From the reviews
Carl is your man! I instantly relate no matter what we talk about. This is the guy that you can walk in and talk guitars or drums and end up talking about drag racing all in the same conversation. I definitely feel the family based vibe every time I walk in the store.
So today we are picking up Baileys drum set she is so excited and Carl one of the managers at music and art in riverside pit it together for us and will go over it all after her drum lessons I highly recommend music and art in riverside, Carl has always helped and explains everything for us great service we thank you…
My experience at Music and Arts was awsome, and the people were very friendly! I highly recommend this store! They had every type of guitar I could think of when I was there shopping. They even gave me a free guitar tuner because of their memorial day special! They replace guitar strings as well.
Thus far we've had great experiences with them. I bought a guitar for myself and a loved one and we're taking lessons there. The instructor has been awesome. The staff is very friendly and informative.
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.
