I took it to the store today and Robbie took an entire set of tuning pegs off a broken headstock and replaced the three tuners. Considering the circumstances, I applaud Robbie for his assistance and professionalism. Now, the bad. I called multiple times and sent an email hoping to resolve this problem without having to go to their physical store location (this is why I ordered online). Unable to speak with anyone, I felt it necessary to to go to their physical location. I asked Robbie if there was some way he could compensate me for my time and trouble. He declined saying that he could not authorize any compensation. My expectation would have been a free t-shirt, or maybe a set of strings, perhaps a few guitar picks, a discount on a future purchase - a small item of nominal value to their organization to keep a customer happy. Meh, it didn't happen. Probably won't do business here again. Oh, as an aside, this store is not open Saturday or Sunday...that makes it difficult for me to make it to this location during the week with traffic and where I work. I left work early to get to their location today.

I phoned Wally the prior week to see if this was something they could take care of. He was so awesome and told me to bring the uke with me. The setup was perfect as I knew the saddle and nut needed some help for correct intonation, also adding a low G string. The service was superfast and much less expensive than I thought it would be. I am so pleased that I found Wally and would highly recommend his services to anyone. Thank You

I highly recommend this store. It's the kind of service you just don't get anymore. Everyone there really cares. Go there before any other big box stores. You'll thank me later.

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.

He assembled a team of very experienced people to evaluate and authenticate my vintage 1951 Telecaster. His professionalism and integrity are unmatched in the field of vintage guitar sales in my experience. He and his sales team were able to obtain a very generous price for the instrument which, even after commission, netted a larger figure than I would have been able to obtain on my own. Payment to me was slightly delayed, but worth the wait! I recommend Malibu Music highly and without reservation. Geoffrey Day
