For years I shopped at NO music exchange before it closed, and was left without a place to get what I needed.

Well, Sheryl and the gang at Uptown Music Exchange have taken up that torch of offering a fantastic experience and support for local musicians. What really makes them stand out is that they are the only place in town still offering instrument repairs IN HOUSE.

And they are all locally owned and operated. What more could you ask for?

I've never felt like I've been taken advantage of, and they've always helped me out when I've needed it. I want to just say a big thank you to guitar center for all the years of great service. It means a lot. I recently purchased an amp and had an issue with it and Dylan the store manager without question took care of the issue. I can't state enough how professional the guys at the store were. They made a rough situation easy, which goes a long way in my book. Thank you.

And there it is...My 1969 Martin D-28...after months of restoration. The last time I had played…read morethis guitar I was 20 years old and it was broken and missing for 43 years...then yesterday I picked it up again...the first thing I noticed was how heavy and thick the body was compared to contemporary guitars...how deep and red the now extinct Brazilian rosewood was and how most all of the shiny surface lacquer finish was gone. Then there were the first two digs I put on it when I was 16. I sat down and strummed a chord and then another and then just started playing intuitively. The instrument was perfectly tuned and the sound resonating from the aged woods was symphonic. No buzzes, no fret noise, none! The intonation, string height and the full overall feel was perfect. Wow, I got my guitar back and it is still in tune. Thanks, Mike...and Todd's Music Express.

This involved cleaning all reeds, re-glueing split wood, repairing stuck buttons, patching small holes in the bellows, fixing stuck/slow buttons and a complete tuning.

Highly recommended!

My needs for this snare was unique and specific and Marc was amazing throughout the ordering and build. My snare was delivered a bit earlier than promised and I must say, it is a work of art.

While I am a classically trained vocalist, I worked for many years as a Gospel choir director, and I enjoy working with students on a wide range of styles including pop, folk, jazz, Broadway, etc. I have a special affinity for working with beginners and first time singers, as I enjoy the process of helping people discover what their voices can do. I also love partnering with established singers to troubleshoot vocal challenges that come up over the course of their performing careers. I am open to students of any age, and I am a firm believer that everyone can sing!
