actualy i have bought 3 guitars from soundmove my latest one being a bass i bought 2 weeks ago…read more They were very helpful and professional and because i didnt have the money to pay them there and then even set up an easy payment which i had a month to pay the balance if i put a deposit down. In addition to there advice the owner even said that if anything should go wrong with it he would repair it for free. Good quality and good service is what i have recieved i dont really care how the guitar was purchased by him now that i have it. I later discovered via the internet that my guitar sold on ebay for more than 4 times what i payed for it so im very happy.

The reason they've chosen to shop there is simple, it's one of the longest running independent music shops 'run by musicians for musicians'. That means there's a top notch selection of guitars, bass, drums, keyboards, synthesisers, drum machines and percussion from leading brands. Beginners can pick up special guitar packages (including unbranded Telecasters and Marshall amps for a bargain £159) whilst there's a great secondhand section including Rickenbackers, Fender Stratocasters and Gibson Les Pauls for seasoned musos. Helpfully, Curly also sell spares and mend instruments on site. The thing that's most endearing however, is the staff's obvious love of all things musical. If you don't play an instrument yet, they'll make you leave wanting to!

Apollo Music is a small music shop in the Grange shopping centre in Birkenhead. If you need…read moreanything music related, they can at least tell you where to find it even if they don't stock it. They seem to be heavy on stringed instruments, as seems to be the case with most music shops in the area. They are friendly and helpful, though, so even if you just want to ask a question about music they would probably be willing to offer advice or suggestions.

This is a great independent music shop. I have been in to buy things in the staff and the staff are…read morereally helpful. There is a large selection of instruments on display but they could do with a bigger shop - because this one is tiny. The prices are quite competitive with the bigger chain of dawsons. They also have the usual notice board feature which you find in a lot of music shops where you can leave a note if your are looking to form a band/sell an instrument etc. There are plenty of accessories on offer in this place too ranging from fingerpicks, amps, guitar straps through to sheet music or new sets of strings. I really like the comfy feel of the place. It feels like the shop of a music loving family rather than a small business out to rip you off.

They also have a good range of sheet music available and will order anything in if they don't have it. They have a good range of instruments on sale such as Violins, Flutes, Oboes, Saxophones and Clarinets. The instruments are available to buy outright or there is the option of organising a 0% finance scheme to pay for the instrument over 12 months. Instruments can also be rented for as little as £9.95 a month. The staff are friendly and very helpful. They are very knowledgeable about the instruments they sell. They are able to suggest an instrument appropriate for the level and age of the player and they do not push you to get the most expensive models. They can advise you on anything additional that needs to go with the instruments such as reeds and again they are very knowledgeable about the appropriate item to go with the instruments. This is an excellent specialist store. A great place for anyone whose children are starting to play an instrument.
