I'd been stopping in to MSM for years and was just waiting to find the right amp when one day I…read morestop in and there is this fantastic little Acoustic amp w inputs for guitar and mic. Great price. While I'm testing the amp I look up and see an Explorer w upgraded EMG pickups. John let me try it and wow...it's a growler and loud. No case for it but John made up for it w a few extras. Thanks, John!

We were looking for a guitar for my 7 year old grandson. We were thinking of getting a half size…read moreguitar. I called & they told me they had one & that it was used & also gave me the price. We went down to look at it. After seeing him with the guitar, my son (who plays guitar well) thought the guitar might be a little too small. We asked what the guy helping us thought. He honestly told us he thought a three quarter guitar would be a better choice. He did not have any but sent us to a nearby shop he said might have one. That is great customer service.

I soldiered on for a few more months with online, but ended up having to stop until May of 2022. Now, I'm taking lessons with Jameson White at the Garner store, and I've had nothing but a mind-blowing experience with every lesson. I even took bass guitar lessons with Grady, and he is awesome too. The staff are friendly, caring, accommodating, and very knowledgeable. I never feel odd for being a 52 year-old guy learning music as a beginner. My only regret is that it took so long for me to wake up to the universe of music! Could not recommend Music and Arts highly enough!

I got it for a great price, and when it came it had some minor damage around the bottom strap nut. Dave took a look at some pictures I took, and refunded me $100!

I haven't been in every "guitar shop" in Raleigh. I would…read morevisit other shops but I don't have a reason for it. I met Harry Tueting the year he opened Harry's Guitars on Glenwood Avenue near downtown Raleigh. I bought strings and played new guitars I could not buy- no steady job. Still I had a clunker to bang on. I took lessons from Steve Howell in the early years. I met Terry Dineen when he began some years later. He was just a kid but he knew a lot more about guitars than I did. I'd played since I was 12, on cheap guitars, but I played. Thanks to the things I learned through visiting this business, I've developed into a modestly decent player. I've met musicians of every skill level in a place where I feel welcome. I've listened to people crank the amps and play for HOURS. No one ever objected. I know and understand the value of a good guitar. I've bought -and returned- guitars from Harry's. Nobody complained. I read the bad reviews given herein and I am STUNNED. Perhaps the reviewers are (1) upset because they did something out of ignorance and can't get over it or (2) have an ax to grind because they weren't regarded as royalty or (3) are simply mean spirited. I cannot in any way associate anyone I know, or have known, at Harry's Guitars with the ugliness I read in those "reviews". Not under Harry's watch. Not under Scott and Mike's watch. Not in the real world.

There used to be four great music stores here and now we are down to one, and luckily, they are hanging in there. Harry has actually retired but the employees are still there. I always steer my students there since you can get a decent uke for just over $100. Then you can take your time to get a better uke once you are sure you want to get better. If you don't get their complete attention, it usually means they are dealing with a difficult customer, but they will get to you.
