    I enjoy playing music very much, although I play more for catharsis than for proceeds. While I…read morewon't be selling out any stadiums in this life, I did have some old musical instruments to sell. My desire for cash is what led me Music Go Round. Music Go Round, located in Castleton, is an independently owned franchise. Its independent ownership gives it a mom-and-pop feel, where the patron feels truly appreciated. The store carries a wide array of new and (mostly) used musical equipment. While the business is very guitar-dominated, the customer can find basses, keyboards, drums, banjos, and ukuleles - and all the accompanying equipment. If you're looking for that gently used Gibson Les Paul, Music Go Round will sell it to you at a better price than Guitar Center will. The selling process at Music Go Round is simple, straightforward, and honest. In my case, I sold a very nice banjo I no longer played, as well as an inexpensive electric guitar. The store owner diligently checked the banjo's specific model (which was not a simple task), looked at its selling pice on Reverb, and made me a fair offer. I was given another fair offer on the guitar. Once the deal was complete, off I went with a check and lots of memories of my banjo pickin' days. Whether you're looking to buy or sell (or both), Music Go Round is your place. Check 'em out.

    There's the salesman there named Don. He's been with the company since they opened here in…read moreIndianapolis. This review is about him. Today, 3/2/2026, I went there to place an order for an item. Don was on the phone helping a customer and at the same time helping a customer physically there in front of him. And politely told me that he'll be with me shortly. What I noticed is, while on the phone, he was explaining to a customer something about the fretboard on his guitar. He spoke calmly with specific instructions to the customer and calmly gave the customer reassurance about how to handle his situation. When he finished with the customer on the phone and finished up with the customer that was in front of me, he was not angry or bothered and greeted me with a smile. In less than 10 minutes, my order was taken and I was on my way. This is called "attention to detail". If GC had 5 more employees like Don, it would be a much better place to shop. Somebody give this guy a raise!

    The store seems to be understaffed…read more I went in to the store on a random weekday - non peak times specifically looking to talk to someone about getting a guitar and find out what I would need as a new player, braced to spend quite a bit of money. I was never greeted, and no one asked me if I needed help. I'm generally pretty patient and understanding if a retail place is busy, however after about 30-40 minutes of no contact, and no chance of contact, I gave up and left. The associates were on the phone talking to customers the entire time I was in the store, with absolutely no chance to engage or even check out even if I had known exactly what I wanted. Furthermore, the line to get to speak to someone never diminished, and only increased over time. I was behind 2 other people in line when I got there, and the line didn't move at all. By the time I left there were like 9 folks waiting in line and/or meandering around the front counter waiting for the staff to be able to assist them with checking out. I dunno what I should be expecting in this industry, but this felt like a massive waste of time to me.

    I learned that Martin had released a new mahogany guitar (the D-17) and I really wanted to play one…read moreto see if I might want to trade one of my Martins to buy one, or perhaps even buy one outright. I found out there was one in the area, located at Reno's Music. I had never heard of this establishment before but I saw on their website that they have a lot of Martin guitars in their inventory. So when my husband and I were in the general neighborhood, we decided to stop in and have a look. This turned out to be a really bad idea. I have been playing guitar for 55 years and my husband also for nearly as long. My father was an Indianapolis jazz guitarist who will be inducted into the Indianapolis Jazz Hall Of Fame in 2026. I have been visiting guitar stores since I was a little girl, and never have I been treated so rudely EVER. There was one guy working there, and zero customers. Most guitar shops are lively, upbeat places filled with music but this was basically an office with a storeroom of what looked to be a zillion boxed-up guitars. I asked this person if he had a D-17 because I was interested in playing one. He launched into this gatekeeper routine that would have made my father laugh with scorn and then turn around and head straight out the door. This guy said, "First we're going to have a little conversation". What??? I thought this was a business and I just wanted to see a guitar! He wanted to know our names. I thought wtf? Our names won't mean anything to you? But I gave them, first and last, and then he replied that his name was Mark. Okay fine, whatever. Do you play? he wanted to know. Okay, why would I even be in a place like that if I didn't play? I was playing before this guy was even thought of! Well, after I replied yes, we both do, he condescended to let me try the guitar. It was a very nice guitar but I had already made up my mind that I would not be buying a $1 kazoo off this guy. I played one more guitar there and we left. Needless to say, I will take my money and my business elsewhere. I am still in the market for a high-end Martin but thankfully there are many other guitar stores in the Indianapolis area that are far more welcoming and treat their customers like they want their business - NOT like they are doing them some kind of a favor just letting them in the door. I've seen other reviews left by people who had much the same experience with Reno's Music, so it wasn't just us, it's how this place is, unfortunately.

    Great store and had a fascinating talk with the owner. I'll stop in again when in Indianapolis.read more

    They managed to delete my review from Google, so here it is:…read more 5/2/25 Well, I should have known better. I really wanted to do business with a local music store. Been in several times before, owner didn't make me feel real welcome, but thought I would give it another chance. Stopped by on the way home looking for a practice guitar amp. Had looked at prices online different brand. Zane Franklin, "The Prince/Sales Manager" helped me (out of my money). Said, "I have a used Blackstar ID Core 40 V2 that I can get you a deal on" of course we all like deals, so I said ok. He brought it in the room and said "I can get this for you for the same price as the Blackstar ID Core 20 V4, $229. Being bigger and better (I assumed, bad move) I liked the sound of it, thought why not, I'll take it. Made the mistake of googling the amp after I made the purchase. The V2 is obsolete, and the V4, brand new sells for $229, the price I paid for a used amp. Never buy something from Zane that you don't know the price of elsewhere. He made sure he had me sign the receipt, and of course I wasn't paying attention to the words right above my signature "ALL SALES FINAL NO REFUNDS". I claim responsibility for being taken advantage of, it's what happens when you are in a hurry. There won't be a second time. I will go to Guitar Center or drive to Fort Wayne and go to Sweetwater. Thanks Zane, you got me. ***UPDATE**** My google review was not deleted, google did not post it due to it having a link in it. Once I deleted the link it was immediately posted. Now the good part, 12 minutes after posting, Zane called me and apologized for the mistake he had made regarding the sale price and refunded a reasonable amount of the purchase price. Thank you Zane for making this right!
