From the reviews
Rush's music has been around for many years. They are currently the premier place for band instruments and related music and gear in our area. They also have guitars and accessories as well. I went here to find recital music for my students. They carry a wide selection. They also carry my Flutiful line of books.
They have a good selection of drum sticks but they sell Yamaha guitars which aren't the best but are pretty good the employees are nice and they have an awsome selection of marching band stuff and brass instruments and drum sticks
Extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and charismatic (not obnoxious) staff. Basically the antithesis of Guitar Center. They don't have a ton of guitars on the floor, but they can order whatever you need. There may even be stuff in the back. I didn't inquire, as what I was looking for at the time, they had out.
Rush’s music is awesome! I play the flute in my school band and i’ve never had a problem with renting or getting repairs! My current flute a Yamaha Advantage 200 AD II, and it’s amazing!
Lessons at Rush's Music
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Rush's 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.
