Accidentally walked past the entrance while looking for it and an employee came outside to call me…read moreover which I'm very thankful for! I called beforehand and they were very professional. They replaced my guitar strings in no time and now my guitar sounds amazing again. The staff was very nice and the shop was well kept and hospitable.

Every time I visit this place, it just gets better…read more First, their selection keeps expanding. As a Gibson and Orange lover, I am in heaven walking into this place. Decent selection of used stuff as well (was sad to NOT see the Ibanez lawsuit les paul rip off in there this last time, but hope that means it sold!). By far the best atmosphere of any music shop in town. Has a very "Chicago Music Exchange" vibe, with couches and chairs set up in classy little arrangements, wood floors, and bare brick walls. It definitely has the feel of a higher end boutique shop, which is cool. Contrast that with the fact that the staff is extremely unpretentious, affable, and inviting. Everytime I've been in there, the employees have repeatedly asked if I want to play anything (which... yes, I want to play everything). Short haired blond lady, small shaved head guy, and taller brown haired guy all just seem completely approachable and like they're as happy to talk shop as I am. Love the staff there. Overall, this is a shop that I hope sticks around. I will definitely be making the effort to abstain from the online giants in favor of supporting these guys.

It is ALMOST nice having a local music shop. But I'll start with the positives…read more.. The staff are friendly and helpful, and there is a nice selection of merchandise. Music lessons are available, and the place definitely has the character associated with small, local businesses. Unfortunately, none of the aforementioned things are very useful to me. Wabash Music suffers from unusual and unreliable business hours. There is a sign on the door that says something about opening at approximately 2:30 PM. Numerous times, I have found the store closed at this time, and even later. Fifteen or twenty minutes past opening time, and I'm out of patience. Purchasing guitar picks at Wal-Mart? Yeah, it's come to that before... The evening hours may be good for some, but the afternoon is night time for 3rd shift workers like myself and many others. The hours are very inconvenient, even when the store is actually open at the posted times. I've traveled to McGuire Music in Lafayette more than once because it is more convenient, in spite of the long drive.

The owners here are really friendly and will order anything you are looking for. They also teach…read moreguitar and I believe a few other instruments. This is a great small-town music instrument and supply store and if you are musically inclined in Cville, well, you are probably already using them.

My Daughter & I popped into the store on a whim on February 21st, 2026. The store looks quite a bit…read moredifferent than when I last saw it 5 years ago. There was a varied selection of instruments, but we spent all of our time this time looking at the electric guitars. We were quickly greeted by their tech, Derrick, and another salesman that made frequent check-ins to see how things were going. Derrick did tell me that their selection of guitars had recently gone up quite a bit. We ended up making an unplanned guitar purchase and we left happy. I saw the old reviews, and I would suggest that people give The Music Shoppe another look because things change, sometimes for the better.

Top notch customer service and great selection at good prices…read more My daughter plays trumpet and has been taking lessons with Chris Moors at the Music Shoppe for a couple years now - it's really paid off and we've seen her develop her skills and perform with confidence in band and in jazz band! Every time we visit the shop for something or need help with her trumpet they have the parts and service that we need - a couple years ago I lost a small important part for the trumpet and when we went to the store to ask for help they went above and beyond and gave us the part we needed for free. We didn't even buy her trumpet there so this was awesome customer service. They carry a complete selection of musical instruments, sheet music, accessories, and offer music lessons for all ages of students. I highly recommend this store!

This week, they stepped up big time with a last minute rescue on a sizing error of mine with my kids cello. The communication from them has always been excellent.
