    Inside out: the parking lot has ample space and it's right off of a main drag, we had no trouble…read morelocating it and no trouble finding a place to park. 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.

    just like everyone else bad service I can come in one day and meet nice people willing to help…read morealmost too much then the next day they disappear and the most horrible people to work are their I'm trying to buy a guitar and am being rushed out because it's an hour before they close having forbid, I come in and try to buy something on top of that how can you work at an instrument store and not know anything about interments i go in to get my guitar checked and I say idk anything about it and the guy says well you own it you should know makes no sense because I ask to learn about it what kind of service is that. these people are RUDE AND UNHELPFULL AND SHOULD BE FIRED it's the only store around me this is not ok fix your employees on top of that the lady their puts my guitar together wrong and messes up the NEW STRINGS i just bought my bridge fell off so i put it on and she "corrects me" as idk to well about my guitar so i assume people working in a guitar shop would know what they're doing turns out NOPE AND NOW I NEED NEW STRINGS THANKS DORSEYS YOU PRICKS
