From the reviews
I am currently taking guitar lessons here. My teacher and the entire staff are very friendly and have the patience of Saints. They have a deep appreciation of music as well as a love for music and teaching.
Everyone at off the wall music are absolutely delightful! Everyone is knowledgeable about just about every aspect of what they do there and if the don’t know they will quickly figure it out. I personally take guitar lessons and have had one of my foster children take piano lessons and was very pleased with both!
The staff are very friendly and eager to help! Our church recently inquired about upgrading our pads and Andrew walked me through the options and even offered to help me set up Mainstage after hours, for free! I took him up on it. Thanks Andrew for all the help and support!
Great store! The people are really welcoming and knowledgeable about all things music. They have a great selection of quality instruments and equipment and the teachers I've had lessons with are easy to learn from and good at what they do.
Selling or trading gear at OTW Music
OTW Music comes up for buying and trading used gear — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the trip go better. First, bring the whole package: the case or gig bag, the original tremolo arm or bridge parts, the paperwork if you have it — a complete rig is worth real money more than a bare instrument, and it saves the back-and-forth of "can you bring the case in?" Second, know that trade credit almost always beats the cash offer, usually by a healthy margin — if you're upgrading anyway, price your old gear as a trade against the new one before you take cash. Either way, expect the offer to be below what the gear sells for on the wall; the gap is the store's margin for setup, warranty, and sitting on it until the right buyer walks in.
Lessons at OTW Music
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at OTW 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.
