Luckily, Jason had one that had just come in on consignment. He and Dale took all the time I needed to demonstrate what an improvement in the sound the twelve-string could make (I am not a musician), and answered all of my questions. Jason restrung it and made sure it was in perfect shape for a gift within my budget, and it was the favorite Christmas present, once again! This is a professional shop and the staff are knowledgeable, patient and good at explaining pros and cons of instrument options. Exceptional personalized service.

Mark is not out to sell you anything. He just wants to know that you love and appreciate music no matter the instrument you may play. I had never considered looking at a ukulele but he asked me if I had a moment and I did. We sat down in his side room and he explained how a ukulele is like a guitar with a slightly different tuning. He gave it to me to experiment. He said, "It can be a blessing in heavy traffic because it's small enough that you can keep it next to you and play unlike a guitar". We talked about music as a means of universal communication. We talked about opera and Latin. We talked about high school. It was obvious that the customer before me had the same experience. The customer after me said he was returning from England because he had had the same experience! I don't think I will ever go in a Guitar Center again! I will drive 50 miles to get Mark's opinion. Mark is very knowledgeable and is an absolutely awesome human being! He is truly one in a million!

After my initial inquiry, the store manager reached out to get me the exact instrument with the best price possible. - This store sold me the instrument at $150 less than the other stores in this part of the US, including online. - It provided a great coupon that other stores don't, this store has good coupons, especially during Winter Holidays. - It took me 5 years to save up for this instrument -- Glad I trusted this store with my decision and purchase. - The instrument that I got is rare - this store got it. - My instrument arrived fast in mint condition -- straight from the factory, made of high quality wood and material, and plays so well, I couldn't be happier. The store, its manager Chris, and staff team work for you AND with you. This is a traditional, local business individual care with professionalism that is hard to find. After 5 years of planning this purchase, my new instrument means a lot to me. Major thank you and appreciation to Chris and the music store for making it possible, you made all the difference! Keep on playing on
