They seem to specialize in contemporary instruments like guitars, but they had quite a range of band instruments and band equipment. I will definitely come back here for clarinet supplies, which at a glance were generally much cheaper than Amazon. In addition to these items, they offer lessons, one of which I snuck a peek (listen) to. They had a nice set-up with a sitting area, which guardians can sit at while their child has their lesson. The last feature I really appreciated on the way out was a large bulletin board, full of flyers - local music events/concerts, inquiries to join a band, etc. It was a nice way to get a taste of Columbus's music community and opportunities!

After driving by this place out on Refugee Road a few times, I finally stopped in. I figured that…read morewith a tough name like Junkdude Music, the store had to sell something rad -- crusty old guitars, homemade amplifiers and the like. I was disappointed to find that the store actually only sells saxophones and other woodwind instruments. As I understand it, though, the shop deals mostly in vintage saxophones. That makes this place hard to beat if you're into that sort of thing. The owner told me that folks like me stop in all of the time -- people looking for stringed instruments. So just for us guitar geeks, Junkdude carries a small selection of guitar strings. No guitars, just strings. I felt embarrassed and bought some.

I've never played a string instrument before but had my heart set on learning the banjo. As a young…read morewoman of color, I was a bit nervous that I wouldn't fit into this store or be taken seriously without over-explaining myself and where I'm from. (Sadly have this experience very frequently where I'm from in bluegrass country.) But as soon as I walked in, I felt like I was in my pawpaw's garage, full of passion projects and home. John said, "If you can't find something... I'm sure I can't either. But holler anyway." All the pictures you'll find on Yelp are pretty much the whole store. You open the house door almost directly in front of the register, and all the merchandise is in the front and along one side. It's tiny but packed. This store has decades of stock and love in it. There are a ton of music books ranging from beginner to pro for all different styles, not just bluegrass. As John recommended, it's great to just flip through the books to see which style of writing and teaching makes the most sense to you. I picked out the cheapest open-back banjo, and John never tried to upsell me. In fact, he told me all the great things about the instrument I'd picked and walked me through the basics of the style I wanted to learn and even other ones in case I changed my mind. (Which I did lol.) This was all without me having to ask, with genuine excitement. He put so much care and attention into making sure the instrument and I were prepared. It's almost a month later, and I couldn't be happier with my purchase and experience. I will definitely be back for more supplies and recommend to anyone else looking for an instrument or supplies. I'm so grateful this is here in Columbus :)
