This was my first and last time I'll order from this shoppe. "Unfortunately, they have inventory issues sometimes" Seems to me like they were slow pulling my order and probably just sold it before pulling the order. Avoid this place.

I had a really sour experience with one of my children last year. My daughter loved music before we…read morecame here. I remember picking her up after a couple lessons and I could see that her confidence was shot-- mind you, my daughter is not bad at music. My daughter loves to improvise and grew up in a jazz household. The teacher, whoever she was, clearly felt compelled to talk to her like an animal that needed to be civilized. She is very soft spoken and humble. There is a clear lack of emotional responsibility from the leadership. If you are a parent of a POC child I do not recommend this place at all. There are other competent music studios that will happily and with some kind of grace accommodate for your children.

The Bad: our instructor charged $52/hour, nearly twice the going rate for a 1 hour lesson, and he didn't take much time to find out what my son already knows. Assessment: this is a fine place for adults who are novice musicians, want to stay in the south Mpls neighborhood, and are cool with paying out a good chunk of change.

There are layers and layers of used music equipment laying around.....really difficult (or impossible) to absorb everything they have. There were tons of gems from the late-80s & 90's era when I was in here. This is a great place for gear enthusiast that know what they might be looking at.....otherwise, one might overlook some great things. This place is seriously wall/wall gear. Stacked everywhere.....and I mean everywhere. Difficult navigating through the store it is so packed....it's not for the casual enthusiast. That being said, really cool to be able to browse this shop. When I walked in, I was greeted by the owner asking what I might be in the market for. I got the impression that is his general approach.....but, I wanted to rummage myself to see what awesomeness I would find. In the end I walked out without purchasing anything....but, I'll likely come visit again if I'm back in town.

I'm a teacher and they had the books I needed for my students and (for a tiny shop) had the right selection of instruments for me.

They didn't have the strings I was hoping for in stock but seemed totally willing to get some in for me.

I called Jeff at ToneTron Amps and he fixed it right up for less than the price of a new subwoofer. He did it quickly (about a week because he had to order some parts) and kept me apprised of the situation the whole way. He also explained exactly what was wrong and showed me the blown parts that he had fixed. Now my speakers work good as new and I didn't have to throw a subwoofer into a landfill. Great job and I highly recommend Jeff to anyone looking for audio electronics repair!
