This is the best music store. Not only for the variety of great quality instruments that they…read moreoffer but also because of the level of knowledge and service provided. My girls take guitar lessons here and I am amazed at how quickly they have learned and begun to continually play new music. They take it to the next level at this store by teaching the kids not only music, but also the importance of making good grades at school (this is a stipulation for continuing lessons), the importance of serving our community, and just everyday great values that will help them grow into great human beings:). Music is their way of life at this business, so if u want a place to go where u can get great quality instruments and service, this place is the best choice.

In response to the guy who was upset about Music Matters not holding a record for him on Record…read moreStore Day - I too called Music Matters to request that they hold a Record Store Day (RSD) single for me and then mail it, but they explained to me that their RSD contract stated that they could not hold records, and that they would lose the right to get RSD limited edition records if they did. So, as much as I wanted that single, I completely understood their policy. I know now I have to drive to St. Augustine to wait in line! I want to say something else about Music Matters. In an age where record stores are becoming extinct, and online retail overwhelms, Music Matters is not just a music "shop," it is a cool, friendly place to hang out, with people who are knowledgeable, and care about you finding that one record you have been looking for, or turning you on to new music in a favorite genre that you didn't even know about, something that you cannot experience with a computer (sorry Siri). And where else can you immediately buy the music you were jonesing for? Even Amazon hasn't come up with immediate gratification delivery! Check this store out!

Stopped in here after a disappointing visit to another record store in the area…read more We were only there for a short time but a couple of observations led to my 4 star review. 1) the staff was going through a large amount of records right near the front door. I'm not saying that's a negative, it's actually quite a positive. Even through the 3 of them were going through a big collection, they still stopped to help us. The only reason I didn't give this place 5 stars is because of how I personally shop for records. I'm not what you'd call a crate digger. If you are, then you'll love this place. I know there are many, many crate diggers out there. Just wanted to mention it not being my style in case anyone else wanted to know what to expect. We picked up a couple of records while we were there, so it was a good visit. It helped make up for the other place in town that we stopped first.

He paid attention to what my daughter needed and explained everything in detail, providing suggestions for her. He picked up her guitar and played some superb fast finger work! As testimony to his passion, before we left, he was excited to show us an 80s Les Paul Deluxe that he just bought for himself. It was sharp! It was less of a shopping experience and more just "hanging out" with Andrew. This is called a music center, but they are a guitar shop. I didn't see any other instruments inside. They are a cozy shop located on Hwy80 on the "old" side of Pooler. Downbeat Music Center is an orange amp dealer. Andrew is really excited about them, and proud to be be a dealer. They have instructors that offer guitar lessons. He said he has honed into a set of high quality instructors. We came in for a new set of strings on my daughter's acoustic guitar. Andrew strung them, cleaned the guitar and straightened the neck for us...all while we waited. I am not a guitar person so this level of service was perfect to help keep my daughter's guitar in tip-top shape. The work-while-you-wait strategy is dangerous as we walked out with a new (used) electric guitar. My daughter just fell in love with it! They have a good selection of both new and used guitars. The main room you enter is filled with electric guitars. The back room is filled with their acoustic guitars. I'd highly recommend this place if you are looking for a a guitar shop. They provide friendly, expert service. This isn't just a job, they are serving you because of their passion for guitars.
