From the reviews
I recently purchased a Fender FMT HH custom from an online retail store. I was disappointed because this new guitar wouldn't stay in tune. I spoke with Christian, Music and Arts awesome repair technician. He assessed the situation and knew exactly which locking tuners to purchase.
Great music store! Lots of sheet music to choose from and they have just about anything you need for your musical instrument needs! Rental options for new instruments are easy and affordable!
Stopped in and a lovely gentleman helped me. Most small music stores have HORRID customer service skills and I end up going to big box retailers like Guitar Center. I'm actually looking forward to doing business with this location. Much love and respect to all there.
I was in the market for a new set of drums recently and Miranda got me all setup. She exhibited great customer service, answered all of my questions and provided for an excellent buying experience by suggesting a drum set that met my needs. I would suggest stopping in to check them out!
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.
