Ryder greeted us, and was super helpful and patient while he looked at pretty much every option. When he wanted to play one he liked, Alexei came over and played a bit so he could get a sense of the sound. They were both fantastic and helpful! We would recommend this music store to anyone who is looking for just about any instrument, and I think they have rentals as well. You should also make time to say hello to the sweet tuxedo kitty "Callie" while you're there too.

My daughter has taken weekly piano lessons with Danielle for several years now and plays the piano…read moreabsolutely beautifully. Danielle has her teaching style down to a "T" because every recital I've been too has little musicians who truly enjoy playing and don't see it as chore. I think that is extremely telling of her ability as a teacher to encourage, motivate, and challenge her students. Studio is part of a historic building in downtown Gainesville and renders itself to a more cozy feeling which is not intimidating for the beginner and warm and inviting for the more experienced. All ages of music students are welcome!

This tactic has worked great and we have fun in the process. Admittedly, this has turned into a very expensive undertaking. My husband found Righteous Guitars on YouTube back in 2019. They featured a Mario Martin electric that he just HAD to have! Ever since, I've been dying to get him to the store in person. It seemed that every time we were passing near Roswell, it was the wrong day or time. Yesterday we finally made it! The store has a private, intimate feeling since the front doors are locked. The interior is breathtakingly beautiful and slightly visually overwhelming. I adore the artistic design and look of guitars and basses. This was a feast for the eyes and ears. Top notch service which was attentive and personalized. I lounged in the comfortable gliding chairs while my spouse spent a few hours trying various instruments. He fell in love with a Fender p bass but ultimately opted to wait. I have a feeling he'll be on the phone in a day or two placing an order. We will definitely be returning to Righteous Guitars and keeping an eye on their inventory. If you're a musician or guitar player, this place is a must-visit!

Inside a trio of artists were playing various pieces adding a cool vibe to the store. I spent a few minutes checking out the new and used guitars, and was approached for assistance. They also have a room with new and used cases and amps, I picked up a couple of Larry Daniel's guitar class (learning) booklets, as I'm relearning guitar. They look to be well written and easy to follow alone or with an instructor. They have a good selection of strings and provide advice, instruction, and more. Check out their Facebook page too. If you're local, check out this spot before driving across town.

My 11 year-old daughter has been taking singing lessons from Michelle for about two years now…read more Michelle has done some wonderful work with her. She keeps her interested and has helped her progress while keeping things simple and fun. She's abke to find contemporary music that challenges her and expands on her current skill level. My daughter has developed a sense of confidence with her singing and in time I hope she chooses to perform publicly. I have already referred Michelle to a few friends and I would gladly refer her to more.

Luckiest thing that has happened to us in long time! From the moment we stepped into the store we were treated like rock stars, and the energy in the place is amazing! Everyone who works there is not only very knowledgable, but they all have a palpable passion for music and community. We have bought a couple of instruments here, had those instruments serviced and modified, and both of us have started lessons. Neither of us have had anything but great experiences at this store.

The staff is friendly, the shelves are well stocked, and they have a wide variety of music books and materials for piano. Anything they don't have they can order for your or get transferred from another store. It usually arrives within a few days and they are very conscientious about calling to let you know it arrived in the store for pick-up. If there is a specific song you are looking for they will search it online and print it right there in the store for you. They also have many good sales throughout the year. I have recommended the full-size digital pianos to my students and have always been pleased with the quality. Many times you can get full-size digital pianos for $400, which is a great deal for the decent quality. However, keep in mind that the staff works on commission so they will try and sell you the more expensive item. Listen to your music teacher, and get what they recommend, not the sales people. They have material for both ABRSM and NFMC Federated Festival. They are also very supportive of the local music teachers association. On a regular basic they provide hospitality and refreshments for our monthly meetings. Several of my high school students have also worked there over the summer. I like that they are good at hiring temporary summer help. The only thing to be cautious of is renting instruments. I have never rented so I don't have personal experience, but I have heard stories from my students renting instruments for band or orchestra. Make sure you know all the details of the contract you're signing and read all the fine print.
