What's on the wall
“He can make adjustments and repairs that other technicians don't know about because they don't understand the instrument's acoustics.”
“An accomplished flutist, he also gave our daughter a tutorial lesson on the flute.”
“Kurt performed acoustical adjustments on a trumpet for me and made sure I was satisfied with the transaction.”
What players say again and again
“The owner is extremely personable, knowledgeable and is a business I have no problem supporting by patronage.”
“I had gotten a great deal on the horn, but it had been terribly neglected by the previous owner, and arrived in an unplayable state.”
From the reviews
I’m actually posting this just for the character of Kurt Heisig. I’ve always heard about his reputation of being a great percussionist, but I needed help with my electric guitar. Sure enough he told me the best place to go for the most experienced guitar person.
We loved this shop. The owner was very helpful and knowledgeable about many kinds of music. An accomplished flutist, he also gave our daughter a tutorial lesson on the flute. We bought our daughter's latest flute from this shop.
Kurt did a great job of overhauling the Selmer Series 9 clarinet I purchased on eBay. I had gotten a great deal on the horn, but it had been terribly neglected by the previous owner, and arrived in an unplayable state.
Kurt won't sell anything in his store that he doesn't consider a worthy instrument to help a player develop and be the best they can be. He can make adjustments and repairs that other technicians don't know about because they don't understand the instrument's acoustics. Horns and woodwinds are his thing.
Lessons at Kurt Heisig Music
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Kurt Heisig Music. 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.
