I needed ukulele strings because I just inherited two ukuleles from my dad who recently passed away, and I'm going to learn how to play them better. I was looking for replacement strings, including low G for a tenor ukulele. Guitar Center didn't have the strings in stock, but I could look for them at the online Guitar Center site. I did find replacement fluorocarbon strings for my new (at least new to me) soprano ukulele. If you're looking for regular musical instruments that you could play in a rock band, such as keyboards, guitars, drums, and their accessories, instrument cases, music stands, speakers and amps, you could probably find it here and at different price points. The employee that I asked for assistance in locating where the ukulele replacement strings knew exactly which aisle to walk me to, but two other employees didn't seem to want to use the register to ring up my purchase so I could leave, making me wait until a third employee walked up to ask if I was ready to check out. After I said yes, he walked to get another employee to help me. At the end of the sale transaction, the employee thanked me. I just stood there looking at him. That's when he asked, "Didn't I give you your receipt?" I replied, "Yes, but you didn't give me my strings that I just paid for." In the short time that I was at the register, the employee managed to hide the strings from himself and it took him a few seconds to find them.

I was told 300 and called them up to confirm and for an explanation of what to expect. The not so friendly Renee told me the 300.00 included 1 month of lessons for 45 mins each and 1/week reherersal. Fine. How do I pay I asked? "Ummmm..... well you can just send me your info in an emai.....l I guess....."WTF? okay..... No thanks, I will just pay in person when I come. When I arrived Renee wasn't there and apparently neither was anyone else who could process my payment. Not only that -they were not ready for my daughter either and suggested that I take off and that she "hang out" there for about an hour and half with them. She's 8!! ok...... Surely they mean that there are some other kids perhaps in the same situation and they have some activities planned for them or something along those lines. I quickly figured out that was not the case as I watched the instructors skip out to lunch. Since no else said anything else to me I decided to sit and wait with my daughter until they returned and made time for her....A few days later I checked my bank account only to find that school of rock had charged me double. #$%^&*(. And when I called and spoke with the owners Mike and Renee, they cheerfully responded with sarcasm and reassured me again that "WE DONT GIVE A SHIT!!!!!" AND just to make sure that I got the message Mike sent me a cheerful email..with all exclaimation points..that he PERSONALLY DOESN"T GIVE 2 SHITS!!! . My next issue with these assclowns. After talking to my daughter I realized she was not receiving the private lessons I was paying for....so I emailed the owners. Who again treated me with zero respect. Ok, i get it. You are in a prime buckhead location, making money hand over fist and DONT GIVE A SHIT but really...that's just not cool. I emailed Mike AGAIN for my refund and this time he didn't respond with all all excamation points!! hey! Christina! We don't give a shit!!! So maybe I will get my well deserved refund. In the meantime, all the instructors seem nice and my mini me likes coming here..which makes the fact that owners don't care about customer service all the more incredibly frustating.

This was all learned within a week. What?! The kids all show each other great love within the school. I have seen my son so proud of himself this last year, which in turn, makes me all the prouder. Payments are easily automatic withdrawals from my account. . I'm so thankful for the instructors that run this place! I can see my son staying here until he ages out at 18.

There is no voice mail. Service phone often rings for 20 rings (gave up after then) and never is answered. The people in the store know about these problems, but the corporate office does nothing to fix it. The corporate call center went so far as to tell me they couldn't control the hours on Google. What? Again, less than stellar workers. Also, personnel is not properly trained. ie: I was told I could get a flute repair done in a week, then I found out it was a month...after I flew to the USA with my flute from another country. So, I bought a new flute. I asked the service department to check it over completely as I did not live in the USA and wanted to make sure there were no issues. Note this was a rather expensive silver flute. They gave it to me saying it was perfect. Well, it wasn't! The interior was filthy...used. The f# key leaks. I am flying back to the USA. It took me 12 phone calls including 2 useless calls to the call center before I could speak to someone. I was promised a call back from the call center in 40 minutes. Never called. Bottom line is, good selection, knowledgeable sales people, lousy service and not the brightest in the call center. I think some of the staff is good at some of the stores, but really, they need training.

I am so happy to have The Music Studio at Vinings as a part of the community! After many years of…read morecar and shower singing, I decided to bite the bullet and start taking voice lessons. I was really nervous, but TMS made it fun and easy to find the best time for me each week and matched me with a teacher that I felt safe, comfortable and loved by! More than anything, my teacher has helped me gain confidence and stay inspired to keep practicing every week. We pick music that resonates with me and I stay excited about all of our material because we have chosen it together! Taking music lessons has been such a beautiful form of therapy and I am so grateful to have this place to grow and blossom with. I set a goal when I first started taking lessons six months ago to perform at least once in front of a crowd. I am terrified of public speaking, and taking voice lessons has helped me actively work to conquer this fear. I am proud to say, I was recently able to perform in front of a group and it was the best feeling to celebrate all of my hard work and dedication with my teacher! I also have been able to expand my range by multiple notes with techniques and guidance. I highly recommend this studio for adults interested in finding a new passion or revisiting an old love of music. It's wonderful for children as well and they make it easy for families to take lessons at the same time, together! I love supporting this family owned and managed company and can't say enough good things about the Director, Cecilia. She is so dedicated to her mission and leads with so much love and kindness, but also with decades of experience in music education. Stop by the studio for a tour 7 days a week and see for yourself why this place is a little slice of heaven!
