From the reviews
I truly appreciate the staff at Brass Bell! Our children have experienced effective lessons in piano and saxophone. Before purchasing a piano for our home, our older son practiced in the studio rooms while an enrolled BB student.
Quite a variety of instruments available at this store. Guitar, bass guitar, drums, band / orchestra, etc. Not a huge selection in each category though. Guitarists in particular may be underwhelmed at the in-store selection so they’re probably better served by one of the many other stores that feature those more…
We've used Brass Bell for all our student band needs, and it's always been a great experience. They are super friendly and helpful and have always made sure we have exactly what we need. The store is also a beautiful space. I believe they offer lessons for certain instruments as well.
My first visit to Brass Bell Music was EXCELLENT! I met with Mark and Joel who both assisted me with my cymbal and drumstick questions. I even asked if I could test a cymbal or two in one of their soundproof 'lessons' rooms...no problem! Very helpful and very accommodating! I also purchased a Jumbie Jam steel drum.
Lessons at Brass Bell Music Store
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Brass Bell Music Store. 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.
