What's on the wall
“I trust that they won't rip me off during repairs like a stereotypical sleazy car repairman charging for headlight fluid.”
“I've had both clarinet and violin lessons at Adams and both of those teachers were very helpful teachers as well.”
“Rented a banjo here for a week, great prices and it was an easy process.”
“The service, whether Garrett or his associate the young brass officionado, is consistently kind, knowledgeable, and price points are reasonable.”
What players say again and again

“Pricing was also very fair - feels like a great deal to have my flute restored to a like-new condition.”
From the reviews
Depending how, when or who you contact to, you got a different pricing for the same item. I needed my violin restrung with Dominant strings and was quoted over the phone by staff-G for $65 including installation. Two days later in that weekend, I was asked in the store by staff-R to pay $92 for the same job.
Sean and Garrett (hope those names are right!) were absolutely fantastic. I was visiting town and received a very last-minute request to play a saxophone session.
So glad I found this place! Small store but as is typical if small places, the staff was super friendly and helpful. I got all my clarinet needs taken care of here. I got to try out some new Vandoren reeds as well as their supply of mouthpieces before purchasing.
I've been going here since 8th grade (going to college now) and I've never had a bad experience. These people are friendly, easy to work with, and very knowledgeable. I trust that they won't rip me off during repairs like a stereotypical sleazy car repairman charging for headlight fluid.
Lessons at Adam's Music
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Adam's Music. If you're signing up a beginner (or restarting yourself), a quick call ahead answers the three things that matter: which instruments they teach, whether the schedule has openings at the time you actually need, and what a first lesson costs. There's no wrong first guitar — a good teacher will happily work with whatever you walk in with, and a shop that teaches usually keeps affordable starter instruments and rentals on hand for exactly this reason.
