Mike is very relatable and is able to explain things in a simple manner to help me understand the guitar. They even offer virtual lessons and help you learn at your own pace. He has fun analogy for everything with helps you understand things quickly. I was able to get everything I need at their store to prepare for my guitar lessons including picks, a guitar stand, changing strings for my guitar, a tuner, and my lesson book. I can't wait to be a rock star like Mike and Diane! I highly recommend taking lessons and also calling if you have any questions. They give quick responses and get straight to the point! I'm Looking forward to more lessons and playing my first song.

This is a little "mom & pop" music shop, they do music lessons, repairs, cleanings, rentals, etc. They work closely with the schools in the area which is wonderful!!

I want Peterborough Music to be decent, but the store falls short in a number of areas, and is more…read morea glorified lesson studio then it is a serious music store. The storefront is covered in signs to the point of aesthetically ruining the look of the store. You can barely see into the store due to all the signs. Once inside the interior of the store is cluttered and messy.They have no decent electric guitars or amps. The selection of strings and accessories is very minimal, and they are often out of the most popular brands of strings. I've also gone to the store during business hours on multiple occasions and found a "Be back in..." sign. This is unprofessional and inconsiderate to your customers. Musicians have band practice and shows to get to, they don't want to drive 10 minutes to a store that is suppose to be open, only to find it the store closed and have to turn around and go to the other local music store. It only takes this sort of negative experience happening once or twice before people will just stop shopping there. Even when the store is open, half the time they don't even have my brand/gauge of strings, which is the one of the most common brands. Peterborough Music is in a great location and has potential, but needs to clean the place up, stick to it's hours, and get the basics right.

This place is awesome, i'm heading over there right now. R.M. maybe you could take music lessons there, but it seems like interior decoration might be a more suitable career. 11/10 stars.

A few years ago, a friend of mine owned a shop in Easthampton. His name is Ron Midgett. Ron could do any repair, rehair bows, had lots of instruments of good quality for sale at very reasonable prices. But then he retired and moved to Hawaii to grow herbs with his new wife. I spent a lot of time looking around for another similar luthier and was contacted out of the blue by David Baker, who was reaching out to teachers online. We exchanged emails and had a couple phone conversations and I have been sending students to him ever since. I can't think of a nicer guy to have service my violins!
