I honestly am blown away by our experience here today... all because of the guy who helped us,…read moreJosh. He was absolutely wonderful, beyond helpful, very kind and patient. Like he was genuinely just wonderful and it didn't feel like a transaction was taking place at all. You can really tell he is passionate about instruments, and extremely knowledgeable (not in a annoying way) on the products.. specifically, guitars. The store is pretty big and they carry pretty much everything with a wide range of choices and brands. Speakers, amps , keyboards, tons of string instruments, drum sets, bongos, Taylor, Gibson, the list is vast...huge selection but not too much to overwhelm you. It's also all arranged in a way, you can see it all and know where to go. Like they put some thought into it.. The staff were all very helpful and nice. Today was special, my daughter has been saving her $$ for a while now and decided to buy herself a Taylor guitar. Josh made this a breeze and once he led her into the acoustic room, she just followed her heart. I can't say enough good things about this experience. My sweet 14 year old couldn't of left here with any bigger of a smile. Josh changed out her strings, shined her Taylor up, hooked us up with a re-chargeable tuner, a strap and a case.. and he made my daughters day even better when he gave her a discount ! He also knew a lot of interesting things about the Taylor brand and was giving us some super cool info/history on Taylor guitars, and their founder.. how he is working to conserve different trees, wood, etc. for the material to continue to supply their company to continue to run smoothly for years and years to come. We are looking forward to our next trip back. Thank you Josh for making this day truly special for her and for letting me snap a pic of you & her purchase... She worked and saved hard for this and I thank you for making this even more so!

I planned on purchasing another 3k worth of equipment from them when I came to pick it up. When I asked the guy on the phone he responded "absolutely not we will turn it away or throw it away" with an attitude. Lost a life time big spending customer because you just wont accept a package. GC gets tons of packages everyday doesn't even make sense to be an issue. Another guitar store gladly did it and said "I'll do anything to help my customers" so he's getting my money and a lifetime of loyalty instead. Terrible business practice.

The owner actually grabbed a new guitar strap, strings, cord and pics off the shelf and through them into the guitar case for me! No extra charge. Small shop with a big heart. Thanks!!!

(It's a bit behind the times for me.) The owner is a pilot who isn't usually open, but knows his stock and is respectful of other musicians. Children are not welcome to play in the store (nor should they be). Some vintage pieces by Ventura County Vintage hang in the center of the store. Lots of pretty acoustic guitars, Diamond, Boogie, and MESA cabinets, as well as Marshall, Fender, soldano, and hiwatt. Play your pick in the "room of doom", with some incredible collectible and unique speakers. His collection of cabinets and amps is worth a look, just for conversation!

This is the one and only place in Memphis to find a new Yamaha piano. In fact, this is the largest…read moreYamaha dealer in several states. this is not the typical piano store where the instruments are just average. This is the best of the best. I just played a nine foot concert grand!! There were only three of them in the store!! Imagine three incredible pianos in the same room. That's not to mention the grands, babies, and uprights. I come here quite often. Its a neat place to hang out. You can meet some really incredible talent if you're here at the right time. There are used and new, starters and upgrades. The only thing you wouldn't find here is a junk fixer upper. And that's just pianos!! There is a room full of electronic digital pianos. Another room of player pianos. Another room with organs. Another room with keyboards!! And this is only half the store. What does it matter how many rooms there are? You can play till your hearts content without it interfering with anyone else's day!! That's right, this store is truly hands on. After all, who would you expect to buy something so important, with so many choices to make, without test driving all the equipment?? I've been to other stores that expect just that. I've never been kicked out of circle music for playing to loud or to hard, or asked to stop. They may ask you to stop if you suck, but they haven't asked me!! So circle music has killer pianos, lots of room, and you get to manipulate some sound waves, but what else do they have? A killer guitar shop, of course!! Les Paul and Martin dealers!! Just like the pianos, don't expect to see ordinary guitars here that you might find in a pawn shop. This is the place to find special guitars. The unique, the extraordinary, the extreme, and the ultra killer, this is definitely it. There are a few drums, but this is by no means a drum shop. Maybe they just prefer to cater to musicians instead. Ok, that was cold!! Also, this is not a PA and lighting store. And don't expect much recording gear either. It is simply not what they do. Instead, they chose to be the best at what they do, which is piano and guitar. There are school band instruments as well, and available for rent. There are practice rooms as well. There are teachers eager to share their knowledge with any musical instrument you may choose. There are teachers for children and adult, and they are good. There is a library dedicated to sheet music. They even have a librarian!! This store happens to be part of the same family as lane music in Germantown. Because of the incredible service I've received there,I will remain loyal to their business. Since these two stores share ownership, it's really not like cheating is it? Well, is it?? Chuck is the manager here. Him and Ron just seem like my best friend every time I see them. They know I have a brand new piano and that I plan to keep it a few years, but I never get that vibe that they don't want me there. I'd say that's the most important thing that sets them apart. So, pianos, guitars, teachers, friendly managers, sheet music,a killer building, and room to explore. Pretty awesome. Is that it? But wait, there's more!! There is a killer recital room with seating designed for 70 people. Ron told me they have had 80 people though. The best piano in the store is always on the stage, and it does get sold quite frequently. You can book a concert here. This is the place for a recital or concert. And if you or your kids are taking lessons here, you or they will get to experience performing for an audience. It is an essential part of becoming a musician. Chuck, Ron, and Scott, thank you so much!!

We began looking for a new piano to replace my near 70-year old one. Lane was the last place we…read morevisited and should have been the first. Lane has a sizeable collection of new & used pianos of all sizes, styles, and prices. Chuck Taylor knows his stuff. He encouraged me to play as many as I wanted without rushing us. He respected our budget and knowledgeably answered our questions. We felt very comfortable in working with him. Chuck went out of his way to have a tuner come in and work his magic on a new as-yet-untuned piano just so we could better judge the quality of the piano we ultimately purchased. Offered a great price, with a warranty, delivery/set up, full trade-in value, and removal of our old piano. He and piano mover Peyton were prompt and efficient in delivery. It was the kind of purchase that we felt good about, no doubts at all, and complete confidence in both Chuck and Lane Music. Glad we ended up there, as we ended our search with the best selection, value and service.
