From the reviews
I've been taking guitar lessons under Steve Wong since 12/22/19 - I'm 33 so a late beginner - and I love this place. Steve is an excellent teacher. He is simultaneously guiding me through the fundamentals while incorporating the direction that I'd like to go with my style.
I started piano lessons 5 weeks ago with Gracie. She already has me so far along. I never thought I could do it, but Gracie has made it so easy to understand and learn. We move along much quicker than I anticipated but we never move on till she knows I understand all of the rules and material.
The staff here is great and their prices are also good. We have been going here for the last year or so and have made major purchases as well as sent my daughters flute out for repairs. Every time we have had a great experience and they even helped us out with a loaner flute while my daughters was being repaired.
Great customer service at this place. I worked with Curtis and Michael and they both were pleasant and will go above and beyond to work with you to get what you need done. It looks like they also offered lessons, they have educational books and a decent supply of all different instruments.
Lessons at Music & Arts
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Music & Arts. 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.
