Wow! I am new to the area and have been looking for a good mom and pop music store. This place has…read moreit ALL!!! At first I was a bit intimidated because they have a LOT of stuff in a sort of small space. Note to manager: lose some of those pianos up front! Overall, I was a bit intimidated by the cramped space but had a WONDERFUL experience after talking to the staff. I came in looking for a guitar for my 12 year old daughter. I talked to a guy named Bob and instead of trying to push off any old guitar on me, he invited me to come back with my daughter. At first, and because I was sort of in a hurry, I was ready to just buy the first good deal I saw. He explained to me that a musical instrument is a very personal thing and "one size doesn't fit all". I had no idea because they all look pretty much the same to me. Anyway, I brought my daughter in the next day. Bob was there again and sat my daughter down and let her try several guitars. After almost an hour she picked the one she liked best. A nice guitar made by Fender. Her first choice was a small pink guitar but Bob explained about not buying a guitar because of the color, but rather how it feels and sounds. She quickly changed her mind when she held a real instrument and not a toy. Overall, I am VERY happy with my experience at Marion music. They took the time to educate me and make my buying decision a lot less complicated. Kudos to Bob and the rest of the staff!! I HIGHLY recommend this place to everyone.

This is kind of a two part review. I had gone in to ask a couple questions about some issues I was…read morehaving with my acoustic/electric (having most of my answers already but wanted to pick someone's brain) and had the pleasure of working with Dan. Unbeknownst to him I was already planning on upgrading my guitar so he wasn't seeing dollar signs, yet he still took the time to talk with me about the issues I was having and was extremely helpful if only to affirm my suspicions. He was very knowledgeable and freely shared his experience and know how. I played several guitars and decided on a nice Takamine...granted not a $3000+ Taylor, but still close to a $1000 guitar. (BTW the price was the same as online...no price gouge for buying local) After getting it home and spending some time playing I kept noticing a buzzing that I hadn't heard in the store (it was noisy that day). Needless to say I was gut sick thinking I spent that much money on a "lemon". I also didn't want to deal with sending it to the mfg as a warranty issue as I've had little luck getting resolution that way in the past. I called and talked to Don the owner and he put my fears at ease saying to give it a week or so to acclimate to the new environment, but if it didn't clear up to bring it in and they would look it over, and make any adjustments that may be needed no charge. If they couldn't fix it they would replace it. It was still buzzing after a week so I brought it in...of course thinking the worst. In the end it was a simple fix that was so simple I'm too embarrassed to say what as I've played for over 20 years and should have caught the problem, but needless to say they were so gracious, helpful, and willing to do what they could to make me happy with my purchase they have earned my loyalty.

I went to this Store and was very disappointed regarding services. I needed Strings and Adjustment…read moreon my 5 string Fender Jazz Bass. It took them over a month to get the strings. In addition the adjustment of the bass was done poorly. When you asked the Manager regarding time frame he doesn't have a clue. They were not communicating with me until I scold the manager that the least the can do is communicate with customers as to the status of your equipment. They broke the case of my bass and they did replace it a month later. I paid money for my bass to be adjusted and new strings. got the strings but the adjustment was not done properly. The strings are hitting the frets. Terrible Terrible I also Left them my Ampeg SV7 Pro to be repair. They do not have any reliable technician who is responsible to do the work. They take your equipment and it seats on the floor for weeks before the technician looks at it and then the technician does not even looks at the amp. I place a tape on the side of the amp where if the Tech opened the amp to diagnose it would brake. The tape was intact no breakage. That means the tech did not open to diagnose. I know this is a long review but going to this store is a waist of time and money. The manager doesn't have a clue as to when you order a product when it will be in the store. It's very simple when you order product get a tracking number and you will know when it will arrive. Or have an idea. I would not recommend this store they lost my business and I will have this information posted on my webpage and internet radio station Tropicjazz.net

It wasn't too far from home So I emailed the owner to get info. He responded very quickly and the pricing was in line with the area. We set up a trial and we are so glad we did. I couldn't be happier . They have a great area in the front to wait with comfortable seating, a few tables and it's nicely decorated. Ellis the instructor is fantastic. My child is eager to come every week and practices on his own at home every day and that is due to Ellis. I couldn't be more thrilled that we chose this place. They give piano and guitar lessons too , I've seen students come in. I don't know what other instruments they might provide instruction on. I've also been told it's a great recording studio , as they do recording and mixing here as well.

After each lesson I leave with "homework" (and I mean the fun type) to work on at home.

I have purchased several items here over the years and the staff remembers me and treats me in a…read morefun yet respectful manner. I see some questionable revues from some people selling items but some items are better listed on craigslist or yard sale. It's hard for a shop like this to go high on an item that they have an excess of inventory. Paintball, TV's, computers, stereos, and cheap tools are available here in abundance. Guns and jewelry are available here for a fraction of the new price. That $5K ring from Zale's is actually worth about $600 in the open market which goes by the value of the metal and stones, not the name brand. My review is from a buyers perspective but I've seen several deals made with people of realistic expectations. $100 loan on a quality firearm; realistic. $100 loan on a five-year old laptop with a worn-out battery; not so much. There is also the possibility of finding something unique that you probably wouldn't see in the mall or Wal-Mart. I think I'll stop by later this afternoon; I'm looking for a new bass rod.

That's where all the good things ended. I went to enroll and The person who gave the class took me to the front desk where he told the gentleman up there to put us with (insert name of another instructor) I don't want to sign up with someone that I have not met and I don't know if my child will like. I then learned children can Only take group lessons until they are over. They cannot have private lessons. Also you do not move up groups according to your ability you move according to your age. That made no sense to me because if your child practices more and maybe has a natural ability they can still be in the same class as someone who begins tomorrow because they are the same age. Needless to say, we did not sign up, and we have already found another place more in line with what we were looking for.
