After a long time ringing I got a recorded message that listed what the place was and what they do. Eventually it got around to mentioning that the shop is closed on Mondays. This is the only way I was able to get this information, so let me save you the trouble of finding this out the hard way as I have.

I had to correct his liberties on my own, which cost me time and money. He didn't even do what I asked him to do. He gave me a specific day It would be ready I went there and he says it wouldn't be ready for another week, poor communication and time management skills. I drove clear across the valley twice; is he gonna pay my gas? I have never in my life paid upfront for guitar repairs. In the 41 years of being a part time guitar tech myself for various VIP's I would consider him subpar and unprofessional. Very disappointed. It's possible he might be on the spectrum; If that's the case I'm glad I was able to help him out, but I will not be returning. It now doesn't surprise me that he lost out on his music venue biz.

Their guitar instructor, Dave, is truly one of a kind. He has an incredible ability to connect with kids, make learning fun, and build real confidence through music. My son Tristan absolutely loves his lessons and especially enjoys playing bass with Dave -- it's become something he genuinely looks forward to every week. Dave's patience, encouragement, and passion for music shine through in every lesson. You can tell he cares not just about teaching notes and technique, but about inspiring creativity and helping students fall in love with music. The entire staff has always been welcoming and supportive, creating an environment where beginners and young musicians feel comfortable and excited to learn. Seeing Tristan grow more confident and excited about music has meant a lot to us as parents. We're incredibly grateful to Dave and the Palm Desert Guitar Center team for making music such a positive part of his life. Highly recommend to any family looking to get their kids started with music or anyone wanting a great instructor!

I was looking to have a complete restoration done to a Bach Stradivarius #37 Trumpet that has been…read morestored in its original case and not used in 20+ years. My parents and I recently received it as a gift from my cousin who got it brand new as a kid over 50 years ago. My cousin wanted my teenage son to have it, so he shipped it to us and we decided we would surprise him with it. My son has worked so hard playing for the past several years and we felt he deserves an upgrade from his student trumpet to a professional instrument. I searched for local music repair shops in my area and landed upon Brass Attitude Mobile Instrument Repair here on Yelp. I was intrigued because this company is the only one I came across that offers to travel to the customer's location, provide a quote and pick up and drop off your instrument as part of their service. I sent a message requesting a virtual consultation and Richard was very responsive and knowledgeable- he took the time to answer ALL of my questions as I had no idea the technicalities of restoring an instrument. Richard accommodated our schedule and we set up a time for him to come to our residence to take a look at the trumpet. He offered several options and suggestions for finishes (lacquered, brushed/satin, and silver plating) and brought his own trumpet to show us what a brushed finish looked like. He evaluated the condition of the trumpet very well, shared his own personal experiences as a trumpet musician, and offered great suggestions for how my son can customize the instrument to his liking as he continues playing. Since the trumpet case was not in the best shape, Richard also offered suggestions on the best cases and stated would also be selling them very soon if we were interested in buying from him. He made great recommendations about the best mouthpieces and valve adjustments to fine-tune the trumpet for creating a better sound. Richard identified the dents that needed removal, valve felts that needed replacement as well as corks and screws that needed replacing. He stated he would give the instrument a much-needed "acid bath" to remove rust and other buildup. Richard assured us that the trumpet was in decent shape, but he could make it look better and get it in ready-to-play shape. We agreed to have the work done. Richard emailed a quote to me itemizing the cost of the service he was going to provide and stated that it would be 3-day turn around to complete the work. He kept great communication with us via text and sent us pictures of his work the night before he was scheduled to drop off the trumpet. We paid the invoice online which was in alignment with his initial quote. About 3 business days later, Richard dropped the instrument off this morning and we are very pleased with the work that he did. We can't wait to see the look on my son's face when he receives his "dream" trumpet on Christmas day! Thank you Richard for making this possible for us and we look forward to your expertise when my son decides to have additional customizations.

We didn't even make it through half of our first lesson and he was walking us to the door because he said my son didn't respect him because he wasn't talking enough. He didn't want to teach him because he wasn't into learning. Which my son is a quite and very respectful kid. He didn't even give him the chance to open up and get comfortable. I couldn't believe how disrespectful he was to me and my son in front of a young kid who was excited about learning something new. The last thing he said to me was that my kid has communication problems. He had his expert opinion on my kid within 20 minutes of meeting him. I didn't realize we were going to see a psychologist and not a piano instructor.
