From the reviews

My son has been coming to Jamey for lessons for about 3 months. Jamey really takes the time to explain everything to him. The staff is friendly and make you feel welcome. I wholeheartedly recommend Music Lessons Inc. to anyone looking for lessons or equipment.

Ms. Susan is a lovely person and teacher. Excellent place for music lessons or instruments.

I've passed Carter's Music Center many times and never stopped by until a couple of weeks ago. My brother Rick recommended to check this place out. I'm glad I did! I met David, electronics technician, and he is very knowledgeable and recommended some new changes to my kit build Strat.

They offer almost any kind of music lessons you want. Their supplies are a little expensive but I figure its because its located in a small town.
