Rochester Pro Music is your typical local music store…read more They have a good number of electric, acoustic and bass guitars from common brands like Fender, Ibanez, Les Paul, etc... As well as a good selection of pedals and amps. As would be expected, they also sell PA equipment, drums and mixers, as well as a pretty hefty selection of used gear. The store also has six (I believe) teaching rooms, and a number of guitar and bass teachers. My former guitar teacher is now working there. As expected, they do repairs on musical equipment. There are a couple of reasons I am giving them four stars instead of five: 1)Their pricing isn't too competitive. 2)The owner does not like "random jamming" on the guitars, because they wear on them a bit. While this is a perfectly valid point, every other music shop I've been to will let anybody borrow a cable and pick and play with their guitars whenever they want. Why? Because they'll buy sooner or later. 3)The brother of one of my neighbors bought a Les Paul guitar there, and brought it in for service on something that was under warranty, and they would not honor the warranty. While I certainly don't know the whole situation, it's still something to consider.

Brian is, hands-down, the best guitar repair tech in the state. If I had a vintage guitar, he's the…read moreonly tech I know within 500 miles who I'd want to work on it. He is also an excellent electronic tech and is willing to tackle repair jobs any sane person would run from without looking back once. He is hyper-honest and will tell you when your equipment isn't worth the repair investment (which often is far lower than the emotional value you may have invested in the instrument). I've been going to Tree Strings since I moved to Red Wing in 2015 and am a little embarrassed that I haven't done a review before this. Sorry, Brian.

Mr. Stewart, owner of Tree Strings has built a wonderful guitar shop.

If he can't fix it, or, your repair exceeds the value, whatever the issue, Brian is very honest and the best Luthier I've been to in 50 years of playing guitar. He always has a great selection of used guitars, basses, amps, pedals, you name it. Definitely worth the road trip down to Red Wing.

I've purchased a few bass guitars from Brickhouse with my most recent being an Order-Option G&L. Tom was insanely helpful through the process.

We rented an alto sax and the nicest guy ever explained what my son would need. When you rent an instrument for the school year, you pay in full up front. The guy made it clear that you won't pay a penalty if it's past the May deadline because schools have end of the year concerts etc. Near the end of the year we got a card in the mail telling us if we paid for next years rental we could keep the instrument over the summer for free. We did that. Also, a rental includes a yearly "tune up". While the sax was in the shop, our son announced he needed it TODAY for school. Of course. I called the store and talked to the woman who was repairing it. "Oh I'm working on it now, I could have it for you in 20 mins." Perfect
