students and families which we enjoy very much.

In fact, we just had our Holiday Recital at Santa Clara University Recital Hall. It's a great venue and my son had an amazing experience performed on the stage.

Grant transformed our musical journey from the first lesson to the present day. He is dedicated to a teaching style that emphasizes creativity that feeds off musicality. He introduces his students to various genres and styles that create an environment of inspiration and discovery for his students and himself. He truly cares about the well-being of my daughter in conjunction with generating a deep understanding of her pieces that have enabled her to pass CM Level 10 with honors and support and fuel her desire to enter a few competitions. Grant is able to strike the perfect balance between nurturing her creativity and fostering her technical foundation. His teaching style is both patient and encouraging. As a parent, it's important to utilize many tools to communicate and conduct business seamlessly. Everything is tracked and communicated through my daughter, teaching her to manage her lessons on her own by staying updated with the latest teaching methodologies and innovative techniques, and that is a great benefit. Grant's communication and interpersonal skills are exceptional. My daughter is an introvert, and Grant is able to foster that trait by building a strong teacher-student bond. In conclusion, We are immensely grateful for Grant's guidance and would definitely recommend him to anyone seeking an excellent piano teacher.
