From the reviews
Great service from the moment you walk in. They have practice room to try out flutes and I spent almost an hour last time trying out several models and price ranges. I like the way they organize their sheet music; both by instrument and by genre (see photos).
I was in Burlington from out of town on business, and dropped by to take a quick peek and see what they had. Although I didn't stay for too long since the store was about to close for the day, I did browse for a bit.
Great store, great prices, awesome staff and ownership! Staff was extremely helpful in picking out a new guitar, and in fact stayed past closing hours to make sure my new guitar was perfect! Have purchased many products here before and have always had nothing but great experiences! Thanks HH!
Went to Hugo Helmer today to purchase a guitar. Initially I was seeking the street master made by Martin Guitars and was greeted by Daniel. Played it and loved it. Called my wife but she was not supportive of me spending close to 2k on a instrument.
Lessons at Hugo Helmer Music, Inc.
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Hugo Helmer Music, Inc.. 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.
