I walked in today after my first drumming lesson and looked around a bit not sure what to buy and…read moreRyan stepped in and asked me if I needed help. I was looking for a start up drum set and he told me about the Pearl and ludwig sets on the shelf . Once I knew the price included everything to get started I was sold on the Ludwig set! He wasn't sure if sticks were included but they were inside the box so it is a great set for anyone looking to get started . There are no instructions in the box but youtube has an excellent video on set up , tuning and how to get started playing which was very helpful. Ryan also brought the set out to my car and helped me load it so I was very pleased with the service and I will be. back for sure. Thanks again!

Was heading to TJ Maxx and was excited to see this while driving by. Been thinking about picking up…read morea travel acoustic guitar for a while now and thought maybe today was the day. Walked in and was impressed by the multitude of instruments on display. As a prior band geek I was enjoying all the reeds and mouthpieces available while heading to the guitar display. There were some people looking at guitars and it seemed like one of them worked for the store, but I wasn't sure. I wandered around the guitars a bit, waiting for the guy I thought might be working there to break free and talk to me, but that didn't happen. Turned around and saw a woman behind the counter, she didn't look interested in moving to assist either. I had a little time so I walked around the store some more. Saw piano books, some were on sale, made a mental note to share this with a friend. Walked back to the guitars. Identified a few that looked interesting. Waited. No clue where the woman behind the counter went, and the guy I thought maybe worked there was setting something up for the other customer. Or maybe he didn't work there, I couldn't tell. After about a half hour of looking around I left. Not one person said "hello", "are you looking for something", "can I help you" or even "what do you want". It's not like I can't buy what I'm looking for on Amazon and have it delivered to my front door. What I want is to support local, but that's a little hard to do when you're ignored while inside the store. Told my friend about the music books and my experience here. Doubt either of us will choose to step in the door to waste our time.

These are real guitar guys. I have a 1956 Martin that my dad bought. He brought it to D'Angelico in…read moreNYC to set it up, back in the day. The only other guitar tech I've let touch my Martin is Dave Sumner. He's also worked on my Fender Strat, Jazz Bass, P Bass, and Gibson ES-175. He's that good...plus, a joy to do business with. And his associate, Stevie LaRocca, knows his way around a guitar. He taught my son, in fact. I can't say enough good things about DS Music. I send all my friends there. And you too!

I went to Taylor's Music Store intent on purchasing a vintage Martin D-28. I asked Len…read more(President/Owner) for some help looking the guitar over. I am still a beginner in the guitar game, but I am very particular to the "sound" that a guitar makes. I like the sound of a guitar with rich base tones, which was why I was checking out the Martin. For whatever reason, I just wasn't hearing the sound that I was expecting. Given his experience, Len understood what I was looking for, and showed me a brand-new Yamaha TransAcoustic TA3 Grade all solid wood guitar. Talk about a complete 180 from the vintage Martin, but as soon as Len started playing on the Yamaha, game over, I was sold! The guitar has an internal speaker that sounds amazing and features a built-in loop option. Not only that, but the guitar sounds amazing with the electronics turned off! The new Yamaha was a couple of hundred dollars less than the vintage Martin and came with a lifetime warranty! No brainer! After purchasing my new Yamaha, and per Len's advice, I returned to have the guitar tech at Taylor's adjust the action to better suit me, free of charge! Thank you, Len and your team for an outstanding experience! I would definitely recommend Taylor's Music Store! Regards - Ben Percy
