Harrison listening to tone of guitar top.
Molly B.

Harrison is a brilliant craftsman. Hands down the best luthier around - both for repairs and for workshops in building instruments. AND he's extremely honest, kind, and prompt (he restored my banjo to playable condition within the hour I brought it in). I've also had the privilege of building my own instrument under his instruction. It was a 100% positive experience. Harrison's expertise, patience, and generosity really made it rewarding. I highly recommend attending a workshop or diving into a longer-term class at the Fretted Strings shop. It's really fun, and Harrison will teach you how to do it right the first time! He does mostly guitar repairs, but he works on all sorts of instruments. I've seen banjos, double basses, violins, amps... even drums and wooden shotgun barrels! Whenever I need help with any instrument, I bring it straight to Harrison. I feel so lucky to have Fretted Strings in town. (Plus, the new shop on G Street is awesome! Y'all should just pop in and check it out if you haven't yet.)

Sangho Byun's first instrument, made with  Sitka Spruce and Southeast Asian Rosewood from Harrison's personal supply.

Teacher Liz at Music Yard has been wonderful for my daughter's piano lessons. She does such a great…read morejob building confidence while helping her learn and improve each week. Liz is patient, encouraging, and keeps my daughter motivated and on track with her progress. What we appreciate most is how she also helps guide us as parents so we know how to support our daughter's practice and learning at home. It really feels like she's invested in her success. We're very grateful for Teacher Liz and the positive learning environment she creates. Highly recommend her for anyone looking for a supportive and skilled piano teacher!

Poor customer service. I took an instrument to them to be repaired, called them 6 weeks later and…read morethey did not know where my instrument was. Megan said they would call me back. I called them back later that day and the next day, the manager did not bother to get on the phone with me but was relaying messages to Megan on the phone. They assured me they would be calling me back. The next day. I received a text message letting me know it would be six more weeks and the manager would update me. I had yet to talk to a manager or receive an apology. I texted back that it was unacceptable since they already had it 6 weeks and they lost it. They said they would try to get it done as soon as possible. Two weeks later I was informed the manager would be picking up the instrument and would contact me. A week later Gabe contacted me and was very apologetic for the situation. This was the first apology that I had received. Gabe is the reason this review got one star. He went above and beyond to apologize, communicate and called me more than once. I did get the instrument back. However, when I went to go pick it up, Megan acted like she did not want to help me or recognize that I was in the store. I paid over $300 to have the instrument fixed and my daughter informed me not all the pads were replaced. Very disappointed in this music store and the customer service received. I will be using a different music store in the future
