The sales associate who helped us, Cody, was knowledgeable and friendly. Cody showed us what was available in the style and price range we were looking for, and he was able to answer questions and give me a brief technical demonstration on the built-in tuner and pre-amp. At no time did I feel pressured or intimidated, and this was literally the first time I had ever even held a guitar. We came in to look but ended up purchasing a guitar, case, and protection plan, and I felt really good about my first guitar purchase.

I first walked in years ago to check out what they had regarding drums, cymbals, sticks, and other drum gear! I met Zak, and we bonded right away! We talked about his bass playing, my favorite band Rush, and he showed me around the store! They actually stock one of my favorite and most used brand of drumsticks. (Zildjian Dennis Chambers Artist Model) Small neighborhood music stores teach, instruct, and provide music knowledge to us all! I recently found that the snare drum stand at my church was broken, a day before my Sunday morning Praise and Worship Session! Zak was there, and had exactly what I needed. Kudos to Zak and the staff at Music and Arts on Midlothian Turnpike!! Check them out!! John Futrell

Not sure where to begin on this. They can do the school and my kid wanted a drum set. It seemed…read moreeasier to pay the full amount rather than make payments. That was the easy part. But now they are billing me for the same item I paid for. And I have a receipt for payment. Apparently that's not good enough for them. They sent it to a collection agency, who offered to settle the matter for the same money that was already paid. Talk about a way to sour what should be a positive experience for youngsters. Avoid these crooks

We honestly didn't know what to expect and didn't know if they could play a song together. The staff at Bach to Rock were super nice and helped everyone learn their part. The kids were so happy they did play and sing. And they were all happy with their take away gifts and CDs. I heard from several parents their kids kept listening to their cds and wanted to take lessons for their particular instrument. Thank you for making this such a happy and memorable experience!

My first experience at Wholesale Guitars was renting a trumpet for my rising 6th grader last summer. I was so impressed that Steve took the time to make eye contact with my daughter and carefully explained the seriousness of the responsibility of caring for an instrument. Then, when we returned her trumpet this summer (my daughter was ready to try something else), we signed her up for weekly guitar lessons. The lessons are very affordable and her evening class worked perfectly with my work schedule. I COULD NOT BE MORE HAPPY that Steve is teaching guitar to my daughter. Without getting too personal, I will say this - I believe this incredibly talented, sensitive, generous professional young man would be an excellent teacher for ANY child or adult. Anyone who has the opportunity to study here will be better for it!
