I do recall seeing someone bring their Gibson Les Paul with a snapped headstock, there for repair years ago. While this may be a known weakness of the Gibson neck, these guys do expert work and have a great reputation. The Luther was Anne. First of all, I was elated that they are inclusive. Not only was she totally up front about the repair, but she did an amazing job, such that it looks like it never happened. Fair prices. Realistic estimates for both cost and time to repair. Highly recommend.

Starting in 2013 my son has taken music lessons at the Elite Music Academy. I have found them to be…read morevery professional about musical instruction, lesson scheduling, organizing recitals and also their fee structure and billing. Elite teachers are all very qualified to teach music and are very good at working with children. I recommend Elite Academy highly for any family looking for great musical instruction.

Dealing with Elite Music Academy has been a disappointment to put it mildly. I took my son for a…read moretrial lesson as I had read glowing reviews of this school over the internet. The administration is completely unprofessional as I was booked in the wrong time slot multiple times over email and finally when we showed for the lesson, I had to email to query on the whereabouts of the teacher- who had no idea that my son was scheduled for a lesson. I had to wait an additional hour with my son for a free time slot. If you value your time, I suggest that you look elsewhere. If you are sent to their woodbine location, N.B that there is no 'front desk' to welcome you or to provide you additional information. You are greeted to an open space with a few chairs on the left of the room. I was not even sure if I was at the right place. Also, our 1/2 hour trial lesson was only twenty minutes. Since this experience, I will inform prospective lesson seekers that there are other schools that offer FREE trial lessons. This was definitely not worth the $20. I will add that I was offered three free lessons to make up for this experience. This may sound generous; however I do value my time and I would have considered the offer if there was an alternative teacher so that both teacher and student could get off on the right start. They did not have any alternative teacher. It is also my understanding that my experience is not unique but one that is characteristic of this organization- while waiting, I had the opportunity to speak with other parents who told me that the administration is disorganized, but they return because they are happy with the teachers.

Instead of investing $800+ on a saxophone, we are renting one for $35 a month to see if my husband is actually seriously about learning to play! We can also apply the monthly rental fee and buy out the sax if he chooses to or apply the money to a different instrument! Good selection of popular sheet music too. I haven't touched the piano for 15+ years but walked out with some sheet music to play for fun. Friendly staff. Saw some cute ukuleles that we could buy our nephew/niece for xmas. Price ranges from $40 and up. Lots of colors and designs to choose from.

I was close but it seemed like the truss rod was stuck, or the bullet stripped. I looked online for shops that I could bring it to and get it fixed. A quick email to Trevor made me feel that he was the right guy. He asked the right questions, didn't pressure me and didn't come across like a music store snob. fast forward a month or so and I arrive, bass in hand and he gets to work on it. Does the whole setup. Filing, tuning etc and then he discovers that there's no sound ( I don't have an amp). He opens it up and sure enough a wire is just hanging there. Quick fix, plug it in and it's alive! He continues to check everything and at the same time telling my why he's doing it etc. In the end, he let me know that yes, the bullet is stripped, but, there was also issues with the nut, which he fixed and after redoing the set up again, the bass was sounding amazing! Trevor is a super cool, laid back guy who really cares about what he does for a living. We talked about guitars in general, as being a newbie I tend to like to ask lots of questions. He was amazing to deal with and will be bringing him my guitar(s) for anything I need done. A real pleasure!
