I learned that Martin had released a new mahogany guitar (the D-17) and I really wanted to play one…read moreto see if I might want to trade one of my Martins to buy one, or perhaps even buy one outright. I found out there was one in the area, located at Reno's Music. I had never heard of this establishment before but I saw on their website that they have a lot of Martin guitars in their inventory. So when my husband and I were in the general neighborhood, we decided to stop in and have a look. This turned out to be a really bad idea. I have been playing guitar for 55 years and my husband also for nearly as long. My father was an Indianapolis jazz guitarist who will be inducted into the Indianapolis Jazz Hall Of Fame in 2026. I have been visiting guitar stores since I was a little girl, and never have I been treated so rudely EVER. There was one guy working there, and zero customers. Most guitar shops are lively, upbeat places filled with music but this was basically an office with a storeroom of what looked to be a zillion boxed-up guitars. I asked this person if he had a D-17 because I was interested in playing one. He launched into this gatekeeper routine that would have made my father laugh with scorn and then turn around and head straight out the door. This guy said, "First we're going to have a little conversation". What??? I thought this was a business and I just wanted to see a guitar! He wanted to know our names. I thought wtf? Our names won't mean anything to you? But I gave them, first and last, and then he replied that his name was Mark. Okay fine, whatever. Do you play? he wanted to know. Okay, why would I even be in a place like that if I didn't play? I was playing before this guy was even thought of! Well, after I replied yes, we both do, he condescended to let me try the guitar. It was a very nice guitar but I had already made up my mind that I would not be buying a $1 kazoo off this guy. I played one more guitar there and we left. Needless to say, I will take my money and my business elsewhere. I am still in the market for a high-end Martin but thankfully there are many other guitar stores in the Indianapolis area that are far more welcoming and treat their customers like they want their business - NOT like they are doing them some kind of a favor just letting them in the door. I've seen other reviews left by people who had much the same experience with Reno's Music, so it wasn't just us, it's how this place is, unfortunately.

I've been shopping at Reno's for almost 30 years across 4 locations. In the last 15 years they…read morehave really cemented themselves as the best acoustic guitar shop in Indy, and easily one of the best Martin dealers in the Midwest and online. Mark is a great dude who is genuine and makes a real connection with folks. We nerd out on guitars and fiddle tunes and whatnot, and there's never any pressure, but he's also been attentive to what I've been searching for as a player. When the CEO-7's first came out and couldn't be found, he gave me a buzz and said "This one has something, no rush, I'll keep it in the back until you get a chance to swing by." It's the only time he's ever called direct on a specific guitar and I'm so glad he did. It's still my #1 acoustic. Cut to a few years later and I was wanting to buy a custom Martin changing the specs of an existing model. Mark got me around 10 quotes across 3 years as I considered what I wanted to do before I was ready to pull the trigger. Never any pressure, always just "That sounds awesome, let's see what they say!" I bought that guitar, then it was delayed at the start of the Pandemic. Mark stayed in touch with updates and when it finally arrived, had me in safely to the shop on my own as we had a 4 week old daughter on top of it all. Years later as that guitar needed a neck reset from the Factory, Mark helped me get all of the planning set to drop it off as I passed through PA. Cut to a few years later and as I finished my PhD in music technology I wanted to finally get a 12-fret Martin. Again, several months of another 7-10 quotes before I was ready to pick the right one. As he was on a trip to the factory per my request he sent me photos of Wild Grain Indian Rosewood and Swiss Spruce options. Ordered and waited. When the guitar arrived, we pulled it out of the box and the lightest picking was beautiful...but if I dug in things weren't right. Mark got out the straight-edge and we found that the neck was underset. I don't view this as any reflection on Mark or Martin really, just a dumb luck thing to have happen twice. He let me make decisions about the next steps to take, but did all of the work for contacting the factory and navigated all the steps necessary of having the replacement parts selected and built. On top of all of that, he takes the best pictures, runs a great website, and is the first place I would send anyone within 300 miles that was looking for a new Martin (and other acoustics as well). My 2 custom orders are not at the high end of the range, they're really just small changes to existing platforms, but Mark has always treated me with great respect and kindness. With the Eastman and Bourgeois options in the store, I'd say that for anyone looking for their first great acoustic, their ultimate, or anything in between, this is the place. I couldn't tell you how many guitars I've played in the shop, but I'd guess I'm getting close to 100. I remember a few I should have bought, but mostly I think about the good times just hanging out, marveling at these wonderful instruments that bring so much joy to our lives. I'm extremely grateful to have a place like Reno's that I know on any given afternoon I could swing by, see and play something really cool, and have a great chat.

Get yourself and all your relatives enrolled at this place. Adults or kids- doesn't matter. You won't regret it! The staff is tons of fun and really know their stuff. The Rock Band program is awesome and a genius way to keep kids learning and growing. If you're not sure about it, just go to a performance; you will see these kids transform. The confidence these guys inspire in their students is amazing, and anyone who has had to get on stage and perform can recognize the enormity of that feat. The kids also get some bonus lessons in accountability and responsibility to each other and the band, plus relationships that could forge the next Top 100 band. Add to that they are very professional, reliable, and reasonably priced- a trifecta you don't usually find in the musician crowd- there's really no excuse for you not enrolling here right now. I am an adult student myself; a hobbyist in recording looking to fill in some of the foundational gaps. Co-owner Ryan has generously let me set my own curriculum; bring in my own mixes and work on whatever issue I am encountering that week. My mixes are sounding 100% better and I have learned all kinds of tricks I would have never found in the books or online tutorials. They have all kinds of top-tier gear in there and the know-how to use it; everything I have heard tracked or mixed in their studio has sounded super clean and ready for some professional mastering. This place is the real deal and has something for everyone- I can't say enough nice things about it. Give them a call and chat with one of the owners on the phone. Your inner rockstar will be so happy you did it!
