From the reviews
This store is a real asset to our area. My son recently began learning guitar so I decided to dust off an old guitar I had bought decades ago only to then put on the shelf. It needed professional attention to bring it back to life.
Excellent little music store that somehow has everything you need and offers lessons too! The people that work there really know their stuff and are super friendly and helpful. They have a ton of different guitars, electric and acoustic to choose from and even have areas in the shop for you to try them out.
Excellent store! I was looking for something local instead of going to the big box music store. This place has just about everything you need and Dennis was very helpful. I purchased a really nice electric guitar and I am very happy with my purchase. Looking forward to starting lessons in a few weeks.
Great store with quality products. One of the few small businesses in the area that sells different types of instruments. They also offer lessons with qualified instructors. Definitely check this place out if you need anything musically related!
Lessons at Jacobs Music Center
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Jacobs Music Center. 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.
