DISGUSTED. I drove out to Brooklyn only to find this place no longer exists as advertised . The…read morewebsite boasts "one of the largest inventories IN THE WORLD"; in fact it is an empty store front, with a "for rent" sign in the window, and a small sign indicating that they moved around the corner (mind you, the Google Maps image shows the open store as advertised, so no reason to question it). The space around the corner is a one story storefront music school. The "Street Sounds" part of the space consists of a small desk with a computer and a telephone and some business cards. I was told the Street Sounds proprietor (Rocky) is usually in by 1pm; it was already past 1:30 when I left a voicemail on the number on the business card, and waited another 10 minutes in case he just went to get coffee or something. He never called back. The least they could do was update the site to alert people to the change, but they obviously do not care. Beyond unacceptable!

I called this place at 3:09pm on a Saturday wanting to ensure the hours listed on Yelp stating they…read morewould be open until 4pm was accurate.

I wanted to support my local small business but they didn't care enough to at least keep their doors open!

We all know what guitar center is. It's big, it's corporate, and employees range from knowledgeable…read moresaints to miserable slags who are constantly questioning what they did to deserve their lot in life. To be fair I'd be miserable too if I had to deal with the idiots that wander in to this place on an hourly basis, having to listen to dudes play butt rock blues riffs from sun up to sundown. However GC is good for picking up basic supplies, and great if you want a simple set up for your guitar. The repair team at this location is supremely helpful, and above all else accessible. Most experienced luthiers in the neighborhood act like you should kiss their feet for gracing you with their presence, only working three days a week (if they feel like it) and charging outrageous hourly fees. Guitar Center is affordable and always there. That's something I appreciate.

Today after flagging down three people to simply get a pedal out of a case I gave up after half an hour. On two previous occasions things they listed as having in stock they couldn't find. This is why companies like Sweetwater will continue to take over more of the market... All my orders have arrived within 36 hours from Sweetwater. They've been great with returns and you can get a sales person to notice you exist on the phone. It's too bad what's happened to Guitar Center?

Lessons are in separate rooms in kind and friendly environment. Miss Olga front the front desk is always polite and accommodating. We often change our schedule and it's never a problem to switch things around. We love participating in school's recitals which showcase your child's progress in learning but you can also watch other talented children. Miss Natalia always has a beautiful rose for each child. The most thoughtful and beautiful gift. I highly recommend Music Box School because I'm happy and satisfied with their services.

I lived near Slope Music, went in for an audition (was pegged as a beginner) and started taking lessons with Vita Sibirsky. What a revelation!! She taught me that my love for music could be translated into my fingers on a piano and that it could be fun not torture to play music. Her love for music and her desire for me to feel confident about my ability made it an absolute pleasure to learn the piano again. Plus, she taught me music theory all the while in a way that made it really clear. Thank you Vita for showing me that having fun playing an instrument is real.

For quite a while, the dishwasher at my mother's house has not been cleaning efficiently. It has…read morebeen repaired a few times, with the last technician saying that if it "happens again, a new dishwasher would be necessary." Welp. So my sister and I decided to just buy a new one, so it would work correctly without worry, and we could keep our sanity during a tough period. A little background here - all siblings and SO have been staying at my mom's since she is deteriorating rather quickly. It is a very stressful time and we just didn't feel like continuing to deal with an easily solved issue. I called PC Richards, since it's been around forever and Ive shopped successfully before. I fist spoke to Alex, who was great and suggested I look on their website to see what I may prefer, and to call back with some choices. When I picked a couple and called again, Mr B answered the phone, and we spoke extensively about each machine's pros/cons. Mr B was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. He told me he has been with the store for a very long time, starting as a stock boy. He is now a manager and a pure pleasure. I said to him "I can give you a whole sob story, but I wont. But please know, we need this before Sunday". He never batted an eye. This was on.a Tuesday, with the July 4th weekend approaching (yes, I am THAT person!). Essentially, it had to be delivered that Friday due to the approaching holiday. Mr B said he could "call a friend" (I got a guy) that could possibly make delivery happen, but he would make no promises. Ok! I put a deposit on a JennAir at an awesome price. The next day I received a text saying that my appliance was ready for delivery and to call to schedule. Yippeee! I called the store back (Thursday) and spoke to Mike, who told me I was scheduled for the following Tuesday. Uh oh !! We REALLY needed/wanted/would make life easier with a Fri delivery (really , Im not being difficult, there are reasons, just not going to get into it here). He said he would make a call. Next thing I know, Mr B calls (who was not supposed to be at work on that day) from the store to discuss delivery. When I expressed my surprise hearing from him on his day off, he said he just wanted to take care of the issue. He then told me that he could not get me delivery until Tuesday. Obviously, I was disappointed but he had told me it was a longshot with such short notice. Ok, we will make it work. Mr B truly had no idea of our issues and his efforts were not unnoticed. Next thing I know, he called me back 10 minutes later telling me Fri delivery was set! Wowza! I wanted to jump through the phone and hug him! I am quite sure he does not know our "sob story" as I never got into it, but he succeeded in making my day better (as I was sitting in my therapist's office, lol.) So thank you Alex, Mike, and especially Mr B - y'all removed one stupid PIA issue during a time that our household is preparing for the sad inevitable. We appreciate you guys so much!

They're giving me the run around, the store it came from says they can't help me, they won't respond to customer service emails, I called headquarters and they said they would call me back to set up a pick up, they never called. The policy on their website says they're supposed to pick up any local or freight delivery if it's reported within 2 days, which I did report it. I learned they send people defective merchandise and then give you the runaround so you'll end up having to deal with the manufacturer directly.
