    Arrived for my guitar lesson 5 minutes in advance, walked around and checked everything out. Upon…read moreentering, I was greeted and while looking around, I was also asked if I had any questions. The person led me back to the lesson area and I waited for about 15 minutes (not happy that my appointment started late but whatev). I chose Sharon because when I called to book the appointment, I was told she has the most experience with newbies and old people (Haha! YES, I'm an old person, Gen-Xer here. I told them I needed an instructor who had patience). Sharon was great with explaining a few key tips and showed me the E, F and G keys. It was a helpful lesson, I did learn some new things and before I left the lesson area she gave me a printout of the notes to practice then walked me to the front. One of my New Year's resolutions is learn how to play a guitar so... this is a start!

    I bought some equipment from them paying cash. It was like $350. I go and return it. They say oh…read moreanything above 200 bucks. We have to write you a check for. Then they write me a check on it Saturday for a refund for a bank that I can't cash it until Monday. When I'm going to return it to the front desk. The dude literally says I'll check the receipt and return it The way you paid us. but I paid in cash. He goes all well. We have to write you a check than. What do you mean? I thought you said you were gonna pay me the way I paid for it if I got the cash for it. And I'm just my own lonely dude. How do you not got the cash for it as a whole Business?

    I took a guitar into Music Connection I bought on line, thought it was through them. I goofed. I…read morebought it through a different com. I was so embarrassed. They called the other business and was able to get them to send me a receipt and they put me back on track. They are wonderful. And I appreciate them very much.

    I dropped off my brothers fender bass amp to replace the input jack 6 million years ago and was…read moretold 1 week maybe 2. Very simple, easy. Called back after a month of not hearing anything and was told that they were waiting on a part that they normally have and is super common. They are only out because they did a similar repair last week. Called back a couple weeks later, said still waiting on the part but it will be here the 8th. Well, today is the 17th and I called in. They said they don't do bass amp repairs and asked am I sure if I dropped it off there. I brought my claim check ticket to the storefront and thankfully they were able to locate the amp . I'm currently inside the store waiting for the amp to be brought back to the store location, as they had it stored offsite for some reason. Said they would be here in an hour. I don't have high hopes of that happening. Wish me luck. In not a review guy but I have the time today as I wait. Moral of the story: music connection Redding is the standard for business these days. Lacking communication, care, and any pride for their business. They know they are the only game in town and don't need your business so they'll get to it when they get to it and in between you can just sit and wonder. You're not worth their time to call and update you. 30 seconds is too much while they are so busy. Except when you go in there there is no customers or any work being done. Just look how they leave their shop trashy and junked up. All while getting treated like you're inconveniencing them for asking them to do their jobs. Thanks guys! Update: I've been here an hour and they did do some work. They tuned a guitar for a homeless guy.
