From the reviews
Such a great store. The family went there for a single trumpet, but we left with more. Owner was such a nice guy and helped my son try out trumpets until he was happy. Also educated us while we went through the different brands. Picked up a used guitar, but will be back for more. A+
I love this place. I needed music therapy in my life and I began with Ukulele lessons here and moved on to the guitar. Quentin is my teacher and he is fantastic. I also buy all my equipment here and the owner and his staff have been wonderful.
I liked it! I went in with a broken bass we bought there and he let me trade it out for another that wasn't broken. I think the owners nice and helpful. 4 stars definetly!
My son and I come here for lessons and absolutely love this place. The owner is extremely friendly, helpful, and fair. A good person and a cool shop.
Lessons at Instrument Exchange
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Instrument Exchange. 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 on hand for exactly this reason.
