    Season C.

    Amazing service! We live in Newbury Park and drive out to Santa Barbara for all our cello needs. Linda is an expert and is so helpful. Her and her sister have gone out of their way to help my son pick and maintain his cello. We're very happy with the service here.

    I love my cello!

    See all

    I drove to Santa Barbara from San Diego because no local luthier was willing to repair the broken neck on my cello.

Also dealing with children whose first or second year being employed and or running the store. So this Michael, curly haired man was telling me that they didn't have a book I wanted so I was going to resort to the normal route-buying it on Amazon and getting it shipped to my door the next day. But he insisted that he can get it transferred from another store and it'll be three days tops, he took my info down and said he'll give me a ring after it arrives. And I wanted to support local so I waited the old school way. After two weeks went by I didn't get a call or text so I decided to call them and this lady picks up and said yes they do have it. I came in the store and they didn't have it and he went off angry and screaming at me basically because I'm a dummy - 'like if you don't put a deposit down, you won't get it.' He was saying it all fast paced and clearly very annoyed of me. I mean what are they busy doing? All of the instruments I've touched are all dusty and ragged looking and most are made in china and doubled the price of online. He initially told me I didn't even need to put a deposit and now he's screaming at me and irritated at me and arguing back and forth with a customer. Unprofessional and milks the hourly doing nothing. I hope no one supports this outdated looking and made in china products store. If you want great customer service from all departments for music- go to Santa Maria, Oxnard or Westlake Village for The Guitar Center, they are super professional and they're actually rockstars that will keep you and/or your child inspired.

    Kindermusik with Kathy is truly the best. I wish I had joined earlier! My almost three year old…read moreis in love with the classes, with Miss. Kathy, the songs, every part of the experience. My 5 1/2 year old is taking the Young Child 1 class and is having a blast while learning musical theory (although he doesn't know that's what he's doing!) piano, glockenspiel, note reading. The integration of movement into the class makes this truly special in that children are not just getting music classes, they are building body awareness, coordination, strength, and more. Kathy is genuinely wonderful and her teachers are also fantastic. She is warm, loving, inviting, understanding, and the kids can feel it and respond in kind. Lastly, money & schedule-wise this is by far the way to do music classes. You pay one monthly fee and then you can take your child to any of the classes (at any fo the locations!) for their age-group plus any of the family classes. Both my kids straddle the age between two different classes and Kathy has encouraged us to attend all of them when the timing is right. This is something special and personal. The music classes themselves are of the highest quality but what really makes Kindermusik with Kathy exceptional is Kathy herself. The way she runs the program makes it clear to all of us that she truly values each and every family and wants us to get the most out of the program. Plus, for the baby/toddler/[preschooler music classes there's no need to worry about make-up classes as you are able to go to any of all of them. Can't beat that!

They learn 4 instruments over the course of a year(recorder, piano, glockenspiel, and dulcimer) and they learn how to read notes and play songs as group with other kids playing different parts. They learn the music not in an academic way, but in a kinesthetic way. First they clap, sing or stomp the music out before they ever play a note. They act out songs and stories from all over the world. Kathy is so playful and engaging with an expert grasp on the method behind the music. Kathy is one of their all time favorite teachers and they have such a love for music because of Kinder Musik. There is something for every age group!

He's been giving lessons to our family for about 5 months now and I can't even tell you the leaps and bounds of progress that is being made! He varies the lessons and music week by week, and keeps it interesting. Whether you are just starting out or want to fine tune your skill, Robbie is the teacher for you. He comes directly to your home, is prepared and makes learning how to play an instrument fun! He's affordable and flexible with his schedule. And when I say that he genuinely cares about his students, I truly mean, he cares about them. We are so lucky to have him give lessons to our family. A Santa Barbara gem!

He is a devoted teacher and a skilled musician. He even takes extra time outside of our lessons to make recordings for me to practice with throughout the week. I would recommend him to beginning, intermediate, or skilled musicians, really anyone can benefit from him. Robbie also gives weekly goals for his students to focus on, which I feel has helped a lot. I am able to target areas that need improvement by having these goals set. I love that he will focus on the style of music that I enjoy. He has great rates as well, very affordable. Great teacher!

Steve has done pickup replacements and full setups for me on several of my electric and acoustic guitars (Gibson LP, Eastman SB59, G&L ASAT Classic 'S', and an Eastman E10-00-SS). His work has been exceptional and done with great care and respect. He's very easy to work with, has a great sense of humor, and though busy, always seems to get jobs done within a reasonable time. Most recently, I brought in my Eastman acoustic to get the (very tall) bone saddle and action lowered. I brought in my Taylor 514CE (which Gryphon Guitars in Palo Alto had worked on to dial in its action), for Steve to see and play, and serve as an example of the setup I wanted for the Eastman. Not only did Steve match the action on my Taylor, but the Eastman turned out even easier to play! Great work. Needless to say, I've definitely found my go-to guitar shop here.

I heard about Steve from multiple respected sources and I finally caved and brought the guitar in. Well I just my guitar back and it sounds and plays like a dream. It actually feels like I first remember out of the Martin factory. Steve was very kind and told me if I need anything adjusted to let him know. His price was affordable and most of all his work shows true professionalism. I highly recommend him. I wish I could give him more stars.
