From the reviews
4/25 update Found some good deals on Fender guitars, basses, and amplifiers for my school's music program. Also Excited to see what Ernie Ball Music Man basses they bring in. New Laney Amps sounded good too. Great service, Collid and Don know their stuff. They helped me pick a good practice amp.
Super nice, and expertly helpful. Brought my bass in for warranty repair. I didn't purchase it from them, nor was it a brand they sell. Yet, with the proper documentation, they agreed happily to accept it for repair. Edward said he wanted to check it out before I headed back home (30 miles one way).
I came into the store really nervous not really knowing what I was looking for. It was my first time honestly. But a nice young gentleman came to me with a warm smile and lead me to the back of the store, where I would eventually find what I was looking for. Yes the perfect guitar.
Brady, the luthier for string instruments, was fantastic! He deserves a 8 star rating. I brought my daughter's cello in for a fallen sound post. He treated us with respect, even though she doesn't have the most expensive cello.
Lessons at American Music Co
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at American Music Co. 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.
