I understand the employees are busy, and that it's a pawn shop, but the last two times I've been there, no one was in the shop and the two guys there weren't on the phone and didn't even acknowledge me when I walked in. One guy by the front kind of gave me a weird look and didn't even say hello. I don't need some jolly fellow to loudly greet me and talk my ear off. But a simple acknowledgment that I'm there and a quick "Hey, welcome to our shop, let me know if I can answer any questions" goes a long way. Cool shop, bad customer service.

I need to have tuners replaced, but now I will also have the new pick guard replaced too. I won't have them do it. It cost $410.

The owner (I assume) is very knowledgeable and so friendly! I didn't bring any earmuffs with me to Denver, so I ended up buying one of the handmade (in Nepal) fleece-lined wool beanie animal hats. I do not wear hats, but I was desperate. It is the warmest hat I've ever worn, AND the fleece lining does not flatten my curls!! I got the lion beanie and want to wear it everywhere I go because it (mainly the lion's mane) brings me such joy. I can't tell whether the animal beanies are intended for children or not, but they fit adult heads -- the ear flaps (with attached tails!) make the beanie a bit wide so it doesn't totally ruin your hair day. I also bought a rastafarian animal beanie for my parents back in KC. I'm making my boyfriend go to the store with me once more before we leave Denver so I can buy at least five more beanies. They are truly so soft and warm (and less than $20!). I want one to go with every coat, and I'm going to get a few for my friends -- they may think they look a bit childish, but they won't care once they wear them.

We rented my 4th grader's clarinet from Golden Music this school year for about $42 per month. When…read morewe were given a working hand-me-down clarinet from a friend, we returned the rental and asked Golden Music about having the other clarinet checked over. I was surprised to learn that Golden Music wanted $25 just to look at the instrument and tell me what repairs it might need. Even before a full evaluation, I was told it likely needed between $600 and $800 worth of work, but I would have to pay the $25 fee to find out exactly what was needed. I also asked what it would cost to purchase the rental clarinet we had been using and was quoted $587. At $42 per month, we had already paid approximately $378 in rental fees, so purchasing the instrument would have brought our total cost to nearly $1,000 for a student clarinet, even with the "buy it now" discount. I was also told that if we stopped renting over the summer, we would lose any credit toward purchasing the instrument, which felt unnecessarily pressure-filled. Something about the experience didn't sit right with me, so I decided to get a second opinion. I called around and took the clarinet to Flesher-Hinton Music in Wheat Ridge. They looked at it for free and told me that not all of the corks and pads needed to be replaced. Instead, they recommended a cleaning and replacing one cork joint, with a total estimate of $95. The difference between the two assessments was significant. Based on my experience, I strongly encourage parents to get a second opinion before agreeing to major repair work. Flesher-Hinton was knowledgeable, helpful, and transparent about what the instrument actually needed. I won't be returning to Golden Music and would not recommend them based on my experience.

I started my son Alexander who has a IEP in school and is on the spectrum (special needs) when he was 8years old playing ukelele. He since has continued playing uke and over the past 4 years has been taking lessons for piano to get ready for his next year marching band audition for Cherry Creek High School! He had held a A+in his middle school band all through 6th, 7th, and now 8th grade he's way ahead of his peers in so many areas of music. Fast forward to 2 years ago our oldest son wanted to audition and compete for first chair trumpet in his band class as a junior in high school at cherry creek high school. He felt he maxxed out with where he was at and needed that extra push and tutoring to acheive more. He asked me to sign him up for private trumpet lessons this past summer. Here we are in September of same year and after a summer of private lessons he auditioned and made FIRST CHAIR TRUMPET in his band class and for Cherry Creek Marching Band !!! (Did I mention CCHS ranked #1 for welcome week and in 5A tournament )!!! Wendy&Dale are the best ! All the instructors they hire are top notch and our invested in their students to succeed and not just in music but the why behind music , their self esteem, and technical skills that go along with it. I could t be more blessed to have found this school for my children. I have two other kids that will also play music this year. One more trumpet and one more piano or drums!!! This school has an amazing g new facility that they are in the process of moving into because they grew out of their old one ! They are so humble but I feel like if there is anyone out there that is looking for a true music school who will help their child learn music, love music appreciate music and embrace music this has to be the school they enroll in!!! Thank you CMI for all you have done and continue to do !! Congratulations on your award for National Music School of the Year!!!!!!!!
