What's on the wall
“Steve was very helpful in showing me not only the Cannonball choices but the many used saxophones they had on hand.”
“I used to go to another music store in Wheatfield for my saxophone accessories and repairs but the owner retired and closed the store.”
“Lessons are available for any instrument and Ben Boyar the owner specializes in wind instrument repairs.”
“His wife gives piano lessons in the shop, I'm definitely going to take advantage!”
“Only went initially to buy a violin, but will definitely be coming back for maintenance & supplies for my other instruments.”

From the reviews
Great customer service from friendly knowledgeable staff! I got my daughter her instrument for a better price than even Amazon! (And I get everything from Amazon) but for such a big important purchase, I am glad I went here. Ben was super helpful.
I was interested in possibly purchasing a Cannonball tenor saxophone to add to my Cannonball alto. Steve was very helpful in showing me not only the Cannonball choices but the many used saxophones they had on hand. I was able to try out the saxophone I was interested in and then purchased.
Amazing little music store with a wonderful, low key, and patient staff. They fixed up a very old and banged up Tenor Saxophone for a reasonable price with a speedy turn around. It plays amazing now! Good prices on supplies too. Got my alto saxophone up and running for a good price. Highly recommend
Ben Boyar is amazing with kids! My daughter loves her lesson time & has learned a lot. Would highly recommend for purchases, rentals & lessons :)
Lessons at Northtown Music
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Northtown 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.
