The worst part was billing. I paid for the first month, and then they charged me for the next month in advance without clear authorization. I went to the store and spoke with the manager, Jason, to request a refund. Despite assurances, the refund never happened. After 14 days of waiting, I had to contact my bank to dispute the charge. Between the lack of communication, disappointing lessons, and the refusal to promptly return my money, this was a horrible experience that I wouldn't want anyone else to go through. I do not recommend this location at all.

When I heard the story of Memory Trees Charity I knew I wanted to help. I still want to help. 100% of all profits from sales at MemoryTrees goes to the charity and benefits young people via apprenticeships and scholarships. The beautiful leather goods and musical instruments are all hand made by the people all over the world who learn the skills to make the products that is supported by Memory Trees! A complete circle of goodness! How wonderful! 1st visit , I purchased the owner's (with his wife Debbie and son Reese) autobiographical book,"Walking on Water", and read it that night. This is a life story of a man who rose from poverty to hosting a charity that actually gives a man and a woman a fishing pole... you know ... you don't just feed them fish... you teach them how to catch the fish. I knew I wanted to know more and help however I could. Next time I bought a beautiful handmade handbag. Next time I bought a handmade Ukulele! We have become friends. Rudi, the owner, was in finances and is helping me. The store is not only beautiful and well run, it is as I said an oasis I highly recommend . You will not be disappointed. Everything is beautifully handcrafted and displayed with care. There is a gallery of Debbie's lovely paintings of flowers and South Africa from where they hail. Last but not least is a gallery of paintings of every president from George Washington to Jimmy Carter by one artist with an interesting story of how this unique collection was obtained. Have fun and be sure to talk to the owners.

By my calculations, I have spent over $150,000 in your stores in thirty years. I consider myself a loyal Guitar Center customer. Until lately, I've always found your store staff to be amazingly helpful and considerate, which further endears Guitar Center to me. Your staff in Hallandale, Florida, especially Samish, my guitar guardian, is incredible. The manager in Coconut Creek, Aaron, has always been friendly, helpful and engaging. His staff in Coconut Creek is at best, "If-ie." Arron has always made me feel welcome and appreciated, which is why I switched my on-going guitar lessons to your incredible instructor Maxx at Coconut Creek. Recently I bought a total of six of your Proline SL24NR Natural Series Rechargeable Folding Music Stand Lights for my band to use at practices. Not expecting any of them to be defective, I didn't see the need to keep the receipt (s), I threw them out. One was defective right out of the box, neither charging nor lighting up when powered by the appropriate power source. I brought the defective Proline light to the store last Saturday when I went for my guitar lesson. The salesperson Steve was gracious as always and helpfully searched for the transaction but couldn't locate such. Steve informed me that any warranty issue, even when the product is new out of the box, was between me and the manufacturer. He said he couldn't help me but gave me Proline's telephone number. Your store manager Aaron was not available to interact with at that time. I further talked with your salesperson, Liz, when I purchased Schaller strap locks, She confirmed Guitar Center's policy of not participating in defective merchandise replacement. I asked if the last guitar I bought in Coconut Creek, a Fender Precision bass, had been defective, what is Guitar Center's position? She told me in that event, I would need to contact Fender personally regarding my $2000 purchase for help resolving any warranty issues. This stated policy is, in my opinion, unacceptable. I have been a loyal customer for well over thirty years and your unwillingness to help me with a recent $39 purchase, especially considering my recent purchases of the Precision, a Gibson 335, and Mark V amp from your stores, is rude and short sighted. One only needs to look up my account using my phone number to review my purchase history. To note, I needed a Fender Telecaster last week for some recording. The most recent experience in Coconut Creek left me upset and I could not in good conscious purchase such from Guitar Center. I bought the Tele from Sweetwater and the appropriate amp for my upcoming work. Guitar Center's shortsighted warranty policy left me upset and you lost a substantial sale and a loyal customer. I plan now to further my business with your competition Sweetwater and to patronize other local music stores in lieu of Guitar Center whenever possible. Just something to consider.
