So Miami Music Works is like an all around music store. You can buy or rent instruments and equipment, including pianos and music books. You can also take lessons here, for lots of different instruments. They have little rooms in the back and act as music pimps to local music major college students. The store schedules the appoints and provide the rooms. Very affordable at about $30 for a 1/2 hour lesson. Everyone is helpful and friendly.

Shoutout to Brian for singlehandedly turning a "run in, grab a cord, leave" errand into a genuinely…read moregreat experience. My husband and I called ahead to check if they had a very specific cord. Or chord. Or cable. Honestly... we didn't even know what it was called or what it looked like. Brian picked up the phone, listened patiently while we tried to describe this mystery cord using absolutely zero correct terminology, and somehow immediately knew exactly what we were talking about. Wizard behavior! Not only did he figure it out, but he also set it aside so it was ready for us when we walked in. From there, he kept the same great energy: super kind, patient, helpful, and with a really fun sense of humor. No rushing, no eye rolling, no "how do you not know this" vibes. Just good energy and someone who clearly enjoys helping people. We went in expecting a quick, boring stop and left in a noticeably better mood. It's wild how much a genuinely good interaction can do. So this one's for Brian! Thanks for making our very small purchase feel like a very pleasant experience!

Unpacking a US made Paul Reed Smith is a breathtaking experience itself. Miami Guitars had the slim pattern neck in some rare and unique colors. Their customer service was very attentive and helpful. I highly suggest doing business with a well-known business like Miami Guitars. Whenever I buy an axe online now, I check them first. Miami Guitars has reliability, a large selection, plus some really interesting & unique choices In PRS stuff. their selection is knockout, If you need something popular, like a Gibson LP, a Strat or Tele..they have it. Even if it's not on their site, just ask. They'll have it.. from Fender player series tele up to $70k custom shop burst, and everything in between. They have more guitars that are not represented on reverb In all, a very positive and efficient transaction

Learning to play an instrument is a life long journey. The more you put into it, the more you get out of it. Wendy will make this very clear. She will prove results, she is a guiding hand, sooner before you know it, your hands are flying across the keys. Trust her teachings and judgments. Her range in style is vast, she can go from classical, pop, to latin jazz. She will make anything easy for you. If you are one of those who doesn't care to learn to read music, she will teach you composition and chord progressions, etc. Just let her know what YOU want, and she'll give it. Enjoy it.

The store is small and humble, but the inventory is abundant! "There's a guitar in every case", says Marty. Prices are very good, especially for South Beach. A wide range of brands too. Many stores like SBME are going away due to box stores like Sam Ash and Guitar Center taking over, but luckily a few shops like this are still around. Here is something that would never happen in a large chain music store: I picked up a bass and started thumping, my friend said he played drums so Marty told him to get on the kit which was set up in the room. Next thing we know, Marty is grabbing a guitar and setting up a mic and we started jamming! It was so awesome, I loved it. We played 3 songs together. So fun! Note: He keeps night owl hours. 9pm-3am.

Marty is super knowledgeable about repairing and setting up the action on any number of musical instruments.

Marty is definitely qualified and if he cannot perform whatever task needed he will know someone who does. Amazingly fair pricing as well !
