From the reviews

I recently visited Redphish Music with my son, who needed help fixing a string on his guitar. From the moment we walked in, the staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive. They took the time to assist us with patience and expertise, ensuring everything was done perfectly.

Goldsboro doesn't have many music stores, so I was worried they would lean into that and jack prices/services up. I've worked with them for over two years now and they are incredible. They always have really good deals, and the workers always take the time to talk to you and help you with what you need.

★★★★★ — Kevin, Nov 2022

Always super helpful whenever I have questions regarding gear, different set ups and any miscellabeous questions I have. If they don't have something you need, they'll gladly ship it in from another location, which will beat online ordering 9 times outta 10. Always fast and great with repairs.

★★★★★ — Aaron, Jun 2018

Great experience! They installed some new tuners on my acoustic and I am pretty particular/picky about things being right, but they did a perfect job. A day faster than estimated and a good bit less expensive than other places that quoted me. Knowledgeable friendly staff. Couldnt ask for it to be better.
