Located in the st Mathews area of Louisville guitar center is a massive store that sells as the…read morestore name suggest "guitars". My oldest was wanting a guitar of any sort for Christmas this last holiday season. My wife or me neither have a musical bone in our bodies and have never played an instrument. So we were kinda lost in the sauce on what to do here. We walked in and was greeted immediately. We explained our situation and got some advice on acoustic vs electric for forts time learners. After getting some great advice and help the worker showed us some recommended guitars that fell inside the budget range we gave him. We wanted to get her a nice guitar but didn't want to get the nicest just in case it was just a teenage faze and became a Giant paper weight. After looking at a few options we picked out a beatific looking acoustic guitar. The tremendous customer service continued after that as the worker gave us advice on getting her started with tuner apps, etc etc. mainly stuff that confused a music novice like me but it was appreciated either way. She loved her gift. We have slacked and drug our feet a bit as we haven't gotten her lessons yet. But we will soon. They actually offer lessons up there and have a huge studio on site for it. It seems like the pricing for the studio lessons is roughly about a $1 per minute. Overall cool experience that ended up being a cool and memorable Christmas present.

They can source teachers for you who can provide a variety of lessons on the instrument of your choice. There are electric guitars and especially dulcimers for sale. I stopped in the other day to see what kind of dulcimers they had. I have some friends that play the dulcimer and they have been trying to get me interested and to start playing with them. They have a nice selection so I will definitely go back when I decide if I want to start playing.

When we first moved to Kentucky from California my daughter was excited because she was going to be…read moreable to take band. (Our CA school district had already cut out band, art, theater, etc.) Our first interaction with Mel Owen Music was to rent a flute for our daughters use with the option to purchase it at the end of the year. Daughter loved the flute and instrument was purchased at the end of the lease. Fast forward several years to High School Marching Band with that same flute. Somehow, whether it was sat on or warped when the intruments got soaked in a torential rain storm the flute had a slight bow in it. We took it to Mel Owens and they were able to straighten it, changed all the pads and serviced it as if it were a new instrument again. Fast forward again... Our daughter wanted a piccolo for her December birthday. We knew just where to go. Mel Owens of course! That piccolo was quite the hit and our daughter will always remember her birthday was kept separate from Christmas with such a special gift.

And considering the times, they do a really nice job with keeping everyone safe by offering curbside service only, keeping their distance, and giving a wet wipe to clean your hands and your merchandise to make sure you do not get sick. They also use hospital grade disinfectants on anything that they give you and may need back. I highly recommend this music store to any musician in need of instrument service or repair. In my opinion they are the best in town.

It's a good place to shop for gear, but you need to look closely and have a decent knowledge of the…read moregear you are seeking. Some examples, I recently looked at a Peavey 2x12 stereo chorus amp from the 1970's. The problem was that it was listed as that a 2x12... but it had been changed to a 1x12. This was apparently not caught when inspected and priced. Several times items are advertised as 1 model but are in reality another. Often the speaker size in amplifiers are wrong and the model of some guitars are incorrect. Take what's advertised with caution. Still, there are some good deals if you watch closely.

He never moved off the stool. He seemed aggravated and said they stop buying gear an hour before closing. I explained about the drive. He asked what I had, and told me that people aren't buying the gear I was selling. Never even offered to look at it. I also asked about selling a Zoom R16 recorder. He said it would be cheap. Obviously didn't want to move off of his stool to even take a look. There wasn't a single person in line, and only a handful of folks in store looking around. Do yourself favor, and avoid this place and buy/sell your gear online from someone that appreciates your business. I didn't want cash. I would have either took an in store credit or just traded for drum gear, but I never was asked any of that.
