From the reviews
I went in there to see if they carried replacement pads for my headphones, they helped me figure out what I needed but they did not have them in stock. They offered to special order them (for free!) and price match with a website who had them for slightly cheaper.
This place is awesome. I love coming here. The staff here are super awesome and are very helpful. They are all great. The store has a good selection of goods and they always had what I needed. Will definitely come back again and again.
Love these guys! Hank set my cello up with mechanical pegs this winter and it stays in tune so nice now! Picked up a new guitar book and amp yesterday, the staff was friendly and knowledgeable as always.
John helped me today with fast and experienced knowledge. I brought in a power amp for some passive speakers I have at home. I've only ever used plug and play active speakers and told john I didn't know exactly what I needed to power the Amplifier to my speakers. He was very detailed in his explanation!
Lessons at Matanuska Music
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Matanuska 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 and rentals on hand for exactly this reason.
