I left a message asking about sound healing instruments. I've been to crystal shops, spiritual…read moreshops, and metaphysical shops. But, some offer some, but not other items. I thought I'd tried a musical instrument store as well. The owner Jen called me back, and even though she doesn't have sound healing instruments, she gave me recommendations of places to contact. She also is checking with someone that might have one of the specific instruments I'm looking for second hand. We shall see. Not everyone takes the time and effort to help others, and just kind of says no they don't have it, and moves on with their day. She is my kind of people. Anyway, I recommend her place of business just for being kind, and helpful.

He teaches all genres of guitar music and whatever song I want to learn, he shows me how to play it.

Marc is a very devoted, patient, and valuable teacher.

I've been there three times and, despite being the only person there and being there for 20…read moreminutes, no one said a word to me. No "hi" "how can I help you" "what are you looking for", anything. In fact, it takes 10 minutes for an employee to even come out. I get that they teach lessons, but if you double as a store, you should also have a designated employee at the counter, at least to prevent theft. As a drummer, their selection of sticks is pitiful. As a Promark user, the fact that they only sell Vic Firth irks me and they're always out of 5A sticks. As far as practice pads, they only have the Evans Realfeel pad, which has way too rebound for my liking. They also charge more for it than I've seen any other retailer charge for it. Granted, it's a $5 difference ($25 as opposed to $20), but still. Their selection of drumheads was decent, at least carrying more than just Remo. Their selection of guitars looked a little better, but I'm barely even a novice in the guitar world, so I couldn't tell you for certain A little wider variety of products and a little more hospitality is all they need to add, but those are pretty sizeable omissions, so that's why I'm rating them unfavorably.

What an absolute gem of an instrument shop that I feel so fortunate to have come across. I went in…read morebecause I'm potentially on the market for an upright bass, and I cannot express how glad I am I stopped by here. Not only do they have an incredible selection of beautiful instruments, but owners there are such phenomenal, down-to-earth, compassionate people. Nicky was in the store helping me out, and they spent so much time allowing me to try all the different instruments and talking me through them and answering my questions. The shop also has a rental option as well where 50% of the rent goes towards an instrument of your choice (doesn't have to be the rental). If you're looking for a high quality instrument with amazing service, this is the place to go. Could not recommend them more highly!
