The service is top of the line. If they don't have it, they will order it for you. I've come in with just the name of a particular piece and no composer looking for the sheet music. The staff member went out of his way not only to locate the sheet music but told me what edition was the best and the cheapest. You really can't get better than that! Highly recommend them! The company has 5 locations in Atlanta and I believe this location is their largest. It's about 0.3 miles north of the Big Chicken https://goo.gl/maps/xJMbRgwavRxephbY8 in a shopping plaza called North 41 Plaza https://goo.gl/maps/yGoYbVMSR8rns7dV7 There is also an Office Depot https://goo.gl/maps/iHJ2mCFBTcah3jCR9 North Tool and Equipment https://goo.gl/maps/iBTMTfFeZLkDAHk16 and Value Village Thrift Store https://goo.gl/maps/CJ3LFL1MBwqZ2xSd9

The selection in the store is good. But they have some big corporate issues. The phone system…read moregives an open message when the store is closed. Google hours are incorrect. There is no voice mail. Service phone often rings for 20 rings (gave up after then) and never is answered. The people in the store know about these problems, but the corporate office does nothing to fix it. The corporate call center went so far as to tell me they couldn't control the hours on Google. What? Again, less than stellar workers. Also, personnel is not properly trained. ie: I was told I could get a flute repair done in a week, then I found out it was a month...after I flew to the USA with my flute from another country. So, I bought a new flute. I asked the service department to check it over completely as I did not live in the USA and wanted to make sure there were no issues. Note this was a rather expensive silver flute. They gave it to me saying it was perfect. Well, it wasn't! The interior was filthy...used. The f# key leaks. I am flying back to the USA. It took me 12 phone calls including 2 useless calls to the call center before I could speak to someone. I was promised a call back from the call center in 40 minutes. Never called. Bottom line is, good selection, knowledgeable sales people, lousy service and not the brightest in the call center. I think some of the staff is good at some of the stores, but really, they need training.

I had not been to Dirt Cheep Music in over 30 years (no kidding!) and I had been keeping my eyes open for a small, solid state guitar amp that I could leave at a remote location for playing in case I got bored there.

Steve put me on an 80's model Peavey Bandit, made in USA, and perfect for what I need for under $90. Exactly what I needed and it was indeed Dirt Cheep. THANKS STEVE!!!!

I'm not the best at practicing all the time and as a child I was notorious for quitting extracurriculars (classic Millennial). Well, almost a year later, I'm dedicated to my weekly lessons with Nick. His studio is an intimate space for fostering creativity and collaboration, and I can't say enough about his teaching style. He is encouraging, patient, talented, and depending on what you'd like to learn, he can run through heavy music theory or help you figure out how to play your own stuff. He really tailors lessons around your own goals. I brought in some difficult starter music and instead of telling me to start with something easier, he helped me pick it apart and take it piece by piece so I could eventually play what I wanted. I highly recommend Sound Space and hope to see Nick's business grow - it's so incredibly inspiring seeing someone so passionate about what he does (and a wonderful person, to boot) become a blossoming success at his dream. So well deserved; I'm privileged to be a part of it.

I moved here from Detroit in 1981 when I was 17 and I would walk a mile or two just to sit in the guitar room and play guitars and different amps and knew I got the best deal on the best gear. Here I am 45 YEARS LATER still stopping by to say hello and check out the gear. This is definitely my favorite music store not only because the gear is always accessible and priced right, but because Robert and Marilyn have ALWAYS greeted me with a smile. It's nice to just stop by and talk "music shop" with them knowing whatever my music needs are, they will make sure I get what I came for. THANK YOU Sound Associates and THANK YOU Robert and Marilyn for being the friendliest, most reliable music store I know of.

It had been sitting, unloved and unwanted for a few weeks. I don't understand it- it should have been snatched up already. Pristine, US made, amazing price. But there she was, the wallflower needing a nice guy to dance with. I had to have her. The staff was great to work with. They let me use any amp I wanted, didn't hassle me on volume, even complimented a few of my licks. When it was time for purchase, they gave me a very fair trade value (exceeding the next closest GC by $150), got me out the door quickly, reminded me of the 45 day try out period, and wished me well. The Tele is a dream. I'm super happy. But this has been my typical experience with this GC location. They often have a good selection of used gear (though it's a bit sparse post the Memorial Day used gear blow out). And even when a little short staffed, they are polite.
