Great music store located in downtown Dayton. I was driving through and saw a billboard advertisement. I had time so decided to check it out. I was very impressed with the selection and prices. Staff were friendly and answered any questions I had. read more

It was a pleasure to buy my first Les Paul at Main Stage Music last week. The team there treated me great, were very patient as I asked questions, and showed me several guitars, talked about the features, and let me try the ones I was interested in. I got a great deal on an awesome guitar but, most importantly, found a new favorite music store and I will be a customer at Main Stage Music for life. It's very much worth the one hour plus and scenic drive from Knoxville. read more

Main Stage Music - Epiphone Les Paul - Musical Instruments & Teachers Near Me - Dayton, Tennessee

Folks running this place were super nice and helpful. It's a cool little setup and that have a great variety of guitars and pedals which I totally dig! Will be back to grab some more gear! read more

This is an excellent music store. They have lots of guitars, both electric and acoustic. They had lots of drums as well as other instruments as well. They also have old albums and even 45s for sale! What made this store so special was the time they spend with you to ensure you get the assistance you need. They were very knowledgeable, at least about the guitars. They also let our 11 year old try out a couple of the guitars. He's had lessons for almost a year, so he knew the basics. They didn't rush him and let him try a couple of different ones. This is probably the highlight of the vacation for him. read more

Unfortunately I can't give this place a good review. I never do reviews but this was bad. I took a Les Paul in for a fret crown and polish. I also took a strat pick guard to get rewired. They leveled a few frets on the Paul. I wanted a complete crown and polish. I made it very clear. It plays ok but that's not what I asked for. The strat pickguard is totally wrong. Some of the pickup settings don't work at all others sound weak. I'll have to have it redone. Just to be clear I've been a guitarist for 50 years and the guy that did all my work before was Buddy Guys guitar tech so I know good work. As a store it's fine. Just don't get work done there. read more

They put in my pick up same day and gave me an extra pack of strings. Highly recommended.

First time in today. Quality inventory and super nice staff. Staff met us at the door and made us feel at home. Will be back as they do tune-ups, repairs,etc. New it was a cool place as soon as I saw the display of Martin guitars when you first walk in. Like a kid in a candy store! read more

Can't say enough good things about this place! Staff and owner are knowledgeable and friendly, and their inventory is stellar. Repair work is top notch - I've had two guitars repaired and setup there, and quite honestly, I won't go anywhere else. Big time music store with a small town feel. Highly recommended. read more

What if there was a small town music store that was as friendly as the barber shop on the Andy Griffith show, but also had a full offering of top-name gear AND a knowledgeable and experienced staff of actual working musicians? There is such a place and this is it. I regularly drive past two other stores to make the trip to downtown Dayton because I know I can get what I need at a fair price from folks who genuinely appreciate my business. If music is your hobby or your job, and you haven't checked out Main Stage Music you are missing out. read more

Very dishonorable business practices. I was charged overnight shipping as the item was required next day and received 2 day shipping. On 2018/08/30 when the item was received late I called to ask for the credit for overnight shipping. Brad agreed to it as it was admitted that is was their error and I was told I would see the credit immediately. On 2018/11/30 I followed up with Brad and what I got was story as to why I didn't deserve the credit, the fiction of a slippery sales you-know-what! Do yourself and AVOID! read more

What a gem of a find - great music store -have everything a musician would need - wish they had one in Florida we would be regular customers - good knowledgable staff. Support your local businesses! read more

Recieved a used guitar that was significantly not as described in the listing. Their policy is to pay for return shipping if a customer ships back a guitar that is not as described. I had to pay out of pocket $50 to send it back and was basically told I'm SOL getting refunded for that. My advice to this company would be to better describe your listings in the first place and stand behind your return policies. read more

Not a bad little music sore in the middle of nowhereville. They honestly have a great selection of guitars, amps, keyboards and all other kinds of musical gear. The staff is helpful and knows whats up...if I lived closer I would shop here. read more

More gossip than your mom's hair salon. If you want to listen to the owner talk bad about your friends then this is the place to be. Just know that he'll talk about you also when you're gone. read more

I have purchased two guitars from Brad - a 1962 reissue Epiphone Sheraton and a 1964 reissue Epiphone Texan. Excellent service, advice and price. The guitars are shipped promptly and packed to the max. I would purchase again without hesitation and would hope to make it to his store sometime to meet him in person. Plus, Brad never forgets the guitars you buy from him... read more

This had been my local music store for years. They have the best selection within 50 miles and these guys are musicians, collectors, and players!! Best trade in for your money on used gear and ya gotta check out their new prices and selection!! Go visit Brad and Trevor the store speaks for itself. read more

This store bought 2 guitars I had stolen from me same day, then resold them either the same day or day after by there own admission. in my opinion they knew they were stolen since my cousin who stole them cant play guitar, doesn't know anything about guitars, and the store wouldn't even wait the 10 days required by law to resale. local law enforcement cited the store with a ticket, or at least told me they did and im trying to get my Gibson and blue ridge guitar back. This great man Brad has not been nice about the situation and refuses to tell me who he sold the guitars too just says he sold them, if he would have waited at least 48 hours I would have my guitars now. This is not a business transaction that occurred in good faith and I believe everyone could agree. I am upset at this store and am taking the steps to sue in small claims court which I believe is my recourse. happy shopping everyone be on the lookout for a 2016 Gibson hummingbird pro cutaway serial number 13445012 read more
