The building itself is older, the inside is as well, but I don't really think it's the inside or outside display that makes this place worth the trip. Service: I read through the reviews on here and I was genuinely shocked because it was the polar opposite from the experience my husband and I had. I have not played the cello in years because my old gal needed so much maintenance and we are not wealthy people by any stretch of the imagination. I was terrified of how much this bill was going to be, and when they called to request us to come in on an appointment and discuss it I was even more scared. I figured that was it, I could never play again. First of all we made an appointment for noon and we drove out to have breakfast, we got done a little early and while we were willing to wait until the appointment time, we called to see if we could get in a little early and they said that was no trouble they just needed to finish up with their last appointment. They set the expectations and it did not bother us at all. All the staff was busy when we came in it was not like they ignored people out of spite, it was just that they had things they were doing. As soon as a person finished with some thing we were welcomed and offered a place to sit and wait. I see a lot of reviews talking about not being immediately addressed or having to wait, please be a human and realize that there aren't many of them in the store for a massive demand of work. It's not like they're just sitting around doing nothing, they were working on everyone's instruments from the minute we got there to the minute we left. I know the turnaround time would be a few weeks, but I really hope that this is not just me believing good customer service and I will get back an instrument that is playable with quality repairs. Appointments would probably help a lot of problems for people, just calling ahead might do a world of good for you. I can't imagine there's a lot of luthier's in the valley. David was the person who helped explain everything that was going on with my instrument, I learned more in that time than I ever had about what made instruments work piece by piece and why. I bet if I would've asked how much it was and had no idea why I was spending the money I never would've repaired my cello or played again, I have never understood more in my life what I was paying for. That was absolutely the most valuable service anyone could provide, he was patient and used examples of other instruments and showed me on mine where the correlations were and what mattered. There was no pressure to spend money that we did not have, He was clearly passionate about teaching and I was excited to learn. Each item was prioritized by what needed to be fixed to play, and progress for the future. I knew my cello wasn't anything fancy to look at, as old as I am with plenty of bumps and bruises from a life before I got her. I had used money that I got from a late grandmother to try my hand at a dream I could never afford before and I knew she would want me to try so it is sentimental. I had paid for lessons with the rest of it and then Covid happened and my teacher moved away and my Cello needed repairs I didn't figure I could do. They did not shame me for my instrument being of less fancy or attractive quality, " it's not whether it's a good or bad Cello, it's whether it's healthy or not." They also did not make any negative comments about the fact I didn't remember anything from my lessons and I was worried about trying to find a teacher again, they had a recommendation to contact their Boise store to see a more up-to-date list of teachers near me and were encouraging to a total newbie despite the fact I knew I was standing in the presence of a lot of combined experience. Brent was there working on something behind the counter and made idle friendly banter with us, Sam was very generous and allowing David to show us the tools that they used to make repairs and how they did so. I really enjoyed seeing the 1800s woodworking tool still in use! Brent even had a conversation with me about a shared interest of tabletop gaming while my husband checked out (the best birthday gift). I'm sad other people had negative experiences at the store, but it was genuinely one of the best experiences I've had in customer service in a long time, I work in customer service and my expectations are always gentle but this was just absolutely phenomenal.

Say one thing, do another…read more We had a layaway with $30 down from over 7 months ago. Life happened and we honestly forgot about it--not the end of the world. What *does* matter is how Dorsey Music handled it. Ironically, Dorsey Music called *us* at the end of last week to follow up and ask if we still wanted the layaway. Important context: we've purchased **five guitars** from this business over the years because we wanted to support a local, small business over chain stores. One of those guitars was bought as recently as **12/26/25**, and at no point during that purchase did anyone mention the outstanding layaway--even though it was clearly in their system. When they called about the layaway, we explained we forgot about it. They were understanding, so we asked if the $30 could be applied as store credit toward a future purchase. That was denied. We then asked if it could be applied toward guitar strings. We were explicitly told **yes**, and to come in Monday (**1/5/26**) to get the strings. So we drove to the Nampa location today, only to be told something completely different: the $30 could *only* be applied to an item of equal or greater value, comparable to the original amp on layaway. That's the issue--**not the $30**, but the principle. Don't tell customers "yes, come in and we'll apply it to strings," then change the rules once they're standing at the counter. Especially when those customers have spent **hundreds of dollars recently** and supported your business repeatedly. Clearly they needed the $30 more than they needed our future business. We hope it was worth it, because after five guitars and years of loyalty, we won't be back. At least with a chain store, you know what to expect. There's zero recognition of good customers here anymore. Do yourself a favor and shop elsewhere.
