He took the time to fix the strings, supply new rosin for me, and tune the cello for me. He also made time to access my Dad's guitar to see if it was sellable or just something to donate. Very patient and friendly person. You never feel like he's rushed for time. Will definitely be back!!

Quite honestly, I'm writing this review because I have just recently received my guitar back from Corey (one of the owners) who restored my damaged fretboard with a much better Tusq nut to boot and upgraded the pickups and all electric switches/jack hot-rodding my first ever guitar an Epi special. I happened to be in the shop (as I usually am- Great place to check out new gear and play some awesome instruments), and seen he treated with the care and skill he would one of the more expensive guitars and at a great price!! I am in love with this instrument again and have not put it down, he showed me his wiring and it was top-notch; I am absolutely blown away at the quality of his craftsmanship and the tones coming out this guitar. All that being said I also have two children taking instruction there and they love it. The instructors meet them at their level but continually challenge them. My wife and I are quite happy with how the children have been improving and how happy they are with their instructors. Their prices are better than most places and the instruction is great. I have also have had the opportunity to go the monthly jam night they host and it was a great time. All in all, Martel's is a great place to be and shop for your music needs in my humble opinion.

Yes, very professional and accommodating. I'm looking forward to starting my lessons next week!read more

They should change the name of hhis place from "Just Guitars" to "Just Lost Business"…read more If you're a true guitarist and want to test the limits of the guitar you're going to buy, go somewhere else. I just tried to raise the volume a little and the owner told me to turn it down. He did not help me out at all. I got assistance from another customer. A lot of people told Jimi Hendrix and Slash to turn it down too. This guy goes against everything Rock stands for.

The place is kind of hidden, pretty dusty and cluttered. The owner is nice but took 10 minutes to…read moretalk to us. Decent selection of guitars and strings. I didnt realize until afterwards that the package of strings I bought had been opened previously. Concerning, but I assumed it was just damaged at some point. It turns out that those strings were defective, as they began to unwind shortly after I began using them. I'm unsure if I would return, hopefully he cleans up the place and restocks his strings.
